IT is now time for the clerks and
store-keepers to agree upon an hour at
which the places of business will close
between now an fall. A clerk that
opens a store at five or six o'clock in
the morning, has one hour noon and
stages in the store until nine or ten
o'clock at night, all for the pitiful
sum of from TWO TO FIVE DOLLARS
PER WEEK, should have some prOtec-
tion. He works from fifteen to sixteen
hours per day, for seventy-five cents,
aud boards himself. Yet there are
hundreds of boys in our town land
thousands in the country who enter
upon a clerks career, with no other
prospect in view. They certainly do
not expect to be merchants, for they
have 10 capital aud certainly can never
honestly earn enough to start from
their occupation. These same young
men and boys would be a thousand
times better off learning some trade, at
which they will make as much, or
more money, while their hours of la
Dor would only be ten hours per day.
