will be given standard hotels but certain conditions must be com plied with according to the regulations those who propose to drink the new 44 beer must be seated at a table in front of a window and in full view of the general public the front room of the mansion house could be cut out next the street and glass put in to comply with this require ment but to sit there in full view will make even the old soaks hesi tate about sitting down to the suds long enough to get used to such conditions in cities where one neighbor doesnt know another it may be different but in small towns where a man is known by his deeds its going to take a hardboiled to successfully sit it out with the women and children peering in and ready to spread the sad tidings to his wife and all his creditors some hotels have even refused to make this change in their buildings claim ing that premier ferguson should have given the privilege of selling this beer to the green houses in the first place if too many hotels re fuse to handle the juicy hops the claim that ferguson is making a beer garden out of ontario will not be substantiated it may be the thin edge of the wedge but we take consolation in the report
