SHORT LOCALS.
Brief Items of Interest Throughout
the Town and County.
The Bamberg Cotton Mills will
close next Wednesday at noon for the
holidays.
The many friends of Mr. R. L.
Risher will be glad to know that he
is improving after two very severe
attacks of acute indigestion.
At the grand lodge meeting of the
Masons in Charleston last week, J.
Wesley Crum, Jr., Esq., of Denmara,
was appointed a grand lodge steward.
Mr. G. M. Neeley, for many years
cashier of the Bank of Olar, has resigned
his position, and Mr. R. Fair
Goodwill has been chosen as his successor.
While cranking-a Ford last Saturday
night Mr. J. Grimes Hutto had
his right wrist jerked out of place.
The injury was very painful but it is
rapidly improving.
The friends throughout the county
of Mr. Robert Lee Kearse will regret
very much to know that he" is critically
ill with pneumonia at his home
in the Colston section.
The friends of Mrs. E. F. Free will
learn with much regret of her serious
illness. She was carried by Dr.
J. T. Carter yesterday to a hospital
in Charleston for treatment.
The coal shortage locally has been
improved recently and several carloads
of the fuel have been received
in the city within the past week, and
a few private individuals have succeeded
in- getting a supply.
Mr. Gilbert Beard, the young man
wKrt o/w^iriontaTiv ahnt himself thrnusrh
" UTV ?W*UV*?H**4V WMV* -? ?
the head last week while cleaning ja
revolver near town, has about gotten
all right again, and his friends are
glad to know that he was not seriousv
ly hurt.
The coldest weather of the season
was experienced in Bamberg this
week. The thermometer took a tumble
Sunday night and did not stop
until 28 had been reached, dropping
again Monday night\to 24. Many water
pipes were frozen.
This is the season ot the year when
many farm hands are changing their
1 surroundings and making arrangements
for the coming year, and it
' seems that more changes are being
made along this line in this section
than for many years past.
A Christmas cantata, "The Gift
of God," will be rendered next
Sunday evening at the Baptise
church by the choir during the usual
evening service hour. There will be j
no preaching services Sunday evening.
The public is cordially invite#.
It will be of interest to the friends
of Miss Blanch Spann to know of the
splendid progress she is making in
her work at Brenau College Conservatory,
Gainesville, Ga. Besides1
very creditable standing in all departments
Miss' Spann has received
' special mention in geology, which:

While Bamberg county h^s been!
experiencing a drought for the past
several months excessive rains
throughout the state of Georgia have
? caused the Savannah river as well as
r \
practically all other rivers in that
state to reach the flood stage, and
near Atlanta several people have
been drowned in the raging waters
of the Chattahoochie river.
Many of our people attended the
plays at the Academy of Music in
Orangeburg last week, and the plays i
5 and business generally over there are
being liberally patronized by Bamberg
people this year. Judging from
the way Orangeburg county keeps up,
or fails to keep up, the road and
bridges on that side of the line,
however, this patronage is neither
appreciated nor desired.
Schools Get Extension Funds.
Stat aid has been paid to
South Carolina schools from the legislative
appropriation for lengthening
school terms amounting to $27,531,
two hundred and ninety-eight
school d stricts participating in the

WHITE WAY OPENED.
Celebration Monday Night on Com-*
pietion of Civic Improvements.
At half past seven o'clock on Monday
night the brilliant lights of Bamberg's
white way from the railroad
to the cotton mill blazed forth in full
blast for the first time signalling to
the world the fact that the dream of
our people for the past decade had
at last been realized, that the town
of Bamberg with its public spirit,
prosperity and advancement was placing
itself in line with the foremost
little cities of South Carolina. The
rays of the white lights gleaming on
the clean paved Ma.a street produced
a setting novel to the people of Bamberg
and the whole street was as
bright as day. The affair was ushered
in with a joyous loyal celebration
participated in by some 700 people
as an evidence of their loyal interest
and civic pride in the progress
and upbuilding of the city of Bamberg.
There were present citizens of
every class, color, age and sex, ranging
from the tiny tots dancing with
glee to the strains of Carlisle's excellent
band, to the mischievous
youths popping fire works, gay lads
and lassies, the dignified city fathers,
and those who in their old age could
revel in pride thsft though destined to
soon pass from it forever they could
leave to their posterity as a priceless
heritage this greatest accomplishment
yet achieved in the history of
Bamberg. Everybody seemed to be
in a hilarious and happy mood, and
the celebration was enlivened and
turned into a wholesome entertainment
by the splendid exhibition of
drilling performed by our own 225
Carlisle cadets in addition ta a number
of selections well rendered by the
school band: The paving ofv Main
street and the construction of the
white way h^ve been completed by
an expenditure of approximately $24,000,
all of which was raised by subscription
and paid by the abutting
?n/3 M ati/Iov nisrht
pruycrtj' uwucis, auu hawuuuj
it seemed that everybody was out to
congratulate the other fellow upon
| the good work and to say to the city
council, "well done, thou good and
faithful servints."
Automobiles were forbidden to
park along Main street, and the cadet
| corps of Carlisle school accompanied
by their officers and band paraded
in close order drill through the street
to the old Johnson hotel, where they
weTe halted. The band added much
to the occasion; it deserves special
praise and is to be congratulated for
its good work. The student body
was put through a period of close order
drilling and the manual of arms.
The young cadets conducted themselves
with soldierly bearing and executed
the lusty commands of Maj.
W. C. Duncan with military precision
and accuracy in splendid unison and
marched with surprisingly good cadence.
The entire cadet corps was
admired by the public present, and its
exhibition was favorably commented
upon by even those who had been in
the army. Their part of the program
was an honor to themselves and
a credit to the institution which they
represent.
Over the sidewalk on the porch of
the old hotel building the mayor and
memDers or tne city council, an young
men, were in attendance heralding
to the outside public the fact that
during the past few years Bamberg
was emerging from civic improvement
obscurity and impressing upon the
state and country at large as we ourselves
already know that we have today
the very best town in th^e state
of South Carolina. Col. J. Caldwell
Guilds acted as master of ceremonies,
and, as usual1, was more than equal
to his part, and made some very appropriate
remarks. He introduced
as the orator of the evening, J. Carl
Kearse, Esq., of the local bar. Mr.
Kearse's address was tactfully brief,
but eloquent, and in keeping with
the sentiment and spirit of the occa- 1
s'on. At one point in his speech, Mr.
Kearse inspired an interruption of
hand-clapping from the audience, and
as he concluded he was greeted with ,
nrnloneed aoDlause. The SDeaker
paid a fitting tribute to Mayor J. J.
Smoak and the members of Bamberg's
city council, and stated that
within a very short time they would
have expended the sum of $50,000 so
wisely and judiciously that improvements
will have .been realized the
equivalent of which have never been
j even contemplated by any previous
city administration. And yet these
needs were being met and overcome
with such good judgment and business
abTty and loyalty on the part
of our citizens that no burdensome
debt was being incurred. Mr. Kearse
said, "however, that we must not rest
on our laurels, but appealed to the
people to be up and doing. He discussed
several other minor improvements
badly needed in our town and
advanced the idea of a complete and
adequate sewerage system and urged
the citizens and the counc:l to rally
to its support even to the extent of
bond'ng the town if such a course
should prove necessary. He said that
with so much good work already put
forth there was much yet to be done,
BEGINS PASTORATE HERE.
Methodist Minister Welcomed to
Bamberg.?First Sermon.
The past Sunday was the first in
our city of the Rev. S. O. Cantey,
pastor of Trinity Methodist church
in Bamberg, who has replaced the
Rev:3 R. H. Jones, after two. years
here for Mr. Jones. Welcome services
were held for the new pastor
Sunday morning, and the largest congregation
that has attended the
Methodist church here for many
months enjoyed Mr. Cantey's opening
sermon. Practically all the seats
were occupied and the Sunday school
room had to be thrown open to accommodate
the people.
The minister made a very favorable
impression upon those who heard
him, and it is predicted that his populot-ifv
uritVi tho nonnle nf Mnllins.
lUrl XtJ n A Vti W**V .v ?' ? ? - - I
where he has just spent four years |
preaching, will be even increased in
Bamberg. He paid a nice tribute to
the little city of Mullins, and said
that he hoped the people of Bam-|
berg would not expect anything un-|
reasonable from him, that he could
not do it all. To accomplish anything
worth while he must have the
support, cooperation and help of
others. Every man had his part cut
out for him and every one must do
his very best towards fulfilling that
end; that he had been sent here to
do his own work, not somebody else's
also, and with God's grace he was
going to do his full duty, and pleaded
that the members of his congregation
do likewise and help him.
Sunday night a larger congregation
than usual heard Mr. Cantey
preach a short and excellent sermon.
The people of Bamberg welcome the
Rev. Mr. Cantey and his estimable
family to our midst, not only religiously,
but also from a social arid
business standpoint, and wish for
them a happy and successful pastorate
here. v

NICE XMAS PRESENTS.

Peoples Bank Directors Remember
Officers Substantially.
A meeting of the directors of the
Peoples Bank was held in the offices
of the institution Tuesday. The report
of the bank's business for the
year showed the institution to be in
a very flourishing condition?the best
year by far in the bank's history. Two
thousand five hundred dollars was
carried to the surplus fund, and $2,500
to undivided profits. A ten per
cent, dividend was declared.
As an appreciation of their services
during the . year, checks -for
$600 each were handed to the president
and cashier of the bank, and a |
check for $300 to the book-keeper,
which were greatly appreciated not
only because of'their intrinsic value,
but because of the spirit that prompted
the gifts.
It was reported at the meeting that
the compiled statistics of the federal
reserve bank shows that the Peoples
Bank owns more Liberty and Victory
bonds than any other bank in the
South according to its size.
The Apollo Music Club.
The Apollo Music club met with
Mrs. George Smith Friday afternoon.
The president called the meeting to
order and an hour was spent in practice
of choruses. Business was then
taken iin and a renort of the success
of the carnival was given. The baby
show was especially attractive. The
mothers entered into it with a great
deal of enthusiasm. Little Joe
Frank Brabham won for the prettiest
girl, Robert Folk for the handsomest
boy, and Charles Lewis Spann for the
finest all around baby. The minstrel
given by the Carlisle cadets was
splendid and was enjoyed by every
one. The club made one hundred
and thirty dollars. Its pledge for the
drainage fund will be paid out of this.
At a late hour the hostess served a
delightful sweet course.

and gave sound practical reasons why
we should get busy and keep the good
work moving.
The Hon. LaVerne Thomas, a member
of the city council, spoke in hehalf
of that body, his speech being
the last of the evening. His words
were well put and his talk was enjoyed.
He reviewed to some extent |

and outlined somewhat just what it
hopes to ho in the future. Mr. Thomas
gracefully thanked the citizens for
their loyalty, co-operation and support
financially, morally and otherwise
w'thout which he said the efforts
and services of the council would
have been of little benfit to the city.
All in all it was one of the most
thoroughly enjoyable and appropriate
affairs of its k:*nd ever conducted in
Bamberg, successful in every deta'l j
and in line with our magnificent
white way and the paving of Main
street. Just such celebrations as this
should be encouraged and interest
in them stimulated, especially after
this one was so well attended in spite
of such a disagrcebly cold night.

"PAT" FOLEY DEAD.
Local Plumber Died Suddenly During
Night Last Friday.
To die suddenly unattended in the
dead of the night far away from
home and loved ones was the sad fate
of Mr. Patrick H. Foley, who passed
away some time during last Friday
night at the home of Mrs. S. E.
Nevils on Church street in this city,
where he was boarding. That evening
Mr. Foley suffered a severe fall
from the sidewalk in front of the
store of Rentz & Felder, his head
striking first on the paved street below
the curbing. He was quickly
carried to his room" and was not
thought to be seriously injured. The
fall, however, probably brought on
concussion of the brain, death re*
sultmg therefrom. It is said that
during the night the sounds of very
hard breathing were heard from his
room, but was not taken seriously,
although it is now realized that he
was probably in a dying condition
then. Early Saturday morning Mr.
Foley was found dead in his bed. He
had-no relatives in this section of
#the country.
With some difficulty communication
by wire was finally established
with his sister in Providence, R. I.
An undertaker from. Denmark had already
embalmed'the Dody, and this
sister expressed the wish that the
same be sent to Providence for burial.
Accordingly It was shipped on
the 11 o'clock train Monday morning
for that point.
Many people in Bamberg did not
know his surname, but "Pat,"' as he
was familiarly called, was known
to every one in this community. "Pat"
was big hearted, with a jovial disposition
and well liked by everybody. He
was a plumber by trade, was thorough
in his work and was doing a
splendid business in Bamberg. He
came here an utter stranger several
i years ago from Providence. It is
j said that he had been married and
that he left two sons, one a young
man about 20 years old. No other
relatives have been located. The deceased
was a man about 49 years old.
Considerable money remains to his
ir> th<* hanks of Bambere.
EARLY MAILING IS URGED.
Postmaster Says Local Post Office
Will Do Its Best.
Every effort will be made by the local
postoffice to handle the Christmas
business with dispatch, Postmaster
Knight stated Manday, and if the
patrons of the postoffice will observe
a few suggestions they will materially
aid the postoffice force in
handling the unusual volume of
packages.
All packages should be securely
wrapped and addressed properly before
being brought in for mailing.
Much delay is frequently occasioned
by packages being loosely wrapped or
incorrectly addressed. Heavy paper
and strong twine should be used. The
address should be written plainly
with ink, aiid the address of the sender
should be written in the upper left
hand corner.
As only a few more days remain
before Christmas, postoffice patrons
are urged to forward their packages
at once, but patrons are again asked
not to bring in packages between the
morning mails, as the force is very
busy during these hours distributing1
and dispatching mails. No additional
clerks are provided for the local
office on account or tne unrisimas
rush. Any needed information regarding
the proper sending of packages
will be cheerfully supplied.
GREEN POND TRAIN CHANGE.
Important Revision on the Ehrhardt
Branch of the A. C. L.
As a result of the canvass of the
situation, Mr. J. P. Walker, division
superintendent of the Atlantic Coast
Line railroad, was authorized to
change the scehdule on the Ehrhardt
branch so that the train will spend
the night at Green Pond and not at
Ehrhardt, thus giving better mail,
cnrMs and nassenaer service to Wal
xr w
terboro and other points.
Trains Nos. 7 and 8 to be operated
and trains Nos. 8 and 9 to be annulled
on and after today.' This
means that connection from Charleston
will be made in the morning, the
train leaving for Walterboro and Ehrharde
at 9.40 o'clock. In the afternoon,
returning to Green Pond, the
train will connect for Charleston with
tra;n No. 82, thus giving a close Walterboro-Charleston
connection.
Trains Nos. 48 and 59, between
Ravenel and Yonge's Island, will be
annulled today and trains Nos. 49
and 5S operated, thus giving a much
better service to the people of Yonge's
Island and Edisto Island.?News and
