REGULATIONS ARE sTRICT-LIST
OF INSPECTORS.

The state board of barber examiners
yesterday submitted its annual report to
the governor. The report shows that
during the entire year it has been IN
necessary to make a single arrest in or
der to enforce the law. What minor
violations of the law there have been
have been due to careIessness rather
than to any wilful disObedience of the
law, and these have been Immediately
corrected when attention was directed
to them.
The report shows thai there are log
barber shops in Utah, employing 500
jOurneymen BARRIERS and seventy-five
apprentices. In Salt Lake there are 237
BARRIERS and thiTty-nine apprentices
working in seventy-six barber shops
During the year ninety-four out Of III
applicants have passed examinations
and have been given certificates.
Something Of an epidemic of impeti-
80, or BARRIERS itch" broke out I'm Salt
Lake about the first Of the year. Tn
der the direction of the state board of
barber examiners each shop was fumi-
gated and each case placed under quar-
1ntine, and in a short time the disease
was stamped out.
The receipts from the examinations
and licenses issued were $1,411.45, ex-
ceeding the expenditures for the year
by $3.O5.

In conclusion, the report says:
THE members of the board feel salts
fed with the conditions Of the barber
shops throughout the state. The ma
iority of the BARRIERS are in favor Of the
law and help the board Dy seeing that
all BARRIERS are registered as soon as
they apply for work. thus benefting
themselves by protecting their own
work and prohibiting the transient
iOurneymen from absorbing the daily
earnings which rightly belong to the
barber who has paid his fee and passed
this examining board successfully.
Sanitary Conditions.
I'VE urgently invite the public at
large throughout the state to become
familiar with the rules and regulations
governing the sanitary conditions OF
barber shops. Those rules and regula-
tons, according to the law, must be
posted in a conspicuous place in every
barber shop in the state.
Every barber shop patron should in
sist upon being served with absolutely
clean linen, and this includes Turkish
towels for massaging, clean comb and
brush; the mug and lstneT brush must
be cleansed with running mot water, and
the razor dipped in a sufficiently
strong antiseptiC, preferably a 20 per
cent solution Of f0rmaldehyde, which
every barber should have in front Of
his chair.
IF the public would demand the
above as outlined 1t would be of great
service in helping the board maintain
the proper sanitary conditions in all
barber shops"

PiSgott, president of the board D. J.
