Big Class Meeting
AtDenmark Sunday

A great Sunday afternoon mems
meeting was held at Denmark Sun
day under the auspices of the Busi
ness Mems Bible class Of the Den.
mark Baptist church. Several hun
dred men were present at the meet
ing, representing mems Bible classes
from all the denominations of Den
mark, and Baptist classes from
Blackville, Bamberg and other neigh
boring towns.
The meeting was presided over by
S. G. Mayfeld, ESD, teacher of the
Business Mems class. The meeting
was held as a preparatory gathering
in the interest of the revival which
began in the Denmark Baptist church
Monday. Rev. George E. Davis, of
Orangeburg, is doing the preaching
at this revival.
The address of the afternoon was
made by Rev. o. B. Falls, pastor of
the First Baptist church of this city.
His subject was MEMS Attitude To-
ward the Church.. The address was
a masterful one, we'll prepared, and
showed the advantages from a spirit
ual and temporal point of supporting
the church and attending it's services.
A very attractive programme was
carried out, including two quartette
numbers by the Rentz quartette of
Bamberg, and one selection by a
mixed quartette from Denmark. One
of the most inspiring features of the
meeting was a solo by Rev. L. H.
Miller, pastor of the Blackville Bap-
tist church, "Never Give Up. Mr..
Miller has splendid and we'll trained
voice, and his rendering of this Sc
lection held his hearers spellbound.
In addition to these musical selec-
tions, the congregation Joined in the
singing of two familiar hymns. The
welcome address was made by J. Ar
thur Virgins, a member Of the Den
mark Methodist church, and it was
made in Mr.. Wiggins's usual fluent,
ELOQUENT and touching manner. Pray
er was offered by DR.. J. B. Black, OF
Bamberg, and Rev. Mr.. Miller, Qf
Blackville. It was felt by all present
that the meeting was one of inspira-
ton and fine fellowship, and the hope
was expressed by Mr.. Virgins that
such meetings might be held through
out the county at frequent intervals.

Miss Carrie Bamberg
Has Passed Awau

In the death here last Thursday
night of Miss Carrie Bamberg, this
city loses one of it's oldest and most
highly beloved and respected resi-
dents. Miss Bamberg had been in ill
health for several years, and her
death, though greatly deplored, was
not unexpected. She passed away at
her home on West Elm street at nine
o'clock Thursday night.
The funeral and interment took
place Friday afternoon at Restland
cemetery. The funeral services were
conducted by her pastor, Rev. S. o.
Cantey, Of Trinity Methodist church,
in the presence of many relatives and
friends. Many beautiful floral trib-
utes were placed on the mound by
loving hands in remembrance of the
life Of this good woman.
Miss Bamberg was 80 years of age
and life long resident of Bamberg.
She was the daughter of the late
Major Seaborn Bamberg, for whom
the city of Bamberg was named long
years ago. Before i'll health deprived
Miss Bamberg Of physical strength,
she was most ardent worker in To-
cal church circles, and she never lost
her interest and deep concern in the
affairs of her Master For many years
past she has interested herself in the
upkeep of Rest1and cemetery, which
she did without remuneration.
She is survived by only one brother,
Capt. w. S. Bamberg, her other
brothers and sisters having preceded
her to the grave.

Carlisle Opens the
Foot Ball Season

Carlisle's 1922 foot ball season
could hardly be said to have opened
with game; it was slaughter. And
if the season can end in the same
blaze of glory as it started then the
1922 state prep championship should
already be flying at Rhoad park.
The catastrophe happened last Fri
day afternoon with the St. Matthews
high school eleven being the victim
at Rhoad park. But the fracas was
too easy for Carlisle to even get a
line on the skill and. ability of the
local team The final score was 81
to 0, but the periods were materially
shortened, and if the regulation Is
minute quarters had ben played there
is no telling how many points the
military lads could have run up on
their lighter opponents.
The visitors, however, were plucky
and game and not once did they quit
fighting. But their light forwards
were utterly unable to withstand the
dashing runs and fierce plunges Of
the cadets fleet and versatile backs.
Mostly straight foot ball was en-
ployed by both teams, only occasion
ally a forward pass being tried. st.
Matthews made one or two good
gains on exceptional plays, but aside
from these long gains not more than
one first down could be credited to
the losers.
The prep. boys line held like a
stone wall on the defense and on the
offense opened up gaps wide enough
for a Ford to rattle through. The
consequence was six touchdowns for
the victors. All Carlisle back field
men made long dashes up and down
the field. Folk made most of the
scores and Large starred with much
brilliant work. A fair sized crowd
was on hand for the so called game.

was spent in playing games. The lit
tie guest of honor also entertained
her friends by telling them pretty
stories, assisted by Myrl Austin and
others. When tired of play, the little
folk were invited into the dining
room, which was decorated in pink
and white.
A lovely basket was suspended
from the chandelier and from this
were drawn pink and white ribbons
to mark the places of the tiny guests
at the beautifully appointed table,
whose centerpiece was the snow
white birthday cake with its four
pink candles. With the cake pink and
white ices and little baskets of bon
bons were served. The happy chill

The extremely dry weather con-
tinues. There has been little rain
since the first of August. While the
dust is fearful, the dry weather is
not without it's benefits, for it has
permitted the farmers to harvest one
of the finest crops of hay this county
has ever produced. 1t is said there is
probably ample hay in the county to
feed the county's stock during the
next twelve months.

Building and Loan
Stock Has Matured

were made glad last Monday night
and Tuesday morning when they re-
ceived checks covering their shares
in the Citizens Building and Loan
association of this city, for on the
29th of September the stock Of this
association matured to the value of
500 per share. Under the bylaws of
the association the stockholders were
paid their money as soon after ma
turity as the books could be balanced.
The maturity of the stock meant
to the stockholders that during the
past six and a half years or so $780,
600 has been saved up by the men,
bers of the mutual association. A
great many of the shareholders built
or bought their homes by means of
the assistance of the Citizens B. and
L., and it is a source Of great salts
faction to them that now their homes
are free of debt and fully paid for.
This is especially gratifying in view
of the hard times, and it is very likely
that many of them would still have
homes unpaid for were it not for the
fact that they were in the associate
This is not said by way of ADVERTISE
ment, as the association has now
completed it's work and will dissolve
as soon as legal matters permit, but
it is true of all such organizations.
In addition to those building and
buying homes through the associa-
ton, quite a few became members for
the purpose of investment, and to
such perhaps the greatest pleasure
came, for they received checks which
represented real American money -
an article that is scarce during these
strenuous times. Such members feel
amply repaid for their troubles in
meeting the monthly payments dur
ing the seventy-six months they paid
to the association.
The association made a splendid
record, and it is doubtful If this rec
ord has ever been surpassed in this
state. 1t is usual for associations to
require a period of from 7S to S0-odd
months to mature the stock, whereas
only 76 payments were made on the
capital stock of the Citizens associa-
ton, while borrowers paid interest
for a total of 80 months, the last in
terest payments being required to
carry the value of the stock to 500
per share.
Bamberg has had for many years
past one or two building and loan as
sociations, two most of the time, and
the town still has two associations.
The Home Building and Loan associa-
ton was organized about two and a
half years ago with around 1000
shares of stock On Sept. 20 the Sec
retary of state chartered the Edisto
Building and Loan association, which
is now a going concern capitalized at
800 shares, although not all of the
shares have as yet been placed.
These associations are great as
set to the town, and it has been often
remarked that more people of modest
means in Bamberg own their own
homes than in most towns. This fact
is no doubt due to the fact that Bam-
berg has always literally supported
these local organizations.
