The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1922-01-05

ing those years the great half-opened
countries of the earth will have
stretched out their arms and asked
for the southland's cotton. Think
what the demand will be when the
100000 Russian peasants start
shouting for new cotton shirts and
dresses; think what it will mean
when the 400,OO0,000 coolies of
China demand two blue denim suits
instead of one; think when the 315,-
600, 900 poor of India demand clean
robes instead of loincloths and filthy
garments.
For sixty years we have toiled
and slaved for the world without fair
return; our children have been cheat
ed of their rightful education; our
women have been chained to plows
and fields; our roads have been neg
lected. But that is of the past; the
world must have what we alone can
grow-and the world must pay us a
living wage"
The spell of Manchester and Bir-
mingham (England) over the south
is broken. No longer will Manchest-
er, controlling the cotton surplus OF
the south, dictate the price that is
paid Mr.. Jackson Conscious, at last,
of their real control of their cotton
and aware, for the first time, that
they and not the spectators in Man
chester can have a big part in the
setting of a fair selling price, the
new south, with diversified crops and
a new economic basis, opens it's eyes
to the dawn of new days and new
hopes.
And what is true of the future OF
the south is true of the other sections
Of the country.
The world must have American
food, American raw materials, and
American manufactured goods just
as it must have American cotton
Once the markets of the billion back
ward peoples Of the world are open
ed up and the trade with the 50O,-
100000 of: war shocked Europe re-
vived-once civilization again takes
up it's march forward, new Ameri-
ca will follow the trail of a new
south.

HEN LOSES HER REASON.
Could Not Protect Chicks From Air
plane Hawk

Greenwood, Dec. 29.-Having lost
her heason and deserted her brood
because she could not protect the
little biddies from an airplane which
she thought was a gigantic hawk, an
unfortunate hen in the poultry yards
of Mrs. J. C. Self of this city has
died. ~
The tragedy dates from last
spring, when two commercial flyers
used landing field near the poul-
try yards. They few over the poul-
try every few minutes and each
time they passed the faithful mother
hen rushed to hover the fluffy little
chicks.
But the plane few over so often
that the hen was kept constantly
in a state of terror She clucked
and rufled her feathers and endeav-
ored to look as belligerent as pos
sible each time the huge shadow fell
on the yard. Finally the nervous
strain became too great, and the hen.
bereft of her reason, deserted the
chicks.
..,. was never the same hen again.
She never regained her sanity and
she was beset with illusions OF g1-
eantic haws. running about the
yards in distressed manner, how
ering imaginary chicks. Finally the
hen died in what looked like deli

A Wram Tribute.

A businessman mayor of small
city had been elected, against his own
desires, for his fourth term. Though
he had wanted the chance to give all
his attention to business, he greeted
the announcement committee with as
much cordiality as he could muster.
"I'm mighty sorry, Mr.. Mayor, .
said the chairman, "but they've put
YOU to the trouble Of officiating an
other term. A far worse man would
have. been good enough for US, but
that's just the trouble. We couldn,t
find ,him-and it's my opinion he
amt to be found"

In response to numerous inquiries,
taxpayers are advised that certain
taxes, among them the so-called

cost an extra penny. The tax imposed
by the revenue act of 1921 is on
beverages and the constituent parts
thereof and is paid by the manu-
facturer.
The tax on the transportation OF
freight and passengers is repealed
effective January 1, 1922, also the

$3.50 a square yard; rugs, on the

cess Of s35 each; valises, travelling
