we have been trying to accomplish,
and how far we have succeeded,
What we principally insist upon ID
that food articles exposed for sale
shall be covered, that cups and tunl-
blers shall be kept clean and turned
bottom up when not in use, and that
all trash shall be disposed of at once
and not allowed ITO accumulate
around the booths. Also, the hot
plates used by stand men for cook
ing wiennerwursts and hamburg
must be clean and covered. In the
old days II you bought a glass Of
lemonade at fair, you got mix
ture Of water, saccharine and citric
acid, with lemon floater on top Of
1t. Now your lemonade is made Of
real lemon Juice and real sugar. The
professional stand men have become
accustomed to the new rule, and they
seldom fail to comply with 1t, for
they see that 1t helps their business.
Only this morning four or five OF
them whom / had seen up at Con
cordia greeted me with Well, in
spector, is everything satisfactory a
Mr.. Klelnhans seems to like his Job.
Praises Church Ladies'.
"There is one thing" he contin-
ued, II wish you would mention,
and under my name, too. That is
the nice, clean, appetlzlng fare that
is being offered by the ladies of the
Methodist, Lutheran and Christian
churches at their dining halls. They |
are running the kind of place 1t
does an inspectors heart good to
see, and they deserve public com
mendation for the way they win
come out here and work in cause
which brings them personally no fin
anclal gain"
