Sunday School attendance al

TO go a little stronger next Sunday
and put Is little beyohd that

Another splendid sermon was
preached by Rev Ferguson in the
morning 20 a large crowd.
He was in top notch condition

known to the people Of West Texas.

David Bart. Jordan
Died Last Saturday

Sunday afternoon the remains of
David Bartlette Jordan, form
er resident of Bamberg, were
inferred at Southend cemetery,
this city, in the presence of
an unusually large number of friends
and relatives. Mr.. Jordan died at 3
o'clock Saturday morning at the
home of his sister, Mrs. J. l..
Smoak, at Denmark, following an ILL
ness of several months, five weeks of
which he was confined to his bed.
The funeral services were conduct
ed at the grave by Rev. o. J. Frier,
of the Denmark Baptist church, af-
ter which the ceremonies were turned
over to Bamberg lodge No. SO,
knights of Pythias, which conferred
Pythian honors upon the remains of
the departed brother. There were
about Is Pythians Of the local lodge
present to pay their last respects to
the deceased member, in addition to
many others from Denmark and Ehr-
hardt.
Mr.. Jordan was thirty-three years
of age. He was born and rear
ed near Bamberg, and for many
years was connected with the local
electric light and power plant as
workman and later as superintend-
ent for some time. He resigned his
local position to become superintend-
ent of the Ehrhardt electric and pow
er plant, a position he held until a
few months before his death. Since
that time he has been in very poor
health and made his home with his
sister, who is his only surviving near
relative, his mother having died sew
en- months ago.
Mr.. Jordan was young man OF
excellent character. He was modest
by nature, but hard worker, and he
held the high esteem of his friends
and acquaintances. He belonged to
a number of fraternal orders, includ-
ing the Knights of Pythias, Masons,
Woodmen of the World, and Odd Eel
lows
The verdict of his many friends is
that Bart Jordan was a man of his
word, of high character, with a
splendid prospect for a successful
career. AS silent tribute to the
memory of this exemplary young man,
the grave was covered with mass of
most beautiful flowers. t

Cooperative Selling
of the Cotton Crop

Cooperative marketing of farm
products is now coming to the front
and business interests are recogniz-
ing the business-like principles which
the marketing associations are based
upon. Evidence of the fact is found
in the ability of this class of organ
ization to borrow money. We now
have three such organizations in ex-
istence in Bamberg county. The lat
est one to be formed is the Bamberg
county branch of the South Carolina
Cotton Growers Cooperative Associa-
ton. ]. B. Guess, Sr., of Den
mark is the county chairman and
J. F. Lane, of Bamberg has accepted
the campaign managership.
County Agent Brandon with the
assistance of others, has just COM
pleted a series of meetings in the
county in the interest of the co-opera-
tive marketing of farm products and
sixteen farmers joined the associa-
ton, totalling up 1927 bales as o.
the 1920 crop of cotton. From the
present until the 1st of May the sign
ing of crop contracts will be manag-
ed by Mr.. Lane with the assistance Of
others and 100 per cent. sign up IS
the goal set.
The cotton marketing movement
is a popular one all over the south,
six cotton states have signed over
two million bales; and over in the
Pee Dee section of this state, where
the movement was first started, Dar-
lington county has signed over IT,
900 bales; Marlboro has signed 49,
900 bales; Sumter has signed 5000
and Dillon is close behind with 5000.
There must be something behind the
movement Judging from these fig
ures.
If you have never had the system
of cooperative marketing explained
to you ask for a conference with your
county agent, campaign manager, or
some of the members of the associa-
tion.
A list of the names of those sign
ing the crop contract is given for
your convenience and information:

Reu. O. 3. Falls
Accepts Passionate

At a conference of the members OF
| the Bamberg Baptist church Sunday
morning, the acceptance of the call
| to the pastorate of the church was
read from Rev. o. B. Falls, of Marion.
A call was extended to Mr.. Falls
on the preceding Sunday night by a
unanimous vote of the members OF
the church present, and the call was
officially confirmed by the regular
conference the past Sunday.
The Baptist congregation and many
others who heard Mr.. Falls preach
two sermons here recently are de-
lighted with the acceptance of the
Marion pastor. He preached here
with great force, and his attractive
personality has already attracted
many warm friends in Bamberg.
Mr.. Falls has been pastor at Marion
a little more than one year. He is a
native Virginian, and has filled pas
torates for several years in Texas
and Florida before coming to South
Carolina. He was married in Balti-
more several years ago to charm
ing young Canadian woman.
The current issue of the Baptist
Courier, the official organ of the Bap-
lists in South Carolina, contains the
following interesting review of Mr..
Falls first years work in Marion:

New Union Station
Ordered for Denmark

The Bamberg delegation has caus-
ed to be introduced and passed an act
in the legislature instructing the
Southern and Seaboard railroads to
erect within the next few months
new union station in the town of
Denmark. The act has been approved
by the governor and is now law.
The citizens of Denmark have been
endeavoring to secure new union
station for many years past, being
met with obstacles on every hand.
During the world war the matter was
brought up before former railroad
commission; a sympathetic hearing
was given the people. and the rail-
roads, and an agreement was said to
have been entered into whereby the
station was to be built after the ces-
sation of European hostilities. How
ever, after that America was drawn
into the affray, and another delay was
caused by mutual consent, with the
expectation that the station would be
erected in the course of few months
after the war was over.
No action to this end was taken
by the railroads, in keeping, it is said,
with their agreement with the COM
mission and the town, and it was
again put before the railroad COM
mission, then composed of different
personnel from the one that held the
first hearing. This time, the propo-
osition did not meet with the ap-
parent sympathy of the commission,
and nothing was done.
Inasmuch asDenmark is an import
ant railroad junction, the matter was
presented to the legislative delega-
ton with the request for some sort of
action. The act just approved is the
result of this effort, and it is ex-
pected that the station will be built
forthwith.

Moratorium of 7wo
Weeks by Offenders

Business is slack in the city court
these days. Monday morning Mayor
Thomas held court for the first time in
two weeks, and then had only two
cases of minor Importance before
him, collecting fines totaling $500.
The mayor says that when it rains
it pours, making use of popular
phrase, in police circles. During the
two weeks just passed city offenders
literally and actually declared a mora
torium, and no arrests were made
during this period.
In one of the cases Monday morn
ing, the defendant was heard using
language not calculated to be heard
in respecta BILE society; however, there
being no hearers about, the officer ad-
monished him to cut it out and move
on. This was followed by 'T'll ex-
cuse you. chief" and the admonition
was given more forcefully. He then
walked off and told his companion
that "The - policeman knock
- out Of me-" and the officer pull
him. $40 or 20 days.
