While passing along ' the street

this : "We greatly appreciate your
patronage during the week but
please do not give us any of your
Sunday's business." Other stares
in Edgefield should display similar
notices. Only drugs or other things
needed by sick persons should be
sold on Sunday. The ordinance
prohibiting the sale of merchandise
