The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1921-04-07

Cotton planters have nothing, ap-
parently, to encourage them this
year. The Augusta Chronicle Sun
day carried a letter from Texas
newspaper man, who ought to know
the conditions in Texas, in which the
statement was made that an estimated
ten per cent. reduction in Texas cot
ton acreage was big estimate. The
writer was inclined to believe that
there was not even this reduction. If
this is the case in the greatest cotton
producing state in the world, the one
to suffer most from an overproduc-
ton, it may be surmised that there
is not going to be any vast reduction
anywhere else. Without cut Of
from 25 to so per cent. those who
ought to know tell us there is no hope
for profitable cotton price this year.
We are not given to advice-the
farmers have already had far too
much of that from people who know
nothing of the farmers problems
but if we were venturing an opinion,
it would be that the farmer who fails
to make other provisions for an in
come than depending on cotton this
fall is going to be in a most embar-
RAISING position.

We have no idea who formed the
party who marked up" the town on
the night of March 81, under the
guise of All Fools Day entertainment,
and The Herald does not mind bit
the marks put on it's window. But,
calmly and dispassionately, what fun
can there possibly be in marking
show windows with all sorts OF
things, however harmless they may
be? It's rather an odd conception OF
fun. It does not add to the appear
ance of the town, it causes lot OF
unnecessary window washing, and,
strange as it may seem, some folks
like to have clean windows. 1t seems
that the party early in the night ran
out of cute things to write on the
windows, and, determined that ev-
erybody should share in the fun, by
window washing if nothing else, pro-
ceeded to utilize the balance Of the
time just marking. Meaningless
white marks were used when nothing
else could be though of. A harmless
joke never hurt anybody, but we just
can't see any fun in this sort Of prank.
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1921-04-07

ment Of the people, whether 1t be
social or business organization. How
ever. Wa wish to impress upon our
readers the fact that The Herald can
not exploit ventures into which IN
yiduals go for the purpose of making
nrofit. Therein enters the element Of
advertising. The Herald under no
consideration mixes its news matter
with advertising matter The line Of
demarcation is fixed by this simple
rule: Any venture, social entertain
Iment, or movement which is operated
or inaugurated for the purpose OF
making a proft-notices concerning
any of these sort of things must be
paid for at advertising rates. This
does not mean that any bona-hde
news concerning such activities may
not be published as news, but the or
binary run Of publicity matter is not
news. This rule applies to any notice
of entertainment which seeks to raise
money, even though the money may
be used only for very worthy cause.
We cannot undertake to determine
what causes are worthy of free ad-
vertising, if any should be given, as
that is largely matter Of opinion.
While on the subject, we might
mention another principle which may
or may not be sound, but it appears
to be a good one for newspaper pur-
poses. The Herald gladly publishes
all news submitted, whenever pos
sible, rof various activities of the Wo-
men. 1t costs us something to do
this. and The Herald does not feel
free to publish this matter, which in
terests only a relatively few persons,
where the organization interested
makes it a custom to go somewhere
else for it's paid matter. For instance,
we do not believe we ought to be call
ed on to publish matters pertaining to
an organization which, when it de-
sires to have some printing, sends to
Kalamazoo to have it done. Our rule
in such cases is to advise that the
Kalamazoo papers ought to publish
the free matter. We might also add
that we have no knowledge OF any
Bamberg organization that does this,
but it has been known to happen,
and we merely mention it as prln-
ciple.

Timmonsville Will Allow Removal.

Timmonsville, April lowing to
the increased telephone rates of the
Southern Bell company, which went

ton has been circulated throughout

citizens, NJ. H. Purvis and J. E. Han
cock:
1--WE, the undersigned subscribers

telephones until normal rates are re-
stored"
The petition, signed by sc per cent.
of the resident subscribers with sew
eral of the leading business firms
also, has been handed to the dis
trict manager of the company with

ice be discontinued Immediately.

ACID THROWN IN HER FACE.
School Teacher in Arizona Attacked
by Woman.

Jerome, Arizona, April Miss
Lucille Gallagher, a local school
teacher, and said to be member of
prominent family in Nevada, into
whose face acid was thrown last night
by Mrs. Irene Hopkins, was said to
be out of danger today. A Phoenix
specialist, said he believed he could
save Miss Gallagher's sight and that
few permanent scars would result.
Mrs. Hopkins, who was taken to the
county Jail in Prescott, refused to
talk. The county attorney at Pres
colt, announced a felony charge
would be placed against her.

Thursday, April Z, 1921.

1t is gratifying to those who aspire
to see a greater prosperity in this
county to note the attitude BamOerg
county farmers have taken in regard
to peanuts and tobacco. Practically
no profit was made on either crop
last year, but the vast majority OF
them are not willing to give up at the
first reverse. 1t is generally stated
that the acreage in both these crops
will be larger this year than last, and
it is safe to say that both crops are
here to stay, and that with the ex-
perience gained in the production OF
peanuts and tobacco, there will be no
loss from these sources this year.

Talking Sense.

An eminent physician was trying
to bring back to consciousness a wo-
man who had a paralytic stroke. For
a long time his efforts seemed to be
in vain, for her utterances we're only
the raving of delirium, but all at
once she sat up and, looking straight
at the doctor, cried out:
sOh, you funny old man.
"Ah," said the doctor cheerfully,
|'now she's beginning to talk sense" "

It's an easy thing to praise peo..
pie. Comes just as natural, and peo-
pie don't mind a bit if they exagger-
ate a little in telling folks Of their
good qualities. 1t is the hardest
sort of thing to tell the truth and
the whole truth. People need to
need the truth about themselves. We
would not be nearly so chesty about
the compliments we have others pay
US if they would likewise tell the
truth about our faults. Well, that's
a different matter, and I am getting
into unpleasant fields here.

There Was a Reason.

"Why do you turn out for every
road hog that comes along?" said the
missus, rather Grossly "The right
of way is ours, isn't it?'
"Oh, undoubtedly" answered he
calmly, GAS for our turning out, the
reason is plainly suggested. in this
epitaph which appeared in news
paper recently:

No candidates for mayor and al
dermen yet, and the election just a
month off. Folks, get busy. Let ev-
erybody who wants an office run. The
more the better. I have heard that
one member of council has said he
would not mind serving the town
again if he would have some oppo-
sition in the election and we're elect
ed. He would then know the people
were back of him. Come on, hope
The Herald will have lots of an
nouncements next week.
