TAXATION QUESTION.

The call OF DR.. J. II. Saye. chairman,
for mass meeting to be held in the
courthouse next Friday morning at IL
O'clock, ought to be of interest to- thc
taxpayers of the, countEG.'i JNT
"I can't say that have any special
purpose in calling this meeting," said
DR.. Saye yesterday, except that have
been requested to act as chairman OF
the State Taxpayers association and
want TO give the people of York coun-
ty an opportunity to express them
selves on the subject.
This State Taxpayers association
YOU will remember, was organized III
Columbia on December IA, with Mr.. {,
w. Coker of Hartsville, rs president.
AS understand, there is no Intention
of trying to dictate to the legislature or
anybody else.
"It seems to have been the concensus
of opinion among those who met in CO.
Iumbia that in the first place the ap-
preparations should be reduced; that IT
the second place visible property bears
too large a proportion of the burdens OF
taxation; that in the third place means
should be found whereby the burden OF
taxation can be more equitably distrib.
uted on the shoulders best able t'
bear it. '
II can't say that / have anything cs'
pccial to offer at this time-anythine
by way of the solution Of the problem!
we are up against. AS / have said
am merely calling this conference be-
cause have been asked to do IT. There
will be presented to those who attend
the conclusions reached by the confer
ence in Columbia, and those In attend
ance will take such action as they sec
proper take"

BOYD BRIDGE ROAD.

Making no mention Of the location
of the road, n delegation of Bethel
township citizens met with Sen;.tor
Hart of the legislative delegation and
County Attorney Brice yesterday, ask
ing for an appropriation of $4,000 to
be used in building 4 read from York
Vile to the new Boyd's Ferry bridge
now in course Of construction.
Although most of those at least who
conferred with the officials yesterday
favor the upper" or Lincoln road
route, TO mention was made OIL the
location of the road.
Argument Of citizens was that the
new bridge will be completed in July
and the people of the county Will IND
themselves In tho position Of having a
new bridge across aCatawha river
without any means of getting TO the
bridge. p, >.
While Senator Hart did not commit
himself, he stated 10 the delegation OF
Bethel people that he did not see now
the delegation could make an appro-
prIation for, the road: this year. u 'is
understood that the county budget Tot
1922 will include $4,000 for tho West
road: $4,000 for the chainganS; S2O',,
OOO fOr Fort Mill lO"HSHip iNAu~o >N''S
$4,000 for the building OF a road from
Boyd's Ferry to some, point connect
ing with Bethel township roads. The
senator stated yesterday afternoon
that he felt that was about all thc
county could stand this year.
He argued further that there would
be no hope of Federal aid for. the
Boyds Ferry road during tho present
fiscal year whereas a year from now
there might be an opportunity TO op-
tain assistance from the Federal gov
ernment
Following the hearing in the sena,
tors office n member OF the Bethel
delegation stated yesterday afternoon
that petitions would be put in circu-
lation asking the delegation to make
the $4,000 appropriation. In all prop
ability delegations of citizens in the
territory directly affected will so 10
Columbia later on to renew the re-
quest for the appropriation.
IL was stated yesterday afternoon
that the Hardaway Contracting Com
pany who arc building the bridge are
now making! good progress, with tue
work. =

- Ten elders Of tho Seventh Reform
ed church at Grand Rapids, Michigan.
were poisoned at the morning service
Sunday when they drank 'yarnish that
had been poured into q communion
cup in the belief it was sacramental
wines. Two of the elders were said to
be In a critical condition. The church
had been repaired and in the store
room where the sacramental wine Is
kept in n jug several jugs of varnish
used in the re-decorating had been
storeh.u One of the officials Of the
church is said to have mistaken the
varnish for wine when he filled the
communion cup during the church
service. The ten elders Of the church
were the first to drink the c0mmun-
ion wine. AS the cup was being passed
to other members of the congregation,
the elders were seen to fall to the
floor. Many of the church members
became panic stricken and rushed
from the edifice. A physician was
summoned and the stricken men taken
to hospitals or their homes. The
poisoned elders were d. J. Vaderwert,
JOHN Riewold. S. Folkerstna, Horny
Terkeurst. John Druyn, j. Hollenste-
ger, G.. Heemstro, II. Dofoo and II.
Hoggswors. The communion cup was
passed TO the elders immediately after
Reverend ID. A. VanLummel, the
pastor, had completed his sermon.
Elder Iiewold was the first to drink
the poison and the first to fall. The
other elders collapsed in rapid sue
cesSion. folkerstna was said to be in
the most serious condition of any Of
the ten. H-

With much painstaking and intelligent
labor the commission has undertaken
to iSegregate the different statutes un-

possible and to a far greater extent
than has been done in several previous

left out, and also all that were clearly
unconstitutional have been eliminated.
There is still a great deal of work TO
be done on the Code in the way of in

PLANTING Fruit Trees.

There is a good deal OF fine fruit
throughout York county; but not near
ly as much as there should be, and
why?
There Is plenty of vacant ground on
which fruit trees can thrive without
being in the way Of anything more VAL
liable present or future, and it does
not require much labor or expense TO
plant q fruit tree.
There never was a boy or girl. man
or woman who was not fond OF fruit
and there never has been an over sup
ply of fruit-certainly not in this coun-
The old,map looking backward OTTER
regrets that he did not put out fruit
trees when he was young, and straight
way he, proceeds to put out trees the
fruit OF which he may. never expect to
eat. The young man looking forward
sees the abundance Of fruit that could
be gathered in a few years from the
trees he could put out now; but he con-
tinues TO eat the fruit from the trees
chat were put out by the old man and
does not begin to put out fruit trees
himself until he has grown old.
Wonder if it is not kind Of regret
that makes the old. man put out fruit
trees-regret over wasteful neglect OF
duty in the past and a determination to
make amends for that neglect?
But why shouldn't the fathers, In
stead Of trying to- make amends in this
way for their own neglect, teach their
children the Importance Of putting out
trees and insist upon their doing it? To
be sure the parents Of the average far
mer child has no idea that this child
will remain on the farm after he has
grown up; but that is no excuse fol
failure to put out trees, for the@trees
will someday be Of use to somebody.
There are few land owners in this
country who could not put out whole
orchards to advantage; but whether
individual children put out orchards ol
not, it is well to teach them to put ou,
one or more trees, particularly the
trees bearing the kinds of fruit OF
which they are most fond.
