Beginning Thursday June 18th, the merchants in Carthage will close their places of business every Thursday afternoon until September 15th as they did last year. This is done that store keepers and clerks may have anyway a half holiday each week and the idea has spread all over the country stores in a great number of towns closing for certain hours each week.
