georgetown herald a thomson newspapers limited pubiication serving the communities o georgetown glen william norval limehousjk hornby stewarttown fiallinafad ashgrove terra cone page 4 thursday june lit 1961 editorial comment bants attempt by a new shopping plaza in branpton lo break the closing hour by law ei a thorny problem for merchants in our neighbouring town bui it alio has a wider inlerest and should be carefully walched by georgetown businessmen who indirectly could be effec- led by any change in shopping hours as a matter of fact it was georgetown which pioneered in establishing a system of monday closing and friday night open hours in tins area prior to that we can remember in town a system of two open nights weekly wednesdays and saturdays when the door was latched only after the last cuslomer had left a thursday half holiday gave merch- ants and employees a few hours respite from their six day two evening week but it rs remembered thai usually it was one or two o clock in the afternoon before the store could be closed first improvement was dropping of the wednesday open mghf it was revolu tionary at the time and met with some op position from the public and in fact from some merchants too this consolidated a few years laler agitation staffed for a sn ft to friday open nights and after a lenglny period of dis ussion and petitions the shift was made at the same time bringing m the new idea of monday closings thus for the first time a merchant could compete in hours with industry and offer their staffs a five day week this too met with considerable opposihon at the time but it proved itself when oqe aflpr tfhother neighbouring towns adopted sim ilar legislation and the idea of monday closing became more and more established in this area we think it is a good system and we think there are few merchants who would want lo relurn lo the days of being at the service of the public at all hours of the day and night it is good particularly because any change now would be a hard ship for small businesses with a staff so small thai working hours could not be staggered it is good for the buying public be cause they jtnow exactly when itoies will be open and closed one cannot say that any system is trie perfect one nor should we close our eyes lo the fact that times change and business cannot be static but it is important thaf if any chan ges are to be made they should be thor oughly studied and the majority voice rule we hope that in brampton no hasty action is taken for no town is a business entity and should a major change occur there i would have an effect on the local scene loo if georgetown merchants are egamst the new trend they should speak out early and loudly and let their bramp ton confreres know majority feeling in when are they going to shoot off the big one sugar and spice 1 by bill smiley el tomorrow ill be forty one fishing and hunting qod 1 occurs to me thai t la friends

free town is a tremendous asset and one of the best advertismenls that georgetown could have we hope this publ c mamfeslfltion of interest in cleaning up georgetown will be only the first of many such
