In the story of "The Winning of Barbara
Worth" is a clever account of the first bar
Der shop in the town of Kingston. 1t reads,
I'VE have a barber, all right. He landed
with his outfit this afternoon. There was
no place for him. and the freighter unload
ed him on vacant lot about block west
of the hotel. He set up his chair in
the street. Piled in vacant lot was
the necessary furniture for well equipped
shop, but only the chair was in use. A
goods-bOx held the instruments while a
bucket of water a tin basin and a supply
of towels completed the arrangements"
Time has passed. The vacant lot has
changed into modern shop in the Barbara
Worth Hotel building, with plate glass mir
rOrs adequate chairs and modern equip
ment. In place of the single brush and
razor, are Sterlizing ovens, where every in
strument is carefully sterilized before it
touches the next customer and every pre-
caution is taken to remove contagion by
contact.
The Beauty Shop is cheerful and in
Viting, and one may have any kind of treat
ment for skin or hair from the simplest
massage to the new electric shampoo. The
keynote Of the beauty shoppe, too, is steri-
lization.

AN APOLOGY

IN the account of the "Belle of
Barcelona" we inadvertently omitted
the name of James Ward in the cast
of characters. One of the necessities
of a production like the "Belle of
Barcelona" is a good accompanist.
Mrs. Melvina Glenn was the excellent
pianist in this production, her work
could hardly be excelled. In the
story last week, concerning the play
we also failed to say a word about
the wonderful work of Mrs. Glenn
For this we beg to be excused.
