MIDSUMMER HOLIDAYS
Christmas and New Year
DECISION BY RETAILERS
With Christmas Day falling on Monday, December 25, and New Year’s Day also tailing on a Monday, the question of observing the weekly half holiday in the weeks affected has to be decided by New Zealand retailers,. Wanganui has not been slow to appreciate the fact that an early decision is better than procrastination, and a few days ago a representative general meeting of the Wanganui Drapers’ Clothiers, Furnishers and Boot Retailers’ . Association was held. The following holidays were decided on and will also b,e recommended to other sections of local retailers;—
Christmas Eve (Saturday, December 23): Premises close IQ p,m. Monday (Christmas Day) and Tuesday (Boxing Day): Premises closed. The weekly half-holiday in Christmas week; is to be observed on Tuesday, December 19, from 12 noon. New Year's Eve (Saturday, December 30): Premises close 10 p.m. Monday (New Year’s Day) and Tuesday (January 2): Premises closed. As there are two consecutive holidays in the latter week, no half holiday need be observed.
