If little work in the court of general
sessions is any indication OF law-abld'
ing people, then Bamberg county is en-
titled to the blue ribbon. Since April,
1908, the court of general sessions has had
but i've days work in that county: When
court convened in Bamberg Monday but
three cases were taken up; two OF the de-
fendants pleaded guilty and the other. a
minor case, was quickly disposed of. Few
counties can boast of such an enviable
record.-Aiken Journal and Review.

hereby requested to call and see our full
