In the absence of any ruling to the
contrary it is to be presumed that
women will have full rights of membership
in the Democratic club meetings
next Saturday afternoon. As
voters they have the right to align
themselves with the Democratic party.
It is safe to say that the meet-*
ings will be orderly with the women
present; not that it is customary for
the meetings to be other than orderly
at all times. They will exert an exemplary
influence, and as women as
a body have never represented any"

not at all unlikely that they will be
a tremendous factor in the Democractic
party in South Carolina.
The first step toward the development
of "Greater Carlisle'' was taken
I
Thursday when the contract was
. awarded for the erection of the new
dormitory to. accommodate more
than one hundred cadets. A general
development scheme has teen worked
out for Carlisle school, the realization
of which will now be worked for
by the friends and authorities of the
school. Bamberg is a logical site
for an educational center, and Carlisle
school forms a splendid nucleus.
Within the next five or ten years Carlisle
Should be far more than a preparatory
school, although in its present
capacity it is filling a large func-1
tion in the educational system of
South Carolina. Carlisle is a real
asset to the city of Bamberg, and
every step in its growtn win continue
to be watched with ever increasing
interest by the many friends of the
institution here and elsewhere in the
state.
Says the Calhoun Times: "The
Bamberg Herald is discouraged over
the apathy of the public towards the
extravagance and useless commis
r;- ;\ sions in our state government. We
have been with you, brother, but the
jig is up. Call off the dogs. The trail
is too cold and the fox beyond the
reservations." No, friend, our dogs
if. decline to be leashed. The trail is
pretty cold, but the old time Indians
t hunted the more studiously when the
trail was hard to find, and he generally
found it. We are sorry our Calhoun
contemporary has decided to
lay down on the job, which is another
- evidence that the apathy is growing.
And .The Herald is not discouraged?
I quite. In fact, the people will wake
up, and there will be a considerable
quake in the awakening process. We
should very much prefer to see the
somnolence thrown off gradually. The
consequences would not be nearly so
shocking.
_ \ m m
v The information contained in an
article on another page of this newspaper
that the contract will be let
on May 8th for the building of the
road from Bamberg toward Branchville
to the Edisto river will be read
joyfully by a large portion of the
population of Bamberg county. This
is one of the most important and one
of the most traveled roads in this
section- It would be traveled more,
if it were a -good road. The people
inf the sections through which this
road passes deserve a good road, and
The Herald is glad that the county
authorities insisted on building it at
once rather than wait until after the
bridge over the Salkehatchie is built.
The Herald hoped that it would be
possible to do both jobs this year, but
if this cannot be" done, and the authorities
assure us* that it cannot,
then we think it better to proceed
with the Branchville road. We trust,
however, that it will be but a matter
of a short time before the reinforced
concrete bridge over the Salkehatchie
can be added to the county's
highway system, i
Utopia has been found, if our
friend, the Dillon Herald, will pardon
the phrase. In a recent issue,
discussing the fine* qualities of Dillon,
the Herald says this: "It is a
town in which there is no luaiing on
the streets or no chair-warming in
front of stores." What's the matter
with the Dillon folks? Is it possible
that they have forgotten or
never learned the joys of a rocker
in the shade of the old Main street
apple tree? Or, perhaps, the local
supply of checker boards has exhausted.
Or. again, the boll weevil
must not have become such a portentous
subject for street corner
conversation. A better explanation,
still, may be that our contemporary,
the Herald, is edited and published
by the genial Arthur Jordan, who
spent so many years of his life in
the environs of Bamberg that he just
cannot neip seeing tne gooa tnings
about his town. We cannot say that
we have many chair-warmers in Bamberg,
but loafers?well, we have just
a few; but, bless 'em, what on earth <
would we do without 'em? And. besides,
they are not loafers; retired
business men, capitalists, and gentlemen
of leisure they are. Of course,
if we did not have them?but, reverting
back to the original question,
Dillon has our congratulations. It's
a fine town; it has a fine paper, and i
the town ought to grow and prosper
with such a good patron as the Her- i
aid behind it.
The machinery of the government
of Bamberg county and .the state of
South Carolina is in the hands of the
Democrats and is likely to remain so.
It, therefore, is of the utmost importance
that the Democracy of South
Carolina should represent the highest
ideals of the commonwealth. The

foundation of the Democratic party,
and any improvement in the party '<
in this state must originate with the i
clubs. The club meetings will be ]
held next Saturday afternoon i
throughout, this county at four i
o'clock, unless otherwise advertised. '
If you are a Democrat, and it is a
thousand to one chance that you are, i
your place is in the club meeting of
your township. It is your duty to
see that representative citizens are
named as delegates to the county convention
and as county executive committemen.
The country is undergoing
a critical period; men of undoubted
wisdom and lofty purpose
are needed at the helm of the party.
If the wave of crime is to be banished
in this state, it will be the Democrats
in office that will do it. If the
prohibition law is to be enforced, the
job is up to the Democrats. It is,
therefore, of the greatest importance
that the party machinery should
represent the will of the law-abiding
m'tizonc The average Democrat will
have no voice save at these club
meetings. It is your opportunity to
participate in the affairs of the party.

that little Smith boy struck you, you
should treat him evenly more nicely
than before."
"I did, Ma," replied Willie. "He
made me."
