That kind of justice, regardless of contributory causes that made the lawbreaker, would concern itself first with the welfare of the victim or the prospective victims. That kind of jus¬ tice might or might not be good for the lawbreaker immediately involv* ed > but jt would certainly help ma terially to hold down the new crop of lawbreakers that is being bred by misapplied “mercy” - 7 to the present crop. Unless justice is applied in the courts, from the highest to the low¬ est, all the efforts qf the city police and county shriff’s force, go for naught. The trouble is not too few arrests, nor even inadequate evidence, but too few convictions and too in¬ adequate punishment—Knoxville Jour* nal. One Kind of Security In one section of Texas the crop failure this year, due to the long drouth, is even more serious than it is in this section. The story goes that the bankers of a certain county in the stricken area were called upon by civic bodies to help work out a plan whereby the farmers could ob¬ tain money with which to make a crop another year. The bankers, purely as a matter of business, fiAt asked what security could be offered. They were told that the farmers needing the money had nothing to of¬ fer as security; that they barely had money to provide food and clothing for the coming winter months. The bankers insisted on security, and made this proposition: Every farmer who had no automobile, who had done his best this year, who had a reputa¬ tion for honest fair dealing, could got what money he needed to make next year’s crop simply by giving his promissory note, but the fellow who had an automobile, and wanted money, should go back home, jack up all four wheels of his automobile, take them off, bring them to the bank, and with these accessories as security, could get what money he needed to make the next crop. With¬ out the wheels, if he owned a ear, he be flatly refused credit. We must admit that these bankers the Lone Star State have a heart well as plenty of good business Northeast Georgia bankers adopt this plan to good ad¬ Star. METHODIST CHURCH Thos. H.
