Complimentary to Miss Annie Lou

of the season. Mrs. Henry j. 3:ab-
ham delightfully."- entertained a num-
ber of friends at a linen shower last

pulled, this opened and showered all
manner of pretty and useful linen
gifts down upon the bride-elect.

MIR. ID. j. Delk Hurt.

Mr.. D. J. Delk is carrying his arm
in a sling as result of injuries sus-
tained while being put off railroad
train down in Florida last week. Mr..
Delk was travelling at night and was
to get off at Punta Gorda. He went
to sleep and was carried past his
station, although the conductor knew
he was to get off there. He was car
ried on to a small station farther on
where there was nothing but saw
mill and nobody around, and when
he saw the conditions he declined to
get off. He was standing on the
steps at the time holding on to the
railing with his hands, not suspect
ing anything, when the conductor
suddenly wrenched his right hand
loose from the railing and pushed
him off the steps, wrenching his left
arm and spraining it badly. Mr.
Delk had to walk about eleven miles
to reach his destination, arriving af-
ter midnight. He says it was certain
ly a lonely walk, and he wished dur
ing the time that he had never seen
Florida. The railroad lost his suit
case as we'll, which was not put of
the train with him. although he met
the train crew next day and asked
that it be turne1 over to him. He
will no doubt enter suit against the
railroad for putting him off and for
losing the suit case.

Miscellaneous Shower.

Miss Annie Lou Byrd, most
charming and accomplished bride
elect, was honoree at a miscellaneous
shower given by her lifelong chum,
Miss FRANKIE Folk, at her attractive
home on Railroad avenue, last Fri
day afternoon.
The day being gray and cool, was
striking contrast to the interior
of this beautiful home with its deco
rations of pink roses, palms and
ferns. At the door the guests were
welcomed by Miss Louise Folk and
Miss Lalla Byrd. Miss Folk and Miss
Byrd received in the west parlor,
while in the east parlor Miss Wilhel-
nina Folk, Miss May Brabham and
Miss Ruth Byrd received. All Of
these wore exquisite frocks of lin
gerie and lace, except Miss Byrd who
wore a gown of Russian green velvet.
which emphasized her rich bruue.te
beauty.
Seven tables OF rook were played
progressively, a box of Nunnally's S
bon-bons falling to Miss Alma Black.
After delicious salad course. fol-
lowed by an ice course, was served,
Miss Kate Rentz played Mendelsohn's s
wedding march, at which time a
white express wagon appeared drawn
by two beautiful tots little Misses
Mary Aldrich Wyman and Margaret
Dowling. They entered the parlor
and drew rein at the feet Of the
bride-elect, and such shower! This
wagon load of dainty lingerie, en-
broidered linens, boudoir slippers
and caps, pretty bags, and other
things too numerous to mention, at
test the love and esteem in which
Miss Byrd is held by those who know
her best. The hostess gift was es-
pecially beautiful-a butterfly robe
de mutt" drawn in with pink rib
bons and a knotted rose made of the
ribbon. dainty designs of wild roses
embroidered in the front, with little
pink rosebuds scattered over the en-
tire waist. There we're others that
were also elaborate and beautiful.

Rockford, ILL.,, Joins Movement

The Ehrhardt Banking Co. has re-
ceived a letter from the FARRELL COM
pany, manufacturers of Rockford,
ILL.,, stating that that company has
organized a "buy-a-bale,"' movement
in Rockford, and that quite a num-
Der of bales had been disposed of at
ten cents per pound. This is very
significant information in view Of the
fact that Rockford is a Western city,
far removed from the cotton belt.
The letter also states that the peo-
pie of that place are in hearty ac-
cord with the movement, and are do
ing their utmost to help in relieving
the South Of its cotton burden. The
company has purchased large num-
Der of bales, leading the list.

HOSPITAL IS READY.
All Arrangements Completed for
Opening Institution.

The Bamberg County lnfirmary
has been completed, and everything
is now ready for the opening Of the
institution, which will be soon. The
hospital movement was launched in
Bamberg a good while ago, and while
the movement has been somewhat
slow in materializing, Bamberg now
has a most creditable infirmary, one
of which the county may we'll feel
proud. Practically all of the phy-
sicians of the county, and some re-
siding in neighboring counties, have
joined most heartily in the move
ment.
Miss Emma Bertrand, of Charles
ton, has been selected as the resi-
dent nurse. Miss Bertrand is a regis
tered nurse of much experience, and
a most capable woman. The hospi-
tai authorities feel that they are
very fortunate in securing her SER
vices.
The infrmary will be opened as
soon as the financial conditions show
improvement. At the present time,
it is not deemed advisable to under
take operating the institution, but
as this condition is only temporary,
the opening will doubtless not be
long delayed.
1t is stated that the infrmary will
compare most favorably with insti-
tutions in the cities. The accommo-
dations offered and the equipment is
fully up to the highest standard.

Important to Our Subscribers.

It is the custom of this newspaper
to keep its subscription list paid up
in advance. This is decidedly the
logical way, for it is presumed that
anyone who wants the paper will pay
for it. However, many Of our sub
scribers' papers expired during the
summer time, when money is scarce,
and we had no desire to deprive any
one of The Herald at a time when
it was very difficult to pay a dollar
and a half. We presumed that they
would pay promptly in the fall when
cotton is sold. We realize the fact
that farmers are endeavoring to hold
their cotton for better prices, but it
is also true that the majority of
them are selling some cotton at pre-
vailing prices. 1t is just as impor-
tant that they should pay their sub
scriptions as any other pressing
debt, for if there is any business in
Bamberg county that needs money 10
run on, it is the newspaper, who has
no one to look to for funds except
home people. Now, we want to ask
our friends to come in and pay up.
We do not want to cut any one off
the lists, but We would certainly ap-
preciate it if those who can will pay
us for the year, and if they cannot
and will tell US, we will be glad to
continue their paper. We have
pressing accounts to pay just like
everybody else, and we cannot pay
them unless our friends pay US. This
is important, and if your paper is
out, please send us dollar and a
half. There are few people who can
not spare that amount without a
great deal of inconvenience.

Mrs. Frank Leslie"

The Associated Press dispatches
tell in eight puny lines of the death
on the 18th of Mrs. Frank Leslie
only a few short years ago one of the
most noted women of the world. Mrs.
Leslie married a man much older
than herself, and when he died, in
1880, she took up his work as pub
Usher of a number of magazines, the
most notable one being Frank Les
lies magazine. She was beautiful
woman and very gifted. She made
great improvements in the magazine
and made a great deal of money out
of it-which was heavily in debt
when she took it up.
Mrs. Leslie travelled a great deal
and was known all over the world.
She spent the winters mostly in Flor
ida, and it may be interesting to re-
call the fact that she "discovered"
the grape fruit. Up to that time it
was regarded as a curiosity and was
not eaten; she showed how to serve
it and started it on its career of pop
ularity as the finest fruit that grows.
Mrs. Leslie was much courted after
the death of her husband, and after
some years she married titled for
eigner.
Going further back it is interest
ing to recall that Frank Leslie" was
first a pen name. He was really Hen
ry Carter and was born in England,
in 1920. While young man he
sent sketches to the London Illustrat-
ed News over the pen name Frank
Leslie" When he came to the
United States in 1S4S he had the
court to change his name to Frank
Leslie. Frank Leslie's illustrated
Newspaper" was founded in 1855.
If Mrs. Leslie had died twenty-five
years ago the newspapers would have
had many columns about her. Now
eight lines is all they give her

Bamberg graded school, Mrs. j. A.
Murdaugh is again teaching in the

again taken up school work and now
has charge of the fifth grade, and all
concerned hope that she will con-
tinue throughout the school year.
