THURSDAY, AUGUST 11, 1921. 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.

PEA WEEVIL IS CAUSING DAMAGE Many complaints are coming in con cerning the damage being done the pea crop by a weevil that is sucking the bloom and causing them to fall off t is feared that this pest will material ly lessen the pea crop in this section of the country. 1899 1921 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. Yours to serve, WINDER NATIONAL BANK RESERVE^ 1 1899 1 1921 SUBSCRIPTION: *1.50 A YEAR
