FART FIELD

Yesterday presented quite a contrast
at Fairfield Beach from Saturday and
Sunday of last week. No one was in
sight yesterday while last week end
there was a very good crowd assem-
bled. Mr.. Collins of Collins Bathing
Pavilion said, I'VE must expect this
cold snap to play havoc with our
business but I feel confident that in
another week or two buSin eSS will be
rushing" This was quite the opposite
from the statement made by the man
ager of the Unuowa Hotel who said
This last week has certainly been a
successful week for US and the tran
sient trade has been exceptionally
good as has the permanent trade for
the summer. If business keeps up
like this within another week we will
be taxed to our capacity"
The store which is to be occupied
by John McGarry for meat business
looks very promising now. Several
of the fixtures have been installed and
1t will only be a matter of a short
time before the residents of Fairfield
have a first class meat market.
