A MESSAGE FROM
The WINDER NEWS
This is a message to our subscrib
ers. We know it is fair and that
everyone that takes the News will
agree with us in the statements we
make.
On aeeount of the stringency in
money matters, we have not press
ed our subscribers for payment thru
the summer months. By the clos
est economy we have managed to
pull through so far, yet we are go
ing to need every dollar due us ear
ly in the fall.
We are expecting you to pay us
just as soon as you begin to sell
your cotton. We have given you a
good, readable paper, and we feel
sure you appreciate our efforts and
that you will be willing at the Hrst
opportunity to show your apprecia
tion by sparing us the small amount
you owe the paper.. The amount is
not large to anyone, but these small
amounts put together mean a great
deal to us.
The label on your paper shows the
date to which you are paid. If
te date opposite your name reads
21apr21, it means that your sub
scription expired on April 21, 1921,
and that you are due us for the pa
per from that date. There is not a
family in the county but what is
e to take their county paper. It
costs about 3 cents a copy, and we
believe everyone in the county feels
that it is worth this small sum to
< able to keep up wit the happen
ings of this county and section.
We are expecting you to help us
and to help us early. We need it.
The first time you lire in town come
around and see us and let’s talk over
the matter. We want to give you a
good paper but we cannot do so un
less we can collect the subscriptions
due us.

The Banker’s
Chief Obligation
JHE BANKER’S first obligation is to safe
guard the funds in his custody, and keep
himself in position to meet all demands for
their return. Every other claim upon him is
subordinate to this. The banking business
would disappear if this requirement were
not strictly observed. It is not enough that a
loan shall be “good” in the sense that there
is ample security to guarantee its payment
sometime; it must be collectible when due,
if the banker is to be secure in his own posi
tion. He must be able to arrange the maturi
ties of his bills so that his outstanding funds
will be always returning to him in a steady
flow, and that he may continually re-dispose
of them to meet the changing needs of his
customers. The funds which one patron bor
rows in the spring may represent the surplus
which another patron has at that time, and
by fall the latter will not only want all of his
own funds but claim the privilege of being a
borrower in his turn.
Asa bank derives its lending power from
the community in which it is located, serving
only as manager of the funds given in
to its custody, it is evident that any change in
business conditions that affects the amount
of liquid wealth in the community will quick
ly affect the lending power of the bank.
A bank of itself does not create wealth. It
is not an industry; it does not carry on pro
duction, and it cannot of itself supply wealth
to the community. It is a receptacle, a reser
voir of the floating, liquid wealth of the com
munity. Its function is to aid production
and trade by making this floating wealth
more available and more useful than it could
be without being gathered together. It is an
agency for the more efficient use and hand
ling of the community’s wealth, but not for
making wealth by any magical method, such
as the printing press affords, or by creating
deposits! through loans. It is important to
keep this in mind, because when people be
gin to complain that the banks or the gov
ernment should make it easy to obtain cred
it, it is time to utter a warning.
Sound banking requires that somebody
shall put a dollar of wealth into a bank for
every dollar that the bank loans out, and
when we speak of wealth we include the pa
per representatives of the liquid wealth
which is moving in trade.
1 The wheat, meats, cotton, lumber, coal,
and merchandise of all kinds that are being
transferred are creating and depleting bank
deposits as they move. It is through them
that pools of deposits, or lending power, are
created. When prices rise the deposits are in
creased and as prices fall they are decreas
ed. These funds are the basis of the banking
business.
