Drug Stores Closed Sunday.

The drug stores and restaurants
went the peace officers "onc better"
Sunday by closing up entirely for the
day instead Of restricting sales to
necessitioA. 1t will be remembered
that the sheriff put the ban on the
Sunday selling Of cold drinks and to-
baccos several weeks ago and that as
a result clerks and managers on Sun
days have been more ornamental than
useful The first sunday after the
blue laws" went into effect the drug
stores shortened their Sunday hours
by opening up in tho mornings only
and tho action taken Sunday vii, OF
course do away with sunday selling
cntircly. Doubtless this will meet
with the hearty approval Of the peace
officers, who have considered il very
unpleasant duty TO prevent the colo
drink ncnds from securing their Gus
tomary morning qucnchcr.
