STRIKE AT COTTON MILL.
Operatives. Demanding More Wages,
Walked Out Thursday.

Much surprise was expressed IN the
city last Thursday, when it was learn
ed that the Bamberg Cotton Mills
COMPANY had closed down the mill
Oh account of strike in the spinning
room. The strike seems to have had
no leadership and was without Or
ganization. The mill remained closed
throughout Thursday. Friday morn
ing the whistle blew as usual. OPP
eratives from other rooms were
drafted for the spinning room, and
the mill was soon in operation as
usual, excepting that a portion or
the machinery remained idle. Satur-
day a good many of the strikers went
back to work.
1t is understood that Wednesday a
committee of operatives made a de-
mand for an increase in wages ap-
proximating 25 per cent. increase.
Wednesday afternoon conference
of the mill management was held,
at which the matter was discussed.
It was ascertained that the market
for cotton goods had been decidedly
off since the declaration of war, and
that the mill was not financially in
condition to grant an increase at
this time. Following the refusal to
grant an increase, the spinning room
| operatives walked out Thursday
morning. The rest of the mill could
| not be operated with the spinning
room idle.
| Several conferences were held
| Thursday to secure a settlement OF
the matter in a manner satisfactory
to all parties. At a meeting of the
mill operatives, President Cope In.
formed them that not single order
for cotton goods had been received
since the declaration of war had been.
made, but that that day good price.
had been offered for considerable
quantity of goods. That while pres
ent conditions did not favor an in-
crease, the outlook was bright for
better conditions, and that it was
very probable the mill could increase
the wages within the next few weeks,
This seemed to satisfy most OF the
operatives, and many of them have
returned to their positions.

Play Ground Opened.

The Civic league play ground was
formally opened last Saturday after
noon at ) o'clock. The cOlored band
furnished music for the occasion.
1t is by nature beautiful spot.
Tall pines and spreading oaks fur
nish shade. beneath which the little
folks enjoy themselves in swings. slid
ing boards. etc. Seats have been
built around some of the trees, thus
providing comfortable resting places.
Mrs. W. P. Jones gave the child
rem a little talk as regards their de-
pertinent while on the grounds, and
left it in the hands OF the boy scouts
to see that her suggestions were car
ried out.
Boys and girls alike are expected
to behave just as though they were
in their own yards under the eyes OF
their own mothers. Altogether the
play ground compares favorably with
those found in cities-indeed 1t is
much nicer than some and as town
we can take just pride in that fact.
Most of the credit falls to the play
ground committee, of which Mrs.
Clarence Brabham is chairman. Mrs.
Newton Smoak. Mrs. Frank Bam0erg,
Mrs. F. o. Brabham, Mrs. Joe Brab-
ham, and Mrs. c. J. S. Brooker con-
stitute the committee.
May we not hope that1n the near
future, a play ground will be placed
where the children who work in the
factory can. gather and enjoy the
exercise and fresh air that their bod
les need and should have?-Contrib-
uted.
