JOKE ON THE BARRIERS
corking Good Story Going the
Rounds of the Press.

Rounds of the Press.
There is an old adage to the effect
that one must go away from home
to hear the news" Here in Nebraska
we never heard of the story about the
Waterloo barber ordinance until we
saw it in the eastern daily newspa
pers, and from there it has been cop
led into the weekly papers every
where Here is the story, date line
and all:
Waterloo, Neb., April 29.-An or
dinance has been passed by the city
council and signed by the mayor. and
is effective at once, which, among
other things, regulates matters reta-
tive to the cleanliness of barber shops.
and then provides:
ct shall be unlawful for any bar
ber in this town to eat onions between
Z a. m. and p. m. No barber, while
shaving customer, shall insert his
thumb or finger in the said custom
ers mouth; shall not discuss the gos-
sip of the town and shall not use to-
bacco while working over chair;
shall not insist upon customer hav-
ing his neck shaved or his hair
singed."
A violation of any of these provi-
sions shall subject the barer to or-
rest and a fine of not less than 81
for each and every offense."
Wouldn't that jar you? It's safe
bet that some of those Waterloo conn
cilmen have gone against the "Dago''
barber game The breath of the av-
erage "Dago" barber is said to be cal
the intestine cart of a slaughter
house.
