Trouble Keeping Meat Fresh Over

meat retailers, the privilege of keep
ing their shops open until O'Clock
on Sunday morning for the purpose of
delivering orders that were taken on
Saturday. However, when the Mayor
granted the privilege. the butchers
faithfully promised that they would
neither take orders or receive money
on Sunday.
II made mistake" said Mayor
.Scherff this morning, when | ordered
the shops kept closed all day Sunday.
II is not fair to that class of people
who cannot afford refrigerators and
ice"
Continuing on the subject, he said,
~ have received scores of complaints
since the hot weather has come on,
people claiming that the meat which
they purchased on Saturday night was
not in f1t condition to eat by Sunday
noon. Consequently, after carefully
considering the matter, deemed it
my duty to allow the meat retailers
TO deliver orders until O'Clock sun
day morning."
There are but few towns the size
OF Marion in the state where the meat
Is not delivered on Sunday" declared
a prominent butcher this morning.
1T will be of no material gain TO us
but simply solves the problem which
