CLAIM PREP CHAMPIONSHIP.
Carlisle School Has Had Another
Successful Season.

The Carlisle school baseball team
closed recently one of its best seasons
in baseball. The team held the prep
school championship for the State
in 1913, and while the record this
wear is not quite as good, still no
team has taken it from them. There
is a tie with Porter and Charleston
High School in way. Charleston
High beat Carlisle two games, Porter
beat High two games and Carlisle
beat Porter two out of three. An
attempt was made to arrange to play
off this tie, but the two teams could
not get together, as the season was
too far advanced.
Besides these games Carlisle play
ed and won two with Columbia High
school, one with McFeat-Bowen Busi-
ness College and one with the Caro-
lima Scrubs. The percentage for
school games is 625.
The Carlisle team has found it ex-
ceedingly difficult to arrange games
with other schools than these, be-
cause they do not offer sufficient
guarantee money. Some schools were
tried in the upper part of the State,
and they not only refused to offer
sufficient guarantee, but refused to
play Carlisle at all.
In view of these facts Carlisle again
believe they are entitled to the cham
pionship for another year, and there
fore claim it for 1914.
The members of the team are as
follows: S. A. Merchant, coach;
Francis Bamberg, pitcher; w. P. Fox
worth, catcher; O. c. Johnston, first
base; Oscar Owens, second base; r.
Ryan Woods, short stop and pitcher,
captain; C. w. Browning, third base;
w. J. Bowen, Jr., right field; Thos.
P. Duncan, centre field; Anthony
Walker, left field; H. Claude Par
nellie, pitcher.

Democrats Enroll.

The secretaries of the various
clubs of the county have opened the
enrolment books, in compliance with
the new rules of the Democratic
party of South Carolina, enacted at
the recent Democratic State conVen-
tion The books opened Tuesday
morning, and will remain open until
the last Tuesday in July, at which
time all enrolment books will be
closed, and no further registration
will be allowed.
Under the new rules, each voter
is required to personally apply for en-
rollment, signing the enrolment
book in person, or, if he cannot write
to make his mark. 1t is we'll for all
Democrats to bear in mind that all
club rolls of past elections have been
declared void, and no one will be
allowed to participate in the primary
whose name has not been enrolled
this summer.
Two years residence in the State
and six months in the county
are the requisites for enrolment this
year. Each voter is required to en-
roll at the club nearest his residence
and to vote at the same place. Here
tofore voters were allowed to cast
their ballots at any place they were
enrolled.
The secretary of the Bamberg cen
trail club requests the statement that
anv qualified voter who is too i'll tc
visit his office in the court house, OF
for any other reason it is not possible
to do so, to write or communicate
with him to that effect and he VII.
take the enrolment book to such
person for registration. Doubtless al
other secretaries are willing to do the
same, in order that all persons quail
fed to vote may be able to do so.
The books of the central club are
open in the office of the auditor, IN
the court house.
Up to Tuesday, noon, more thar
100 had been enrolled in accordance
with the new regulations.

Cleanup Days For Bamberg.


and 18th. The civic league at its
last meeting decided on the above
dates for a city cleaning for Bam-
berg. and who can deny that she
needs it? Let everyone become in
terested. And set to work at once.
Collect all vessels on your own prem
| ises and vacant lots near you and in
the streets; vessels that amount to
trash and that hold water, such as
tin cans, bottles, broken china or
crockery, oyster shells, etc., for it IS
in such things as these that many OF
our mosquitoes breed and cause ma
laria. Everybody in Bamberg can do
something toward making this "a
cleaner and more healthful place to
live in. Do something, and do all
you can.
The town is divided into four,
wards, and there are committees to
look after interests in each ward.
The children will be paid to do their
part at cleanup time. To each child
collecting cans and bottles will be
given five cents for every fifty col
lected. Children, place these in piles
in your ward and the ward committee
will call and count your number, you
will be paid at the rate of five cents
for every fifty. Get busy now, and
you have a good way of making pin
money, in addition to staving off doc
tors bills, and suffering. In addi-
ton to paying for cans and bottles
by the fifty, the league offers S1.oO
to the boy or girl having the most.
Will the merchants please clean in
the rear of their stores and get the
refuse ready for wagons to haul 1t
off? This is absolutely necessary to
the health of the town. Have your
places so clean that there will be
nothing to attract the flies. 1t seems
that there are more of these disease
carriers this year than usual, and it
is up to US to fight them if we expect
to ward off typhoid and other death
dealing troubles.
And, ladies, housekeepers of Bam-
berg, get the habit of doing little
of your marketing! Instead of phon-
ing or sending servant for every
thing you want from the markets,
20 down occasionally yourself and
patronize the man who keeps the
cleanest market, and by air means
the one freest from flies. If we eat
meat that has been crawled over by
flies from some ones back yard,
where there are typhoid patients, how
do you know that those tiny velvety
feet have not hundreds of those dead
ly germs left in their trail across
your delicious steak or roast.
We can't afford not to take a very
active part in this cleanup campaign.
Burn everything that you can possibly
burn, then pile for the wagons and
carts everything that is not burnable.
If everyone who has COWS or horses
will sprinkle a little lime in the barns
once a week it will kill the new flies
coming on. Keep this up all the
summer, and let us exterminate Mr..
Fly.
The chairmen of the ward commit
tees are Mrs. E. o. Kirsch, Mrs. B.
w. Simmons, Mrs. J. W. Barr, Mrs.
J. ]. Jones, and Mrs. Ed. Kirkland,
and each will count the cans, etc., in
her respective ward when Informed
