Berte Dean Garter Is a selGmude
man. ' Born on the farm of poor but
honorable parentage, one of a family
of six boys, left orphans at a tender
asge, he made his own way through
Clemson college and the law depart
ment of the University of—South
Carolina, being admitted to the bar in
1910, and entering Upon the practice

being Carter, Cartel and Kearse, one
of the leading legal firm- in lower
South Carolina.
Mr. Carter was born in 18S1 in up-
I
per Colleton County Upon the death
of his parents whan he was a small
boy, the old home was necessarilv
broken up. and he came to Bamberg
County to live with relatives on the
farm until he wu s old enough to
take care of himself.
During this period he had little op
portunity to attend school;, several
years of his school age he wasttukyble
to attend at all. and never more than
three month-' out of the year. ’ Fired
with an ambition t; -ecure an educa
tion. however,- hi\ saved up his. mea
gre earning- and entered the pre-
of Clemson college in
aid of the first -session,

Clemson, the college annual paid him
a very high tribute.
As a .prhi t it loner at the Bamberg
I»ar \v.ith hr- law firm. Mr' Carter has
handled all phases 'of legar’pf'aetice,
but gave pvote particular attention to
the criminal practice: He has assist
ed in the prosecution of many inir
portaiit cases, some of them of wide
interest. His firm has been singular
ly successful in criminal' practice.
The "Carter boys,” as they are af
fectionately known, to their hundreds
of friends, will not accept the prose
cution of any person unless they are
convinced of guilt; in this event they
are relentless.On theiir effi>rts; on the-
other hand they will not defend
knowingly any person whose case
they believe has no extenuating cir
cumstances. Thi* firm, -when it takes
a case, puts every ounce of energy
possessed- into it- proper presenta-
turn in court.
He has had~some experience in poli
tics. From 1914 to 1918 he repre
sented Bamberg County in the house
of representatives, making an envi
able record for himself.. Some id>*a
of what his ''home people think of
him may be gained ’from the fact
that in his first race, with six promi
nent candidates in tlie field, he was
elected on the first ballot by the larg-
ost vote ever given any, candidate-
with opposition in Bamberg County,
being re-elected by an equally-flatter
ing vote. He lacked only about 100
votes of securing every Democratic
vote in the county. Since his retire
ment from the house voluntarily he
has practiced law and engaged in
fa rming.
Berte Carter does not possess
the kind of character that wou^d per
mit him t'o per.-eeiite any man. Mr.
i % .
('alter says: “1 stand tor a fair and
impartial but strict enforcement of
tlie law. I do not believe in persecu

of the-guilty and conviction when the
evidence warrant- it." That, briefly,

As a bonus of $fln was given all
veterans upon their discharge, the
first sixty days in the service will not
be counted. If all service was in the
United States, the maximum allowed
is $500, and if part was overseas, the
maximum allowed is $625.
If you, as a veteran, wish to calcu
late the amount of your bonus, pro
ceed as follows: Estimate the num
ber of days you were in service, minus
the first sixty days. % Multiply the
V'
number of days spent in the United
States by $1, and the number spent
on foreign service «by $1.25. If the
total is or less, your bonus will
Ik* $50 iu cash. If the amount i?
more than $50, your bonus will be
an insurance policy. To get the
value of this insurance policy, add
25 per cent to your nasic total, or
the total figured on length of service.
Then multiply this second total bC
one of the "factors” given below and
corresponding to the age of the vet
eran. and this amount will be the
faee value-of your insurance policy.
For instance, Jones served six
months in the United States and four
months abroad.— For home service it

day-, at $1 a day, or $12<>. His for
