He has threatened more than one barber shop proprietor with a swspension of Ii- cenes if things are not cleaned up and some radical changes made. He is. ex- maning closely the number of towels used and the condition of these. He is also recommending to those who haven't hot water in their shops to see to 1t and have it, for the convenience and safety of their customers. An examination of candidates for bar- bers’ licenses will be held at an early date. Mr. Landers will preside.
