jjj Only 14 More Shopping Days Till Christmas Low Cash Prices 'and Generous "Assortments here will enable you to do your Holiday Shopping satisfactorily. Si
South Side merchants have ex
pressed the opinion that the strike
has not made a vital change in the
volume of their business although
most of the business houses in the
:ity have noticed a slight increase in
sales since vthe strike began.
Prominent business men attribute
1 this increase to the fact that South
SiJe people, who during normal
times do their shopping in Omaha,
are now doing it on the South Side
because of the difficulty in getting to
Omaha -since the strike began.
H. H. Wiig of the Wiig Brothers
company, says that the iirst day of
the strike, the sales in the depart
ment store, of which lie is part
proprietor, fell off considerably.
"No doubt, it was due-to the fact
that people thought the strike would
not last. long and postponed their
shopping until a time when it would
be more convenient:" said Mr. Wiisr.
I "llovjcver when they saw that the
! strike was going fo, last trade rc
: sinned its normal course and also in-
creased somewhat. "If this strike
lasts a few days longer it will be
i the biggest Christmas in the history
I of South Omaha for the merchants,"
! said Joseph J, Paylik of the firm
;' of Koutsky-Pavlit. "Our sales
, have increased since the strike, but
they will increase still more. People
. still think tlfty have time to do their
! Christina shopping, but the real
! Christmas rush wilt begin in a few
days now," -
Henry Rothholz, a prominent
South Side merchant, said that he
expected his Saturday, sales to in
crease 25 per ce;it over his usual
Saturday-business. '
John Flynn, proprietor of Flynn's
clothing store, says that if the strike
continues he does not expect a
large volume of business than usual.
''In times of strikes," said Mr.
Flynn, "people never know what is
coming next and they want to hang
on to their money." J -
