Continuing its drive to promote early | shopping and mailing of Christmas mer- chandise, the Merchants and Manu- facturers Association announced yes- terday it had succeeded in gaining the | co-operation of virtually a]l Washing- ton merchants in displaying Yuletide stocks earlier this year than before. Deviating from a past practice of de- ferring the display of Christmas stocks until early in December, merchants this year are jolning with a Nation-wide movement to encourage early season gift buying, sccording to Edward D. Shaw, secretary of the merchants’ group, in order to prevent, as much as poulg;le, last-minute rushes and clog- ging of delivery and mail units. The association delegated a commit- tee to analyize the shopping records of previous years, and this survey showed a fmwlng tendency on the part of care- ful buyers to make purchases well in advance of the customary rush period. Retallers are prepared now to meet the heavy Christmas demand. One; Night-Out Train THE TAMIAMI Leaves Washington 1.30 P. M. daily. [ THE HAVANA SPECIAL Florida, Cubs.
