Many Bismarck Folks Have Found
How to Make Work Easier

What is so hard as a days work

CONFER WITH
FOWLER
Health officer Stresses Need
for Protecting EdibIes From
Dirt and Handling

Recommended supplementals to
the District code in connection with
the health laws which have been
planned by Doctor William c. Fow.
Ter, the District health officer, will
be discussed tomorrow at a hear
ing of local food merchants before
the Commissioners.
Objections had been made to a
set of recommendations made at
a previous hearing before the Com
missioEers and Doctor Fowler was
asked to revise his suggestions.
Merchants have objected to the
use of glass containers as q com
pete protection for food from .1irt.
It is said that it will work undue
hardship and expense to install
such cases.
. Doctor Fowler has changed his
suggestions so that they read "sani-
tary containers" instead Of specifi-
cally mentioning glass. Thus, it is
pointed out, any case which alb
solutely prevents the entry of
foreign substance into food will be
lawful.
Doctor Fowler stresses the need
FOR covering foods in lunch rooms
particularly in order to prevent
promiscuous handling by patrons.
1t is believed that the new set OF
recommendation will be received
more favorably by local dealers
and that the Commissioners NAV
act in accordance.
