"They should just leave the businesses alone and let them see fit to do what‘s best for their customers. "It should be freedom of chorce. Everpadult has the right to choose iihat they want for themsefves." Doing her part to comâ€" ply, Adlys said she has warned smokers to butt out. But, she said, she also does what she can to make these customers still feel they can have a good time. Despite her efforts, since the implementation of the law almost two weeks ago, Adlys said she has watched business in her entertainment lounge decrease by at least 50 per cent. "People just don‘t bother coming in if they can‘t do what they enjoy doing," she explained. "People are just coming in, eating and running out the door. There is no linâ€" gering time to relax anymore "They are now sitting on pins and needles, always tumnâ€" ing their heads around worried someone‘s going to come in They can‘t relax." Unlike Adlys, Tony Earner "My staff are crying because it is so dead and there are no tips. And these are people who get their bread and butter from general manager of Loose Changes Lowies restaurant and bar on University Avenue, said his business really hasn‘t slipped with the arrival of the bylaw But, he added, bar staff has not used excessive force where the new rules are concerned "We‘ve found it hard to stap them (smokers}," Earner said "We tell them they‘re not supâ€" posed to be smoking and they‘ll put it out; but you might find them smoking somewhere else five minutes later." And given the fact that many bar customers have consumed, in some cases, quite a bit of this place." â€"Sonia Adlys, Huether Hotel (Continued from page 1) alcobol at the time of the warnâ€" ing, Earner said he refuses to put his staff into a situation that could turn violent.

"And these are peoâ€" ple who get their bread and butter from this place And me, how am 1 going to pay ty taxes if things keep going like this? All of this really breaks my heart "One thing they can be sure of is that I‘m not just going to sit still on this and wait for something disastrous to hapâ€" pen." Overall, â€" however, Earner said most cusâ€" tomers have been coopâ€" erauve when they are told to butt out. He also added that his establishâ€" ment is now boasting 100 per cent customer cooperation in the restaurant area. Adlys only wishes the bylaw has brought her the same rate of success.
