In our Tuesday's Issue we called attention to the new market of Plyler & Johnson on Midway and in our words of description we said: "It is the most sanitary market we have seen in many a day." Our attention has been called td ' these words, and we consider the language there used an injustice to the other markets In Lancaster. The writer was merely giving a boost to a new business and did not in any way mean to reflect upon the other markets In town. From our frequent visits to all the meat markets in Lancaster we can say to the general public that all are kept in a manner satisfying to any one. We do not In fact know of any fixture of anv kind used In one market which Is not duplicated in the others. We are glad this fact Is true and glad this occasion has presented It b?-ii iu n?y 10 me peopie mm our supply of meat In Lancaster Is handled by men who recognize and obey the laws of sanitation nml for this we should all feel grateful because there are many towns which cannot make this boast. 0 THE) -LANCASTER NEWS, i PERSONALS > i Mr. and Mra.
