W. H. Faust Returns
From Fine Meeting.
Rpy. W. H. Faust returned Friday
from a fine meeting at Cloud s < reek
church in Oglethorpe county.
r>s new members were added to the
church roll.
Mr. Arthur Henry of Athens led the
singing. The crowds were the largest
in the history of the church.
In Earlier Days
In former times, when the town butcher or
farmer himself dressed and cured the meat for
the community, he could not always tell how
it would turn out.
His methods were crude; partly traditional,
partly guesswork. His tests were few and
inconclusive.
Meat packing of today, as carried on by
Swift & Company, has changed all that. It is
scientific. Nothing is left to chance; nothing
taken for granted.
The most painstaking care and attention
are given to every step. Processes are worked
out on a large scale with minute exactness.
Methods are continuallj' revised and improved.
Cleanliness is insisted upon. Drastic, incessant
inspections are the order of the day.
Swift products are uniform, graded accord
ing to quality.
Take bacon, for instance.
Swift & Company set out years
ago to make a delicious, savory bacon
which should be uniformly excellent.
The result is c\

IN MEMORY OF LITTLE DANNY
SMITH WHO WENT AWAY ON
JULY TWENTY EIGHTH, 1921,
I.ittle Danny, bright-eyed darling,
Treasure loaned by Heaven above;
Come to lie like a blessed angel,
Filling hearts with joy and love.
Like a cheerful sunbeam shedding,
Light and gladness on her way,
Ever joyous, laughter loving,
Turning darkness into day.
Her’s a mission pure and holy,
Winning by her artless love,
Hearts that were too cold and worldly,
And then drawing them above.
In the brightness of summer time,
When the earth was joyful with cheer,
Little Danny, pure and loving,
Sweetly passed from earth away.
Tearfully you left your darling,
In her innocence to rest,
With the trees above her drooping,
And the flowers o'er her breast.
Now you listen —vainly listen —.
For the sound you used to hear;
For the merry childish laughter,
And the pattering footsteps near.
Yet beyond all earthly sorrow,
Where the flowers never die,
Now your little Danny liveth,
In the brighter home on high.
Toward that world of light and glory,
Father, let your footsteps tend
Guide you safely to your darling,
When life’s voyage here shall end.
Life-Long Friend,
Lizzie Dickson Bennett.

The Road to Thankful
ness •
Thankfulness is an attitude of the
It is another name for hapiness.
When one is happy one is thankful, and
visa versa.
To he thankful simply means that
one thoinks he is better iff than he de
serves to be. And this leads as to the
great and luminous truth that happi
ness is not a thing at all, but is the
relation between two things; that is,
tlie relation between our condition
ought to be, between what we have and
what we conceive to be our deserts.
If that be so, then the road to hap
piness ought to lie very plain before
us all. It is, to change our thoughts
instead of trying to change our things
Here is the situation: My house is
not flue enough, my food is not plenti
ful enough, my clothes are not expen
sive enough, my wife is not handsome
enough, my neighbors are not agreea
'e enough, and so on. Hence I am
unhappy. .1 say I don’t see what I have
to be thankful for. I worry and stew
and am generally miserable.
Now to cure this state of things I
can proceed in one of two ways. (1)
I can get me a finer house, better food,
prettier wife, more money, and the
like; or (2) I can change my opinion
about what I deserve.
The first method is followed by fools;
the second by the wise.
For several reason.
1. You can always change your idea
of your deserts, and you cannot al
ways get more and better tilings.
2. If you start getting more things
you generally find that your opinion
if your deserts rises along with them,
in fact usually keeps a few leaps
ahead, so that your resultant state of
dissatisfaction remains constant, about
•he same.
The last thing the average .person
will admit, however, is that the cause
*f his unhappiness lies within himself,
lie is very willing to address himself
to the question which forms one of Mr.
Gilbert Chesterton’s titles, “What’s
Wrong With the World,” but rather re
sents it if you suggest the topic “What’s
Wrong With Me?”
For all that, the gentle reader is re
commended, if he cares to find the
short and straight road to happiness,
to lock himself up in his room alone
and whittle down his conception of
what lie ought to have.
He can get more happiness out of
one hour's exercise at this than he can
get out of a year’s labor at increasing
his pile of goods or improving his en
vironment.
Regulating one's self will probably
never he a popular indoor sport, but
for all that it is the most profitable —
much more so than regulating the uni
verse, or the country, or the laws, or
one’s relations.
The road to thankfulness lies through
your own soul. —Frank Crane.
S. G. RUTLEDGE
TREATS CONVICTS
Mr. S. G. Rutledge did a commen
dable deed recently. He treated the
county convicts to a watermelon cut
ting, which was a great surprise to
them, lint nevertheless enjoyed by the
entire bunch.
This was a fine spirit shown by Mr.
Rutledge and lie has the hearty thanks
of the road gang for is kindness.

Hunger, the Best Sauce.
Sauce is used to create an appetite
or relish for the food. The right way
is to look to your digestion. When you
have good digestion you are certain to
relish your food. Chamberlain’s Tab

The Servant of
Business
Deposits in commercial and savings banks
differ in character. The latter are made
largely in money, are more or less permanent
are granted an interest allowance and do
not involve any understanding as to borrow
ing accommodations. Commercial depos
its on the other hand consist of the current
receipts and working capital of business
houses and are made largely in the form of
checks, drafts or discounted paper arising
daily from the business. The Bank under
takes to count these items into cash, and the
account is based upon an understanding
that it will render these services and extend
a line of credit based upon the net worth and
average balance of the customer.
Under this arrangement the relations be
tween the bank and its customers are recip
rocal. In each line of trade and industry, it
is commonly the case that the use for capital
or credit is more or less fluctuating, so that
at times each bank customer will accumulate
cash balances while at other times needing
to borrow.
Asa general rule, the banking business is
conducted upon the principle that the depos
itors of a bank have a first claim upon it as
borrowers, and it is safe to say that no bank
can hold its own in competition unless it is
able to satisfy its patrons that it is conduct
ing its business upon this basis. It amounts
to a pooling of certain liquid, shifting re
sources which must be available for all the
members of the pool as they want them, and
in fair proportion to their contributions.
It is a mistake, therefore, to suppose that
bank funds may be loaned arbitrarily or to
serve personal interests or favorites, at the
will of bank managers. The rules of good
banking may be violated, but the principles
upon which sound and successful banking is
conducted are in harmony with the interests
of the business community and the general
public.
