I intend to see the ordinance strictly enforced. This includes speeding.” The city ordinance provides that motor cars or vehicles may be parked for only 30 minutes on Center street from the courthouse to the North- western railroad tracks and on Second street from Center to Wolcott streets, according to the police. The old or- dinance said they might be parked only 15 minutes but this was amend- ed to read 30 minutes. By parking is meant running along- side of the curb with the direction of the street and not at an angle of 45 degrees as most cars are parked «it the present. The police made this ee charge of telephone construction. He also drove his car over the line into Holland before turned around by the Dutch authorities. He says the people of Belgium are rapidly cleaning up the devastated sections and are not in want of food. Captain Frisbey’s family is quarter- ed at Fort Russel: now, but he says that he hopes to be back in Casper land from the Rhine to Antwerp, in’ again within a couple of months.
