IoiIh of IMculon
All thl mnin aim ut after the coun
cil and some ncorii of merchant anil
Jitney men It ail tatknl tho matter
ovnr for two or three hour. There
wan much argument and tome ro
crimination. Mayor Htruhlo undertook to tell
how faithfully ho had unforced the
parking provUlon-ntturlii', hnd de
cided It waa tho right thine to do.
"It took you u Iohk limn to de
chin." said Councilman Upp, adding
tliat parkliiK regulations had liven In
tho coilo for two or Ihrvo years and
the mayor had shown no enforcement
until thin week.
"Wo started In enforcing thn Inw
Iat wcvk, Mr. Upp." nsscrtod tho
mayor stoutly, and utter some grop
ing for flguros proved It wan Junt 10
day tinforo slnco ho Issued thu
order.
I'pp Hpeak I'lnlnly
Upp spoko a piece of hln mind lo
thu crowd. I!u told Ilium bluntly
that tliuy hnd sought tho SO mlnuto
parking law. Now Ihey found It wan
not worklnK n thoy hoped thut It
was conflicting with their solflsh In
terest. Regardless Ihorcforo of
whether It was Reed for tho gonoral
welfare they wuro wanlltiK It repeal
ed right away.
"Tho council hnH been greatly cen
sured slnco I ho Houston hotel fire,"
aald Mr. Upp, "because wo did not
nana ordinances recommended by thn
Htate'flio murtihal. Yet when wo
trlml to Jin thoMi ordinance wo
weru met by nil norls of pressure and
protests from men who said It would
ruin tholr business, Tho hiiiiio Hurt
of nltuallon ronfronlH uh hero, your
Hellish InturoKtH urn at Hlnkii, and
whether thin ordlnnuco In Reed or
had from n community ntandpolnt Is
not coiicurnlnK you ut nil."
Mr. Upp wild more In tlio hiiiiio
voln. After relieving hln mind ho
nald that If tho people wunlud tho
ordlnnuco changed ho would voto to
chonKo It, but ho thouRht It was a
bad thing. Other councllmon appar
ently shared hln opinion.

The protestants proaonted a peti

tached, roprosonlatlvo business men
on Main and Sixth itreots.
' Tho pot It Ion provided an Intrlcato
ohodulo of one hour and a halt limit
to dny time parking, two hours from
7 o'clock to midnight, and 10 or 11
minutes from midnight to morning.
After tho connclt had milled over tho
schodulo for a couple of houre and
reduced It to tho form of a resolu
tion, a volo was takon. Colvln and
Upp voted for It. Tho mayor broke
tho tlo with a nogatlvo voto.

tho opponents, would cause otornal

At sunset tonight begins tho Jew
ish fast of Yom Klppur, tflo most
sacred of observances oT this ancient
people. Tho fast continues for 24
hours, until sundown Wednesday.
Yom Klppur Is known as the "Day
of Atonement" by the Jows through
out tho world. From sunset ot the
Slst to sunset of the 22nd the ob-
konant Jew neither cats nor drinks.
but devotes tho day to fervent wor
ship. Yom Klppur Is distinctive
among Jewish holidays, for It Is not
"associated with nature or with his
tory. It Is a day for the searching ot
the heart to find peaco with God.
The fast originated In Biblical
times, and is described in the six
teenth chapter of the book of Leviti
cus. In those days the people fasted
and afflicted themselves while the
high priest made atonement for the
entire bouse of Israel. This atone
ment was made In ancient fashion by
sacrifices, and especially by the sym
bolic rite of driving the scapegoat
Into the wilderness to bear away the
sins of The People.
Now prayers take the place ot sac
rifice. In modern Judaism, prayer
Is the light form ot approaching God.
Jews dvot the "Day of AtonG-
inent" to prayers for the forgiving of
their sins.
The county fair committee is urg
ing all exhibitors to place their dis
