EATING PLACES
SHOW INCREASE
In CLEANLINESS
Health Inspector Says Pro-
prietors Are Fast Realiz-
ing Commercial Import
ance of Sanitation.


This week marks the end OF the
second complete checking up and scor-
ing of eating and refreshment places
| in the city by the local health authori-
ties Last week list of the princi-
pal restaurants was published. 1t was
shown then what a wonderful i'm
provement all had made since March
1st, when inspection work was finally
gone at in thorough earnestness.
1T is hardly necessary" said one of
the authorities, ito ask if there are
any dissatisfied proprietors. So plain
!, is the scoring system that though the
inspector goes into every corner and
method, anyone can follow the manner
by which he gives or takes away
/ points. Everybody can be sure they
have had the same treatment that all
| get
I'm many cases the inspections have
been beneficial from the educative
ipoint alone. There have been num-
Der OF proprietors who state that they
would gladly allow their places open
! to visiting school classes who might
be conducted through in order to
t learn first hand how the world is fed
! on a large scale.
sAs was pointed out from the first,
Iit becomes a question of pride to con-
duct a clean sanitary business. The
81 cafes it will be noted represent
the smaller places of business COM
pared to the ones scored last week
They have made all big strides in
scores due to their improvement in
methods of dish washing. screening
against flies and general cleanliness.
Due to meagerness of equipment they
appear to be still too far down the
score list Now that they have been
shown the necessity as well as the
good business features of sanitary es-
Establishments they will continue to hail
the inspectors as friends and benefac-
tors
@The townspeop1e cannot help but
notice the improved appearance of all
places they pass. 1t reflects credi-
on the business interests. When you
are asked what is the use of civic
pride, how. do you answer? Think
better of yourself so visitors will do
