New Looker Opens 'a A new business began in Hay- field ' Thursday morning when Charles Scotchmer opened his new locker which will be quite an asset to the village and sur- rounding community. ' "Charlie" is no newcomer to business in Bayfield,. having op- erated the Bayfield Hardware for 15 years. In 1942 he saw the need for a locker in the village but then 'wartime regulations came into force which prevented the building of lockers containing less than 500 boxes. He did well in business here end he felt that the money he had made should be re -invested for the benefit of this district. So in March of this year he applied for a permit from the Department of Highways to build a locker plant on lot 262 at the top of the hill on the East side of the highway. It was granted in June and then he had to get a permit from the Depart- ment of Health. It is constructed accdfding to regulations, with solid cement basement arid the walls of the second storey of cinder block, with a frontage of 21 feet and 44 feet deep. There are* at pres- ent 120 all steel lockers of 63' cubic foot content, most of which have been rented. Owing to the shortage of steel the remaining 130 boxes will not be installed until March 1, 1951. It is equip- ped with a Universal cooler and deep freeze unit. According to regulations all meat must be hung in the chill room before being cut up and wrapped. Then if is placed on what is known as the gold plate for 24 hours where the temperature is 20-30 degrees below zero, before being ,stored in the lockers. Melvin Davidson, George Weston and Ken Brandon did the concrete work and erected the walls. Myron Butler did the carpentry work. The Armstrong Cork Company, Toronto, did the insulating and the E. Blake Company, London, installed the refrigeration. And just to fin- ish it off Charlie painted the floor in clover green. We wish him well in this venture. L'OND<'ESB;OR0 (By Jack Webster) Mr's.
