Not many days had rolled by after Father Time marked the passage of > the old year and there had been ushered in the year 1922 when quite a ? . number of Methodist women went to the home of Mrs. C. R. Brabham, Jr., who, assisted by Mts. Mary Cleckley and Mrs. Clarence Moye, entertained t our missionary society. The January meeting has come to ? be looked forward to year in and year 1 out as an important meeting. It is at this first meeting of the new year that we make our free-will offering pledges and gird ourselves for our task. Earnest effort is put forth to > v make the gathering at once happy and fruitful. This time, Mrs. E. O. *; Kirsch, who has loved and known different phases of the missionary "WorK as pernaps iew women ueieabouts have, was leader. Our new, attentive, capable and -consecrated president, Mrs. Otis Guess, called on Misfe Bessie Lee Black to offer prayer. This was a ? prayer for our Lord's divine guidance and blessings right here in our midst and for the same guidance and blessing to fall upon far away Africa and our workers mere. A short, original new year's message was read by our young president, who we can but feel has assumed this office as one should take up a great added responsibility. The reports were called for. The superintendent of social service's report includes an expenditure of $75 the past quarter for local charity. The treasurer read a report that filled our hearts with joy. It was the best * we have anv record of in the history " of our society. The amount of $500.22 was sent to the conference treasurer over and above expenditures in Bamberg. The superintendent of parsonage aid reported an expenditure and a balance in the treas.ury. A-report on Junior work was made by Mrs. Laurie Smoak who is ably assisted bv Mrs. X. P. Smoak. These faithful officers: Mesdames. Bamberg, Delk. Smoak, Smoak and Miss Cleckley have wrought well and have the gratitude of our auxiliary. Following the business, Mrs. Kirsch read a striking article on "The FaithK; - , - . ' j . . i ~ ' " ful Many." Surely no woman present felt that we could afford to let our .precious Lord's work to be done henceforth by "the faithful few." It <is altogether true that "the many need the chance to help do the savinor " Wp are nf the nnininn that our work will be more spread out this year. A bright future is just ahead. Within the past few months our workers have increased by choosing a number of our youn<5 matrons to lead meetings and to take part on programmes. Some unusually good extracts on the contents of the Gospel of Mark were read by Mesdames Move, Hen I derson, Aa Kirsch, Padgett and Miss Black. A vocal trio was sung by Mesdames Folk, Smoak and Henderson accompanied by Mrs. Moye on the piano. Mrs. Joe Stokes gave some facts relative to our sainted and be-, loved missionary bishop, Dr. J. W. Lambreth. It was he, in company with an influential negro, Gilbert, of our Paine Annex Institute who trod the soil of Africa and started our mission station in the Congo Beige. "An African Palaver," a splendid dialogue, treating of the Congo Beige and our work there was well given by Mesdames Bambeng, Kirsch, Dickinson, Burch, Folk, Guess, Bamberg and Smoak. During the social half-hour our hostess served a delicious salad course with coffee. We came away feeling glad that ! we had attended another missionary meeting.?Contributed.

Wilson, an Italian Liner. New York, Jan. 18.?The story of a seventy-five-foot whale, which was neatly cleaved in twain by the prow of the Italian liner Presidente Wilson, was related by passengers when the vessel docked ihere today. The Presidente Wilson was sailing in mid-Atlantic when the whale was sighted lying directly across tVio nnnrco of tho vpsbpI A hundred i and fifty passengers lined the rails | to see what would happen. Passengers along the port rail | heard a crash as the bow struck the ; huge mammal, saw the water turn pink, and saw the head of the whale float astern.

Frank Herndon, for several years connected as salesman with stores in Bamberg, has accepted a similar position with the Blackville Hardware company in Blackville, where he now is greeting his friends. Jones Angus Williams, Jr., accompanied by his mother, Mrs. J. A. Williams, went to Carleston last week to have his tonsils removed. His friends will be glad to know that he is now recovering nicely. A number of little boys of tender years were caught breaking into Redford's store on Broad street in this city Sunday night. The boys were all white and there were eight of them and all apparently too young to realize the seriousness of the error of their ways. The following named out of town lawyers were in Bamberg the first of this week on account of court: J. B. Harley, Solomon Blatt, James E. Davis and J. J. Bush, of Barnwell, Walter Dunlap, of Rock Hill, J. B. Salley, of Aiken, R. M. Jefferies, of Walterboro, and R. P. Searson, of Allendale. Mrs. W. G. Hoffman and young son, Gordon, have returned home after spending several days in Augusta where Gordon was taken to a specialist on account of a bad attack of rheumatism, and the little fellow's friends will be sorry to learn that it may be some little time until he is entirely well. J. Q. Adams, a former Bamberg citizen now residing in Charleston in renewing h-is subscription to The Herald writes: "You will find inclosed eheek for S2.00. for subscriDtion to The Herald for the year 1922. It just seems to me that I can not do without the paper; so let it come. Just like a letter from home. Success to you " Thanks, kind friend. A new venture was 4 ied in Bamberg last Friday whe' a car load of swine was shipped from this point to market in Greenville. In the car which was routed over the Southern railway were 92 foogs and along with them went four cattle. The animals were furnished by a number of our farmers who it is said received a fair price for them. This is probably the first time such business has ever been undertaken here and it is hoped this beginning may develop into a profitable industry for the farmers of this community. / Bamberg was threatened with another serious fire last Wednesday afternoon when a blaze was discovered on the second floor ol the old Johnson hotel building in the apartments occupied by E. C. Hays and family. The alarm was quickly sent in, a crowd gathered and the fire truck rushed to the scene, but fortunately the discovery was made before the flames had gained any headway and the fire was put out before any appreciable damage was done and without outside aid.
