Battle Creek. - Famed Neﬁm Barbecue - Cook, Fisherman and ~ Outdoorsman Is Dead —_— l Jim Jackson, 53, Negro, died ‘after a stroke at 1:30 Friday ~morning. at his home, 150 Warsaw street, . Probably not one out of ten peo {ple in Athens will recognize the ' name Jim Jackson, but when they ‘read that Jim Jackson and ¢'Jin iSwingex‘" were one and the same, it will strike a note of sorrow in ithe hearts of many. ' As Jim Jackson his activities were known to few, outside of his home and neighborhood, but as Jim Swinger he was Kknown to - hundreds as one of the best barbe cue cooks in the south. i And there are scores of Athens men, who, when they read this, [wm remember other days and camping trips on which Jim was chief-cook-and-bottle-washer and general handy man around the camp. There is hardly an outdoor sportsman in Athens who has not been rabbit hunting, fishing, sein ing or camping with Jim Swinger at some time or other. Jim was truly a Black Night of the Great Outdoors and during the yvears he has been tramping and hunting and fishing since he was a boy, he made hundreds of white friends who were loyal to him to the end. Jim leaves a wife and six chil dren in his immediate family, as well as brothers and sisters. No fureral arrangements have been announced yet by People’s Under tal:ing Parlor, handling the funer al. It is more than likely that quite a large number of white recple will attend services for Jim, or, in other ways manifest their friendship. Miss Mary Mims Featured Speaker Today as Programi . .

Improve Community She wants blue ribbons put on the members of a community who strive to improve that community, as well as on the prize-winning hogs, cows and dresses at the com munity fair. Miss Mimsg addressed a general assembly for approximately 1,500 farmers, farm women and 4-H club boys and girls who are attendingl the University of Georgia’s annual | Farm and Home week. | At an agricultural a.djustment‘ and farm prices conference, Dr. L.’ H. Bean, of the Agricultura] Ad- | justment administration, s a i d| there should be a balance between | volume and price, so as to give| farmers a fair share of the nation-! al income and a rising standard of living. ‘ Benefit payments, under the AAA, are the only means of ac complishing this now, he added, Credit Available Henry 8. Johnson, director of in formation, Farm Credit Ad-mlnis-i tran of Columbia, said that “Farm | credit is now available, and the wise farmer will seize the oppor tunity to secure a rate of interest and a maturity which will bring his annual payments in line with the normal earning power of his property.” B “The Farm Credit administra tion is mot designed to monopolze but only to supplement and stab ilize farm credit,” Johnson contin ued. “It does not operate on funds from the TUnited States treasury but merely provides the machinery whereby farmers may cooperate in securing loan funds from the sale of bonds and debentures to the in vesting public at a rate of interest comparable with that borne by commercial paper. “The attitude of borrowers to wards their debts will in the longl run determine the rate of interest borrowers must pay for their money. It is therefore a matter of intelligent -selfishness for a farm er not only to keep his own loan in current condition but also see that his brother farmer is diligent in the payment of his debts. “Only through such collective responsibility as is provided in the Farm Credit administration can American farmers continue to ex ert a stabilizing influence on farm/ credit.” - Being Stabilized ; Johnson added that farm credit is being stabilized as evidenced by the fact that insurance companies are coming back into the farm mortgage field and commercial banks are again interested in short term production credit loans. University College of Agricul ture and Extension service staff members reviewed details of agri cultural adjustment for the farm ers. Farm and Home week will be ended tomorrow morning. Official: today expressed delight with the way it has turned out this year. ——— e ———. 1 MONEY AVAILABLE WASHINGTON — P Th e president’s signature to the defi ciency appropriations ill has made $2,000,000 available for the Pensa. cola naval air station and $1,185,000 for the Bay Pines veterans hospital at St. Petersburgh, Fla., while ano ther $150,000 went to the Lake City veterang hospital. : Eases Headache In 3 Minutes also neuralgia, muscular aches and pains, toothache, earache periodical and other pains due |to inorganic causes. ¥No nare lcotice. 10c and 25¢ packages.
