THURSDAY, APRIL 16,TH 1925 Getting New Industries. T Why Not Have a Field Dav? The Herald has been a little amused at the -excitement caused in Barnwell by the receipt of a letter from an advertising agency inquiring about the possibility of locating a factory there employing 500 persons. We ad mire the commendable activity of the Barnwell people in securing new en terprises; it is worthy of emulation, but there was nothing to get excite 1 about, for just about every town throughout this section of the country received the same inquiry. TheHei- ald received the inquiry in Bamberg; it was turned ovor-tJ! the chamber of commerce for reply. The requested information was furnished; courteous attention was given all matters con nected with the inquiry, just as cour teous attention is given to all inquir ies. ,lt appears that the inquiry was a form letter sent out for the pur- pose of ascertaining information, and < let’s liegifi plans ft if this ’was the purpose, it served ad mirably. Barnwell’s or Bamberg’s ( banco of—nirfdthg this enterprise is too remote to lose any sleep over.— The Bamberg Herald. The People is very glad indeed th;u . the live-wire action of the citizens in Barnwell in reference to the inquiry has r.t least furnished amusement to The Herald. If nothing else ii compHshed that alone is worthwhile For the information of our Several years- ago, Barnwell County had an annual Field Day that was a credit to the schools, the pupils, the teaehers^and the county as .: whole. It brought scores of children together to compete in sports of various kind.- and was an event that was anticipated for many months. For some reason or other, probably due to the fact that this country became involved it* the World War and turned to moie serious things, the t .vent was diseon-1 and Sadie tinued. Why not revive* it? Barnwell County schools made great strides in recent ' There are high schools in prac every town and the* rural schools < f today compare favorably with the high schools of a few years ago. The people of Barnwell, we are ^■ure, will gladly cooperate with the school authorities in making the event a success.
