Even'g Shopping Friday night shopping looms as a distinct possibility for Sea - forth in the near future. Sever- al Seaforth merchants, asked for 'their opinion early this week, were either heartily in fa- vor or not opposed. A .member of the merchants committee stated on Wednesday that some merchants are in fa- vor of remaining open Friday nights, while a number are quite strongly opposed. An effort to reach a decision will be made et a meeting on Thursday evening be stated. He thought it could be settled 'by vote one way or the other. Most merchants felt that sur- rounding towns should act to- gether, adapting store hours ac- ceptable to merchants and a ma- jority of customers. It as pointed out that Satur- day night business had steadily declined as other •attractions take people away from the stores that night. There is strong indication that 'Friday night has (become shopping night for customers having access to stores remaining . open Friday nights. A merchant who said he was not in favor: of Friday night opening said people are accust- omed to 'Saturday night shop- ping and there would 'be a loss of business until people got used to the new shopping time. He still does as much business on Saturday night as ever. "Sea - forth is a Saturday night town," he said. A farmer living less than ten miles south of 'Seaforth said it made absolutely no difference to him which night the stores were open. He had been in Sea - forth only twice in the past four years on Saturday night, If he had major purchases to make, he came 'to town during the day. "We phone in our order for the week's supplies usually a- bout noon and they are deliver- ed by truck during the after- noon", he said. CHIMNEY ,FIRE T'he rural fire truck respond- ed to a .call to a chimney fire at the home of Borden G. (Riehl, east of ILeadbury, on 'Monday. morning.
