S
Sunday was the -first Sabbath i
many weeks it has not rained i
Bamberg. The day was fine an
balmy, and both churches had goo
congregations.
J. K. Mayfield and W. D. Mayfiel
(of Denmark) have planted abou
1,000 acres of grain. For the las

It appears to us that it would b'
a good idea .for the safety of th<
public to have an under crossing a
the intersection of the Coast Line an<
the Denmark road near Denmark
This crossing is a very dangerous one
Mrs. B. R. Loadholt, of Sycamore
S. C., one of The Herald's value*
' f ,
readers, in renewitfg her subscriptioi
says: "Enclosed please find check fo
$1.50 to renew my subscription t<
your paper. I don't see how we cai
do without The Herald."
It is to be noticed that the portioi
of the Denmark road within the cor
porate limits of Denmark is in a ver;
bad condition. If the town canno
maintain the road, it would be a goo*
thing to turn this section of the roa<
over to the county so that it can b<
\ worked.
The Cotton Oil company has close*
down for the season, though the mil
will be operated as occasion demands
but the regular run has been com
pleted. It is stated that the outpu
of the company this year is consider
ably less than last year, when th<
mill was operated up into the sum
mer.
The Herald is constantly havinj
nice things said about it. We deepl;
appreciate the words of encourage
ment we receive. Here's a lette
from Mr. M. Blount, of Fernandina
Fla., a former resident of Bamberg
"Enclosed you will find $1.50. Pleas*
send me the paper another year, a
it is always a welcome visitor."
It is costing The Herald a lot o
money to keep the paper up to it
usual standard. Our friends knov
that every sort of business is off now
so if you are due us your subscrip
tion, we would greatly appreciate ;
remittance.- Our readers will fim
that The Herald contains a grea
quantity of mighty good reading.
Work has been begun on the flou
mill of the Farmers Gin company
The mill is being erected by Mr. T
J. Rentz. and is located right adjoin
ing the ginnery. The engines of th
ginnery mill will be* used for th
flour mill. The work is being push
ed, and the building will soon b
ready for the installation of the ma
chinerv.
Sunday seems to have*been a ba
day for automobilists. Several ma
chines from town got stuck in th
mud, but t^iis has been a usual hap
pening recently, as the recent ba
weather has caused the roads of th
county to get cut up very badly an
have numbers of bad holes. * The
should be worked in the bad place
as soon as possible, and we trust thi
will be done without delay. If th
roads cannot be worked all along, th
holes in the low, wet places shoul
be tilled at least.

^ l*roposition Fiom Mrs. Jennings.
~ City council held a special meeting I
last Friday evening to consider a
= proposition from Mrs. J. M. Jennings
to run a two-inch pipe line from her
artesian well on Bridge street down
rt Main street in order to supply this ]
part of town with water, as the well r
at the corner of Copeland's store has (
gone to the bad. The proposition of (
r" Mrs. Jennings was that council ap- ^
propriate $2o.00 toward the cost of j
y the piping and in return a free water- (
)- ing place would be given the town,
y Council decided not to make the ap- t
propriation but stated that in case s
v the line was run the city would es- j
tablish the watering place and pay ^
e Mrs. Jennings rent for use of the }
o water. g

A concert agent had sent to the
irinter the program for a big concert
te was organizing. At the last monent
a very great personage died,
"he programme was already in type
,nd the proofs passed, but as soon as
he news reached him the agent deided
that "Chopin's Funeral March"
oust be included as a sign of respect
.mong the items performed by the
irehestra.
He telephoned to the printer to
sk him to make the addition.
The printer said he would try.
"What do you want to add?" he
aid.
"Not much," said the agent. "I only
rant you to put in at the beginning
if the programme, 'Funeral March,
iv Chopin.' " And he carefully spellid
Chopin so that there should be no
nistake.
"All right," replied the printer. "I
hink we can manage it."
The agent heaved a sigh of relief
mt when a copy of the programme
,vas thrust into his hands on thf
liglit of the concert his hair stooc
