Cambridge merchants report that
business is unusually good this year,
the demand for the holiday goods
exceeding anything of the kind they
have ever known. One reason for
this is probably the fact that the
local stores are noted for carrying
good goods, which they sell at rea-
sonable prices.
On account of the fact that
Christmas Day comes this year on
Wednesday, the public school holt
days will probably be a little long
er than usual, starting on the goth
of December and lasting until the
9Th of January. While the School
Commissioners have not definitely
deciueo upon this time, it seems
likely they will do so, as the ma
jority of the other counties of the
State are doing so. In the event
they do so, the teachers will be
expected to make up the additional
three days at the end of the spring
term.
