Christmas for

ST. Paul, Mimi. Dec 22-For the
lished at the head of the Mississippi
there will be no Christmas eve rush
at the big ST. Paul stores. There will
be no worn and exhausted clerks to
spend a cheerless holiday in vain
effort to accumulate strength against
the coming weeks work. Every clerk
will spend Christmas as other people
do. and there will be no holiday trade
after the close of the afternoon be-
fore Christmas. The early Christmas
eve closing movement has won. 1t
came from the people of the city as a
whole and the owner of the big stores
have fallen in line without argument.
For weeks the hardships of the big
Christmas trade upon the clerks be-
hind the downtown counters has been
live subject with many prominent
people of st. Paul, but it was not until
the Rev. J. J. Lawler of the Cathedral
Parish of the Roman Catholic church
took charge of the movement that it
began to succeed. Father Lawler con-
ferred with the owners of the big
SICIC lucy huOW Wu0l
their competitors were going to do
Father Lawler settled that point by
persuading the competitors to give
their clerks Christmas eve at home,
and at a conference he argued the
case Of the clerks before the assembl-
ed proprietors. The closing agree
ment was signed without protest and
the day was won for the clerks.
Why, it's better for the proprietors
themselves" said Father Lawler, TO
give their clerks a rest. The Christ
mas eve rush is enough to drive even
a strong man to distraction. Just
think what it means to these young
girls. tired out already with a hard
days work, and many hard days OF
work during holiday season. The pro-
prietors saw that the argument was
just and they agreed to close. There
is no reason why every store in Amer
lea should not do the same thing.
Just as much business will be done.
and just as much goods sold. Time
was when every city store was open
each evening In the week except Sun
day. Now they close and business
goes on just the same But the big
thing is that 1t is better for these
people who work to give them their
Christmas eve at home. II means
more comfort, more happiness, better
home life, and every one knows
there's none too much happiness in
the world"
