CONTRACTS IT, RE MAILED TORONS

Several Players Disgruntled Over Receive More Paw and Threaten to Jump-Mole}n Town To
 night-Baseball Sap Rise
Dy RICHARD r.

Contracts will be mailed to every player on the Baron roster in February 10, which will contain salary reductions in accord ance with the rule adopted at the annual meeting of the directors of the Southern league. If any of the players cannot see their way to sign these contracts they will be allowed to jump to the Federal league or anywhere else that they see fit, as the local management is determined not to dicker with disgruntled and dissat- isfied players this season.
 The above was the gist of a statement by President Robert Baugh of the Bir- mingham Baseball association, yesterday afternoony in regards to the threats of several of the local ball tossers to desert organized baseball and cast their fortunes with the outlaw Federals unless large in- creases in salary were granted. The terse comment of President Baugh on this phras of the situation is illustrative of the attitude Of the Birmingham management and quite possibly the majority of the fans.

Is the Great Part of the High Cost of
Living.

You can figure the tariff and YOU
can cure the trust and you can fig
ure the combination you don't
get the right thing on the cost of
high living unless you take in the
dead beat and the delivery system.
You go to your grocer and look
over his books and you will see that
from ten to twenty per cent. is loss
on the dead beat who never pays a
bill. He gets away with the goods
somehow. The Merchants associa-
tion has him marked; the grocer
knows he never pays-but somehow
he finally gets on the books and be-
fore he is refused further credit he
owes anywhere from ten to hun
dred dollars. He is going to pay
next week. He has all the de luxe
hard luck stories ever dreamed of by
mortal man. He has had sickness.
He is just going to get job; he is
going to pay the first of the month
and wants little further accommo-
dation and the merchant gives up
and it means the man who pays cash
also pays for the dead beat-or, the
merchant goes out of business. The
dead beat means ten per cent. or
more on your grocer's bill. 1t means
sometimes more than that.
And then comes the delivery busi-
ness. The grocer must keep two or
three delivery wagons. 1t is either
horse feed or gasoline and a driver.
And Mrs. Whatsername rushes to the
phone and wants a box of matches
sent right out-and the five cent box
of matches is delivered and it costs
twenty-five cents to deliver it-but
Whatsername is a good customer and
it wouldn't do to turn her down.
Then there is grand rush about ten
in the morning and extra delivery
ClSfhS diS CdllSu LII e1Ao IAOa eAAShS
is a grand rush the rest of the day
but the expense goes on. The mer-
chant must charge this to some &C
count. He must make profit
enough on the goods to pay his ter
rible toll, and you can safely figure
that the dead beat and the delivery
system costs you s25 on every 500
worth of goods you consume-and If
that isn't pretty toll what is? But
these figures can be verified Often
the merchant doesn't know it. Hard
ly ever makes more than a living
and sometimes he doesn't make that
in the grocery business. He has an
other ten. per cent. loss on green
goods and fruits and things like that
and by the time the ultimate con-,
sumer gets his food he has paid the
high prices which modern civiliza-
ton and modern deadbeatism de-
mand.

idends.
Two building and loan associa
tions are operating in the city at this
time. One, the Young Mems Build
ing and Loan association, is round
ing out it's allotted life, and will soon
wind up it's existence. The other,
the Standard Serial Building and
Loan, has been operating for several
years, and is in most healthy con-
dition.
These associations have been OF
untold benefit to the people of the
town. There are in Bamberg per-
haps more people of moderate means
who own homes than are to be found
in most cities of the State. This con
dition is no doubt traceable to the
operation of the mutual building and
loan companies. Both associations
are entirely mutual, and are not de-
signed as. money-making enterprises,
but operated solely for the purpose
Of helping their members.
Mineral Springs.
Near the city is located one OF the
best mineral water springs in the
State-Glendale springs. The spring
has a squirting stream of water o.
some 100000 gallons per day, and
it's analysis shows it to be a curative
water of great medical value. T he
spring is owned by Col. John F. Folk
and there is a probability of the
spring being developed some time in
the future. At present considerable
water is being shipped from BAN
berg.
Bamberg is ready to welcome the
investment of capital with open
arms. She feels that she is capable
of taking care of any industry that
any town of it's size can accommo'
date. and with the advantages it Of
t6rS nGr C1ClZ0uS UGllSfO IhoI eAAJ
concern could very faverably consld'
er this city as a possible location.
Bamberg has two of the largest
ginneries in this section of the State
The Cotton Oil Co. and the Farmers
Ginning Co. are each equipped with
large system ginneries, and have
capacity for about 200 bales per day
Both ginneries have large clientele
from miles around, and have to ru1
day and night during several month:
of the ginning season to take care
of the output.
All in all, Bamberg feels a pardon
able pride in herself. While she il
not so large as some of her siste1
cities, she has the making OF big
fine city and her citizens confldentl.
believe that to dream of Bambers
being a leader among cities is no
a wasting Of energy.

Bamberg has two newspaper Of
fees. One of these, the Bamberg
Herald, enjoys the distinction of be-
ing one of the neatest offices in the
State, and the equipment is describ-
ed by visitors as being better, per-
haps, than any to be found in a town
of similar size in the State, and COM
pairing very favorabiy with offices in
much larger cities.
Bamberg has three stable bank
ing houses, and there are eight banks
in the county, each doing large and
thriving business. The town boasts
Of three good drug stores, two Ia
dies furnishing stores, an enter
prising motion picture theatre, etc.
The city has one of the best
equipped postofices of any town o1
the size in the State. The building
was recently completed, being built
and owned by Postmaster A. w
Knight.
An industry of no mean import
ance in the county is the cotton seec
oil mills. There are two-the Cot
ton Oil Co., of Bamberg, and the
Denmark Oil & Fertilizer Co., o.
Denmark. Both concerns are doing
a large business and reaping nice div

was very gratifying.
The Historical Paper.
Miss Horton said in her paper that
the school began its existence in June,
1910, but that the number on the first
roll was a matter of question. one au-
thority giving % and another 80, as
making up the list of those who gath
cred for their first sessions in a hall
in the building on Main street where
". J. Pentland now has his plumbing
business. Less than year later the
church on Elliot street was dedicated,
and the church and Sunday school had
home.
That early school room had no chairs
or tables, no classrooms, no kindergar-
ten and primary rooms with low chairs
but classes were scattered here and
there III the church, the little legs OF
the children Just hanging over the pew
seats or sticking out straight before
them, and there was no piano or organ
no quarterlies or lesson papers, but in.
stead a book full of hard questions
about the Bible, and answers which
must be learned, not looked up after
arriving in class.

The paper contained an exceedingly
interesting review Of the various ac-
tivities of the school down through the
years, which cannot be mentioned in
this article.
High water mark of the school was
reached in the early seventies. During
1872, POI members were added to the
school with a net gain of 166. The
following year the membership climb
ed to 700 in the home school and
about 200 in the West Brattleboro
school, from which the church in that
village grew. 1t was at about this
time that the average attendance
reached 800, the elusive goal which is
the schools aim to again reach.
One paragraph which should not be
omitted was as follows: ssOur school
has been in the forefront of very many
OF the advance movements in Sunday
school work, and if you have noted the
dates of these important forward steps
you will find that the majority of them
have been suggested and carried to
successful outworking in the school by
our present superintendent, Luther w.
Hawley. Long may he be spared to
us,' Loud continued applause follow
ed the reading of this paragraph.
