On hand, and heart, and brow.

And the sad, sadday to me.

While some of the local concerns

their records and have been given a
clean bill by the inspectors, it is un-
derstood that there are others who
have been Just little lax in the rec
ords and their failure to keep a COM

proven rather expensive to them. Some
of the local dealers in ice cream have
been hit rather hard by the inspection
