Orangeburg's second nine came over
this "wednesday morning for two games
with Bamberg's second team. One game
was to be played this morning and one

next year. Mr.. Willis was in Bamberg

We understand that the New Bridge
road is soon to be put in first class condi-
ton on both sides of the river. Our In
formation is that contracts for the work
on the Orangeburg side have already been
given out, and work will commence at an
early date. Several of our citizens have
been approached by parties from the 9th,
er side and asked whether Bamberg would
put her part of the road in good condition
as well, and they were assured that Bam-
berg would certainly do 50 in case the
other side should be fixed. This is mis-
erable piece of road, and we do trust that
the work will be done, and that right
speedily, for this highway is one of Bam-
berg's most important outlets. 1t is pos
sible that part of the $4,000 appropriated
by city council will be used for this pur-
pose, and it could not be spent better. Let
the good roads movement 60 on, and let's
have less talk and more work.
