Local Fans Saw Good Game Here
Two Days Last Week. ,
Barnwell won two out of a series
f of three games with the Antlers of
Columbia on the local diamond last*
week. The first game was won by the
- visitors, 6 to 4, afid with the exception
| of one inning was a vpry good exhibi
tion. of the national sport. Columbia
scored one in the first inning and in
I their half of the same frame the locals
made two runs. In the third, the Barn
well players took a trip via the air
plane route and before they returned
: to terra firma the visitors had chalked
five more tallies. Although
they rallied a path,- the best that the
home team coukl do was to push the
^ more men across the plate.
With the score 1 to 0 in Thursday’s
game, J. Piuvius came to the assistance
of the Columbia bunch in the second
innir.g and saved them from what
looked like sure defeat. 4

NOMINEE FOR MAYOR
Uliher, Aug. 23.—In view of the
fact, that the onward progress of the
much dreaded boll weevti is reported
from every section of the country, the
farmers have decided to turn their at
tention in the future to other remun
erative products, such as tobacco, etc.
The recent floods of rain have ren
dered some of the roads almost im
passable, people being forced to reach
their destination by circuitous routes.
“Good roads” should be the farmers
slogan.

Dr. R illiam Thomas Hrecland.
Lauren.4. Aug. 13.—Dr. William
• Thomas Breeland died at 6:30 o’clock
this morning at the residence of his
daughter, Mrs. John A. Hicks here.
Dr. Brceland was bom December
t 16, 1831, in Colleton County, and mar
ried Lydia fSusaft”lSfnart, December
« 18, 1861_. ~ He was a. graduate of
Charleston Medical college and prac
ticed medicine for 62 years in Barn
well and Hampton Counties. He
served m4he War Between the States
as a surgeon, and was a life lopg mem
ber of the Methodist Church, his mem
bership being at Allendale, the place
of his late residence.
About four years ago Dr. Breeland^
accidentally fell, breaking his hip,
and was nfined to his bed from that
time until his death. He was,, a very
patient sufferer, but being 88 years
cf age he was never .able to recover.
He is survived by two children:
Thi-lma Brookcr, who has boon
•pending -ome time with relatives at
Denmark, is home again very much to
the delight of her many gift and boy
ti ierds.
Frank Kirkland reports that he will
attend the Sewanee Military Academy
in Tennessee during the next school
session. We will miss Frank so much,
however, we know he will make good
marks wherever he goes.
Caro Easterling is visiting friends
in Augusta, Ga., wher^ she will spend
sevenrf weeks, and we know she will
have a good time.
Mr. P. M. Buckingham very kindly
donated to the Barnwell High School
his pay during his term on the County
School Board,. for a library. This
will be supplemented by a fund from
the county and State, and from this
start, the school hopes to have a com
plete library for the use of the children
in the near future, which is very much
needed. ^ Thanks to Mr. Buckingham.
Harriett Patterson will return to
Ashley fHall,-Charleston, where she
attended that institute last session.

Plan of Organization.
The orgrnization will extend into
the townships of the county and the
wards of the city. The plan for the
permanent organization provides for
township assiciations. Each towns-
ship association shall elect a town
ship chairman, vice chairman, a secre
tary and three members of the county
board of directors.
The county board of directors, con
sisting - thus of three members from
each township and ward, shall elect
a president, a vice president, a secre
tary and an executive committee, con
sisting of the president, the vice pres
ident, and five members of the board
*of directors, of the State association.
All county associations are branches
cf the state association.
The state organization will consist
of a board of directors, composed of
three members from each cotton pro
ducting county of the State. The board
of directors is charged with the duty
of naming a president, a first vice
president and seven other members
of the board of directors.

ever may be conducive to the stability
and profitableness of the cotton pro
ducing industry.
The American Cotton Association
will establish offices in every cotton
consuming country of the world. The
experts in charge of these offices will
report regularly to the American Cot
ton Assoc'ation as to the supply and
demand, etc. ^The .American Cotton
Association wjll serjd these reports to
the State Association and they will be

Has Accomplished Much.
The American Cotton Association
has accomplished much without or
ganization. The statement has been
made on the floor of the United States
Senate that the association has already
saved the South 8500,000,000. But for
it cotton would today be bringing ten
of fifteen cents, it is declared. Offi
cials of the association say that with
a permanent organization it will be
able to revolutionise things in the
South-
percentage of its members present
will be awarded a banner. This is s
coolest every woman demonstrator
may enter and each woman club mem
ber is appealed to to see if she can
help to make her club the winner by
attendance at this meeting. A good
program has been arranged for the
day consisting of the following num
bers:
