shop was on Kingston
Street behind Dunlop's
drug store. He belonged
to the Kippen gun club
and most of his
customers were also
interested in guns and
gun talk.
Bill Moore's shop was
across the road from
Lumby's shop, He was an
outspoken man and his
shop was a=type of "news
stand", says Mr.
McConnell, If you wanted
the latest news and'
opinions on it, you went to
Bill Moore's shop to get
your.hair cut.
Bing Bowen had a shop
located about where the
People's stdre is now. A
billard- -parlor —an.d.
bowling alley were under
the same roof so he drew
clientele from those two
sports.
Percy Johnston was
"quite a character"
according to Mr.
McConnell. This barber
was big on horse racing
and pigeon racing too!
Pigeon racing was "quite
a thing in Goderich atone
tinge" explains Mr.
McConnell. The pigeons
were shipped from the
CNR station to the East
or West Coast and were
timed on how long it took
them to return , to
Goderich. Men interested
in horse or pigeon racing
could usuallyy be found
getting their hair cuts at
Percy Johnston's shop.
John Moss' barber shop
was located in his home
on East ,Street but was
moved uptown later. It
was connected with a
grocery store.
Jim " Reid was a
"refined gentleman"
type of man, says Mr.
McConnell and he had his
own clientele in his shop
on Hamilton Street.
The remaining barbers
of that time were Sandy
Powell and Ben Sheppard
who also both had shops
on Hamilton Street and
Vic Harrison whose shop
was on West Street.
Mr, McConnell says he
can't recall any barber
shops in the north east
end of town at that time.
In those days, you could
get a hair cut for 35 cents
and a shave for 15 cents
or "the whole works for •
half a dollar" as Mr.
McConnell would say.
And while you were in the
shop, you could. pick up
all sorts of news and
information. Going to the
barber shop was a real
_"social.. thing", explains
Mr. McConnell.
Twelve barbers may
seem like a lot for one
small town, but they all
made a living, according
to Mr. "McConnell. Their
shops would even stay
open.' late on Saturday
nights and they would be
"packed" he recalls.
Of course Saturday
nights in Goderich used to
"really be something",
says Mr. McConnell who
adds that he . needed a.
staff of four on those
nights to handle his own
business at Craigies'
News Stapd.
With hair cuts fewer
and further between
these days, barbers are
not in such great demand
anymore but I'm sure
there are many people in
town .like Mr. McConnell
who 'remember when
barbers here were in
their heyday.
