HOLLIDAY TRADE IS GOOD.
Presence cf the Soldiers Makes It Better
Than Last Year.
The Christmas holiday trade has opened
Tp in fine style, and the merchants are
enjoying a ru«h. Their forces are kept
<bu«y waiting on customers, and things are
at lively in Macon as they have been in
many a long day.
Two of the leading retail merchants of
•the city were asked yesterday how the
trade this year compares with that of last
at the corresponding time. “Why,” they
eaid, '"there is no comparison. Business is
much more lively now than it was ten
days before Christmas last year. We are
doing a good business, and I suppose the
tame is the case with all the merchants
in the city.
"To what do jou attribute the increased
ebusiness?"'
"Why, lo the soldiers being here,” was
•the answer of both. "You might not think
it, but there is many a small gift to be
bent home that is bought by a soldier. The
boys are thinking of the folks at home,
and they don’t hesitate to maj<e their lit
•tle purcba«e* to let relatives and friends
know they are not forgotten. But that is
not /be chief reason for the increased bus
iness. It Lg more largely due to the general
business activily that has resulted. from
ihe soldiers heiYig encamped near the city.
Many peqplje have made money from their
being here and they are Tdr this reason ;
more inclined to spend for Christmas gifts I
than usual.” •
"This war has been a great thing for
the South,” said one of the merchants.
"If the troops had not been encarnpt#
throughout this section I cannot see what
the people would have done. Four-cent
rotton is a knotty problem with which to
deal. and it is the money that has been
t*pent by the soldiers and the government
■that has kept us fronl having: to face it
t«s wy should have bad to.”
