purchased, and tells what is to
be done with the revenue from
the meters.
Let's take a look at the meters.
Up at tho top, covered by a
slight hood, Is the coin slot.
Twelve minutes of parking time
is ullotcd for euch cent put in
tho machine. On the meter Is
a list of the rates:
1 cent for 12 minutes
2 cents for 24 minutes
3 cunts for 3tl minutes
4 cents for 48 minutes
3 cents, or one nicklu, for one
hour. .
To Insert each coin, place It
on tho tip of your forefinger
and Uiruil beneath the hood.
Twist the finger around and push
until tho coin is ugalnst tne duck
of the slot, then let it drop.
After each coin is deposited
take the crank bundle and turn
In a clockwise direction. Arrows
ure stamped on the back of the
meter to show which way to
turn. On the front of the meter
a large red turning plate will un
cover the amount of minutes, for
the coin deposited,
If pennies are being used and
more than 12 minutes desired
unother cent Is inserted in the
slot and the operation repeated,
each penny uncovering 12 more
minutes on the diul.
There are 007 of the meters
being installed in the downtown
area of the city. Twelve of
these will be a different type
meter, however, six of them reg
istering only 12 minutes, and an
other six which register up lo
12 minutes'. These are being
placed in spots where only short

The letter of the ordinance Is
going to be enforced to the
fullest extent, according to
Police Chief Orville Hamilton.
In regarding tho manner of
parking, Hamilton states that
every vehicle Is to be parked
so that its front bumper is even
with the meter. Motor vehicles
which use more than one alloted
parking space must place both
meters in operation, the one in
the space they occupy and the
one for the space which they
overlap.
Only three loading zones have
been designated, one in front of
the Western Union, another at
Herman's Mcnstore and a third
at the gas company. Parking In
any other unmetered space la
absolutely prohibited. Humilton
tinted also that double narking
Is definitely out, officers have
been ordered to issue a ticket to
anyone found double parking.
The meters will be in opera
tion every day between the hours
of 9 a. m. arm o p. m. excepi

Chief Hamilton added that two
men on tho force have been de
tailed to patrol and enforce
