STONES
ARE MENACE
Merchants Ask Heavy Traf-
fic TO Use Prince
Street
Small Stones Are Punched Between
Tires and Pavement and Hurled
Toward Windows

Merchants along King street have
requested dealers in gravel and other
building material to direct trucks
loading i'm their yards to use Prince
street rather than King street III
passing through the main part of the
city. This request has been made be
cause of several broken windows
along the business section of King
street which have resulted from the
gravel. witch has Sifted from the load,
being caught by passing automobiles
and hurled with much force toward
the pavement. X. + Knight and
Thomas Hoy have recently had their
windows broken.
Another danger Of this which is
even worse than the breaking Of
glass is the danger i'm which the ped
eStrianS are placed. These small
stones are hurled with such a force
that ii might result seriously
should one Of them hit Il paSSer-by.
Mothers with young babies do not
feel safe to roll their children along
the street for fear one of these
stones might hit them and MAIN
them FOR life or even Kill them.
Prince street is newly improved
AMI the sitting of the Gravel from a
lead does not carry with it the same
dangers as on King street because of
the different construction Of the road
bed
Divertiug the heavy traffic to the
Prince street route would also re
heve the congeSted condition which is
encounted on King street at certain
times ot e&ch day.
