Fast Moving Car

Billy Oliver. two-year-old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. K. Oliver of 416
Dunbar Drive, sustained bruises and
decorations about his head and
body Sunday before last when he
fell from the car as the divers

MIR. Oliver was driving at about
fifty miles an hour when Billy
opened the door and was thrown
out.
Immediately upon reaching
Miami, he was taken to a doctor
and numerous X-rays taken. These
revealed that there were no frac-
lures, however, Billy waG suffering
from rather deep flesh wounds.
Although he is still deeply swath-
ed in bandages, Billy is quite cheer

received Communications by the
score. At the same time they
received couple tons of nickIes
and pennies.
Now, however, the Street
Commissioners have gone COM
pIeteIy hay-wire on parking me-
tiers. All one has to do is to
look North, East, South or West
and 10 and behold, nothing but
bright, new shiny gadgets meet
his optics. The town is laid low
with a severe and painful at
tack of "meteritis."
Why, | can remember the day
when only two cent stamp
was required to mail a letter.
Later Jim Farley boosted the
tariff to three cents and ! be-
iieVed then that that amount
would be tops. But it was no
dice. The Commissioners spot
ted that wide-open space in
front of Uncle SamuePs struc-
ture and pounced on it like a
cat diving on starving, de-
fenseIess cat. In went the me-
tiers and now if want to pa
tronIze my Uncle it costs mo
dough. Feeding those penny
monsters for the privilege of
gong into my own country's
property just doesn't make
sense to me, but evidently it
does make scents" for the Com
mlssioners. So don't be sur
prlsed if the boys at city hall
build a corral in front of the
post office and charge you an
other copper to get out.
Methinks that around Santa
Claus time they'll assign cop
IN front of the Post Office and
supply him with few thousand
tags Imagine trying to get in
l'ne during that rush and dash
ing out to your car in IL min
utes!
It hasn't been so many moons
ago that the weary motorist
would rather beat up his wife
tnan park opposite the Pioneer
TOOK and Ladder Company
Hall. Now the Commissioners
are inviting US to finger in this
convenient area. At a price, of
course. One of these days that
Dig fire truck will arrive at
IRE decorated with couple of
passenger automobiles and
fIoek of meters.
Now that the streets are thor
0usnIy covered with meters |
would suggest that the Commits
sloners start on the alleys. Of
course there isn't room for two
cars to pass in our alleys, but
VINO cares? AS the matter now
stands the town isn't getting a
penny out of all this space?
