MERCHANTSHAV
4. GOOD BUSINESS
Some Report Saturday Best
Day In History for
Organizations

Taking the entire community as a
whole. Henderson merchants had a
satisfactory Christmas business, and
the b, st most of them have had in
several years, it was learned from
conversations with some of them dur
ing the weekend.
Some reported the best Saturday
business for any one day in the his
tory of their establishments. The local
Rose tore had the biggest gross busi-
ness volume Saturday this or any
other store ever had on any day in
the history of the large chain or
ganiz3tion it was said today.
Stocks of merchandise were picked
over. and many commodities ran
short entirely at the last minute.
1t was estimated that the crowds liz
town for the last shopping day before
Christmas were perhaps the largest
FOR that day in HendersOn's history.
Some bought sparingly and others in
large quantities, but nearly every one
was doing some buying, with the re-
suit that the purchases contributed
both tc the enjoyment Of the people
1T Christmas and to the gross volume
Of the business people.

Visibility And Speed

Many motorists fail to grasp the
vital relationship between visibility
and speed, according to o. w. Mer-
rell, Ohio highway director.
Where the view at an intersection
is obstructed, for example, the alert
motorist doesn't need to be told
that there is danger there. To such
driver the word Caution" or the
Injunction "Go Slow is warning
enough, but unfortunately the
thoughtless or the careless motorist
often learns only from experience
an accident
"Don't fly around curves at high
ly dangerous speeds without having
the slightest idea of what may lie
ahead" Merrell warns. "Slow
down at all times on curves and
especially at turns where the vision
is impaired The fellow coming to-
ward you may be speeding too, and
then again he may be on the wrong
side of the road.
ga similar situation exists when
ever a motorist drives over the top
of a hill You never know what is
on the other side until you get
there. For that reason slow down
so that you can stop quickly II
Necessary.
"In short, be doubly alert and
take things slowly on hills and
curves. You may not arrive at
your destination so quickly, but the
chances are that you'll arrive there
safely"
