of death visited the home of Mrs. R.
A. Owens Monday afternoon about 7
o'clock and bore away the soul of her
daughter, Mrs. Miller Dannelly. Minnie
was in bad health for several
months and the end was not a surprise
to her folks. The remains were
laid to rest Tuesday afternoon at
Wesley Chapel cemetery.

of this church, Wesley Chapel, and
was a devoted church worker, having
been organist and Sunday-school
teacher at Ehrhardt Methodist
church for a number of years. Her
life was one of sunshine and happiness
and the soul made its departure
as it had lived, knowing that it was
entering upon the bosom of rest. She

brother, Mr. Lightsey, of Charleston,
besides lelatives - and friends to
mourn her untimely end. JEF.

Myers-Crosby.
Chester, March 17.?Strikingly
beautiful in all of its details and appointments
was the wedding of Miss
Pearl Myers and Mr. David Pierce
Crosby, which was solemnized at the
First Baptist church, of this city,
Wednesday evening. Beautiful decorations
of white, set off by the rich
green of innumerable palms and
ferns, banked upon the rostrum and
at the sides, made a scene of unusual
loveliness, in which decorative skill
of a very high order was in evidence.
Just in front of the rostrum was a
beautiful canopy of snowy maline,
under which the bridal pair stood,
while to the left and right around the
walls were a number of candlabra
that shed a rich and effulgent glow
upon the scene, after the electric
lights had been dimmed, and as the
officiating minister, Dr. H. A. Bagby,
was pronouncing the beautiful and
impressive words of the ceremony.
]\Iiss Myers is a frequent visitor to
Bamberg, and has numerous friends
and acquaintances here.
Bamberg Soldiers Return.
The Bamberg boys who have been
doing patrol duty on the border arrived
home Monday, after serving
Uncle Sam for seven months on the
Texas frontier. Four young men
from this county were among those
on the border: William E. Hutto,
Frank James, Henry Smoak, and
Frank Lemacks. Mr. James decided
to remain on the border, having accepted
a position there. .Messrs.
Smoak and Hutto, members of company
M, of Orangeburg, arrived in
Orangeburg Monday morning with
their company. Mr. Lemacks was a
member of company B, of Charleston.
FOOD CROPS IMPORTANT.
Ramberg Farmers Urged^ to Raise
Their Own Supplies.
That the farmers of Bamberg county
will make a serious mistake if
they neglect to plant food crops and
raise their own meat is clearly shown
by a statement prepared by W. W.
Long, of Clemson college, showing
the relative value of a bale of cotton
in 1914 and in 1917, in other words
what a bale of 12-cent cotton would
buy in 1914 and what a bale of 18
cent cotton will buy now.
It is the general opinion of the
farmers and others that the present
price of cotton is high, and that it
should be a money crop at 18 cents
the pound. However, this a fallacious
argument, for a bale of cotton
'- loeo in ntirnhacinp' VfllllP nnW
I 5 n Ul III lUOk? 1U Jk/Ui VAtMWAUQ ?
than it was when cotton was 12 cents
a pound. Then, it naturally follows,
that the only means the farmers can
employ to prevent themselves from
becoming poorer this year than last
year or the year before is by raising
their supplies at home, 'and having
their cotton for a profit crop.
Briefly stated, the comparative
table compiled by Mr. Long, and forwarded
to County Demonstrator
Heard, is as follows: In 1914 a bale
of cotton would buy four tons of hay;
a bale will now only buy S 3-4 tons.
A 12-cent bale of cotton would have
purchased 80 bushels of corn; today
a bale will buy only 75 bushels. Two
years ago the proceeds from one bale
would have bought 12 barrels of
flour; a bale will now only buy nine
barrels. Two years ago a bale would
have been worth 600 pounds of lard;
it is now worth only 500 pounds. A
12-cent bale of cotton wTould have
bought 400 pounds of bacon; a bale
will now buy only 375 pounds. A
12-cent bale would have bought 66
bushels of Irish potatoes; at the time
the statement was prepared a bale of
cotton would have bought only 40
bushels, but would now buy nothing
like that quantity.
Now, if a farmer raises his own
meat, lard, hams, etc., grows his own
flour, corn, oats, hay, and feedstuff^
of all kinds, and then has his cotton
as h money crop, he will certainly be
prosperous, so Mr. Heard is urging
, the planters to first plant plentifully
of things to eat and use on the farm.
Those who do this, especially the
small farmer, need experience no
sleepless nights troubling about what
cotton is going to be worth next fall.
There is not much doubt about it being
worth a good price, but as will
be seen by the comparison of values,
a high price is not worth much if It
takes more in return" rto purchase
something to eat.
Mr. Heard will be glad to talk to
anybody along this line, and give
them the benefit of all suggestions
and information which he commands.
The county demonstrator is, of
course, always in close touch with
the agricultural department, and can
be of great benefit to planters, and
we hope our readers will avail themselves
of his assistance.

Death of Mr. R. G. Wheeler.
Sumter, March - 16.?Mr. R. G.
"" ' - - 1 _ C ? 1, ? o
wneeier, an euipiu^ee ui mc oeaboad
Air Line railroad at this point,
died very suddenly Thursday morning
while engaged at work at the
Seaboard Air Line depot. He was
about fifty years of age and is survived
by his wife, six sons and a daughter,
two of the sons, Messrs.
R. E. Wheeler, of Sumter, and
F. B. Wheeler, of Bamberg, being
grown. Mr. Wheeler had been in the
employ of the Atlantic Coast Line for
several years to last September, when
he accepted the position with the Seaboard
Air Line. The funeral services
were held at the Sumter cemetery
this morning.
Fairfax a Good Town.
We have named Fairfax "the Baptist
Courier" town. How does this
sound? Fifty copies of the Courier
going into the homes of a church
with a membership of 225! Fairfax
holds the Baptist Courier banner,
everything considered, so far as we
know. This vision on the part of
this growing church, is largely the
result of the faithful work and excellent
leadership of Pastor E. A. McDowell,
and his gifted wife, who
noias tne imponani uiuce 01 resuming
secretary for the W. M. U. of the
State. Brother McDowell will be remembered
as the efficient field secretary
of the Baptist Courier a few
years ago. Good things can be said
of this town in a material way; but
our Baptist pride was so much delighted
at the marked progress of
this wide awake church, that we failed
to get much of anything except
Baptist news. We 'found these people
worshiping in a beautiful new
brick building, with a well organized
choir, a large Sunday school, more
than a hundred in prayer meeting,
and other organizations for missionary
training. The needed sum of
money to remove a debt on the
church property was in sight, and
none were rejoicing more than those
good business men who did the work
and paid the debt.?Baptist Courier.
Getting Ready for Delivery.
Final arrangements are now being
made at the postoffice for the inauguration
of village mail delivery service,
which will be inaugurated in
Bamberg on April first. Some of the
supplies have already arrived at the
postoffice. The carrier, Mr. Emile
Price, is now at the postoffice familiarizing
himself with his work, and
he will begin regular trips on the
morning of the first.
While the collection boxes have
not yet been received, they are ex
pected within the next few days. But
in the event they are not here by the
time of the inauguration of the service,
it will mean no delay. In this
case, the carrier would make his
rounds as usual, and parties could
hand him their mail, provided the
letters are stamped. The carrier will
not sell stamps.
It appears almost certain that onecent
letters are going to be a thing
of the past after April first. Heretofore
"drop letters" have been mailed
for one cent, but where there is mail
delivery, no one-cent sealed letters
are allowed. However, the postmaster
has taken this matter up with the
department, in order that there may
be no misunderstanding about it.
Village delivery service was not contemplated
at the time the postal
rules and regulations were issued,
but it appears that village delivery
will be of the same effect in this regard
as regular city delivery, which
does not provide for mailing drop
letters for one cent.
Parties should bear in mind that
they should hand in their names at
the postoffice if they desire mail by
delivery, and should provide their
residences with suitable receptacles.
Teachers go to Columbia.
Bamberg county was well represented
at the teachers' meeting in
Columbia last week. All of them
sti.te that the meeting was an enjoyable,
as well as profitable, one.
Among the Bamberg county teachers
in attendance were the following:
Prof. W. C. Duncan, Carlisle
school; Misses Naomi and Nettie
Sandifer, of Bamberg; Miss Lucy
Bomar, Bamberg graded school;
Prof. E. M. McCown, principal of the
Denmark school; Prof. R, Fair Goodwin,
principal of the Olar school;
Misses Sadie Boyd and Ethel Logan,
of the Colston school;
Misses Dixon and Garland, of
the Denmark school; Miss Kate Kornegay,
of the Clear Pond school.
Bamberg's Clean-up Days.
' .*!
The ladies of the Civic league have
for a long time been trying to make
Bamberg a cleaner town. They have
put forth sufficient effort along this
limsv mol-fl pAmn nf tho man ait nr.
liiiu lu uian.^ ovuiu vt xu^.u ui*
and take notice of the many things to
be done in the town. Recently April
2 and 3 were set apart as clean-up
days in Bamberg.
The Chamber of Commerce has offered
its assistance to the ladies, and
will endeavor to give them all the
cooperation possible. If there is any
old rubbish anywhere around your
premises, you are urged to clean it
out on these days or before. Trash,
etc., should be piled up in convenient
places to be hauled away by the city
trash carts.
Store Robbed at Branchvllle.
Branchville, March 16.?The store
of Mr. Isaac Leinwand was entered
last night from a rear window. The
safe was opened apparently by a blow
from some heavy instrument, and
about $90 was taken, besides several
suits of clothing and pairs of
shoes. As soon as the theft was discovered
Sheriff Dukes was notified
and soon after bloodhounds were on
the scene. The trail was taken up,
followed west of Branchville a few
miles and lost on reaching: the river.
It is supposed the party crossed the
river.
Mayor A. S. Hartfcog.
Now that all danger of opposition
has passed, and there never was any,
it is not out of place to hand our
honorable mayor, A Sydney Hartzog,
the tribute that is due him. He
comes before the people asking for
reelection and there is no one to say
to him nay. He has no opposition.
This in itself is a high compliment,
but the Index feels that it is not out
\
of place to tell him on behalf of the
citizens of this town here and now
that he has made good as mayor.
Greenwood has made splendid and
extensive progress under his administration.
In the first few weeks of his administration
many of his friends felt
that the new administration was putting
into effect too many improvements,
that the improvement plan
would not hold out. But it held out
and there are more good things coming
forth.
It is a very sincere pleasure to tell
the mayor that he has surprised even
his friends; that he has made the
town one of the best mayors it has
ever had. Long may he be with us.?
Greenwood Index.
THINKS WAR CERTAIN.
Congressman Byrnes Says U. S. May
Be at War in 60 Days.
In the opinion of Congressman
James F. Byrnes, who has just reached
Aiken from Washington, the United
States will be at war with Germany
within the next sixty days.
It is Mr. Byrnes's opinion, as expressed
yesterday, that the arming of
merchant ships, which is now being
done, will lead to actual participation
by the United States in the European
struggle. There is no doubt but that
when an American vessel, armed with
decK guns, encounters a suDmanne
in the area which Germany has declared
a war zone, fire will be opened
on the submarine, and it has been officially
declared that in view of Germany's
declared intention of torpedoeing
without warning, American
merchantmen have the right to fire
at sight of a periscope. A clash between
an American vessel and a German
submarine will have the effect,
in the opinion of Mr. Byrnes, of beginning
actual ' hostilities, for it
would then be impossible to restrain
public opinion or hold it in check in
America.
In the North, says Mr. Byrnes, the
sentiment is for war, and while this
re not true in the South, as a general
thing, the people here standing ready
to fight against invasion but possibly
not to engage in what they believe
to be a quarrel originating between
European powers, there might be a
sudden change even in the attitude of
the people of the South. At any rate,
the sentiment for war in the North
wrml/1 ha rwtrar-arlialmin P- onH Ttrrmlri
" VW1U MV V T VI l*JL*Vfc " V UiU
carry everything before it!
There seems to be a very great
many people who believe that in the
event of war with Germany the United
States would merely send out the
fleet or would furnish munitions and
money and moral support to the allies,
but that may not be expected,
says Mr. Byrnes, who predicts that
instead of the tenor of life running
along smoothly and uninterrupted in
this country when war with Germany
is an actual 'fact, there will be no
half-way measures t^ten. In short,
in the opinion of Mr. Byrnes, the
United States will be recruiting men
for actual service in Europe within
sixty days, and that . an American
army will be sent to participate in
the struggle on European battlefields
as soon as it can be organized
and trained after war is declared.
Most well informed people share
with Mr. Byrnes the belief that the
i United States is drifting into war
with Germany, and that the actual
fact of a condition of war is not far
ahead.?Aiken Standard.
Celebrate Golden Wedding.
Williston, March 17.?Wednesday,
March 7, the friends of Mr. and Mrs.
W. A. B. Newsom had the pleasure
of helping them celebrate their golden
wedding. Seldom has a social
event been of such general interest
here. The house was decorated in
gold and green. The flowers also
carried out the golden idea; they
were everywhere in profusion and
particularly striking were the immense
yellow jonquils, brought from
Philadelphia for the occasion. From
the hall the guests were ushered into
the parlor where the bride and bridegroom
of 50 years received their
friends. They were assisted in receiving
by their relatives and contemporaries,
Mrs. Bussey, of Edgefield,
Mrs. Marshall Hair, Mr. and
Mrs. W. B. Matthews and Mrs. H.
Jeff Harvey.

The presence of all their children
and grandchildren completed their
joy. The children and their children
are: Mr. and Mrs. John Newsom and

and Mrs. Robert Black and son (Mrs.
Black was Miss Mattie Newsom), and
Miss Hattie Newsom. Mr. Newsom
is a veteran of the War Between the
Sections, serving from the beginning
until the battle of Chickamauga,
where he was very serious wounded.
Nevertheless, as soon as he was sufficiently
recovered, he went back into
the service ol his country, though '
not able to perform active duty.
- On March 7, 1867, he married Miss
Mary Elizabeth Matthews, daughter
of the Rev. Joe Matthews, a well
known Baptist minister. They have
lived their half century of married <
life in this community.
