Next Monday, Labor Day, Being Holiday
All BrattIeboro Stores Will Remain
Open Rest of Week

The experience of some merchants on
Wednesday afternoon following July 4, at
which time the stores were kept open, was
such as to make them think that Brattle-
boro people did not generally understand
that the stores were open on Wednesday
afternoon of the week in which a legal
holiday was observed.
1t should be distinctly understood that
all the stores in Brattleboro viii be open
all day next Wednesday. This is in ac-
cordance with the notices posted in all the
store windows. Habit, however, is strong
and it seems well to here state that the
stores will be open every day next week
