Pickens Youth Held
For Slaying Father
Greenville, ,#ctT 18.~Pickens courvty
officers revealed today that Loman
Masters, 18, of the Oolenoy section,
is held in the Pickens county jail
chairged with slaying his father, Ahner
Masters, 50, whose body was
found early yesterday beside his
truck which had gone down an embankment.
The officers say the
youth confessed.
oThe story police said the youth told
them was that he and his father engaged
in a fight and a blow from
an automobile crunk killed the elder
Masters, lie then placed his father's
body on the truck, they quoted him
as saying, and drove it over the embankment.
*
An examination of Masters' body
when it was found di&closed he apparently
had been killed by a blow
upon the head.
Funeral services for the elder
Masters were held yesterday in
Pickens county. The boy, in company
with the sheriff, was allowed
to attend. "

Hitch Hikers Banned
After more than 14 months of operation
the Maine law- against hitch
hiking is declared effective and beneficial
by General J. W. Hanson, chief
| of the state's highway police, although
not a single prosecution has
been necessary. ;
The law forbids any person on u
public highway to "endeavor by
words, gestures or otherwise to beg
to secure transportation in any motor
vehicle not en gutted in carrying
passengers for hire, unless said person
knows the drvier thereof or any
passenger therein." An exception is,
made in ea*e of sickness of an emer-.
gency nature. Maximum punish
ment for violation of the law is $">b
fine or 30 days in jail.
Hitch hikers are a nuisance to
motorists, and many cases are on
record in which persons soliciting a
lift have robbed and even murdered
those who thus befriended them. On
the other hand, most likely disposed
persons would willingly give an honest
pedestrian a ride if there' were
any way to distinguish him from the
other kind.
In this matter, as in so many
others, a vicious minority seems to
make necessary a law which imposes
a hardship on those who have no
j wrong intentions. Law or no h*w(
I it is safer not to pUck up the unknown
hitch hiker.
Billy Payne, blind and pensioned
World War veteran, of Clinton, Ind.,
slashed his wife's throat with a razor
a Wednesday, probably fatally
wounding her, and then killed himself
by severing his own jugular vein.
The tragedy occurred in an automobile
in which the couple were driving
to Indianapolis to confer with
Veterans' Bureau officials regarding
Payne's pension.

Old Add-ages
Instead of crying over spilt milk,
why not back the old huzzy up
against the stall and pump some
. more milk9?And if yon happen to
be in such a long iane that a turn
therein is unlikely, why, jump the
fence and hunt up another lane. . *
Everybody knows that the early
bird catches the worm, but there are
plenty worms, if you are eating
peaches, aud a hard worker can alr
ways find enough worms, even tho
he be a little late.
But times have changed since I
was a boy. In 18 and 95, beauty was
skin deep, but it seems to be knee
- high and one coat thick in 19 and
30. Somebody said that "it comes to
him who waits," and I reckon he was
talking about trouble, but the fellow
who is sitting down?waiting for
better times had ^better gird himself
*t>out and go out to meet 'em.
A penny saved is a penny earned,
said old Mother iHubbard who went
to the cupboard to get her poor dog
a bone, but who cares anything about
a penny today? It* won't buy anything
but a postage stamp. But
have you noticed thaV a young man
who manages to save or borrow or
steal a few dollars makes a bee-line
for a garage nd the next thing you
know .he's riding? Saving anything
is a big joke now-a-days.
It really is no secret .why times
are hard. Just take yourself and myself,
..Im- instance: Instead of buying
Something that we needed when
we had the money to spare, we
bought something we could have done
without and posstibly not have suffered
any inconvenience, but them
Jones simply had to be kept up with.
But as for me and my house, we
have always kept one car under the
Joneses: when they bought a Buick,
we "installed" an Essex, when they
got .that Cadillac, we traded for a
Bodge, and when they rode by in
that new Packard, we swapped for a
Hudson. We have been running them
mighty close races on ice-making refrigerators
and hot-water heaters
and radios and sitting-room furniture.
If there weren't any Jones,
we couki possibly make an honest 'iving.
The Biennial |
Sessions Resolutions
The last time the people voted on ^
biennial sessions of the legislature
it was favorable for the change, j
Unfortunately, however, they killed
their purpose by thoughtlessly going
wrong on the necessary resolution to
levy a tax for two years instead of
pne. Thew will bo three resolutions
that must .pass in order to get the
change as follows:
1. Amendment of Article 3, Section
9 of the Constitution be stricken
out and a new section to be
known as section 9 inserted in lieVr
thereof, providing for biennial sessions
of the Ueneral Assembly. Vote
YES?if you are in favor of biennial
sessions.
2. Amendment to Article X, Section
2 to provide for the levy of annual
tax biennially. Vote Y"ES
again?if in favor of biennial sessions.
3. Amendment to Section 16,
Article IV, relating to the calling in
special session of the Senate?YES
?if in favor of biennial sessions.
The above are the three resolutions
that must be voted favorable
it you want biennial instead of annual
sessions. Don't vote YES bn
orip or two and NO on the rest, unless
you mean to kill .,the whole
thing. Vote YES three times straight
on this proposition.
There is one other that you need
to look for apd ballot in its favor.
This is the classification of property
for taxation. It means that
stocks, bonds and mortgages shall be
reasonably taxed along with your
lands, homes, stores and other visible
property.
Much depends on your ballot on
these constitutional amendments.
Vote carefully and knowingly. If
you don't understand it, ask some
one who is posted, and in whom you
have confidence.?Calhoun Times.
