||fsfev"- "
The State, in a recent issue, calls
attention to the fact that many of
the socalled high class periodicals,
yQ -, magazines and newspapers, have dis%
> continued advertising whiskey and
patent medicines, but they carry big
advertisements, cleverly worded and
attractive, of numerous brands of pis||v
? tols. It is true. One can hardly
open a magazine without having displayed
before his eyes big advertiseWr,
ments of weapons which are used tor
|v little else in this world than to kill
with?and to kill your fellow man.
J . Orangeburg has recently secured a
broom and mattress factory, a veneering
plant, and a packing, house has
grT been organized with a capital of
$50,000. We understand that all of
gj; * these enterprises were secured
feU through the agency of the chamber
rxf morfo nf that citv. In other
jjf VI wui utv* vv V?. ? words
had there not been an organization,
the purpose of which is to try
to secure new enterprises?for one
thing?Orangeburg would not have
had added to her industries three
magnificent plants. It is nobody's
gffc't - business to look after such matters
in Bamberg, and we are not securing
so very many new enterprises.
It is the endeavor of The Herald
management to give courteous attention
to every communication received,
but if our readers would observe one
rule that has been in force in this of:
< fice for many years, we would be sav;
. / ed the trouble of writing a good
many letters. Scarcely a week passes
that we ao not receive uuc ui mvit
requests to give publication to notices
of entertainments of various
character, at which either an admisfsion
is charged or articles are offered
for sale for the purpose of raising
money. The Herald cannot publish
:
tj; ' such notices - as news. We consider
matter as advertising where it gives
publicity to any kind of a meeting
the primary purpose of which is to
make money?no matter for what
purpose the money is to be used. We
derive our principal revenue from
selling our advertising space, and
must, therefore, charge regular advertising
rates for matter that is advertising?and
we consider such miatter
as above noted advertising. If
our friends would bear this in mind
in writing us, it would save both
them and The Herald considerable
. uselesss correspondence.
SCREEN TRICKS.
Why Do Moving Pictures Seem So
Life-Like?
It takes a certain amount 01 time
to affect the eye, says March Popular
Science Monthly. You do not see
things instantaneously. If you move
a lighted cigar in a dark room very
gwf"-. I
rapidly you see what is apparently a
continuous curve of light.
The motion pictures reproduce
movements faithfully for the same
V .
reason. Before the eye has a chance
to see a picture in its entirety a new
picture is flashed on the screen. The
pictures appear and vanish at the
rate of sixteen a second, in other
words, so rapidly that the effect of
continuous motion is produced.
Advantage is taken of this to produce
very curious and unnatural ef
fects: for example, an old Duncungi
tearing itself down, a hole digging j
' itself in the ground, a skyscraper |
growing up from a foundation with-j
out the aid of human hands. The1
camera operator has simply taken a
picture of the demolition of the old
"building and the construction of the
skyscraper at the rate of perhaps one
an hour, but projects them all in
twenty minutes.
