Snow Hill Stockton
Road Is Completed

At exactly halN after ten o'clock
Wednesday morning. the last section
of concrete was laid,, and the finish
ing touches put on\ the Virginia
Crossing road, connecting Snow Hill
with Girdletree and Stockton. The
road, which is about three fourths of
a mile in length, has been built in
record time. less than twenty one
days of actual working time having
been consumed in its construction.
After turning the corner at Church
and Martin Streets, the road runs in
a straight line, connecting with the
State road short distance beyond
the railroad crossing. Its completion
is a source of great qualification to
the people of Snow Hill, as well as
to Girdletree and Stockton people,
whom it places within few minutes
ride by automobile of the county seat.
The building of the road at this time
is due to the efforts of a number of
our prominent public spirited men,
whose representations to the Cover
nor and State Roads Chairman of the
great need of the immediate con-
struction of the road were so cogent
and convincing, that the road was
authorized, the contract awarded, and
work commenced within four days.
The project was financed by the First
National Bank of Snow Hill.

appointed for three years and those
for terms which have been six years
will be reduced to five years. After
that the terms will be two, four and
six years as before, but beginning on
the odd year. In 1927 and thereafter
the General Assembly will meet every
two years on the odd year.
This applies to county appointive
officers as well, who have been APP
pointed for specified terms. All Off
cials appointed by County Commits
Sioners. for instance, after the 1923
four or six years, shall hold Office for
three years, and after that all APP
pointments shall be made uniformly
for four years. All State and county
officials appointed for terms which
expire in 1925 to 1928, inclusive, are
cut one year. and their successors are
to be appointed for regular terms in
1924 to 1927, inclusive"
WOmen's Amendment Explained.
In regard to the "women's amend
ment,' Mr.. Perlman said:
ut was designed to remove doubt
rather than anything else. No one
knows just what Offices the Court of
Appeals might declare Constitutional
Offices. For instance, the State Lii
brarian is an officer designated by the
Constitution, and the masculine pro-
noun is used in connection with it
the Constitution saying the Librarian
shall hold his office, but Lloyd
Lowndes set the example of appoint
ing woman and all Governors since
his time have followed it. The Court
of Appeals does not decline to receive
books from the woman and to that
extent tacitly admits the legality of
her appointment. which has in every
case been confirmed by the Senate"

Edward Jones Case to
Be Called Next Week

The case of Edward Jones, who is
in Jail awaiting trial for killing
Lawrence Smack, will be called in
Cambridge next week. This is re-
moval case from Worcester County,
the Court having granted the petition
of the prosecuting attorney for re-
moval to another county, and having
designated Cambridge as the place of
trial, inasmuch rs the next term of
Court of this circuit convenes there.
Unconfrmed rumors are extant to
the effect that the attorneys repre-
senting Jones will petition the Court
for removal to another county. If
this should be done, and the petition
granted, the case would not come up
for trial until the spring, when it
would be tried either in Salisbury or
Princess Anne, the two remaining
County seats in this Judicial Circuit.
