tain success. We have discovered
what the missing quantity is. 1t is
plan under which we can work
without duplication of effort and
under which each worker recognizes
fixed responsibility. Experienced
organizations throughout the cOun-
try employ a simple plan, modelled
after the administration of success
full business houses, which is get
ting results elsewhere and will be
introduced in the new commercial
club.
"All of the plans in the world,
however, will not succeed without
support and cooperation. Whenever
the business and professional men
of this city take off their coats
and throw themselves into the
work of building up their commu-
nifty, casting aside all petty jeal-
ousies and misunderstanding
something is bound to give way In
favor of mighty step forward.
Paris has everything to make it
the most progressive and richest
city in Kentucky, but it will not
grow until the citizens determine
that they are going to do their part
towards making it grow and unite
solidly to achieve success"

NEW PARKING ORDINANCE
CAUSES MANY ARRESTS

The new parking ordinance passed
at recent meeting Of the City
Council. is being rigidly enforced,
and has been the cause of bringing
to grief a number of auto owners
and drivers. The new measure went
into effect Saturday, when the first
move was made by the police in en-
forcing it.
Instructions were issued by Chief
of Police Link to the police force to
arrest every person who parked an
auto on Main street longer than
thirty minutes. The patrolmen were
furnished card bearing the ordi-
nance in full and accompanied by a.
perforated tag. The tag was mark
ed with the time the machine was
found parked and the license num-
Der of the car. This was placed in
the car, and when the patrolman re-
turned. and the car was still there
over the time limit. the hour was
noted and the owner or driver mott
fled to appear in Police Court.
Saturday afternoon Patrolman
George w. Judy instituted a vigor-
Gus campaign and took four ma
chimes to headquarters and notified
fifty others OF the ordinance. Yes
terday he was again especially vigi-
liant. and served notice on several
owners to appear in Court and stand
the consequences of violation of the
traffic regulations. The campaign
is to continue as long as the ordi-
nance is in effect and some of the
police are determined to see that it
is Obeyed
On the streets intersecting Main,
between Main and Pleasant, ma
chimes may be parked only on the
south side of the street, and be-
tween Main and High streets, on
the north side.
