As I see it, most of the beer industry behaves itself perfectly all right . . . but every now and then, I guess, a retailer comes along who runs a place that isnt up to scratch . . . sort of like a wayward ut kid. So like Dad Hoskins' family, the brewers and beer distributors One day Dad got a bright idea. He called the whole family to- have united together in an indu- gether for a special meeting at the dinner table. He told them he was tired of checking up on them all the time.. He said he thought they were old enough now to check up on themselves. The older children would watch the younger ones. They would have meetings every so often and hand out rewards or punishments. V Well, it was a crazy idea but the kids liked it and they started behaving better than they ever had before. The idea worked and Dad finally did get a little time for himself. stry v 8 elf -- regulation program to help the proper authorities clean up or close up offending retail places.
