STILL AGITATING IT
Down Town Druggists Working on
Men Who Won't Join Them.

Down town druggists are still agi-
tating Sunday afternoon closing in
spite of the desertion from their ranks
of three prominent Kansas avenue
stores. A determined effort is being
made TO get them into the flock as
most of the druggists are working on
the principle ''all close or none"
The druggists in favor of the move
are indignant over the SCOTS of the
unsynpathetic that 'it would make
Topeka a 'hick' town"
II suppose then that Los Angeles is
a hickory village" said one prominent
druggist, cor Dallas, Tex, or a score
of other first class cities In the above
mentioned places Sunday afternoon
closing has been a fact for years.
Wherever it has been tried it hasn't
disconnected the public. And down
town druggists are getting tired of this
quit at midnight and then nothing to
do till tomorrow at o'clock"
Among the drug stores which are
supporting the Sunday closing move
ment are EMBELLISHMENTS Ar
nold's, Brunt-Martin, Campbelrs,
F'lad's, Stansfield's and Hargis's.
