Chief Of Police Black. Mayor Hyde
and King street merchants of Char
lesion have devised an ordinance
whereby no parking of AUTOMOBILES
on King" street between Calhoun and
Broad streets will be allowed. How
ever. the cars may be parked on
side streets until their owners are
ready for them. An ordinance to
this effect would prove most advan-
taEeous in Sumter In relieving conges-
