Retailers Discuss
Christmas Hours
Entire Membership OF Bureau
To Vote On Number OF Nights
Stores Should Remain Open
During Christmas Season.

The first fall luncheon meeting of
the Hagerstown Retailers Bureau was
held at the Hotel Alexander Friday.
with John Lacy, president of the
organization, presiding.
Following talk by Harry Vollmer,
of the Public Relations Department
of Fairchild Aircraft Division, in
which he expressed optimism over
the chances of keeping employment
at the Fairchild plant at its present
level, the rest of the meeting was
given over largely to discussion of
the Christmas shopping store hours.
A number of proposals were dis
cussed, and the store hour question
was finally boiled down to two pro-
positions. Both proposals were al
most alike, the only difference being
that while one proposal would keep
the night opening for the Christmas
shopping period at about the same
as last year, the second proposal
would permit the stores to remain
open until 900 o'clock two nights
more than previously.
The discussion was quite lengthy
one, and as a result when it came
time for the final vote, a. number of
the members had been forced to
leave in order to return to their
stores. 1t was therefore decided
that instead of taking vote right
away on the two proposals, the sec
rotary be instructed to poll the full
membership of the bureau on the
question by mail, and the result of
that poll will determine the exact
hours of the Christmas shopping
period.
Street Christmas decorations al
so came in for some discussion, and
it is expected that by the next meet
ing final decision will be reached
as to what extent the street decora-
tons will be carried out.
Prior to the war days, the streets
were decorated for Christmas week,
the cost being borne jointly by the
city and the retailers. But due to,
the lack of material, the decorating
had to be discontinued during the
war, and an effort is now being made
to get it started again. t""

Fire Prevention
Week Oct. 9 to Is
State Insurance Commissioner
Suggests Several Ways To Stop
Fire Hazards.

Governor Lane has proclaimed
the week of October 9th to 18th as
Fire Prevention Week in Maryland.
"The battle against fire can be,
and is, being won A single after
noon or evening will be enough time
to rid your home of the most com
mon fire hazards" said Commissioner
Claude A Hanley, State Insurance
Commissioner, in urging all citizens
to join in the nationwide observ-
ance of Fire Prevention Week. Com
missioner Hanley particularly en-
phasizes the following points.
l. Rubbish fires are causing a
great deal of damage in our State
and citizens are urged to remove rub
bish from cellars, attics and closets
to help reduce fire losses.
2. A large number of fires are
caused by the careless use of matches
and smoking. Matches should be
kept out of the reach of small chill
dren. Great care should be taken
while smoking to use ash trays.
Above all DO NOT SMOKE IN
BED.
Other principal causes of fire are
attributed to careless habits, care
less handling of gasoline and other
fiammable liquids, faulty and make
shift wiring, neglecting needed re-
pairs in heating equipment and de-
fective fiues.
Commissioner Hanley further
states that he feels that the pub
lie can well afford to take a few
minutes out of their busy lives dur
ing this Fire Prevention Week not
only to think about some of these
problems, but to take active steps
to eliminate the hazards which may
exist in their homes and places of
employment, before it is too late.
