when a young man from the Atlantic
mills rushed In and wanted to be shaved
and quick at that.
He said that all he wanted was to be
shaved. no "hxings" The barber re-
moved the beard and started TO bath his
customers face with bay rum but the
customer did not have time TO wait for
this ceremony and twisted the barber !
hand aside, jumped out OF the chair, ano
reached the door. He was called bach
by the barber who showed him the long
list OF printed rules, and at the same time
the barber handed him towel, and said
my friend you will please take this
towel and blow your nose on IL, for we
must use one clean towel on all custom
ers. whether they want II or not. The
customer was angry and the little speech
that he made as he went through the
door was anything but nice, or comph-
tnentary 10 the board.
