Hotel Ice Tea Rule
Has Been Modifies
In view of the fact that other states
are not observing it, it has been
deemed best to modify the Ice Tea
ruling, effective at once, as follows:
The serving of Ice Tea at supper,
or the evening meal, will be permitted
provided only two teaspoonsful of
sugar are used at the meal per person,
and not only two glasses of tea per
person are served. Use sufficient ice
»
to thoughly cool the tea, but do no
waste the ice.
After July 1, you must purchas
| Sugar on certificate, on a basis of !
pounds only for 90 meals for eacl
person served. If you use thi
amount before the expiration of th
thirty days you will be without suga
in your esablishment for the rest o
the month.
Chili with beans may be served an;
Complaints are constantly reaching
this office that public eating places
all over the state are serving warm 1
drinking water to guests. See that
the water is thoroughly cooled before
serving, and use if necessary in as
limited a way as possible to cool wa
t°r curing the heated period.
Yours faithfully,
E. R. WILES,
Chairman Hotel and Restaurant Com
mil'ce.
