THE OUTLOOK.
By the Observer.

1t is a very interesting thing to
talk with people. Ever try it? About
the only thing | would like about
loafing would be to talk TO people. |
like to join a group occasionally and
listen to the expressions of opinion.
They are so varied. And some of
them contain so much or so little,
and some contain nothing. Neverthe-
less they are interesting. 1t is a
rare thing that people of different
sympathies can see things the same
way. They think the way they SYM
pathize. For instance, you can stand
in the postoffice nearly any morn
ing while the mail is being put up
and hear our good German friends
or German sympathizers tell in vivid
manner how the Germans are going
to mop up" with the allied forces.
But the pro-Germans won't talk long
before somebody will speak up and
contradict every bit of it with the as
sertion that the Germans have no
chance whatever. Just depends on
the viewpoint. Truth is none of US
reason things out much. We just
believe things are going to happen
as we think they ought.

Enough of the war stuff. We
have to read too much of that in the
dailies before We can get to the
State news. That is one thing like
about the county newspapers. I don't
have to wade through so much war
news. They have not enough space,
and no inclination I am sure, to print
much of it. A two-inch paragraph,
which is a big plenty, tells of the fall
of Przemysl, while in daily it takes
a couple of columns to tell it. The
war has had one good effect on Amer
lea, though; that is it has caused our
farmers to plant large crop of
wheat. 1 noticed the other day in a
bulletin that the acreage in this State
was about 246,000 acres, and that re-
ports from 13 counties indicated a
yield in those counties of over 600,-
900 bushels of wheat. Fine busi-
ness. At the same ratio, we should
have made this year about. half
million barrels of -four in the State.
Let the Westerners keep the price Of
-four up if they wish? What care
We?

am told that a lot Of money is
sent out of Bamberg for things that
ought to be bought here. Well, that
is the case in many places, but it
should not be. Bamberg has plenty
of good stores. I know it for I see
them advertised in The Herald. Per-
haps there are good ones that don't
advertise, too. But as l rely on my
county newspaper to tell me about
Bamberg, l generally suppose that
all the good stores advertise. You
know it is the easiest thing in the
world to praise, and it is not at all
easy to tell people of their faults. /
don't knock-don't think that. What
I say is always said in the friendliest
sort of manner in an effort to help
and not hinder. Now, / am not 60
ing to knock" Bamberg's stores, but
l want to relate what a lady told me
the other day. She saw another lady
wearing an especially pretty pair OF
shoes. You know the ladies will no
tice in spite of the deuce what the
other feminine kind wear. Perhaps
the men do that too. Anyway, she
wanted to know where they came
from, what store in Bamberg. IL
was not pleasant for her to learn
that they were not bought in Bam-
berg. Now. I am not saying, mlnd
YOU. that there are not pretty shoes
in Bamberg. To my way OF THINK
ing there are several stores here SELL
ing perfectly exquisite shoes for the
,odies. but if the ladies want shoes
that are not sold here. it seems to
me that the stores should behoove
themselves to get the shoes they like.
For We all love the ladies. Ladies
first. If they want pretty shoes,
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1915-07-01

Personally 1 think the Washing
ton authorities are' the best in the
world. We have kept out Of war,
and there is less likelihood of war
than in some time. Suppose, if there
is war, We just put those crazy fell
lows who knock and criticize all the
time at the front.
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1915-07-01

pretty shoes they must have. And
dresses. And anything else they
want. Lord bless 'em. Amen. Mr..
Merchant, l know as much about
shoe stores as do about the khedive
of Cairo, but if you don't sell every
thing the people Of Bamberg want
to buy, how do you expect them to
spend their money here? If they
must go 10 Augusta or Columbia or
Charleston to get a pair of those
charming slippers, they are sure to
spend money for something else.
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1915-07-01

And there is another thing I want
to say, and l hate to do it, but while
am on the subject l will say 1t.
When a man wants to outfit himself
he has to visit about a half dozen
stores to get everything he wants.
The ladies' are treated better. We
have some perfectly lovely ladies'
stores, but the men-nix. Carry too
many lines. Too general. Don't
specialize. Not that it, bothers me.
Not in the least. don't outfit.
Haven't got the money; if I had 1t,
am past that stage. But we are talk
ing about keeping money at home.
Anyway 1 am willing to be incon-
venienced in order to leave my cash
at home. 1 will then get some of It
back. But, lots of people are not so
onsiderate-pardon the personal
bouquet. It's a fact. though.

Bamberg Loses Game.

The fastest and most sensational
game of baseball ever witnessed in
Williston was played off Friday af-
ternoon between Bamberg and VIII

torious by score of to 4. 1t was
a tie score, l to l, up to the sixth
inning, when Bamberg scored an
other and remaining so until the
eighth, when Bamperg scored am

when Mitchell, for Williston, led of
with two-bagger to right, followed
by Beard, Gooch, Browning and Will
lis, each getting two-base hit in
succession. scoring five runs, Rogers
having singled to left. The features
