THURSDAY, AUGUST 25. 1021. 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\ Swift’s Premium jhc jjKCUW Bacon, always the same, always fa- Q mously good. 0 VYii 1 U Today this bacon, wrapped, sealed DD UlvA HIM and branded, has | 1 i (J 1 1 circled the world.

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. UNION LOCALS .

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. MT.

Garner. 1899 1921 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.
