SO SAY PHILADELPHIA SHOPPERS Ii:. ,: 1 ' 2 ' ~I ' n ~ lot;: o I' ";~ 2 ' ~ : n ~ .: . ,r·~ n ~ ... . . t t ~ ·~ n Ion,,:.~ ~ ~ ~ LAST week Philadelphia started to enforce a drastic set of parking ~ i ~ laws. Not only must the shopper be barred from many streets, but the ~ ~ I::! crowding of cars on the other streets makes itnecessary to travel blocks

l l ~ to find aplace to park. ~ . .:W

Many out-of-town people, accustomed to driving in for their pur- ~ t; chases, have been compelled to avoid the big shopping centres. It has IIt

been found that Narberth's business section, with plenty of room to~

a park, and with a lack of dirt and confusion, now offers the finest avail- ~ ~ : l able shopping facilities. ~ : . M~ ~ ;.n,,:. :On'"~ Keep away from town with the murderous busses, the crowding t;t trolleys and taxis, the lack of parking space, the long walks and tiresome tiail waits. Learn the scope of Narberth's enlarged business section, and ~ i discover the reasonable prices, the quick service, and the courtesy which tt~ n await you. ~ n

.. ..".~ " lo ~ ~ .

;.n,:. ~ n ~ You can park in Narberth. Sensible rules are sensibly enforced. ~ ~ ~ No trolley and taxi combine is trying to force private cars away from ~ U: Narberth's business section. You can park with ease, shop with ease,

~ and go home satisfied. ~ •~ t i ~ ~ ~ 4 •.•
