WOMEN OF WANGANUI! You are vitally interested in this half-holiday contest. You know that for th majority of women Saturday Is by far the most convenient shopping day. You know, too, that it is the only day on which it is convenient to take the children shopping, because it is the only day that they are home from school. The advocates of Saturday closing have no regard for the convenience and benefits that Saturday shopping confers upon wives, mothers, fathers, and children. They think Saturday would suit them best for holiday-making, for playing and pleasuring, and that is all they are concerned about. You women of Wanganui know that far more serious considerations are involved. You know that time of war is no time to disturb settled business arrangements. THAT it would be unwise and unpatriotic to sanction an experiment which would dislocate the trade and industry of Wanganui. THAT it would be cruel and unjust to force tradesmen who rely largely on week-end business to close their shops on Saturday. THAT Saturday closing could not possibly bring more trade to Wanganui, but it might result in a lot of valuable business being lost. THAT lessened business means lessened employment. • ;' THAT your own convenience is best served by having the shops open on Sautrday. THAT those who are clamouring for the Saturday holiday are entitled by law to take it. . • THAT their only reason for forcing a poll is to compel others to do what they are afraid to do voluntarily, In the best interests of your town, for the well being: of a large body of traders and their employees, and in defence of your own interests and convenience, FOR THURSDAY
