Death of Little Girl.

Little Bessie Clyo Carter, infant
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. J. c. Car
ter, passed away last Saturday morn
ing at their home in Columbia after
being i'll for about month. The
little girl was just 13 months old,
being born in Bamberg only a short
while before her parents moved from
here a little less than a year ago, up
I'D to which time her father had been
a valued employee of the Santee
Mills here.
Little Bessie was a particularly
bright child, though but year old,
and her death cast a distinct shadow
of gloom over the friends of the
family here who deeply sympathize
with those bereaved. The remains
were laid to rest in Southend ceme-
try in this city Sunday afternoon.

Bamberg Girls Add
Another Victoru

The Bamberg high school girls
basket ball team tackled on another
victim to its already long and un-
broken string last Saturday. This
time it was the North Augusta girls
who fell before their prowess and
tumbled to an ignominous defeat.
the score was 81 to Z, and the differ
ence fairly indicates the relative
strength of the two teams. The game
was played in North Augusta, our
girls rturning home on the evening
train Saturday. Although on the
enemy's battle ground, each Bamberg
girl covered herself with glory, and
Capt. nellie Beard, the teams main
stay, in spite of the record of her
brilliant past, never played a greater
game in her life.
The girls were accorded splendid
hospitality, and have none but the
highest praise for North Augusta 8

threatment which they received

LARGER DENMARK PLANT.
Fifty-five Tons of Ice Now to be
Made Daily by Edisto Company.

Denmark, Feb. 16.-The Edisto
Public Service company is now hav-
ing new machinery installed in the
plant, which will increase the ice
making capacity Is tons per day. The
new ammonia compressor connected
to the steam engine and $50 horse
power boiler have already been in
stalled and are now ready to oper-
ate. The workmen are now erecting
the new freezing tank. When this
addition to the ice plant is complet-
ed it will have a total capacity Of SIS
tons of ice per day. This plant has
been gradually increasing it's capaci-
ty from year to year until it is now
one of the largest ice plants in this
part of the state. This plant sup
plies ice to most of the surrounding
towns and due to the fact that the
town, has three railroads here this
plant has a great number of small
towns in all directions that it can
serve.
The Edisto Public Service company
also operates the light and power
plant and they have about closed
contracts with two nearby towns to
furnish them light and power.

s-YEAR-OLD DIES OF BURNS.
Clothing Catches Fire When Youths
Dress Before Open Fireplace.

Emanuel Poliakoff,' eight year old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Solomon Polia-
koff. died in the University hospital
at 1920 o'clock yesterday afternoon
as a result of burns sustained yes
terday morning when Emanuel and
his three year old brother Matthew
were dressing in front of an open
fireplace in their home at 1106 Rey-
nolds street.
It is thought that the flames from
the open fireplace caught the night
clothes of the older boy and that
the small brothers clothes caught
while he was attempting to extin-
guish the flames on the older child.
Their screams attracted the atten-
tions of other members of the fami-
" who rushed to their assistance,
and extinguished the flames which
were enveloting both children.
They were rushed to the Universi-
ty hospital where everything posi-
BILE was done to save the life of both,
but all efforts on the part of the
physicians failed and the child died
within six hours after his arrival at
the institution. Matthews con-
dition was painful but not serious
and he was removed to his home
Yesterday evening.
The funeral of Emanuel will take
place from the home Of his par
ents this afternoon at o'clock and
interment will follow. in the City
cemetery. R. E. Elliott and Sons
are in charge.-Augusta Chronicle,

of Pythias
Hear Fine Addresses

A most interesting convention of
Bamberg lodge No. 90 knights OF
Pythias was held on Monday evening.
The occasion was the regular meet
ing of the lodge, and was also the
5Sth anniversary of the founding Of
the order, the anniversary date fall
ing on Sunday, the 18th.
While no special programme had
been arranged for the evening, two
loyal Pythians, B. D. Carter, Esq,
and Rev. S. o. Cantey, had been in
vited to address the lodge These
addresses were full of the spirit of
Pythianism and were inspiring to
the ,goodly number of knights pres
ent at the meeting. Both spoke of
the fratenral principles of the order
and of their practical application to
the daily lives of the members.
AT the conclusion of these address
es, short talks were made extern
poraneously by several members, in
cluding Knights D. ]. Delk, Capt.
NJ. w. Lever and C. w. Rentz, Jr.
The meeting was very greatly en-
joyed, and it was felt that get-to-
gether meetings of this character
are of a most beneficial nature to the
lodge mem bership.

Presbyterian Pastor
Resigns Passionate

Bamberg people generally of all
denominations will exceedingly re-
gret to learn of the resignation of the
Rev. Phillip Mickle, the beloved pas
tor of the local Presbyterian church
and also of the Denmark church. Mr..
Mickle has been supplying these two
churches for more than year, al
ternating between each place is to
the morning and evening services
each Sunday. During considerable
portion of last year he and his es-
teemed wife made their home among
US here in Bamberg and endeared
themselves to the hearts of all, and
it had been fervently hoped that soon
they would be full fedged Bamberg
citizens.
However, Mr.. Mickle is soon to
complete his work as a ministerial
student in the Presbyterian theologi-
cal seminary at Columbia, and in an
nouncing his resignation to mis- con-
,gregation Sunday he gave as his rea-
son that he feared he was attempting
to carry on too much work and that
under such circumstances he felt that
surely some of it, either his pastoral
work here and in Denmark or his
work in Columbia must necessarily
suffer and therefore it was his duty
to resign.
The resignation was reluctantly ac-
cepted to take effect Immediately, and
next Sunday morning will conclude
his pastoral duties at Denmark
While his last sermon to his Bamberg
con gregation will be preached that
night. Mr.. Mickle in his short period
here has done splendid work in build
ing up and maintaining his church,
and while his resignation came as a
complete surprise, the officers, never
theless, realizing the lofty motives
which prompted his action, were
forced to bow to his wishes.
Mr.. Mickle is young man or
sterling ability and earnestness OF
purpose with brilliant future in
store for him in his chosen field of
Cody work, and all Bamberg bids
him Godspeed wherever he may be
called. The work in the local Pres
byterian churches will not be dropped
but it is expected that the pulpit will
be filed regularly just as heretofore.
However, it is not possible just yet
to state definitely what preacher will
be sent to this charge.

Support the Churches.

In a timely editorial last week,
The Bamberg Herald quotes DR..
John E. White as saying that Dusl-
ness men will support their Chamber
of Commerce, Lodge or other organ
ization but quite often give no sup
port or little to the local church. We
think this is true Of every section
and is especially noticeable during
hard times. And yet no organlza-
ton means as much to the community
as the church. Without it's churches,
Williston would be very poor
place in which to live and unsafe
place in which to rear our families.
Just as the churches of Williston are
it's biggest assets, Rosemary, Calvary
and the other churches are the or
ganizations that call for the most
loyal support of the people of those
sections. And this does not refer to
money alone. No pastor wants
simply a contributing member. The
Williston Way is not specially strong
on certain Sundays being set apart
as DAYS when everyone should go to
church for we believe that everyone
should go to church every Sunday
unless some good reason keeps them

Lyceum Course.

The lyceum course at Carlisle
School has been unusually good this
year. No expense has been spared in
trying to obtain the very best num-
bers. There are two more attrac-
tions to be given, The Chicago Lad
les Sextette scheduled for March End
and the Elsie Illingsworth Co. sched-
uled for March 18th.
"The Chicago Ladies Sextette Of
fers most unique, original and de-
lightful programme. > In varied COM
binations of violin, cello, string, bass
and piano, these gifted young ladies
play their way into the hearts of
their audience-and lose no time in
doing so. They have what might be
called a Personality Programme
for they certainly are Personality
Girls'-every mothers daughter Of
them"
This company comes to us highly
recommended and we feel sure that
you will enjoy their orchestral work,
their solos, their vocal com binations;
and their readings and impersonation
work. If you miss this attraction
you will be mirsing something really
worth while. Remember the date
Thursday, March End, and be sure to
come out and bring the family.
The attraction scheduled for
March 18th, the Elsie Illingsworth
Company is supposed to be one of
the best the Bureau has to offer. This
company is one of England's finest
popular musical organizations. This
is the first American tour to be made
by Miss Illingsworth and her talent
edsassistants. This company delight
ed thousands of doughboys in France.
The company spent twelve months i'm
an active tour of the various fronts
and later went into Germany for an
additional six months.
We have always striven to give to
Bamberg first class lyceum course
regardless of expense and have very
often as result had to make up a
considerable amount from the treas
ury of the school. If these last two
numbers do not receive the support
of the town that they apparently de-
serve We will not be in position to
sign contract next year. If you
want a lyceum course next year come
out to these last two attractions

Unbeatable Jimmy.

The Allendale paper announces
that J. Miles Riley, of Hampton coun-
ty, has "about decided" to oppose J.
F. Byrnes for congress from the End
district. It is out of our district and
none of our rat killing but, somehow,
we have formed a rather high opin-
ion of that young fellow Byrnes as a
congressman. He makes the i'm
preston of being keen witted, alert,
active, efficient and unafraid. In a
rough and tumble fight with the Re
publicans ne is never at disadVant-
age. For a young man he was rath-
er too personal with Uncle Joe"
Fordney but the old man was whip
ped, lost his temper, and became very
exasperating. The chances are that
Byrnes will be hard to beat.-Cal-

Where East and West Meet.

Where East ana west MeeC.
Please remember that Koggei and
Kekko are two different Japanese
words and should not be mixed, one
meaning ridiculous and the other
splendid.
A European professor in the 1mpe-
rial university of Tokyo though proud
of his linguistic attainments, did not
fully appreciate the importance Of
the difference between the two words
until one day when he had occasion
to go to felicitate a Japanese col
league of his on the arrival of new
baby The European scholar spoke
in fluent Japanese something to this
effect: "I hear, sir, your wife has a
new son. How ridiculous!'

MUSIC CLUB STAGES OPERA.
Cinderella Very Creditably Present
ed Friday Evening.

The light opera Cinderella was
very credita bly, presented at the Car
Isle auditorium Friday evening by a
local cast. The play was primarily
gotten up by the Apollo Music club
and was entirely musical and highly
entertaining, the best possible local
talent being offered and every one
acquitting himself or herself admira-
bly,. The costumes were exquisite,
the scenery artistically arranged and
all in all Cinderella was very pref
ty extravaganza. Quite a few out
of town folks were in the audience.
The role of leading lady, Cinder-
ella herself, was played by Miss Wis
ia Brabham, charming and vivacious,
while that of the prince, her wooer
and winner, was we'll taken care of
by Paul Whitaker. Other leading
parts were excellently handled by
John C. Lanham, LaVerne Thomas,
H. N. Folk, R. G. Stokes and H. l..
Rentz, representing the male talent,
ard Mesdames S. A. Merchant, Geo.
S. Smith, J. J. Heard, L. c. Smoak,
Annie Black and E. H. Henderson,
for the ladies. Some thirty or, forty
other Bamberg people acted in mi
nor roles, but their parts were i'm
portant to the beauty of the play and
were acted and carried out unusually
we'll.
Between the two acts little Misses
Elizabeth Gilchrist and Mary Aldrich
Wyman, two attractive lassies, rem
dered an exhibition of dancing which
highly delighted the big audience and
added much pleasure to the occasion.
