F. barber shop in kcnsington, was startled to hear woman's voice at the door of his shop say Good after noon" As women very seldom enter the place. he turned and responded to the greeting. The woman. an attrac- tive one, apparently did not come on business and after few minutes ask cd a question which nearly knocked the honest proprietor of the shop off his feet: Can you tell me where l can get drink?"
 She didn't want water, Patsy knew, and he told her, with much dignity, that Berlin is dry town." After telling him that liquor can be secured anywhere in New York, she said that she would get on the trolley car and fgo to New Britain in search of the forbidden intoNicant.
