In Orillia one of the local news- papers wants a government liquor store established there because it is good for business. while it goes . ithout saying the--other newspap- ` er is opposing it because it is bad for business. Perhaps Barrie mer- chants will be surprised to learn they are reaping real benet througha liquor store being locat- ed there and Orillia mechants might Just as well obtain the same advantage." The `statement is sub- iect. to some discount as is the fol- lowing""from the same newspa er: There is no more drinking in ar- rie than there is here. Three big celebrations were held in Barrie the past summer with hundreds of visitors in the town and not a single arrest was necessary. Bar- rie papers are boasting of the so- briety and general ne conduct of the people there under the new law. There is also evidence in the `foregoing of a slight stretch of the imagination. There is no ques- tion but what the liquor store has brought many visitors to Barrie in- cluding those from Orillia. who would not otherwise have` come. Some have tarried in town longer than necessary. a few against their wishes, but whether or not these visitors took the elastic off their bank rolls in the stores. of the town i is a debatable question. We know i of a tipsy American -who purchas- ed three bathing suits the coldest - day in September, first because he stopped in Barrie to visit the gov- ernment emporium and second be- cause he couldn't buy a woollen bathing suit in his own country. , but perhaps this is an isolated case. Invariably a merchant's re- ply as to whether the government liquor store has hurt or helped his business, is tainted with his er- sonal views on prohibition. t is therefore of little value. This can be said, however, the new law commands more public respect, there `being absolutely no sym- pathy with offenders as under the 0.T.A., while the work or the pol- ice has been greatly _simpli_ed. It might also be said-in passing that more liquoraisvbeing consum- KING ed. I ' one suit in arrears.
