Weekly Weather Forecast.
Issued by the United States weather
bureau at Washington, for the
week beginning Wednesday, October
,6, 1915. >
For the South Atlantic and East
Gulf States:
Generally fair weather is indicated
throughout the week. It will be
cooler Wednesday and Thursday and
somewhat warmer thereafter.
With cotton bringing around
i. twelve cents, the South having more
foodstuffs on hand thamever before,
and with the cost of cotton production
less than when cotton sold forj
three cents, there should certainly i
be no worry about war conditions.
While it /is true that prdbably not
r more than half a crop will be harvested.
* it is also true that cotton j
I possibly cost less than half to makej
it - than is usually paid. Farmers
planted cotton with the expectation
of; receiving about seven cents for
The Chicago Tribune says the;_
South is uncivilized and a menace to 1
the republic. This was said ''with j
special reference to-the Frank lynching,
but applying to the conditions in j
general in the South. Such expres-l
eions are unworthy^of a great newspaper,
and we are glad to note that
the expression gained no favorable
comment from any other Northern .
newspapers. The lynching spirit in^
the South is no worse than it is* in (
the North, and the rabid sectional-11
feeling editorials of, the Chicago pa- j i
per will not alter conditions in either
I! the North or the South. I,
The Bamberg grand jury, in its j
presentment at the recent sessipn of.
court, made this statement.
jjfe V We have been informed that some
Hi of the magistrates of the county
Bp?:.; v have gone beyond the limit of the ?
K law jn charging for service, and we1
ask that they look up the law on the 1
matter of fees, and be governed ac- '
v cordingly.
Spy/ That would certainly seem to be a
bad precedent for tfie grand jury to 1
|| set.' The grand jury's duty is to 1
& present persons or officials for vioK
lation of the law or dereliction of
||. duty. If there are any magistrates j
m.f" in Bamberg bounty who have exceed-;
ed their authority in the matter of;
I? j - charging fees, or in any other mat-'
p% terf they should be presented for
II the offence. The implication by the,
grand jury might mean two magis-i
p - trates or practically all the magisW:.-.
trates have been guilty of going be-!
M' yond the law in chargingNfees. The!
$?*.- orTQnH inrv should be specific, and;
p' not in a general way cast a reflec-i
&-/ ' tion on every magistrate in the coun'
ty, and if any magistrate has violat-j
| ed the law, he should be punished, j
and not merely admonished not to repeat
the offence.
A Good Boy.
Tommy's teacher had reported him
as the best boy in her class, and con
sequently his mother felt justified in
discussing with him that evening at
supper the evil character of the other
^ boys in the neighborhood.
"I wouldn't go about with that
Charlie Banks, if I were you, TomTnv
" said his mother. "I was told
g this morning that he was seen sticking
pins in his little dog. But I
know you wouldn't do such a thing."
"No, mother," he answered, "of
course I wouldn't."
"But," broke in his father, "I
heard that you were there at the
itime Charlie was sticking in the pins.
You should have stopped him, my
lad."
For a moment Tommy's face fell,
but he soon recovered himself.
"I couldn't stop him, father," he
exclaimed. "You see, I was holding
the dog."
DON'T FORGET THE COUNT.
Contestants Must Get in All Subscrip
tions by Saturday Afternoon Next.
The wonder of Bamberg count;
just now is the big subscription priz<
giving and profit* sharing contest
The contest is the' best humored, fui
producing, money making even
Bamberg has known in a long time
Everybody wants the beautiful prizei
offered, and judging from the goo(
work being done, the contestants in
tend to have them. For they are a
work with a vim.
First Count Next Saturday.
The announcement that the firs
count of votes would be published ii
our next issue has stimulated th<
activities of the contestants wonder
fully. The Herald managemen
wants* every contestant to make '<
good showing in the first count, anc
we urge every contestant to be wel
represented with votes when th<
vote box closes Saturday afternooi
for the first count to be made.
The contestants are asked to sent
in their subscriptions and remit
tances not later than six o'clock Sat
urday afternoon. After that tim<
we will canvass the votes, and th<
result will be published in the nex:
issue of The Herald.
That Pair of Queen Quality Shoes.
To the contestant having the larg
est number of votes when the firs"
count is made, we will present ar
order on Mr. W. D. Rhoad for a paii
of $3.00 Queen Quality shoes. O:
course you know that Queen Quality
shoes are right up to the minute
Why pay for a pair of lovely fall oi
winter shoes, when you can get then
free by getting a few subscriptions
to The Herald? We cannot imagin<
an easier manner to get a pair o1
shoes than this.
You Cannot Lose in This Contest.
There i$ no possibility for anj
contestant to lose in The Herald's
contest, for if you don't win one ol
the five capital prizes,- you will certainly
win a nice, check. Ten pei
cent, commission will be paid you il
vmi Hn nnt win a his: nrize. Nevei
before has such an offer been made
in Bamberg. The Herald wants a
thousand new subscribers?we musl
have them?and in order to get that
thousand new subscribers, we are
going to do a handsome thing bj
those who help usr
Lady, if you have not sent in youi
name as a contestant, or if some
friend has not sent it in for you,
don't neglect this golden opportunity.
Do it now. A postcard will
bring you an outfit. Then just put
in a few hours every now and then,
and a beautiful suite of furniture
may be yours.
Can't you use a $150 suite of mahogany
finish, four-piece bed room
furniture? If you cannot use it, you
are extremely fortunate. There is
nothing cheap about this suite. Ask
G. 0. Simmons what he thinks about
the suite we selected. He is a furniture
man, and knows furniture from
A to Z. He will tell you it is one
of the most beautiful suites his factory
connection makes.
Will an $85 cabinet talking machine
ornament your home? This
machine, manufactured by the leading
talking machine house in the
country, is one of the most beautiful
instruments we ever saw. Don't
confound this with a "graphophone"
or "phonograph." It is a beautifully
finished cabinet talking machine?
an ornament to any home. Plays
disc records of any make, in a beautiful
toner '
Would you like a $50.00 set of
beautiful furs? Of course you
would. Perhaps you have not bought
any furs for a year or two, because
on account of the hard times you did
not feel able to invest enough money
to get a set of* real furs. This is
your chance. These furs are manufactured
for W. A. Klauber, an expert
in furs, and ^e says they are
O, K., and worth every cent of fifty
dollars.
You must have a coat suit; will you
buy it or will you allow us to present
it to you? You can pick it out tc
suit yourself from Thomas, the millinery
and dry goods man. You car
take any suit he has up to a value
of $25.00, and you know you can get
a mighty nice coat suit for $25.00
You have wanted .a nice coat foi
years; maybe you did not feel quite
able to get a c^at and a suit at the
same time, because they are prettj
expensive. Now is your chance tc
get it free ? ab-so-lute-ly free
Hooton is the man you will select ii
from, and he has plenty of them, bi?
coats, little coats?coats of all kinds
Suit yourself. Get a coat worth ui
to $25.00, and have it charged tc
The Bamberg Herald.
In regard to the two last prizes
a coat suit and a coat, if you win i
coat suit, and prefer a coat, becaus<
maybe you already have a suit, yoi
can select a coat instead. The sam<
roprprri tft thft coat from Hooton
All * v v
if you prefer a coat-suit of like value
it's all right with us. We are your!
to please. The other prizes canno
be substituted.
Now, contestants, get busy, b-u-s-y
Win that pair of shoes next Satur
day; and make up your mind yoi
Jack's Car. V
This is the agent, jk and fat, p
with cloth top shoes and high silk ?
hat,' who sold the car that Jack
r bought.
a This is the genius, all grease and
oil, who charges like sin for his daily
! toil, and mends the car that Jack
t bought. B
This is the dealer with friendly 5
smile, who dresses his wife in the |
I latest style on profits made from I

t and tires and things to patch up the |
car that Jack bought. |
And this is the buyer of rubber I
t and rags, and worn out Fords and 1
i paper bags, who buys the car in its
3 secoild year when its lungs give out
. artd its wheels won't steer, and melts
t it down with his other tin to make
i quart cans to put peaches in.
1 And this xz?! ! ! ??! ?! !
1 ! pst grr !! is a true and exact 1
5 report of the cross between an oath 1
! and a snort that seems to set the
air on fire when thoughtless, curious
1 ones inquire, "Where is the car that
. Jack bought?"
Oh, where are the cars of yester3
year? And why do the mortgages i
3 linger here? When the cars are
I wrecked and the junk man gloats,
why can't the banker tear up the
notes?
