PROPOSES
Measure To Regulate Sale
Of Fire Arms

Cleveland, o., Nov. 17--Representa-
tive-elect Robert Prosser in the next
Ohio legislature will back the law to
prohibit the indiscriminate sale Of
firearms.
Prosser believes IN applicant. to buy
a gun should satisfy state examiner
as to his knowledge Of laws regulating
the carrying and use Of guns. He al
so requests that all sales of firearms
should be registered, and the name
and address of the purchaser filed
with state firearms bureau.
County Prosecutor Cline charges
the present unrestricted selling of
guns was responsible for 20 per cent
of the shooting crimes committed in
Cuyahoga county last year. Not in
cluded In this percentage is the large
number of holdups or house burglar
les.
Figures compiled by Cline show
that out of 101 murders reported by
the coroner in the last three years so
were by gun shots.
Hundreds of cases of so-called
'self-defense' result from the use Of
the gun where there is no need" Cline
said Wednesday. Sixty per cent of
homicides are due to the use of con.
cealed weapons, either guns or knives.
The city has passed laws prohibiting
the people carrying concealed weap-
ons, yet the people still carry them.
The city has also made an ordinance
prohibiting the exhibition of guns in
store windows. This law has not been

CLOCK
Owned By Mansfield Man
Over A Century Old

]. ]. King, the well-known insur-
ance man, is the possessor Of clock
which is one hundred years of age.
1t was made in 1910, in which year 1t
was purchased by the grandfather Of
Mr.. King. 1t has been In the pos
session Of the family ever since. The
father of Mr.. King was five years old
at this time.
The clock was brought to Mansfield
in 1916, making the long trip from the
east in large covered wagon, Of a
type no longer in use, but which be-
cause Of it's large capacity and almost
unbreakable construction was gener-
ally used for purposes of transporta-
ton in those days, when railroads
we're as yet undreamed of. The clock
sustained no injury on its long jour.
ney.
On the death of his grandfather the
clock passed on to the father of Mr..
King and then to Mr.. King himself, he
being the only son.
The clock is still in perfect running
order. 1t has been knocked over but
without damage, the glass plate which
covers the front being still unbroken
and the identical one which the max
ers in 1910 fitted into place.
Throughout, the wheels are hand
cut with the painstaking care with
which the old-time mechanic did his
work. 1t is eight feet high, is shap-
ed like the cross section of l rail,
and is about two and one-half feet
across at the bottom and nearly as
wide at the top. 1t shows the time,
the moons phases and the day of the
month, proving that our ancestors
were pretty well advanced in clock
construction even in 1910.
1t has been decided that on the
death of Mr.. King, the clock shall be-
come the property of his oldest son,
and so remain in the family as long
as it may last.-Mansfield Shield
