PEOPLE ARE REQUESTED NOT TO LOITER ABOUT THE STREETS" .In addition, there is a "Recall to Work" where " Employees and Workers in all occupations particularly those in the Food, Munition and Coal Trades, should return to work TO-DAY" the notice signs off with the statement that " The holders of "off" Licences may keep open from 10a.m. to 5 p.m., during the above period, for the sale of Groceries and Provisions, but not for the sale of drink. BY ORDER".
