SHORT LOCALS.
Brief Items of Interest Throughout
the Town and County.
Dr. O. D. Faust has our thanks for
some very nice pecans, which he kindly
left at our office while we were
out.
Clean up your back lots and remove
all trash from your premises
before Christmas and thus help to
prevent fires.
Mr. B. F. Folk and family, of the
Spring Branch section, have moved
to town and are occupying the
Pearlstine house.
Patrons of the postoffice are asked
to mail their packages before the
Christmas rush. Wrap and tie all
packages securely.
Christmas time makes no difference
to an editor or postmaster. He
has to work just as hard or harder
than usual all during the holidays.
Mr. G. D. Ryan has sold his moving
picture show, the Rex Theatre,
to Messrs. Culler and Wolfe, of
Orangeburg, who are now operating
4 v *- it.
The graded school and Carlisle
School will suspend exercises Friday
of this week for the Christmas holidays.
Twa weeks' holiday will be
given. .
Mr. F. E. Copeland announces the
marriage of his daughter, Sophie, to
Mr. W. G. Muller, of Islandton, the
marriage to take place at the home
of the brido in January.
Read The Herald advertisements.
. Those who use our columns will appreciate
your tra<Je and have something
to offer you or they would ^not
pay for space to tell you about their
goods.
The entertainment given at the
graded school building last Wednesday
evening to raise funds for the
school library was well attended and
quite successful in every jray. The
receipts were something more than
__ ' fifty dollars.
'
Last Saturday the Governor issued
an order disbanding the military
companies at Bamberg, Barnwell,
Bennettsville, and Conway. This action
was taken because of the poor
showing made by these companies at
a recent inspection.
The bazaar given in the court
house last Thursday afternoon and
evening was a most successful affair.
It wras given to raise funds for furnishin|
the lobby of tl\e new. brick
dormitory at Carlisle School. A
nice sum was realized
Messrs. Cecil R. Culler and ^Lenair
F. Wolfe, of this city, have bought
out the moving picture show in Bam
Derg ana will run it irom now ou.

Both of these gentlemen are hust.
lers and w\e wish them success.?
Orangeburg Times and Democrat.
Bamberg is without a military
company at present, the Bamberg
Guards having been disbanded by the
governor. We trust this condition
will not exist long, and hope the
young men of the town will soon get
together and organize a good military
> organization.
Mr. Arthur M." Kittrell, who is
well-known and has relatives in Bamberg,
died at Landrum, Spartanburg
county, last week. He leaves a wife
and several children. Mr. Kittrell
was cashier of a bank in Florence
for a number of years, but moved to
. x Landrum when' his health broke
down.
It is right hard to say when we
will move into the new post office.
We expected to move tne lauer pan
of this week, but owing to the delay
in getting the tile laid in the lobby,
we cannot do so. Maybe we will
move before Christmas, and while we
# certainly hope so, it is by no means
certain.
' The congressional investigating
committtee, which had in charge the
probing of the charges of political
corruption made against Congressman
Richard S. Whaley by Mayor
John P. Grace, has dismissed the
proceedings and the chairman of the
committee states that the matter is
at an end so far as his committee is
concerned.
All persons who wish boxes at the
new post office will please see the
postmaster or one of the clerks at
once. There are not so very many
boxes left, and while there will no
doubt be enough 'for all, still we
want everybody to get a box if they
wish one, and there is nothing like
being on time. Select your box without
delay.

Orangeburg to attend plays has become
a popular pastime. Several
from here attended a play there last
Friday night." The Bamberg folks
are always welcome in Orangeburg.
When you finish that postoffice building,
Brother Knight, we want you to
come over, too.?Orangeburg Sun.
