BOY TAKES OWN LIFE John Parker, 12-year-old son of i Mr. and Mrs. Irvin Parker, resid- ; ing five miles west of Silver Lake i committed suicide by shooting himself with a shotgun about 3 o’clock Thursday afternoon. The boy spent most of the day harrowing in a field and returned ito the house about three o’clock. His parents and other members of the family were away at the time, two smaller children being at the Allison Swick home nearby. Ringing the dinner bell to attract attention, John Parker made careful preparations for killing himself. As two children approached from the Swick home, he pulled the trigger of the shoti gun with his toe and sent the [charge of shot through his heart, I felling dead on the ground. The i two other children witnessed his act. A note pinned to his clothing stated that he killed himself because of ill health. This, how-, ever, is not credited with being the real cause for his action since the boy was known to have excellent health. Besides his parents. the bov is survived by six brothers and sisters. Waste of Time. Don’t waste time reasoning with an angry nitfii.
