where a great deal of traffic itf had,
in order to permit free passage, the
authorities have found necessary to
require parallel parking; this means
your car should be parked parallel
with the curb, reasonably close to it,
-
and within the white lines painted on
the street. Present parallel parking
areas include Market Street from
Main to the H and T C depot, also
Main Street from the Simon Theatre
to the G. C. and S. F. depot. Other
areas will be designated a* traffic dd*
mands, white lines painted on the
strcM and “par*”^l parking” signs
placed upon the curbs.
Parking space reserved for the use
of customers is permitted certain soda
fountains and other business estab-
lishments. This means that you must
not drive your car upon and park it
within such space unless you axe
shopping in that store, and as soon as
you get through MOVE ON. TH»

No cars should be parked within
six feet of a fire hydrant. The rea-
son is obvious: in case of a fire there
would be difficulty in moving your
car in time for the pumper to con-
nect with the plug and might result
in an accident for which you would
be absolutely to blame, or delay, the

haste,

dation and hedging was renewed to-
day and market’ declined further sell-
ing down close to 19 cents for Oct. at
one time. The weather was unfavor-
able owing to continued rains in
nearly all sections except south Tex-
as and the forecast indicates more
showery cloudy weather. Mr. Hes-
ter’s report of spinners taking* was
also favorable.
The market, however, was inclined
td disregard all of these factors owing
to desire of tired longs to liquidate
cotton bought above 20 cents. Weak-
ness in stocks and pressure from
hedging itf said to have caused Wall
Street liquidate quite a good deal of
its long holdings. Mr. Hester report-
ed a heavy movement into sight but
this was expected in view of the early
maturity of the crop.
