OLD CITADEL ENDS CAREER.
New Quarters Have Been Provided al
Cost of More Than q Million.

Charleston, May 3.-Charleston' S
historic Citadel, which produced
many of the heroes of the Confeder-
ate war, is about to be abandoned as
a military school. The city and the
state have provided new quarters for
the college at cost Of more than
s1,0O0,o00.
About the buildings which have
become known as The Citadel, much
history has been wrought. The main
building was used prior to 1880 as
tobacco inspection warehouse, and
into it rolled great hogsheads drawn
by mule, horse and OK from interior
farms. Upper stories were added
from time to time until today the
building is a stalwart structure four
stories nigh with accommodations for
325 cadets.
After services as tobacco inspec-
ton warehouse the Citadel was used
for guards who partrolled the city s
magazines on the outskirts of Char
lesion, and it was during this period
that the name Citadel came into COM
mon use in describing the building.
The guards were called Citadel
guards.
In 1912 the state decided to con-
vert the Citadel into a military col
lege, and on December 20, Of that
year, the South Carolina Military
college had it's genesis, the "Arsenal''
then at Columbia being used as a
preparatory school.
With the outbreak Of the Con-
federate war Citadel cadets Joined
the Confederate army, and some OF
the south's most famous soldiers de-
veloped from among them. Citadel
men are said to have fired the first
shot of the war when the steamer
Star of the West endeavored to bring
supplies to beleaguered Fort Sumter.
A piece of wood from the Star of the
Vests hull was fashioned into a
star, and for upwards Of 80 years a
replica has adorned a gold medal
awarded at the school for efficiency
at drill.
The Citadel was occupied by feder-
al troops during reconstruction days,
but was returned to the state and re-
opened as a military college in 1882.
It is located on Marion square in the
heart of the city.

Bamberg Has an UnexceNed
Ground Floor Opportunity

J. F. Lane, tobacco warehouse man
ager for the Cooperative Tobacco
Marketing association, has been as
sured by the officers of the association
that they consider Bamberg the logl-
cal distributing point for the entire
southern section of the state. This
includes all of the counties below
Sumter and Kingstree, embracing
fifteen or twenty counties that are
now planting more or less tobacco
and which will doubtless develop the
industry much more in future years.
There is no doubt of the fact that
some town in this portion of the state
will become the central marketing
point for all these counties. Bamberg
ought to be that point and will be II
the proper enthusiasm is put behind
the. movement. A chamber of COM
merce will perform great part in
putting Bamberg on the tobacco map.
Truck is the newest industry of
this county and section of the state.
There are great possibilities in this
Industry, and Bamberg can easily be-
come the distributing point for truck
ers of large territory. Some organ
ization is needed to push this end OF
the business.
Then there is the matter of secur-
ing new industries of all kinds. The
Herald knows of one or two enter
prises that could probably have been
located in Bamberg if it had been
somebody's business to have interest
ed the parties in this section.
It is also fact that nearly every
town in the state has an organlza-
ton of this kind and the advantages
of other places are being placed be-
fore investors. Bamberg is the best
town between Augusta and Charles
ton, but not everybody knows it. We
know it, and should tell folks about
it. But everybody's business is no.
body's business.

$500 Per Year in Advance.

Friday night at $50 at the town
hall in Bamberg a most important
meeting is to be held, the purpose OF
which is to start movement for the
organization of a chamber of COM
merce in this town. The meeting is
called by J. Frank Folk with the CO.
operation Of a number of other citl-
zens. A book has been placed at
Mack's Drug Store for the purpose OF
registering the names of all parties
Interested in the matter Of organizing
q chamber of commerce, and all such
citizens are asked to place their
names thereon, and then attend the
meeting Friday night.
; This meeting is called because OF
the unexcelled opportunity Bamberg
has right at this present time. There
are many opportunities that exist, but
which require the services OF some
goed boosters to put them across.
It Is fully realized that the boil
weevil is here to stay, and that this
county has no reasonable excuse for
believing that we will ever enjoy
much profit from the cotton crop
again. It is therefore necessary that
this entire section of the state must
branch out into some other fields. The
TACT that our principal source OF reve-
nue has gone demands that something
must be done to keep Bamherg in her
fightful place in industrial and COM
mercial lines.
Bamberg has the opportunity, for
one thing, of becoming the central
tobacco market Of southern Carolina.
If all interested persons will refer to
i map of South Carolina, they will
note that the nearest tobacco market
tosBamberg is located at Sumter, with
Kingstree about the same distance.
Fhe market that once existed at Sum-
meryine has been discontinued, and
,this tobacco should come to Bamberg.

According to estimates of B. b.
Hare, agricultural statistician in
South Carolina for the bureau OF
markets and crop estimates, U. S.
department Of agriculture, the total
value of the 13 leading crops in the
state last year amounted to s123,-
937,552, which means that if all the
crops had been sold and converted
into money there would have been
an average cash income Of s643 per
farm, the estimates being based on
number of farms in the state as re-
ported by the census of 1920. The
average value of these crops per
plow is estimated at 1852. The crops
considered are as follows: Cotton,

LADIES'! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Use Crandma's Sage Tea and
Sulphur Recipe and Nobody
will Know.

The use OF Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grGndmothers' time.
She used ii to keep her hair beautifully
dark, CLASSY and attractive. Whenever
her hair took on that duh, faded or
streaked appearance, this simple mixture
was applied with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home Is mussy and
out Of date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for bottle II "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you will
get this famous old preparation, i'm
proved by the addition of other ingre-
dents, which can be depended upon to
restore natural color and beauty to the
hair.
A welI-known downtown druggist says
It darkens tho hair so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell 1t has been
applied. You simply dampen a sponge
or soft brush with 1t and draw this
through your hair, taking one strand at a
time BY morning the gray ha4r dis
appears, and after another application or
two, 1t becomes beautifully dark and
glossy Advertisement.

N.Y.CONTRACTOR
WOULD INITIATE
HOME BUILDING
Suggests Plan to Relieve De-
pressed Business Con-
ditions.

Two birds can be killed with one
stone If contractors and builders will i'm
mediately start q general campaign OF
home building" Richard Swinburne, one
of the largest construction men in New
York City, advises contractors, builders,
and building trades unions, IN e COM
munication received by the Marion
County Building Trades Council. His
statement continues in this manner;
by a comprehensive program of home
building the housing problem, which has
troubled the Nation for several years,
could be solved and likewise the increase
IN industry caused by the building would
tend to alleviate the conditions Of nnem-
ployment.
There can be no doubt-and figures
have been compiled to prove it-that a
large number Of houses are necessary
throughout the country. There is scarce
Iy city, town or hamlet which has not
suffered from the lack Of proper housing
facilities. This lack has caused consider
able unrest 1t has, By keeping the cost
Of rentals up, aided IN maintaining the
high cost Of living. These things are not
good for the people and are not good for
the country. The only logical way to
relieve the situation is by building.
"If We build homes, we will necessarily
increase the number of men and women
employed. There is perhaps greater un-
employment in the various building crafts
than in any other business. 1t is highly
desirable that this unemployment be al
leviated If contractors and builders
generally entered into the spirit Of q home
building campaign, there Is no telling
the number of persons they could employ
and employ at good wages. Thus, by
such a building campaign we solve two
problems-the housing problem and the
unemployment problem. And they are
two questions of such great national I'M
portance that 1t is to the interest Of the
whole country to solve them tmme-
diately."

IF SKIN BREAKS
OUT AND ITCHES
APPLY SULPHUR

Just the moment you apply Mentho-
Sulphur to an itching, burning or
broken out skin, the itching stops and
healing begins, says a noted skin special
ist. This sulphur preparation, made into
a pleasant cold cream, gives such quick
relief, even to fiery eczema, that moth
ing has ever been found to take its place
Because Of its germ destroying prop
critics, it quickly subdues the itching,
cools the irritation and heals the eczema
right up, leaving a clear, smooth skin in
place of ugly eruptions, rash, pimples or
roughness.
You do not have wait for improvement.
It quickly shows. You can get a little
jar Of Mentho-Sulphur at any drug
