Under the new by-law barber shops and hair dressing establishments will be required to take out annual licenses at $1 each. They will be re- quired to have proer plumbing facili- ties with running hot and cold water. Towels must be clean not used on more than one person. Instiluments must be sterilized after every customer. No barber will be allowed to give ser- vice to any person who apparently is suffering from a communicable disease. The mayor wanted to know if the revenue accruing to the town from the sale of licenses would justify the regular inspection that would be neces- sary to see that the terms of the by- law were complied with. ”Don‘t look at it in that way. It is a matter of health not revenue," said Ccluncillor Cousins. The by-law was passed. J. E. Hammell lil in Toronto Hospital J. E.

In the past week good progress has been made and the construction of the first storey is al- mos: completed. The appearance of snow has begun a dangerous practice among children. which, police say. should be stopped by parents. before serious or fatal in- jury results. Many youngsters have been observed hanging on the backs of cars and trucks starting away from parking spots The sport the children have sliding on the slippery road is not worth the chance of grave injury. Par- cuts are asked to forbid their children to endanger their lives in that way. The artificial stone pillars on each side of what will be the main entrance have been put in place and are flanked on each side by slabs of artificial gran- ite. made in Kitchener. What delayed the early progress of the building was the lack of steel. When all of the steel necessary to the con- structlon came the building began to go up. Today workmen are erecting the steel for the second storey. The building will ‘be ; . o stor: 2,. lieigur Interesting and Happy Suppefir‘ Event Under Auspices of Societies of New Italian Church Here.

On Monday The Advance told of a Cobalt Chinaman who was a winner in the Irish sweepstakesâ€"one of the few in the North to have that luck this year. And now along comes George and Charlie Wen. part owners of the King Edward hotel «formerly the Prince of Wales ho.eli. who were also lucky ticket holders in the Irish sweepstakes. They won a hundred pounds between them.‘ which means they will have about $250 each in Canadian money. “Nothing at all!" was the airy re- joinder when they were asked if they were excited to receive the telegram informing them of their good luck. Their ticket did not draw a horse. but they still had good luck in receiving one of the smaller prizes. In passing. it may be said that there is nothing strange about the Chinese in this town being lucky. Few tickets are sold that they don‘t take a. chance. and with so many chances taken. they should be winners often enough. A very successful spaghetti supper was held in the new Italian Sacred Heart church on Wednesday evening commencing at 5 p.m. and continuing until 11 p.m. About eleven hundred plates of the famous Italian spaghetti were served to the townfolks who thoroughly enjoyed the supper. Andy Cangiano‘s band supplied dinner music from seven o‘clock until nine. when Mr. Pappone and his band took over the musical entertainment. The event. was conducted under the auspices of the societies of the church. those in charge being Mrs. N. Mascioli and Mrs. R. Gent-ib. The men of the parish were in charge of the hall.

Bette was attired in a white satin tuxedo and presented an intri- cate tap routine. while Jean performed a military tap. Another interesting item on the programme was an accordion solo by Rae Peters. Community sing- ing brought a great deal of merriment. Miss Georgina Luxton whose wed- ding will ‘take place in the middle of November. resigned from the position of secretary of the club.

Albert Ansara. Third avenue mer- chant. objected to it being placed in such a position as to inconvenience him and his business. Ansara said that it was impossible to get wood into his. corner building with the stand in its present position. Furthermore. the view of a store that he rented was blocked. He. had come to council a long time ago and it had had a year in which to take some ac- tion. The merchant. suggested that. the stand be moved to the corner of Second avenue and Pine streets. It would not. inconvenience anyone there and would be assured of a good business from Moneta. ”If you were opening up a business would you open it there“ asked the mayor. That, objected Councillor Cousins. was an unfair question. Ansara was a taxpayer and deserved some consider- ation from the town. The site of the Institute building had been donated by the town. He. continued Ansara. was not con- sulted before the site was chosen and the building erected. When he ob- jected to members of council at that time. he could not get a hearing at all as an election was. on. When he ap- peared before the council the last time. all the members seemed to agree with him. He was assured that it would be removed in two or three months. ing the goat.
