The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1917-06-28

The Aiken Journal and Review in
its last issue contained an item of
news that is likely to be misleading.
1t is headed Aiken County Leads
the State" and states that the Aiken
recruiting Office has Won the blue rib
bon for securing the largest number
of recruits. 1t may be true, and
doubtless is, that the Aiken recruiting
Office has secured the largest proper
tionate number of recruits, but the
recruits must not have come from
Aiken county, for, according to g
statement given out by the govern
ment for enlistments during the pc
riod of April to June IS, Aiken
county recruits numbered II out of
an allotment of 81. Bamberg coun-
ty recruits numbered Is out of an
allotment Of 3S-thus leading Aiken
county by long odds. In fact, Bam-
berg county outaumbeced all cOun-
ties in the Aiken sub-district, in
which Bamberg county is placed, as

Everybody admires a game loser.
The following letter appeared in the
Charleston American a few days ago,
over the signature of John Richard
son." who pleases to style himself an
cold time Bleaseite. The letter is
addressed to "Cole L. Blease, ESQ.,,
chairman, Columbia, S. c.:
Dear Sir:-I am "reformer." You
have been our standard bearer" but
I must say l am greatly surprised at
your protesting Governor Manning's
appointments for selective committee.
When you were governor of South
Carolina, your slogan was none
need apply for Office or appointment
except he be Bleaseite.' You stated
time and again on stump and in pa
pers that "only Bleaseites would be
recognized and 3D. those who
opposed you.
Now the shoe is on the other foot
and you are raising h because
Governor Manning has appointed his
friends and only a few Bleaseites.

How many submarines has Germany
in operation? Information from neu-
trail countries is to the fleet that the
total number sent to sea since the
beginning of the war has been 1926,
with from eighty to 100 sunk Or cap
tured by the British. Of the newest
type, however, there are only about
40 in operation. Each of these carry
crew of Sc men, thirds of the
crews being experienced and one-third
novices.
It's the new type of submarine that,
of course, is most formidable. This
machine of destruction has a, speed
sufficient to overtake any cargo mer-
chairman, has room for a fortnight S
stores, and can remain submerged for
ten hours, and can descend from 100
to $50 feet below the surface.
A characteristic that puts these
submarines above their fore-runners
is that each has two periscopes. The
Old submarine can be sunk by shoot
ing away the periscope; the new ones
cannot, because when one periscope is
shot away the other is put into oper-
alton.

The idea OF having two periscopes
instead of one gives the entente great

from the pitchers hands. And ever
since, when at bat, they "back away
from the plate"
A man who "backs away from the
plate" in baseball or on the broader
fields of life, is going to be an also
ran player or worker. The baseball
players referred to, were on the road
to distinction until the ylost their cour-
age-every time they go to the plate
they are afraid of being hit on the
head, and are moreintent upon not
getting hurt than they are of hitting
the ball. They are back in the
minors"
The lesson for all is that to sue
coed there must be no "backing" away
from the plate" TO succeed-in base
ball as in life-one must be like a
Ty Cobb, who hugs the plate-who
pushes his body over it SO far that
onlookers fear he is going to get
hurt, instead of Cobb doing the fear
ing!
Hug the plate!-your duty, your job,
your opportunities! Don't fear get
ting hurt-let the others fear for you!

get sluggish: the eliminative tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained in
the blood to poison the entire system.

feet: a foundry, 65X125 feet: and a
warehouse, 34x200 feet. There is also
vacant ground measuring 150x3l0 feet
