from Denver Wednesday to pack their - Trump's Ready to Wear.
Tho problem of parking cars in the . milk.
East End Grocery handles fresh
business section is being partially
solved by permitting center parking
on Dewey street between Fourth and
Front a distance of three blocks.
Chief Mccombe'r started In yesterday
to lay out tho park lines, not only
those running north and south but also
providing angling cross lines within
which wheels of an auto must stand.
With this, provision for center parking,
cars will not be allowed to park at the
curb on either side of tho street. So
rapid has been tho Increase of cars
that tho parking of them has become a
problem, and whllo center parking on
Dowoy was inaugurated with reluc
tance, It Is believed It will prove more
satisfactory than curb parking on that
street.

WHEN you buy a used or rebuilt car
from me you buy a car exactly as rep
resented. Many people change models each
year with the result that wo have really
good cars that represent considerable sav
ing to the buyer. Some are entirely rebuilt
making them practically new.
Many people think a good used car will
give more service and is better value than
a new car of a cheaper class.
All cars sold bv us aro guaranteed to be
