Parking Zones Near Pcstof fice Parking zones have been es tablished along the east front of the U. S. postoffice cn North 5th street, as a matter of pro tection and aid to the Platts mouth olunteer fire depart ment, whose station is just across the street from the easr entrance of the federal building. That section of the street that faces the driveway from the fire house has been marked as a non-parking zone, made necessary by the fact that the fire trucks need all the space possible, in case of an alarm, cars parked along Fifth street making it difficult to get out without injury to cars or the lire trucks. Adjoining this no parking zone is a five minute parking sign that also was bad ly needed as parties have been making that an open air garage, parking early in the day, leav ing the cars there for the re mainder of the day and inter fering with the patrons that wish to visit the postoffice. -VOW LOCATED HERE Lt. and Mrs. M.
