Kicking Over Tradition'

With this trite phrase of the largest cor
poratlons in the nation announced the closing
OF its immense chain of cigar stores on Sun
days. For years we have heard it said that
large corporations had no consideration for
the public or the publics opinion. The Sunday
closing is a self-evident contradiction of that
assumption.
1t is only too true that "Tradition has been
responsible for a big majority of the worlds
evils" and many useless customs continue
because of Tradition rather than because
Necessary.
Thousands of leading merchants have
"Kcked Over Tradition" still further by clos
ing their stores on Saturday evenings. The
forty-four-hour week has become recognized
as the standard for industrial workers. Even
wholesale houses and office buildings are clos
ing Saturday afternoons the year round.
Practically all leading stores in metropolitan
cities, such as New York, Chicago, Philadel-
phia and Boston, have for years closed their
stores on Saturday evenings. Other smaller
cities, such as Dayton, Ohio; Akron, Ohio;
Syracuse, n Y; Watertown, N Y; Amster-
dam, N. Y; Easton, Pa; York, Pa, and many
of the other cities throughout the nation, have
adopted Saturday evening closing.
This store for almost year has closed Sat-
urday evenings because "NNe are firmly con-
vinced that Harrisburg has completely out
grown the conditions which made necessary
the keeping open of stores on Saturday nights,
and that continuing to keep open places upon
the clerks a needless burden which can be elm
mated without loss or inconvenience to any
one"
Several other stores have joined with us in
the progressive movement and very shortly
the Tradition of Saturday night opening will
be set aside in all cities that make any pre-
tensions of being in the front rank.
