And the Progress of New Plymouth. DON’T PUT YOUR TOWN BACK ! 1 1 iHE Business 3len and ilerchants of New Plymouth consider-'that any •-r- change in the half-holiday at presenA-wiih be a big .set-backvto the trade of New Plymouth. Our town is at present prosperous. We have practically no unemployed, and, considering that our Empire is engaged in the biggest war of the age, this is not the time to make such .a drastic change. Auckland has tried it, and is petitioning for a return to the .mid-week holiday. Nelson has tried it, 1 found it unsuitable, and has returned to the mid-week holiday. Christchurch is fighting hard, to get back the Saturday trade. IVanganui has issued a protest against any departure from Thursday as a half-holiday, signed by eighty retail business firms. Why not go for a universal half-holiday for the whole Dominion? Every business man will support and work for this, but until this is carried wo would ask yon to vote, one and all, for Thursday, and push our town ahead, and not take any chance of setting it hack. Why Vote For Thursday as a Half-Holiday ? 1. Because Saturday is the Best Business Day for the Farmer. 2. Because Saturday is the Free Day. from School, enabling the Farmer and Family to come to Town. 3. Because the Advent of Trains will popularise the Town. Fancy Saturday night in New Plymouth in a state of darkness! 4. Because Additional Municipal Taxation is imminent, and the public cannot take any risks. 5. Because the housewife would have-to crowd her shopping into Saturday morning. 6. The Mid-week Holiday was first instituted in New Plymouth by the employers in the interests of their employees.
