Parking Charge Is Dismissed A truck driver, charged with parking. his _vehicle • on the side- walk, was cleared in magistrate's court here Thursday. Defence counsel Frank Donnelly Submitted that if the truck driver was there for the purpose of, load- ing or unloading, he wasnot park- ed within the meaning of the by- law. Magistrate D. E. Holmes gave the driver the benefit of the,,tipubt, but advised him not to do it again. With -a -ktile change- the- ward, ing, the' charge might. have a dif- ferent outcome next 'time, he com- mented. The truck, owned by a transport. firm, was -parked on the sidewalk on 'South street, beside the{hotel, on January 28. The driver said he had to deliver 110 cases of canned goods weighing about 3,200 pounds. Beea,use the alley was ' full of snow and ice, it was necessary to•' drive up on the, sidewalk to de- liver, he stated, Magistrate Holmes .termed the existing town '` traffic bylaw "weird," but, as he recalled, it was drawn up at a time when horses and buggies were still a popular form or tf hsportation.. "I haven't seen any sign - of the new by-law," added the magistrate but he understood from what ap- peared In the newspaperthat Town Council is in the proces5 of 'giving birth to a new by-law. The manner in '.which vehicles parked and manoeuvered on- local streets on Thursday—the day the' new store opened on the Square— was weird, -too, . the magistrate re- marked. A possible explanation was of- fered by Mr.' Donnelly: "There were some free pounds of coffee, your worship. Five hundred pounds, I'm told," said Mr. Donnelly, smiling.
