Consumers League List
Swells With Those Who
oin Summer Hours
MOVEMENT SHOWS
ADVANCE THIS YEAR

Adv AlNOE LILO lEAN
The Consumers League announced
today that it feels that the movement
for a general summer half-holiday
has seen some advance this year. as
the following list of firms show. 1t
was said the league appreciates that
number of firms. the names OF
which do not appear on this list,
probably are providing for the hot
weather by. closing earlier each day
/ or by arranging for the individual
employees to have time of. The
league is working, however. toward
a community custom of closing,
which, It is hoped, will be so wide
spread that no one will think OF shop
ping on the summer half-holiday. For
that reason this list includes only
stores that actually are closed on one
day each week.
The league. Il was declared. appre-
ciates the cooperation of the mer-
chants in this matter and regrets that
IL probably has not succeeded in in
GLIDING all the stores that are clos
ing.
The following stores. it was an
nouneed today, are giving a summer
holiday:
