to the public who
eats and drinks in their estab-
lishmentS. Most restaurant own
ers are good businessmen, and
have found it is beneficial to
accept the responsibility for pro-
viding Good Food.
Restaurant workers are re-
sponsible for being healthy; for
having good personal hygiene,
and practising sanitary habits.
And lastly, the public is re-
sponsible for getting good food"
The consumer will get what he
demands. If the public will de-
mand safe sanitary food service
they will get it. This demand, on
the part of those who eat and
drink, acts as a Stimulant for
restaurant operators. Free enter
prise is aided.

Redwood Legion's
Formal Dedication
Of New Home Friduy

Formal opening of the new
Redwood Legion Home will be
held Friday, Dec. 80, with a
dance in the assembly hall. The
building was built almost en-
tirely with donated labor by the
members of the post.
This included plumbing and
many other costly jobs that
would have cost the post a great
deal of money if it had been done
by a contractor. The building was
constructed out of cement blocks
and was built on the rear of the
frame building formerly used as
the Legion Home.
The two buildings together will
give the Redwood Post large
assembly hall that may be used
for all sorts of public functions
and by many local groups for
banquets, dances, etc.
From the time that the first
plans were laid to the compile
ton of the building, only little
more than a year elapsed. The en-
tire post cooperated in finishing
the project in the least possible
time.
1t is the hope of the members
of the post that the new build
ing will provide a recreation CEN
ter for the people of the commun-
ity in years to come.

Toward Your Better Health
Food Sanitation Held Important Factor

of Health, tries to meet them,
and soon makes his place open
for business. But, if he is new to
the food business, he soon dis
covers his restaurant has entered
one of the largest and most COM
petitive businesses in the Ameri-
can system.
The new restaurant man finds
his prospective customers are en-
dowed with a highly developed
power of selection-a natural
right granted to all in a democra-
cy. The keen operator soon
learns through trial and error to
meet most of the demands of the
eating public. The unwise res
taurant operator too frequently
regards sanitation standards as a
joke, unnecessary, or even
foolish. Dirty, unclean eating
places are no joke to increasingly
sanitation-conscious public.
Remember - the old one about
the restauranteer who says to a
customer, Here are some views
of our rstaurant to take with you,
Sir, and the customer replies,
Thanks, but l have my own
views of your place" This little
WitticiSm carries a thought. II
and when restaurant operator
earnestly strives to run good
restaurant, he can make the
views of his restaurant good ones.
