Officers Installed. At a well attended meeting of Bamberg lodge, No. 38, Knights of I Pythias, in their castle hall on Monday night, Acting Deputy Grand . Chancellor H. C. Folk conducted in a ' very impressive manner the installa, tion ceremonies when the newly elect, ed officers of the lodge were installed for the ensuing year. Marked enthusiasm is being displayed in Pythian , circles of late, as was evidenced at this meeting, and with a corps of , earnest officers to lead in the work, it is believed that the year of 1916 will round out with more progress , along all lines having been made > than in a like period for some time. The following have been selected . to serve the lodge for 1916: U. Glenn Hutto, C. C..; LaVerne Thomas, V. ( C.; P. B. Murphy, prelate; W. A. , Dickinson, M. of W.; H. L. Kearse, M. at A.; W. C. Patrick, K. of R. & S. and M. of F.; H. L. Hinnant, M. of E.; M. G. Cooner, I. G.; J. H. Armstrong, 0.

Walker; relief and sick, U. G. Hutto, LaVerne - Thomas, P. B. Murphy, W. C. Pat, rick, H. L. Hinnant, F. C. Ayer, M. J G. Cooner; trustees, B. W. Miley, F. - C. Ayer, D. J. Delk; hall, J. H. Armstrong, M. G. Cooner, F. C. Ayer; J .audit, W. C. Patrick, P. B. Murphy, I^averne inomas. I According to the semi-annual re port just submitted for the last half t of 1915, the lodge is in fine shape ) and is in position to do much good * work this year. ) A report was had from the com1 mittee in charge of general arrange ments for the entertainment of the 2 district convention here in February - and the work was found to be pro3 gressing in a satisfactory manner. A - busy and entertaining day is promis) ed the visitors here at that time and there is a general disposition on the 2 part of the business men of the town - to cooperate with the committee in -1 their work which adds much en t couragement and further assures the 1 success of the day. s As soon as practicable the programme will be published in full, but at this time there are numerous uncompleted details which it will be necessary to complete before any ' further announcement can be made.

Maull, advertising agent nf tbp Atlantic Coast Line railway 1 company, visited Bamberg last Thursday and addressed a mass meeting of < citizens at the court house at 10 i o'clock in the morning. Mr. Maull ; outlined a, plan of the A. C. L. to advertise the communities through which it passes, for the purpose of securing immigrants to locate in the South. He proposed to raise a fund * of several hundred dollars from nine ' South Carolina counties, one of which is Bamberg. This fund, supplemented by a sum 1 to be appropriated by his company, ^ will be used to print a booklet detailing the advantages of these coun- J ties. This booklet will be widely dis- 1 tributed throughout the West, ' and other sections from which ; it is possible io attract most desirable agricultural immigrants. Fifty dollars was asked from Bamberg. The amount was readily made up among J those present. Mr. Maull expects to J return tn Rflmhpfe within the next 1 few weeks at which time information ! and data will be collected from this ( county for use in the advertising booklet. In this way Mr. Maull proposes to use his efforts towards building up the agricultural sections through which the A. C. L. passes. Every new and desirable citizen who lo- 1 cates in Bamberg county is worth several hundred dollars to the county and is worth quite a sum to the railroad as well, arid if only a few ' good families could be induced to lo- 1 cate in the county and build up some of the soil that is now lying dormant, the efforts of the railroad and of the citizens who are cooperating with the . railroad, will be well repaid. ? Gamblers Roimded Up. Sunday afternoon Policeman Jennings, with the assistance of some citizens, rounded up quite a neat little bunch of colored gamblers. There were nine in the crowd, and not one succeeded in making a get-away. They were carried before the mayor and received fines of $12.50 each or spend thirty days with the chain gang. The following paid their fines: William Isaac, Peter Simmons, " ^ - TT??J Marion .Martin, r veu Laiu^ucn, Boisy Pinckney, John Kearse, Wash Collins. Two of the crowd, Philip Price and Glen Jackson, chose the gang. r~ News From Carlisle School. Last week was one of much activity at Carlisle school. A basketball game was played, basketball teams organized by the boys, and two addresses were made by visitors. The Carlisle eirls won their first basketball game Friday afternoon, defeating the Bamberg high school girls 21 to 18. As the score indicates, the game was hotly contested, both teams showing up well. A big crowd of enthusiastic "rooters" for both sides witnessed the game. In winning this game the Carlisle girls have gained a two-fold distinction: First, so far as there is any record they have won the first interscholastic athletic contest in which t?he girls of this school have ever engaged; second, they won the first game to be played in the new C. F. Rizer gymnasium. They and their friends are proud of their victory. Carlisle boys have organized class basketball teams and are working out a schedule of interclass games. The "'Varsity" will be selected after these games have sufficiently revealed the strength of the men on the various teams. The following captains have been elected: Senior team, James Skinner; junior team, John Bunch; sophomore team, St. Pierre Lenoir; j freshman team, Purdy McLeod. Rev. W. R. McMillan, pastor of j the local Baptist church, addressed the Young.People's Christian association at its regular meeting Friday night. His discussion of "The Ideal Son" was appropriate and helpful. The school had the pleasure of having as a visitor last week the Rev. j A. J. Cauthen, presiding elder of the | Orangeburg district and chairman of j the Carlisle school board of control. | Mr. Cauthen came over to discuss' with the members of the local board some plans for enlarging and improving the plant for another year. Annual revival services of the Young People's Christian association! will begin on Monday evening, Janu-! ary 24, and continue through the;' week. J)r. R. S. Truesdale, pastor of: I the Methodist church at Sumter, will': conduct the services. Dr. Truesdale | has been here for these services on two other occasions and the associa-i tion is peculiarly fortunate in se- 1 curing him again. 1 Judson Mayfield Injured. ^ ? I Judson Mayfield, 10-year-old son of ^r. and Mrs. S. G. Mayfield, of Denmark, had both bones of his right forearm broken at 10 o'clock Saturday night, while cranking the family automobile. Judson had driven the car to the union station to meet the ( local Seaboard passenger train from j Savannah, for Mrs. Maybel Peeples, of Estill, on a visit to Mrs. Mayfield. Dr. Johnson, of Estill, changing cars for Charleston, was near by when the j accident occurred, and accompanied ] the injured boy to his father's residence. Dr. Wyman, the family phy-, sician, was called in and the broken ( limb was attended to. < i Week of Prayer Observed. ] The members of the Missionary society of the Baptist church held pray- ( er meetings three afternoons of last ] week, observing the week of prayer. These meetings were well attended " and it is hoped that much good will be derived from them. ^ The meeting on Wednesday after noon was conducted by Mrs. J. F. : Carter, whose subject was "ingath9ring Programme and Christmas Of- ( fering to China." She was assisted by Mrs. W. R. McMillan, Mrs. G. F. Hair and Mrs. J. E. Newsom. A col < lection for China was taken and a ^ neat sum realized. The year books for 1916, prepared by the publicity * committee, assigning each member ] some definite work for the year, were distributed at this meeting. 1 ->* ?

On Friday afternoon the society enjoyed having the Y. W. A's, who with their leader, Mrs. John , Cooner, meet with them. At the conclusion of their delightful exer- ' cises a short business meeting of the society was held. ] Several new members were added to the roll and a mission study class ' was organized with fifty members. ! The first book selected for study is "The King's Highway." ] Laymen's Movement Meeting. i There will be a union service at the Baptist church Sunday evening at 7:30, in the interest of the Lav?

After a reading by Mrs. Harry Murphy and an inmental solo by Miss Urma Black, asocial half-hour was enjoyed during which a delightful salad course, with -13P*3a coffee, was served. t Found Unconscious on Track. ^ , An unknown white man, seeming- . . ) ly about 25 years old, was found on the Seaboard Air Line railway about two miles above Fairfax in an un- ^ conscious condition by the section foreman, who carried him to Fairfax ; and summoned Dr. W. R. Tuten, who took charge of the case and tried to restore him to consciousness but failed. Dr. Tuten started to Savannah with the patient about 3 o'clock but the man died shortly after the train l'* left Fairfax. The man seemed to be j a tramp and the only clue to his <j| identity was these words stamped on the sweat band of his hat: "H. C. Williams, Middendorf, S. C.," and the t* words "L. Williams, Olar, S. C.." written on a book of cigarette pa- ji pers found on his person., jfl Bamberg Cotton Market.
