A Splendid Suggestion. ) One of the best suggestions growing out of the great war savings meetings of last Thursday came at Ehrhardt. when several parties said j thay wanted to buy some stamps for; some boy ''over there"?some Bam- j be/g county boy now ir, the trenches \ ' " in France. This is a splendid suggestion, not only because it will show the boys that we are thinking of them, but will help to give them a start when they come home, for we *, must keep in mind that they have no opportunity to make money now. We would'be glad to see some stamps purchased and set aside for every boy whi has gone from Bamberg county. U. J>. C. Meeting. Francis Marion Bamberg chapter U. D.

The Local Board has received a call for eight men from this county, four white men and four colored, to enter special training at the University of South Carolina, and State Colored college, at Orangeburg. These men must have been graduates of a grammar school, and must have some experience along mechanical lines and some aptitude for mechanical work. Volunteers for this training will be accepted up to June 21st. and after that date if there are not sufficient volunteers the Local Board will proceed to select the eight men to be drafted. This is an exceptional opportunity for young men of the county, and there should be no necessity for the Local Board to have to draft men for this training. Qualified young men will be doing themselves an injustice if they fail to see the Local Board at once and investigate this opportunity. (JEXEROl'S RESPONSE MADE. 1'ounty Subscribed $170,000 for War Stamps Thursday. That Bamberg county will come out successfully in the war savings stamp campaign now appears certain. The campaign' was opened under the most favorable conditions last Thursdajaf^when three meetings were held in the county. Before eight-thirty Thursday night more than $170,000 in war savings stamps had been purchased and pledged, putting the county over the amount asked at this time. However, as the committee decided on previously, the effort is to be made to have the full quota bought or pledged during this campaign, which means that approxii?otolv flAl'l Tvirkro ic trv lio hrtllP'llt y w ? v v v 111 vi v * v *?> vw ^ v v. v or pledged by Jhne 28th. The meetings were enthusiastic and full df patriotism. The Ehrhardt meeting was held at 11:00 in the morning, the Denmark meeting at 3:00 in the afternoon, and the day was closed at Bamberg in tfie late afternoon. Mr. X. G. Evans, of Edgefield, was the speaker at all three of the meetings, and Mr. J. C. Guilds conducted the solicitation. The navy yard band from Charleston gave concerts at each of these points, and.added greatly to the patriotic enthusiasm of the occasion. At the conclusion of the "address at Ehrhajdt, subscriptions were called for by Mr. Guilds. Twenty-seven thousand dollars was pledged by limit members, and before the meeting broke up the total had gone up to about $55,00(1. Denmark pledged and bought approximately $40,000 at the meeting, and Bamberg exceeded ?70,000. -v The soliciting committee at Bamberg met Monday afternoon and organized for business. Every man, woman and child is to be given the opportunity of assisting the government by means of saving and investing in war stamps. These committees are now at work, but no report has been made on their canvass as yet. After the rote sting Thursday Mr. Guilds, who is chairman of the campaign in this county* telegraphed Hon. R. G. Rhett the results of the day's work, which really put Bamberg beyond the quota for the month, but which does not mean that the campaign is over. Mr. Rhett wired Mr. Guilds back as follows: Charleston, S. C., June 14, 191S. J. C. Guilds, Bamberg, S...C. Hearty congratulations to people of Bamberg county on being first to pass June allotment; also to yourself and associates for your splendid work. One of the flags, at least, seems to be fluttering towards you, but you have many competitors to watch. What's the matter with your adding to your laurels by being the first county to secure the government allotment of three hundred and eighty thousand? RH^TT. To The People of Bamberg County. I am su^ that every person in Bamberg county must feel proud of the record that the county has made in the war savings drive. We are, without question, the first county irt South Carolina to go "over the top" on our Ojuota for the June drive, and we may be the first in the United States. At any rate, by dark on the day before the campaign was scheduled to officially open our June quota of $1 60,000, was oversubscribed. As county chairman, I want to thank all who made this possible?the band of splendid fellows who came from the navy yard, the earnest speaker, the faithful local committees, and everybody. It was indeed a great day for Bamberg county! And yet as patriotic people who love our country and the cause for which, she is fighting, who love the hoys <frho have gone from among us and want to see that they have the best of everything, what else could we have done? Now, 7 feel that there may be one danger of which I ought to warn you: Let us not feel for one moment that because our June quota is pledged that our work is done. Let us keep in mind that we set out to secure practically all of our year's quota, $380,000, and that there is much yet to be done. Our people are responding nobly and if this matter is presented faithfully to them T have the faith that our county will pledge the year's allotment before this campaign is over. The government's aim in this matter, after all, is to give every person an opportunity to pledge, by saving and investing, to help win the war. We want to get every person in the county, so far as possible, to comply with the wishes of our great president and make this pledge to their government before June 28th. Let us bear in mind that when our boys go "over the top" their real fighting has just begun, and so now that our county has gone "over the top" on the June quota, the real work is not over but has just begun. I want'to call your attention to the three flags being offered by the State War Savings Committee: One to the county securing the largest percent| age of its June quota: one to the The Express Office Matter. i The local committee in charge of the matter of the removal of the express office have received a letter Crom the Railroad Commission, together with a copy of a letter from the Commission to the general superintendent of the Southern railway, which are self-explanatory. It may be stated that the express company has arranged for the store formerly occupied by Blatt & Still as an automobile sales room, on .Main street, and it is understood that the office will be moved immediately. ! The letter to the local committee follows: "Referring to previous correspondence relative to express office at Bamberg, S. C. "The Commission has been urgent in its demands for the relocation of express office at'Bamberg without vundue delay. We are informed byN both Supt. W. F. Terrell and Division Agent S. J. Park that the agency was separated on May 17th, in accordance with Commission's order, and the business handled temporarilv in Southern railway station; that they were disappointed in securing the location first agreed upon, but that they are now improving a building on the main street of Bamberg, at which place they propose to establish the new express office. Please inform the Commission if the location selected by the Express company is satisfactory to the citizens of Bamberg." Following is a copy of letter from the commission to the Southern railway: "The Commision has been petitioned some weeks ago by the citizens of Bamberg, S. C., for establishment of regular telegraph office at that point in your passenger depot, instead of in the freight depot where it is at present. The Commission has visited Bamberg, investigated this matter along with others, and is of the decided opinion that the petition- j ers are right and that the proper place for the telegraph office is in your passenger depot. This, as of course you know, is practically the universal custom, and why the telegraph office should ever have been placed in the freight depot at Bamberg the Commission is at a loss to understand. As you are aware, there are several tracks between the passenger and freight depots, over which I tracks trains are constantly passing, ! and for a person to have to cross these tracks for the purpose of sending Western Union Telegraph messages entails danger of the loss of life or limb that is inexcusable as w*e see it. Therefore we direct that you take steps to make the necessary change and establish telegraph office in your passenger depot at Bamberg, c ?? C. Kj. , < C.' I1 Ci.^ Red Cross News Notes. Every soldier who goes to the | trnches carries a comfort kit. These things make the soldier remember that the people are behind him. Every Red Cross chapter in the country is required to make some and the following directions are given: Fold the material in the center of the 27-inch length and sew it up into a simple bag with an inch and a half hem at the top, through which is the double draw string. ' This makes a bag 12 by 8 inches. A housewife goes along with the kit, too. This is made of a light weight material. Quantities required: One strip of material 5 1-4 inches by 12 inches for roll; two pieces of flannel, 3 inches by 4 inches, and 21 inches of tape. Size when finished, 4 inches by 6 1-2 inches (unrolled.) In view of the fact that our surgical dressing class will soon begin work, it is urged that those who are [.going to attend _this class get their uniforms ready and the following directions are given: A large white apron, fastening in the back, with sleeves to the wrist and a V or square neck. Belt three inches wide; two pockets in the skirt. A red cross, two inches square, may be worn in front at the center of the base or tnei neck. It is hoped quite a number of the ladies will join this class. Two hours per week is required and as much more as one feels like giving. A veil has to be worn, too. About one yard of batiste or some material one yard long and one yard wide, with a lower hem one inch broad and a hem at the top two inches broad turned back on the outside. A red cross is worn in the center of the forehead band. The approximate cost of the apron and veil is $1.2-". We need socks and need them badly, but again we want to impress upon the knitters to be a bit more careful to have them exactly as directed. Do away with the knots ahd remember the proper dimensions here given: Foot from edge to heel and toe, 11 to 12 inches long: four inches w'de at instep: leg from bottom of heel. 14 inches long, and four inches wide.?Contrihnt^|. county securing the largest proportionate number of pledges: one to the county making the largest proportionate cash sales during the drive. }lr. Rhett says that one of them seems to be fluttering our way, but warns us that we have many competitors to watch. We cannot know until the final count is in. Let us. therefore, not be over-confident, but work all the harder. What do you think of taking all three in Bamberg county? J. CALDWELL GUILDS, County Chairman. TWO CONTINGENTS CALLED. Fifty-seven Colored and 15 White Men Called to Colors. On June 21st fifty-seven colored registrants will leave Bamberg for the training camp, and on the 24th fifteen white men will leave as the county's contingent in the big call of this month.

The Navy Yard Band. ^ ' The people of Bamberg county wei* delighted to have the navy yard band in the county last Thursday. That the band contributed very largely to I the success of the day's work there is | no doubt. They are a jolly, fine set very great pleasure in visiting this county. They expressed the desire to again visit the county. The band master, Mr. Vorella, said he had never seen money roll up so fast and so liberally in his life. The members of the band come from almost as . many States as there are men in the organization. We present below the names of the personnel of the band, and the States they come from: " Band master, F. A. Vorella, Va.; assistant band master, John Oronato, Sicily; S. C. Collins, Neb.; Wm.

Steps were taken Tuesday looking to tiie permanent organization of the cotton farmers of Bamberg county. The names of quite a number of prominent planters were secured as charter members, and it is believed that the number will grow. The local organization will become a part of the South Carolina Cotton Marketing association. The meeting was called by the State warehouse commissioner, Capt. \V. G. Smith, of Orangeburg. Mr. T. B. Thackston, of Spartanburg, was the principal speaker. He presented the purposes of the organization in a most convincing manner. It is generally conceded that to convince the farmers of the necessity of organization is a hard proposition, but after listening to Mr. Thackston, who is c ii i. _ _^ i A one 01 uie nesi versea men 111 iuu State, with cotton as his hobby, the farmers present appeared to be thoroughly convinced that they were working against their best interests when they allowed the manufacturers and all others who are employed in the handling and marketing of cot:on goods to have their organizations; vet, they, themselves, going along in the same old rut, with no organization whatever to look after their interests or represent them when occasion arises. That such an organization as that started Tuesday can be of untold benefit there is not the slightest doubt. The farmers are about the only class of people in the world who have not some sort of organization, and that they are suffering from the consequences of this lack of organization was clearly pointed out by the speakers at the meeting. Tt n-oe /?l?>ar that pnttrrn iq xt ?? uo rnuuv VAwu.i buuiv vvvvn/m *v the South's great crop, which is now. serving as food, clothing and war material, and it is very important that the crop be taken care of and properly marketed and conserved. Especially at the present time is an organization needed for the reason that a movement is on foot to fix a price for cotton. The farmers should be well represented at the hearings on this matter when it comes up for consideration. Mr. Thackston expressed himself as being in favor of such action, provided the farmers are consulted, and a price fixed in accordance with the cost of production and a reasonable profit added. Friday is Merchants' Day. Remember that Friday, June 21st., is merchants' day in Bamberg county. The merchants have agreed to invest their total cash sales for the day in war savings stamps. Don't forget this and plan to do your shopping on that (Jay and pay cash. A flag is offered to the county making the largest proportionate cash sale of stamps during the drive, a good way to help win the flag is to make mer- . chants' day really count by planing to shop on that day. We can pile % up a good many thousand dollars in ; that way. Clerks to Invest Day's Salary. Dr. C. A. Sanders last week started a movement which bids fair to be great aid to the war savings campaign. The plan is for Ivery salesman in the county to agree to invest , one day's salary in war savings stamps during the campaign. Dr. Sanders has already secured the cooperation of most of the clerks in Bamberg, and he hopes to see each one during the present week. Tf any are- inadvertently overlooked, it is hoped that they will see Dr. Sanders at Mack's Drug Store and sign the agreement.. If this plan is followed all over the county, it will add materially to the cash sales of war stamps during the drive. Starr Phonographs, from $55.00 to $135.00. G. A. DUCKER?adv. 7-4.
