EARLY CLOSING.
TO THE EDITOR. S|R, —Tn your columns a short time ago I saw a paragraph rejatiijg tp early closing. Sir, I think this a step' that should be taken in Masterton. , Only ask yourself the question, where is the use of keeping open till half-past nine and ten o'clock as the Masterton storekeepers do. If they were to make it a rule to shut at half-past seven or eight, people would get their, goods before that time.' And if they must', keep open, why should they .keep the assistants till past ten; they have no time to call their own. -When they: leave work it-is time to go to bed, or if they take an hour after that time it is eleven o'clock, and I do not call that a proper time for young people going to bed. Hoping the storekeepers \i\\\ take this jnto consideration, I am, etc., The AssisiiSTß' Friend,
