diversions of the people of Bamberg
Next Monday is the first Monday ii
the month and salesday. Master H
C. Folk is to sell at Denmark th<
property of the Denmark Machim
Works.
The sales at the Bamberg post
office for the month of March, jus
ended, were the largest in the his
tory of the town, showing that wi
are growing right along, as there ii
no better way to judge the growth o
a town than by its postoffiee receipts
The receipts of the Bamberg Post
office for the year ending March 31s
v were $800 more than a year ago, tha
is receipts from March 31, 1913, t<
March 31. 1914, were $800 mor<
than from March 31, 1912, to Marcl
31, 1913. Pretty good raise for om
year.
Messrs. H. W. Johnson, W. G
Hoffman, and G. Moye Dickinson
of this city, were delightfully enter
tained at a fish fry last Thursda;

Joe Fender.
It is stated that the Southern Rail
way will soon put a new train fron
Charleston to Atlanta. If this nev
? ??? nuitr
service is put uu, it nm -i ?
a convenience to people in this sec
tion. The train going to Charlestoi
will pass here about six o'clock in th<
morning and arrive about ten o'clocl
at night, giving a much longer da;
in Charleston.
The postmaster at Ehrhardt write
us that an effort will soon be madi
to get two new rural routes out fron
that office. Rural free delivery is i
'
great developer of any country, am
we hope the efforts of the good peo
, pie in that section will be success
ful. More rural telephones an<
more rural routes will keep the whit<
people on the farms and develop th<
/ country.
* The postmaster here has writtei
Congressman Byrnes and asked hin
to use his best efforts to have an ex
jPerimental free delivery service es
tablished at this office. We are no
at all sure that the department wil
make the experiment at Bamberg
as one town in the district alread:
| . has the service, but we are goinj
after it with the intention of gettinj
free delivery for the patrons of th<
office if it is possible to do so.
Mr. W. C. Wolfe, of Orangeburg
was in the city Tuesday with his en
gineer. They were here for the pur
pose of taking measurements an(
getting blue prints showing the ter
rpiuals of the Bamberg-Ehrhard
Railroad, with a view to getting t<
work on terminals and connectiofi
with the Southern Railway as earl;
as possible. Track laying on th<
road has proceeded to a point abou
four miles from town, and the rail
will be laid to Bamberg in two week
or less.

other exhibition games will be pla>

^ Carlisle Squad Cut Down. ]
= The Carlisle baseball squad has
been cut down from thirty to sixteen,j
_ men, and are showing up fine. So | ?
far it has been impossible for Coach
Merchant to decide who will com- ?
^ pose the chosen nine, but they hope
to be in trim pretty sqon to defend t
the honors which they won last year
^ as "State prep champions." T
3 They have back with them seven
of last year's team, who are show
ing up stronger than ever.
The new players are proving to be ?
pretty good material to add to the
squad.

Denmark, March 25.?L. J. Owens,
or a number of years the popular
ection master of the Atlantic Coast
-ine railroad, died at his residence
ast night at 11 o'clock of arterio
;chlerosis. Mr. Owens had been in ill
lealth for some months, but had been
ible to return to his work. However,
or the past week he had been ill.
To Mmo intn tnwn vpsterdav fore
ioon to attend some business, his
ihysician having told him that the
nd was near. He called in his phyician
late in the afternoon, yesterlay,
and, telling him that he was
onscious of the approaching end,
.sked for something that would reieve
his breathing, which had be:ome
very distressing. Dr. Mathews,
the attending physician adninistered
some pallative and sat
>v him till the end, which came very
>eacefully. He leaves a wife and
everal children.
Missionary Society News.
The missionary societies, home
ind foreign, are making this year a
special study of the temperance sitlation
at home and in ^11 lands. It
s a well known fact that but for
:he devastation wrought by strong
Irink a very large part of our work
vould not be .needed. To the student
)f these things it is startling to see
hat back of the great avalanche of
ntemperance is the lust for gold,
den would exploit the weakening
ind debasing appetites of their fellow
nen to fill their own pockets. They
vith Satanic cunning have even turnid
toward the children to train a
lew generation of drinkers who shall
ie ready to take the places of those
vho are daily going down into the
\ntor Hnrlrnpsc; nf a drunkard's hell.
It is interesting and encouraging
;o note among the temperance workers
an ever growing number of the
rreat ones. Emperor William of Gernany
after a careful study of the
iffects of alcohol has declared himself
a total abstainer and in the army
ind navy discourages its use among
he enlisted men.
And now the Czar of Russia is
iroused by the fearful havoc wrought
rniong his people, and a complicated
situation he has to deal with as the
government has monopolized the
liquor selling and the revenues of
:he country are largely derived from
:his source.
Among the host of great ones in
mr own land who are lined up on the
:emperance side are President Wilson
and Secretary Bryan.
The growing power and strength of
Hir cause should be a source of great
encouragement to us. Let us hope
ind pray on, work on. God is leading
the fight and final victory is sure.
Gift for the Baby.
A very acceptable little gift for a
laby and one which is easily made
ind is costly only in time and in the
lumber of intricate stitches is a number
of cap strings. These can be
aundered separately and can either
ie sewed on the cap or pinned with
tiny gold pins. These little pins
shquld accompany the cap strings.
Very fine batiste or sheer lawn
should be used, cut into three and
one-half inch strips, fifteen inches
iong, which are then hemmed by
aand. The ends may be made as
elaborate as desired. Dainty hem
Btitching with an edge 01 tatting
made of 70 thread is a charming
finish. A tiny scallop with a beading
insertion of real lace is also lovely,
embroidered ends with tiny
wreaths of forgetmenots and eyelet
3ots may be used.
