Since Park avenue was paved with concrete wood blocks it has been a most popular driveway, both for the autoists and with the parties who drive horses.
 It is police court record that some autoists have speeded on this thor oughfare, and have passed the speed limit even to the point where it was dangerous to cross the street when the speed bugs were out, but these are hut isolated instances, and for the most part Park avenue is protect ed from too great speed test by it's several sharp curves on the lower end.
 At any rate there have been many tire punctures recorded from Park avenue recently, and the autoists must either receive protection through arrest of parties guilty ot such all act or they must take very many chances with each visit to that sec tion being paid for in the price of s puncture repair.
