Would Mark Auto
Parking Line on
S. First Avenue

| NJ. w. Hovey, superintendent of the
former Marshalltown Light, Power and
Railway Company. comes forward with
suggestion by mail from Chillicothe
Mo, relative to the marking of the
South First avenue boulevard pave
ment as guide for the parking OF
automobiles.
MIR. Hovey was moved TO make the
suggestion upon reading II the mark
ing by arrows on the pa;ement, the
course to be taken by vehicles, and
thinks that while the city Is investing
in paint and labor il Nigh. so little
further to advantage. MIR. Hovey's let
ter follows:
Editor Times Republican: l noticed
in Your valuable paper OF July IA an
item that appeared TO me very time
ly. and / think the work could be car
ried a little farther to good advantage.
il have reference to the city officials
having arrows painted IN the pave
ment at the principal street intersec>
tions indicating the course vehicles
should take in turning from one street
into another
Now while the city officials are
thus equipped with the paint brushes,
and painters, il appears . the writer
that the part OF the pavement on South
First avenue, from Main TO Church
streets. now used for barking auto
mobiles. also should be designated by a
tour or siN-inch strip of White paint
on the pavement.
"Of course the electroliers and park
ingS around same serve Il a certain
extent as a guide to the autoist who
wishes 10 park his car. but if one Will
find these are hardiN Sufficient. The
autoist VINO comes up 10 park his car
after TWO or more have been parked
next TO the electroliers uses the parked
cars a a guide for parking his car and
when ii happens that the other cars
have run a little TOO far snd he also
runs little in advance OF them, the
autos soon encroach on the passage
way in the street that should be left
for traffic north and south. With the
strips OF white paint that would al
ways be in view for guide, II seems
10 me a much more uniform line Of
parking would be established and the
street remain very much less OBJ
structed. A white strip also should
De painted across the ENDS at Main
and church streets 70 indicate where
the autos could stand and not interfere
with other traffic crossing First ave
nue. east and west.

MAY TRANSPLANT LEG BONE.
Adelbert Fields, Of Collins. 20 Undergo
Unusual OPERATION


Adelbert Fields, the 14-year old Coll
ins lad who was injured VI eek ago at
Melbourne when he had his right leg
broken and lacerated terribly in a
haying accident. will very likely under
go the unusual operation of having
transplated in his injured leg live bone
from the left leg. II Fields ever has a
good leg. and surgeons are finally able
to save the leg that was hurt the boy
will be compelled to submit 10 the
transplating operation.
The lad is making very good re-
covery at the Deaconess hospital
where he has been since the accident
The injury to the leg was fearful one
The fie bones were broken and forced thru
the flesh which. in addition to the
puncture Of the bones, was penetrated
by the hook Of the doubletree when
the team Fields was driving became
frightened and started To run. The
bones of the leg were spiintered badly.
dirt was ground into the wound. and
the circulation of the leg was retarded
30 seriously that the front part Of
the leg Is now sloughing away.
For a time it was feared that the
leg could not be saved, but the line of
bone is gradually becoming more dis
tinct, and If nothing arises to interfere
in about two months the transplanting
operation can be done. One,half of
the tibia of the left leg will be used
to provide the new bone in the injured
right leg.

manner.
Another bright spot on the program
Is the appearance Of Alsey Sexton

Sexton has a most pleasing voice and
his numbers are bright and new.
