comEs zee Come to
an agreement
CARDS SECURED
AT CITY CLERKS
New System Will Go into
Effect Tomorrow
Morning

AT a conference yesterday afternoon of
the local food interpreting board and the
grocers of Barre it was decided TO in
augurate card system for the sale and
distribution of sugar in Barre. Nearly
all the grocers of the city were in at
tendance and were unanimous in their
approval of the plan, which, it is expect
ed, will give an equitable and equal dis
tributon of sugar to all the families in
the city.
Under the arrangement agreed upon at
the meeting, City Clerk James Mackay
will begin issuing cards tomorrow morn
ing to the heads of families husband or
wife) which will entitle them to pur-
chase certain amount of sugar weekly,
the quantity to be graded by the mum
Der of persons in family and TO be de-
pendent also on the supply in the stores
of the city. To purchase sugar, any
member of the family may present the
card at any store having sugar for sale
and get their proportion of the sugar on
hand to be distributed that week. When
a customer has received his or her week
ly supply no further purchases can be
made until another week
The amount each person in a family
will receive will be determined by the
gross amount of sugar in town the first
of each week, divided by the number of
nhabitants. If there is found to be
epough in Barre tomorrow morning to
yive each person one half pound, a fam
ly of four will be entitled to two pounds
this week, and if the amount is large
enough to give pound to each person
family of four would get four pounds.
No family will be able to get sugar
without a card, and it is requested that
persons having sufficient supply for the
week do not call at the city clerks for
ards until they are out of sugar, as un-
Ter this arrangement it is expected an
imple supply of sugar will be assured
4rocers will begin selling sugar as soon
IS cards are issued.
To complete arrangements for the
arriving out of the new order, all Barre
,rocers are requested to meet at the
merchants rooms in the c. w. Averill
lock at 1880 this evening, when cards
viii be shown and card punches will be
distributed.
