At the Handle Library the Civic League held its monthly meeting to discuss buying from peddlers and the state of films and entertainment for children. Andrew Bell of the Chamber of Commerce spoke on topics including cooperation with the city manager and attending Chamber meetings.
The Civic League records push to favor home buying, discouraging peddlers and urging patrons to try local stores first. Members cite benefits like at home dress trials and loyalty to local firms, with some shopping in cities then returning to Winchester for purchases.
