NICE XMAS PRESENTS.
Peoples Bank Directors Remember
Officers Substantially.

A meeting of the directors of the
Peoples Bank was held in the Offices
of the institution Tuesday. The re-
port of the banks business for the
year showed the institution to be in
a very flourishipg condition-the best
year by far in the banks history. Two
thousand five hundred dollars was
carried to the surplus fund, and ST.
500 to undivided profits. A ten per
cent. dividend was declared. 81
AS an appreciation of their SER
vices during the year, checks for
$500 each were handed to the presi-
dent and cashier of the bank, and a
check for $500 to the book-keeper,
which were greatly appreciated not
only because of their intrinsic value,
but because of the spirit that prompt
ed the gifts.
1t was reported at the meeting that
the compiled statistics of the federal
reserve bank shows that the Peoples
Bank owns more Liberty and Victory
bonds than any other bank in the
South according to it's size.

The Apollo Music club met with
Mrs. George Smith Friday afternoon.
The president called the meeting to
order and an hour was spent in prac-
tice of .choruses. Business was then
taken up and a report of the success
of the carnival was given. The baby
show was especially attractive. The
mothers entered into it with a great
deal of enthusiasm. Little Joe
Frank Brabham won for the prettiest
girl, Robert Folk for the handsomest
boy, and Charles Lewis Spann for the
finest all around baby. The minstrel
given by the Carlisle cadets was
splendid and was enjoyed by every
one. The club made one hundred
and thirty dollars. It's pledge for the

pat" FOLEY DEAD.
Local Plumber Died Suddenly During
Night Last Friday.

To die suddenly unattended in the
dead of the night far away from
home and loved ones was the sad fate
Of Mr.. Patrick H. Foley, who passed
away some time during last Friday
night at the home of Mrs. S. E..
Nevis on Church street in this city,
where he was boarding. That even
ing Mr.. Foley suffered a severe fall
from the sidewalk in front of the
store of Rentz & Fielder, his head
striking first on the paved street be-
low the curbing. He was quickly
carried to his room and was not
thought to be seriously injured. The
fall, however, probably brought on
conclusion of the brain, death re-
sulting therefrom. 1t is said that
during the night the sounds of very
hard breathing were heard from his
room, but was not taken seriously,
although it is now realized that he
was probably in dying condition
then. Early Saturday morning MIR.
Foley was found dead in his bed. He
had no relatives in this section of
the country.
With some difficulty communica-
ton by wire was finally established
with his sister in Providence, R. I.
An undertaken from Denmark had al
ready embalmed the body, and this
sister expressed the wish that the
same be sent to Providence for bur-
ial. Accordingly it was shipped on
the II o'clock train Monday morning
for that point.
Many people in Bamberg did not
know his surname, but Pat, as he
was familiarly called, was known
to every one in this community. "Pat"
was big hearted, with jovial DISPOSE
tion and well liked by everybody. He
was a plumber by trade, was thor
ough in his work and was doing a
splendid business in Bamberg. He
came here an utter stranger several
years ago from Providence. 1t is
said that he had been married and
that he left two sons, one young
man about 20 years old. No other
relatives have been located. The de-
ceased was a man about 49 years old.
Considerable money remains to his
credit in the banks of Bamberg.

GREEN POND TRAIN CHANGE.
Important Revision on the Ehrhardt
Branch of the A. G. l..

AS a result of the canvass OF the
stu alton, Mr.. J. P. Walker, division
superintendent Of the Atlantic Coast
Line railroad, was authorized to
change the SCHEDULE on the Ehrhardt
branch so that the train will spend
the night at Green Pond and not at
Ehrhardt, thus giving better mail,
express and passenger service to Wal
terboro and other points.
Trains Nos. and 8 to be operated
and trains Nos. and 9 to be an

means that connection from Charles
ton will be made in the morning, the
train leaving for WATERFORD and Ehr-
harde at $40 o'clock. In the after
noon, returning to Green Pond, the
train will connect for Charleston with
tran No. 50, thus giving close Wal
terboro-Charleston connection.
Trains Nos. 4S and SO, between
Ravenel and Yonge's Island, will be
arnulled today and trains Nos. 49

better service to the people of Yonge's

The Hon. LaVerne Thomas, a mem
Der of the city council, spoke in be-
half Of that body, his speech being
the last of the evening. His words
were we'll put and his talk was en-
joyed. He reviewed to some extent
the work of the council in the past
and outlined somewhat just what 1t
hopes to ho in the future. Mr.. Thom-
as gracefully thanked the citizens for
their loyalty, cooperation and sup
port financially, morally and other
wise without which he sad the efforts
and services of the council would
have been of little benft to the city.
All in all it was one of the most
thoroughly enjoyable and appropriate
affairs of it's kind ever conducted IN
Bamberg, successful in every deta;l
and in line with our magnificent
white way and the paving Of Main
street. lust such celebrations as this
should be encouraged and interest
in them stimulated, especially after
this one was so we'll attended in spite
of such a disagreebly cold night.

BEGINS PASTORATE HERE.
Methodist Minister Welcomed to
Bamberg.-First Sermon.

The past Sunday was the first IN
our city of the Rev. S. o. Cantey,
pastor of Trinity Methodist church
in Bamberg, who has replaced the
Rev:a R. H. Jones, after two. years
here for Mr.. Jones. Welcome SER
vices were held for the new pastor
Sunday morning, and the largest con-
gregation that has attended the
Methodist church here for many
months enjoyed Mr.. Cantey's open
ing sermon. Practically all the seats
were occupied and the Sunday school
room had to be thrown open to ac-
commodate the people.
The minister made a very favor
able impression upon those who heard
him, and it is predicted that his popu-
larity with the people of Mullins,
where he has just spent four years
preaching, will be even increased in
Bamberg. He paid nice tribute to
the little city Of Mullins, and said
that he hoped the people Of rBam-
berg would not expect anything un-
reasonable from him, that he could
not do it all. To accomplish any
thing worth while he must have the
support, cooperation and help of
others. Every man had his part cut
out for him and every one must do
his very best towards fulfilling that
end; that he had been sent here to
do his own work, not somebody else's
also, and with Gods grace he was
going to do his full duty, and plead
ed that the members of his congre-
CATION do likewise and help him.
Sunday night a larger congrega-
ton than usual heard Mr.. Cantey
preach a short and excellent sermon.
The people of Bamberg welcome the
Rev. Mr.. Cantey and his estimable
family to our midst, not only relig-
iously, but also from social and
business standpoint, and wish for
them a happy and successful pas
torate here.

EARLY MAILING IS URGED.
Postmaster Says Local Post Office
Will Do Its Best.

Every effort will be made by the To-
cal postoffice to handle the Christmas
business with dispatch, Postmaster
Knight stated Manday, and if the
patrons of the postofice will OBJ
serve a few suggestions they will ma
terially aid the postofice force in
handling the unusual volume of
packages.
All packages should be securely
wrapped and addressed properly be-
fore being brought in for mailing
Much delay is frequently occasioned
by packages being loosely wrapped or
incorrectly addressed. Heavy paper
and strong twine should be used. The
address should be written plainly
with ink, and the address of the send
er should be written in the upper left
hand corner.
AS only a few more days, remain
before Christmas, postoffice patrons
are urged to forward their packages
at once, but patrons are again asked
not to bring in packages between the
morning mails, as the force is very
busy during these hours distributing
and dispatching mails. No addition
al clerks are provided for the local
office on account of the Christmas
rush. Any needed information re-
garding the proper sending of pack
ages will be cheerfully supplied.
