Open Nights

The final week of shopping before
the coming of Christmas was under
wav today. with merchants in TINS
CITY ENJOYING some of the best sales

They could wish for even better than

better than what they have had over
an extended period for the fall sea-
son.
Last Saturday was one of the best
of the shopping days so far Thous-
Iands of people were in town and many
of them buying. Many were seen
coming and going with armfuls or
packages containing gifts and COM
modities for their own or their fam

The weekend saw all city schools
closed for the holidays and the to-
bacco market closed for the season.
AL thoughts were turned to the
Christmas season and preparations
that were being made for it.
Merchants have found that their
stocks of goods were ample for the
heavy demands they hoped would be
made upon them, and they were salts
fled that shoppers would find it un-
necessary to go elsewhere for the
great bulk of their holiday buying.
Much of the trade that ssgolng on
Is cash transactions, indicating that
there is some money in the hands OF
the public when there is a desire and
Willingness to buy. That is being
demonstrated at the present time.
