V Speaker of the House Spends Short While in the City. Hon. Champ Clark, speaker of the national house of representatives, spent a short while in Bamberg last Tuesday morning. Mr. Clark made an address at Olar Monday night, leaving Tuesday morning for Holly Hill. He came to Bamberg, accompanied by Dr. L. A. Hartzog, and took the 8:43 train here for Branchville, to change for Holly Hill there. He was in the city for about an hour, during which time quite a number ~ ^ ?J? J AU ?-v-* M/vltr/vn a r of citizens anoraeu uiemacnw v; the opportunity of meeting the distinguished statesman. Mr. Clark expressed himself as being delighted with his visit to South Carolina. When asked concerning the extra session of congress, the speaker replied, that an extra session would be necessary, as some of the appropriation measures had not been disposed of before adjournment, but that it was not likely that the extra session would be assembled before June or July. The citizens apologized to Mr. Clark for the fearful condition of the roads, but he said that he understood this very well, as the roads in his State, Missouri, are not all that could be desired. In his home county, he said, there are 250 miles of fine gravel roads, but that in other parts of Missouri, they have the mud to' contend with as we have here during wet weather. Asked if it was likely the national government would ever build a system of highways throughout the country, Mr. Clark said that the government would doubtless construct some highways, but that a general system would likely be left to the States and counties. "It's as broad as it's long anyway," he said. "The people have to pay for the roads either way." Although one of the country's giant statesmen, Mr, Clark is a man of the plain people. He reminds one very much of the late Senator Tillman, being a self-made man. He was nlainlv dressed, and presented the appearance of an ordinary business man. His rise in politics has been gradual. He served in his State legislature for one term as State senator. Six years ago he was a i candidate for the Democratic nomination for the presidency. ^ )<) ^ j Kearse Red Cross News. I ! Guess some one has wondered if our auxiliary is extinct; no indeed, we are still very active. During the influenza epidemic it was impossible to have regular meetings; however, there were some meetings held and good work done. Our chapter met Wednesday afternoon, and held quite an interesting meeting; we adopted two French orphans (a boy and a girl) add agreed to send in check at once for their support. Some time ago our chapter shipped about three hundred pounds of Belgian supplies; we learned that one box of supplies was left unnoticed, and took quite a rest in the depot. We trust, though, that it has reached its destination long ere this; then we made quite a number of the little comfort bags, Belgian sewing, for the women and children, also a sweater or two was sent in. The .adies decided to order some sewing from the local chapter when adjournment was in order. Our treasurer reported quite a nice little bank account on hand. i CHR. OF PUB. Bad Roads Detained Governor. Bad roads in Bamberg county came very near causing Governor Coooper to miss the address of the Hon. Champ Clark at Olar Monday night. As it was he was prevented from introducing the distinguished speaker. The governor was on his way to Olar on a Seaboard train which was due in the Bamberg county town shortly after 7 o'clock. The meeting was to begin at 8 o'clock. At Denmark the rear coach of the train w$is derailed. It was soon seen that the train would be unable to get away from Denmark before 9 o'clock, if by that time. Friends of the governor, who were accompanyin? him to Olar. immediatelv beean an attempt to get him through to Olar. 12 miles distant, in an automobile. They were told that the roads between Denmark and Olar were practically impassable and that it v .Jd take at least one hour and a half to make the trip in an auto. It was seen then that no time would be gained by attempting the trip in a car so the governor waited on the train, arriving in Olar about 9:45 p. m. after Mr. Clark had begun his address. < ! > ? "I d'kno^ so much about this vur food conservatory business," grumbled Mr. Gap Johnson, of Bumpus; Ridge, Arkansas. "I don't see whur the saving comes in when my wife drains apple butter through my only straw hat." MRS S. H. COUNTS DEAD. Beloved Bamberg Woman Parsed Away Last Friday Morning. Mrs. Susan H. Counts, who was greatly beloved by a large circle of friends and relatives, passed away at her home in Bamberg on the morning of Friday, the 7th of March. The funeral services were conducted by her pastor, Rev. Geo. P. White, of the Baptist church, and interment ltook place at Restland cemetery. Her death was particularly sad, as only two months had elapsed since the burial of her son, Miss Pearle lior nnlv surviving dausrh vUUliVO, *4V* V ~ o w ter, being thus doubly bereft. Four sisters, Mrs. A. S. Easterling, Mrs. W. E. Spann, Mrs. Fletcher Spann, and Miss Roberta Johnson, and one brother, Dr. F. F. Johnson, also mourn her death. Mrs. Counts was a daughter of D". and Mrs. A. H. Johnson, of this community, and was 62 years old. Her husband, Mr. T. Julien Counts, a son of Senator T. J. Counts, of Barnwell county, preceded her to the grave many years. From girlhood she was a consecrated Christian, engaging earnestly in all religious works. Especially did she love her Sunday school and its infant class, which she taught for more than 30 years. She ever sought to guide the little feet in wisdom's ways, her influence being seen in many lives of men and women who have not departed therefrom. She also taught in the graded school of this place, and in many ways associated with thp life of the community. Giving largely of her comfort and time to those in her care, the sacrifice bore fruit in abundant love. Executive ability and a tender and affectionate disposition were common in unusual degree in her char~ XJ/V*. otir? ph oorf 111 mi 71 CHJtCi. HCi UUU istry smoothed many rough places for those about her. Many beautiful floral emblems and designs rested on her grave, a mute but eloquent tribute to the love and esteem in which she was held. The hearts of friends and relatives go out in deepest sympathy to the surviving daughter. Methodist W. M. U. Meeting. The members of the Woman's Mis'sionary society of the Methodist church were delightfully entertained several afternoon ago at the home of one of it's most devoted members, Mrs. W. P. Jones. Quite a number of members accepted Mrs. Jones's kind invitation to hold this meeting at her home. ^ ^ Mrs. B^W. Simmons, acting president, copducted the business part of the programme, and then asked Mrs. Glenn Cope to read the Bible lesson on stewardship. Several very helpful comments were made on same, and prayer was offered by Mr. Guilds, who had met with us in response to an invitation to address us on the great programme the Methodist church has launched, nameiy tne centenary. We were grateful to Mr. Guilds for his talk, and are hopeful that our society will do good work for this stupendous cause. To this end we want to secure new members, intercessors, and tithers. Mrs. E. O. Kirsh read a paper that she had written on tithing. This was enjoyed by all. She and others spoke of the joy that comes from tithing. Several names were added to our roll that afternoon. We <are glad to have folks join us. May our work and fellowship be both delightful and very profitable. We voted by ballot for our president. Mrs. Glenn Cope was elected, she having received every vote but her own. We count ourselves most fortunate to have secured the leadership of a woman so very capable. All the women seemed happy at the choice of a leader. Our part is to hold up her hands and encourage her all we can, for no matter how competent she is, she cannot do all. She needs and deserves the hearty support of each and every member. Let us see that she gets this. Before we left for our homes, the hostess served a very delightful a/%1 aaiiwaa W7rv 1 nff \Trc Tnn oc'c O v> CCt tUUi OU. M c lUlo, u uuvij w feeling glad that it was our privilege to sit a while under her hospitable roof, and with an earnest desire in our hearts to make Jhis the very best year all round in the history of our society.

ADOPTS FOUR ORPHANS. French Children Assigned to Bamberg A. R. C. Chanter The Bamberg chapter of the A. R. C. has received an acknowledgement of a check for $146, recently paid by this chapter, for the support of four fatherless children of France. This action was taken at a recent meeting of the chapter.

I am enclosing herewith a receipt for the above amount and also the names and addresses of the children assigned to your organization. We ask that if you desire to communicate with the children direct, that you. allow two months to elapse before doing so, for it takes fully that length of time to make the proper notification, at the end of that time, we are always glad to have you write to the children and ask any Questions about them generally. If photographs are requested they are always sent, and it is so arranged that they are no expense to the children. We appreciate very much your interest in this work and I wish to thank you and the other ladies for your help in this cause. Very truly yours, WALTER B. WILBUR. Trooenrpr Eastern Section of S. C.

The Columbia War Camp Community Service is asking the various towns of the State to help it entertain the soidiers who are still at Camp Jackson. The men who have returned from overseas are so popular now that the 11,000 men who did not get across from Gamp Jackson are left out of all the invitations, and camp life is a bit tedious and uninteresting to them. Wonder if the ladies of Bamberg county would not like to help relieve the monotony of camp for these boys? If so, invite a couple to spend a week-end in your home. Give them something more than a memory of those endless days at Camp Jackson to take to their homes with them. Many of them are Northern boys and we want them to take home a glowing picture of our "Palmetto State." We want them to say to their home people, "It wnc: to ho thpre." not "I i hope I'll never see that place again." These boys can be secured as guests at any time by writing Miss j Emiline Coles, War Camp Communi-J ty Service, Arcade Building, Colum- | bia, S. C. Shall we not continue to : do our bit? m *mt ??

ENTITLED TO $60 BONUS. f?:k Bamberg I )i charged Soldiers May Make Application for Checks.

This bonus is not payable to the heirs or representatives of any deceased soldier. Those who are discharged hereaf ter will receive this bonus on the same roll or voucher upon which they are paid their final pay. Those who have been discharged , > and have received their final pay without the $60.00 bonus, should write a letter to the Zone Finance Officer, Lemon Building, Washington, D. C., stating their service since April 6, 1917, the date of the last ? discharge and their present .address to which they desire their bonus checks to be sent and enclosing with this letter their discharge certificate or military order for discharge and both, if both were issued.
