around The
Square

and regulations have been adopted by
the city fathers and will be enforced
just as soon as the auto owners are

parking into the curb. When once
started this will be great help to the
merchants around the square, as many
people who drive their cars up in
front of their stores do not attempt
to park into the curb. If their Gus
toners want something in the store
they are obliged to leave their cars,
in many cases, in the center of the
square, but if all cars were parked
to the curb it would give the square
more "city" appearance and at the
same time enable every one to get
their cars out without trouble.
