Lakeland business houses never i closed up an afternoon each week be- tor this summer, and its really funny and sometimes a near tragedy when Thursday afternoons roll around, and the house-wife wakes up to the fact that she “clear forgot the stores would be closed” and there isn’t enough provinder in the house to feed a fair-sized poodledog, let alone a Lig hungry family. There's a 8001 | many folks who dine on water ani Liscuits Thursday nights, with o1 course, a few other little extras thrown in like salf and toothpicks, but the clerks don't care and neithe | ao the grocers, for they know Fri- d ba a big one, everything in town was closed as tight as if it was Sunday, the drus clesss joining all the rest of the bunch in having a half day holiday. Its a focd movement and we are { &lad to sce it instituted, and we - uess jeventually everybody will wake up to the fact, and order a rood supply f eatables on Thursday morning and then everybody'll bo happy.
