RENEW YOUR SUBSCRIPTION N O W! FARMERS, ATTENTION — WHO ARE THESE COTTON VULTURES OPTIMISTIC AMERICA This Is Renewal Month All items discontinued this month will begin with September paper RENEW NOW! he American people are optimistic. Nothing ever appears to cause them serious alarm or concern. They can’t see the dark side iof anything. The sun hlways shines for them. The long, dry summer, costing hun dreds of millions of dollars in stunted crops, causes some disappointment, but no lamentations. The farmer just makes the best of it and sails right along on his course, firm in the con- \ iction that what he loses this sum mer he will make up at another time. The business world, at the low ebb of a long perioid of depression, never loses its head or makes any serious complaint. Diminished sales and dis appearing profits cannot cause it to lose its supreme faith in the future. It builds in advertisty today for suc cess in prosperity tomorrow. It is so in every walk of American life, in every sphere of American oc cupation. It is the American spirit, which never admits defeat—which sees only future victory in the midst of present adver sity. This town is a fair sample of the hundreds of thousands that dot the land of free America. We recognize conditions as they exist, and adapt ourselves to them without wasting val uable time in bemoaning our misfor tunes. But we have no intention of remain ing in this state of temporary depres sion. We know that a change is on the way, and that with a little patience we will welcome its arrivaL The American spirit of optimism is the one that wins most in the end. THAT WOUL DEVOUR YOU. Is it not a fact that you have alw'ays dealt with cotton and are you not the best judge in relation to dealing with matters that involve your whole life’s pursuit, and are you willing and ready to forsake the plans and prac tices of your fathers and forefathers, that without even an investigation you would be willing to turn away from ways that have been successfully built and maintained homes, communities, towns and cities and be led like a bull with a ring in his nose to an unknown, uncertain destiny at the will and call of any organization that would so own and control your product for the term of life of contract agreed upon? The writer feels certain that he knows what you would live on. What would these promoters live on? When you can answer that ques tion, you will know who the “Vul tures Are.” Better consult with your tried and true friends. Congressman Wise.

I know how, I felt," said the employer. “So do we,” chirped the employee. No more was said. When fools begin to argue wise men keep their mouths shut. The good do not always die young.
