Determine Winners of Three
Valuable Prizes.
By the time this issus of The
Sentinel reaches its subscribers
there will be only seven or eight
days in which the contestantsn
The Sentinel's great Drize con
test may seek to increase their
vete. as the c o n t e st closes
promptly at 4. o'clock on Satur
day, March 21. TheshortleIgth
of time left for the contestants
to work-makes it imperative for
them to be more active than
ever, for a day lost may be vital
to acontestant's chances.
When the votes are all in they
will be counted by an impartial
committee of businessimen. The
followine well-known citizens of
Pickens have .kindly.consented
to act on this committee:
J,.T. RICHEY. former Treasurer

the Contest Manager. and .fe
-,ommittee will then ascertain
how -many votes each contest

announced in the issue of The
Sentinel published on Thursday,
March 26. Positively no infor-'
mation. or even a hint, will be
given any contestanto or anyone
else, previous to the publication
of the result, as to the. identity
of the winners. And it is quite
possible that the announcement
of the final result will surprise
s howo have kept up with the
t ' .of the contest.
uring the remaining brief
of the contest in behooves
contestant to lose no time
opportunity that may serve
- sevoe..:-One day lost
ay mean the loss of one of the
valuable prizes. Most of
he contestants have by this
ime visited the Pickens Drug
tore and examined the beauti
1 $700 Player Piano, one of the
most artistic, durable and up-to
date instruments manufactured
by the Cote Piano Manufactur
ing company, of Fall River,
Mass.,a company which is high
ly rated in the piano world. and
the contestants ha e also admir
ed the beautiful solitaire dia
mond ring on display at the Ke
owes Pharmacy. The winner
of either one of these prizes may
well feel proud and delighted.
But there is still another prize of
practical value to be given in
the form of a life scoiolarshiP in
Draughon's Business College at
Greenvi'ie. This scholarship will
permit the winner to. go to the
college for a short time, return
h omo go to work if desired,
and then go to the college again
Kat any time. With this scholar
\ ship courses in the college
may be taken either at one time
\or at different times during the
hlder's life.
As previously announced, the
persor~ having the second largest
numbeli of votes mayihave their
choice of the diamond ring or
the lifetime scholarship. The
4 person having the third largest
number of votes will be givenJ
the prize not chosen by the sec

not be transferred under any
circumstances or consideration
whatever. If a contestant quits,
the votes obtained will merely
remain in that contestant'
name and the quitter will sim
plyllose all the time aiid trouble
expended and probably one of
the three prizes, for no one con
testant can have any definite
idea as to whether the chance of
winning islargeor smali. There
foi'e, if a contestant quits, it LQ
apt to be the wron2 thing to do.
If entering the contest in the
first place was the right thing,
then quitting it any time is the
wrong. thing.
..In.respect to that pbase of the
matter. the following lines from
the New York Sun are appro
priately quoted:
The man who once most wisely said,
"Be sure you're right, then go ahead,"
sight have added, this, to-wit:
"Be sure you're wrong before you quit."
This is fine advice to a quipter
in any game, but especially so
to a person in this contest.
Figuratively speaking, jam it
in your pipe and smoke it.
Splendid New Feature
The Seninel is beginning a
metropolitan feature this week
ith the publication of the first
chapters of a great . novel by
George Barr. McCutcheon, en
titled"TheHollbwof;Her Hand."
R this story were purchased in
iok form.being a modern novel
o class and disncti i. it.would
c6st more than the price of a
var's subscrition fo The Sen
tifiel. A subscriber to The Sen
tinel. therefore, is getting.more
than his money's worth in this
story alone, not to mention the
privilege of reading The Senti
nel for a year, so that the pub
lisher is now offering for one
dollar twice more than ever of
fered. .The Sentinel now has by
far the largest number of sub
scribers of any paper in the
county, and its prosperity is en
ablinr the publisher to offer
special features of unusualmerit
and interest.
Contestants should call atten
tion to this serial story when
talking to .prospective subscrib
ers, as it is a most attractive
feature. The 'story is thrilling
fron the very b inning. When
the first dra. 'c scene has
passed there -ollows a charming
loe roma. that grips the
hart-strings.
Another ineentive for imme
dite aetivity is that the nu nber
of votes given during the last
period ofsthe contest next week
will be snialler than the number
offered this weetr The present
is therefore the profitable time
for active work.

Ivy M. Mauldin for
State Bank Examine1
The State of Pickens was still mor
prominently placed on the map last wee]
when Governor Blease appointed Ivy M
Mauldin, cashier of the Pickens Bank
as state bank examiner.
Mr. Mauldin was appointed for a teri
of four years and succeeds B. J. Rhame
who was appointed by Governor Anse
in January of 1910 to fill out the unex
pired term of Giles L. Wilson, who wa
named as a national examiner. It i
expected that the appointment will tak
effect some time in April.
This is one of the best appointment
the governor has made, as Mr. Mauldi1
is not only eminently qualified for thi
responsible position, but. is popular a
over the state. He will continue t
make his home in Pickens.
Ivy M. Mauldin was born in Picken
county December 17, 1875. He was :
member of the first graduating class a
Clemson college, standing high in
large class, and is now a trustee of tha
institution. He studied law under th<
late Col. C. L. Hollingsworth and wa
admitted to the bar in 1896. Practicei
law alone in- Pickens for some time, an<
later with his brother, T. J. Mauldin.
He volunteered his services to hi:
country during the Spanish-America
war, and was made captain of compan
"I," 2d S. C. regiment, which went t<
Cuba.
In 1902 he was married to Miss Ver,
Eaton, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. R.
Eaton, of Central, andone bright daugh
ter has come to bless their home.
Mr. Mauldin was elected cashier o:
the Pickens Bank in 1904, succeeding
Mr. J. McD. Bruce, who was electe<
president, and has beej cashier of thi
bank bank since that time.
His appointment as state bank exam
iner has delighted the people of thi
county, not only out of county pride
but because they know he is worthy.
James H. Craig, of Anderson, ha
been appointed. assistant state bank ex.
aminer,

The Clifton bill to authorize the
holding of an election on the dispen
sary question in Sumter and Ker
shaw on the second Tuesday In June
was passed by the house.
Mr. Dick, Mr. Epps and Mr. Belser
of Sumter made statements in - re
gard to the bill and the tangle which
resulted over the last dispensary elec
tion in their county. The 'esult of
the last dispensary election in Sum
ter has not yet been determined by
the supreme court, to which it was
appealed.
By a vote of 31 to 23 the Iouse
killed the Sullivan bill providing for
the establishment by the state of a
hospital for the treatment of pellagra
and the appointment of a commission
to study the disease which is still a
medical mystery. The bill proposed
the appropriatiori of $25,000 for the
hospital and $10,000 for the mainte
nance of the commission,
The governor returned to the house
the DeLaughter joint resolution ap
propriating $400 for a monument over
the grave of McKie Merriwether of'
Edgefield, who was killed in the
Hamburg riot while serving under
Gen. Butler. The message said there
was an error In the name. "Hamburg"
as It occured in the joint resolution.
Action was deferred on the message.
Despite the declaration of the gov
ernor that he thought it "the rankest
Republicanism that could possibly be
adopted by any body of men calling
themselves Democrats," the house, by
a vote of 62 to 21, overrode the veto
of his excellency on the-act giVing the
citizens of Rock Hill the privilege of
holding an election to vote op the
question of adopting commission form
of government.

The senate sustained the governor's
veto of the Lide bill to provide aid
for farm demonstration work among
the rural schools by vote on the mo
tion of Senator Lide to pass the bill
over the veto, 17 for passage and 18
against it. It was pointed out that
no provision had been made In the
appropriation bill for the Items in
the measure. Senator Lide suggest
ed that provision could be made next
session.
The senate sustained Gov. Blease
in his veto of the medical Inspection
bill and thus the act fails to become
law. It provided for a mild form of
medical inspection of the school chil
ren of the state. This i tile sec
ond time the legislature has pyse4 a
