COL. GUILDS ELECTED.
Becomes Grand Vice Chancellor of
South Carolina Pythians.

At the annual convention Of the
South Carolina grand lodge Knights
of Pythias at Greenwood last week,
Col. J. c. Guilds, formerly headmas-
ter of Carlisle school and a leading
citizen of Bamberg for many years,
was elevated to the office of grand
vice chancellor of the Pythians in this
state. At the convention of the grand
lodge last year Col. Guilds had a
very high honor conferred on him by
being elected grand pleate, an office
in Pythianism for which he was not a
candidate previous to his attendance
upon the convention. The honor was
all the greater because of the fact
that COL Guilds had been a member
of the order only a few years, but
during this time he had taken a great
interest in the affairs of the order.
Local friends Of Col. Guilds feel
very proud of the fact that Bamberg
lodge has produced an officer in the
order of high rank. Pursuing the
custom that has prevailed for years,
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1921-06-02

Col. Guilds will be elected grand
chancellor next year. This is the
highest honor in the gift of South
Carolina Pythianism. Col. Guilds
was elected to membership in the
Bamberg lodge and received his ranks
here. Upon his election to the presi-
dency of Columbia college, his mem
bership was transferred to one of the
Columbia lodges.
Capt. Henry c. Tillman, of Green
wood, was elected grand chancellor
at the Greenwood meeting, and James
H. Craig, of Columb bia, grand prelate.
The next convention goes to Spartan
burg in 1922.
J. J. Heard, retiring chancellor
commander, and l.. B. Fowler, past
chancellor, represented Bamberg
lodge, No. 3S, at the grand lodge con-
vention. They are very high in their
praise of the people of Greenwood
for the magnificent entertainment af-
forded the delegates and visitors to
the convention.
The Bamberg lodge was in the
contest for new members, and while
the local lodge was not awarded one
of the prizes offered, it is said that
Bamberg lodge ranked high in the
contest, which was decided on per-
centage basis. The number Of initia-
tions here was greater than most of
the winning lodges, but on account OF
the present large membership, the
percentage was lower than some OF
the other contestants. The local
lodge now has a membership of be-
tween $50 and 175, with several can
didates awaiting the comforting OF
ranks.

TO START WORK SOON.
Road Through Swamp to
be Complete in December.

J. F. Cleckley, of Cope, was in the
city one day this week. Mr.. Cleckley
will assist in the building of the
Orangeburg portion of the Colum bia-
Savannah highway through the Edisto
river swamp, and he states that prep
arations are being made to start work
On this road construction in the next
few days.
Mr.. Cleckley stated that the work
is expected to be completed by next
December. The contract calls for the
building Of slightly more than one
mile of causeway through the swamp,
and if the weather conditions are fav-
orable during the summer rapid
progress will be made, and it is hoped
to have the work completed before
the winter rains set in next fall.
No further developments are re-
ported concerning the Bamberg por-
tion of the swamp road. Some time
ago CuS County duCuO1iIiOo Iooh AP
the matter Of this road construction
with the state highway department.
Formal application was made by the
local authorities for federal road aid
for this purpose. Some little time is
REQUIRED to complete all details for
such aid, and up to Tuesday nothing
further had been heard from the high
way commission. -
However, it is the intention Of the
local authorities to proceed as soon
as possible with the building of this
road. The contract will be let at the
earliest date, and as Bamberg's por-
tion is not nearly so much as the
Orangeburg portion, it is hoped to
have the contract awarded in time
to have this work completed along
with the Orangeburg stretch. 1t is
also expected that the two counties
will make the necessary arrangements
for the erection of bridge over the
Edisto joining the two roads.

three years Of age, were sitting on the
front steps Of w. J. Cormack's resi-

Richard Detreville on the nose and

The little boy was given the pas
teur treatment, the last of the Fl

to save his life, the point Of infection
being so near the brain that the pas
teur treatment could not check the

Orangeburg Farmers Plow Up Cotton

Orangeburg Farmers Plow Up Cotton.
Orangeburg, May 27.-Farmers in
Orangeburg county have begun ploW-
ing up their cotton on account Of the
large number of boil weevils they
have found in the fields. This prac-
tice is more in evidence in the Nor
gantown section, near Springfield,
and if this practice gains the momen-
tum it now seems probable a large
number of acres are doomed to get
this same treatment. Farm Demon

who are now plowing up their cotton
are replanting their helds mostly IN
