The reasons for the customers' desire for night shopping opportunities is, of course, a. different story. The trek to the suburbs in metropolitan aceas; the increasing use of the automobile and parking problems it has entailed; the usual consumer's -or housewife's preference for doing most of the shopping in one package, all have helped.

More than one-third, or 37.7 prf cent of them, estimate that a half to three-fourths their weekly' volume is done between 6 p.m; and closing, usually, at 9 p.m. Another 36.7 per cent estimated that 30 to 50- per -cent of theirl total gross sales could.be buted to evening-hour openings. The remaining 25.6 per cent said "night sales represented fivtf to 25 per cent of the total gross?
