Various but vague opinions are adâ€" ‘vanced by the pickers for the price slashing. Some were inclined to beâ€" lieve that they are being exploited by The biggest year in the history of the shackâ€"town blueberry plains was in 1928 when a New Liskeard canning facâ€" tory bought all available berries at ten cents a pound. On this basis the pickers r:ceived from $1.50 to $1.60 a basket, Many were able to make enough to keep themselves all winter, one famâ€" ily alone quitting the patch with earnâ€" ings of $1,000. The poor price of berries has been a source of consistentâ€"complaint. At the start of the season, the pickers were receiving $1 per basket but this figure has been reduced iuntil toâ€"day the preâ€" vailing rate is fifty cents. Of this amount the inhabitants receive only forty cents, having to pay ten cents for each basket. Last year the lowest price offer>d by the buyers was seventy cents a basket. Crown Attorney S. A. Caldbick has been consulted by District Sanitary Inâ€" spector Hugh McIntyre, of Kirkland Lake, with regard to closing the camp. He advissd the authorities that they might go ahead and close the area according to law but pointed out that even with the assistance of Provincial Police, some difficulty might be exâ€" perienced. Disheartened by conditions in genâ€" eral, many of the pickers have packed up their few belongings and moved out but even in spite of their hardships more than a thousand are sticking it cut hoping that the end of the season may bring better returns. Dysentery is taking a dGdaily toll among the erstwhile inhabitants of ‘"*Blueberry City". Seven are incarâ€" cerated in hospital in Matheson and many others are treatinz themselves for the ailment in the rude shacks of which the soâ€"called town is composed. Disgusted with prevailing prices and their ranks riddled by illness, the anâ€" nual trek of blueberry pickers to the sand plain shackâ€"town tweonty miles east of Matheson, is generally regarded this year by the inhabitants as a "washâ€" out." Population of "Blueberry City" Dwindles to Mere 1,000. Many Leave Area on Account of Poor Price for Fruit. Some Claim Exploitation by Buyers in Interview With Representative of The Advance. There are several summer rules which every woman and girl should follow regarding hair care. Here they are: Always keep ycur hair covered while you are under intense sun. Blueberry Shack Town Squalid and Disgusted Essential Care During the summer brush your hair daily. If it is too oily or too dry use a tonic just as you would during the colder months. A shampoo once every two weeks or once every ten days is necessary. Between shampoos be sure to rinse out the salt water if you get it wet bathing. Salt water on the hair acts like minute magnifying crystal, attracting the sun and havinz great bleaching .power. If you allow your hair to dry with it on, while the sun beats down, you probably will fade or bleach it beyond reconditioning! ick any more berries than would keep In a straw vote election when the hem in the bare necessities of life.| town and surrounding settlements were ‘arious but vague opinions are adâ€"|at their height, Joe Belair, well known anced by the pickers for the price Lowther character, was accorded the ashing. Some were inclined to beâ€" | office of mayor. Joe, who is at "Blueâ€" eve that they are being exploited by | berry City" for the sixteenth year in the buyers, others just shrug theirsuccession, is unofficial head of the Scmchosw when bathing days come along the majsrity of women feel they ; don‘t have to care for their hair. “In' the fall T"l get a few zood treatments," they promise themselves, without realâ€" izing that possibly the damage done : during the summer cannot be cor recbâ€"d by a few special treatments! | It is gocd to remember that your hair goes to the beach too. Right along . with you. It can‘t take the sun and the water any better than your skin. It requires the same care and protection. j FRANCISKA GAAL selected a huge, loose fitting hood for beach wear. It not only protects hher hair from the sun but it also covers the back of her neck and across her shoulders where constant sunning teughens the skin. YOUR HAIR GOES TO THE BEACH TOO! Two stores supply the needs of the schack swellers in the way of food and clothing. Business is largely on a barâ€" ter basis, berries being exchanged for food. Prices of: merchandise however are considerably higher than "outside," the increase on some articles being as high as a hundred per cent. The town boasts restaurants, one of which, ‘"‘Tne Blueberry Lunch," is operâ€" ated by Alf Leblond, 47 Wende avenue, Timmins. _ Business was brisk during the early days of the town but lately things have been falling off. Mr. Leâ€" blond plans to return home next week, he told a representative of The Adâ€" vance who paid a visit to the blueberry universe. "Blueberry" is a veritable melting pot of wanderers but a considerable number are sufficiently affluent to afford cheap cars. Odd parties are there also in betâ€" ter class machines but these are largeâ€" ly people who joined the blueberry trek as a vacation. While men predominâ€" ate there is also a considerable number of women and children. Whole famâ€" ilies, the majority of whom spent last winter on relief, have taken up their abode in the town. shoulders, more or less resigned to a condition that apparently has no soluâ€" tion or redress. The main camp of several,; located around the picturesue shores of Blueâ€" berry Lake, is a disjointed series of shambling shacks. Every conceivable type of material is used in ‘their conâ€" struction from discarded awnings and tar paper to nondescript lumber and sheet iron. . Actually one of the. prinâ€" cipal "buildings‘" on theâ€"main street of "Blueberry City" has a ‘complete metal roof. Gangling birch polées form the framework for the numercus shacks but a few of the "citizens‘‘ have been living in tents. From the standpoint of sanitation the camps are a veritable breeding zround for all or any type of disease. Reguâ€" lations are nonâ€"existent and carelbossâ€" ness seems to be the keynote. A few enjoy the luxury of a camp cot but the majority sleep on the ground with dried grass as a mattress. If you can get away with it put off getting a new perman:nt wave until the middle of September or the first of October. , Loet those mistreated dgdried hair ends grow out and be cut off! cate, Inc.) And summer is a grand time to let your back hair line grow in.‘ Don‘t clip it or let your hairdresser clip it. You will want a brushed up hairâ€"do this fall and how can you have it if your back hair line looks llke whlsk brush ? Try waterâ€"proofing your hair before taking a dip by spraying it with one of those lotions. That helps to keep it dry and it also prevents rapid fading if the sun reaches it. Have your hair set or if you require a quick darying one. Rather than too frequent soap shamâ€" poos cleanse it occasionally with a light tonic. If you expose hair to the sun at all it should be brushed out fluffy and freeâ€"not set as you normally wear it. So that the sun can penetrate it all and reach the entire surface of your scalp. If hair is dry, keep a litle tonic or olive oil massaged into the scalp. N:ver expos>o tinted hair to the sun‘s rays.
