"Nor Is there any day designated for the proposed pro-posed half holiday. Friday's mass meeting is to inform the merchants that the public will co-operate with them in doing their shopping to assist the movement "If the sentiment at the mass meeting meet-ing discloses that a half holiday is desirable, then the day for such half holiday can be fixed. If the sentiment senti-ment at the mass meeting is against the movement, then the matter can be dropped." MayorFrank Francis will preside at the piass .meeting, which, will be called-to order at 8 o'clock p. m. I : 1
