On Bride Paths

An epidemic of lockjaw among
the horses using the bride paths
in the public parks has started the
officials to work on the problem of
getting, the old nails out of the
ashes which are used as a road

After trying human labor for sew
eral days, when six men were sent
along the bride paths on their
hands and knees in an effort to
recover the nails, the public build
ings and parks shops have been
set to work on an electro-magnet.
This piece of machinery is near
ly completed and will be tried out
in a day or two. 1t consists of a
long electromagnetic about four
inches wide, mounted on two
wheels, The current will be fur

paths, and it is the belief that prac-
tically all of the nails which have
been causing trouble will be re-
moved. If the machine is as sue

found to be by the roads depart

Will be sent over automobile
