‘OLD NELL’ GOES
(IV.Z. Press Assn.— Copyright) SYDNEY, April 2. After having served countless beers in 30 years, but never touching a drop herself, a barmaid in Sydney this week served her last glass. She is Mrs Nell Stokes, known affectionately to her customers as “Old Nell,” and described by all as the perfect barmaid.
In her 30 years behind the bar of the Unity Hall Hotel, at Balmain, a waterfront suburb, she has never been known to drink, smoke, lose her temper or miss a day’s work. And her tips she contributed to charity.
