The Womens clubs Of the city
heartily endorse the early closing
movement. OF which Mr. Paul VI. Ne
meyer is the director. and congratu-
late him. and state that the movement
has long been advocated by them. but
they could not force IL because a num-
Der Of the merchants objected.
During the holiday shopping hours
Mrs. Julian G.. Hearne. president Of
the Woman's club; Mrs Guy X. G.
Allen. president of the Housewives
league. and Mrs +. G.. Ewing visited
different stores and merchants and
learned conditions there. From what

10 best To have early closing hours.
Both Mrs. Ewing and Mrs Allen
stated in behalf OF the members OF
the WOmen's club aud Housewives
league that they favor this movement.
They think 10 very humane and mer-
cliul, giving better protection for the
girls who are TO Dee our future women.
and think all who are employed will
