The Geor gia Bankers’ Convention in Augus ta the last half of (his wefek will feature on- its program for Sidgrr, day the subject of . A.gi;ijAiltpj?af Credits and from this day’s deliber ations great good is expected to follow for the entire State. The of the day will be Hon. Cooper, Comissionc-.r of the Farm Loan Board, Washington, D. C., and Howard C. Arnold, Secret tary, Federal Land Bank and of the Intermediate Credit Bank at Colum bia, S. G., having jurisdiction over Georgia. The administration of the Inter mediate Credit Banks as well as the Federal Land Banks is vested in the Federal Farm Loan Board of which Governor Cooper is the head. The Intermediate Credit Bank was created by the Agricultural Credit Act of 1923 and very little advan tage has been derived from its facil ities so far by the banks of Geor gia, it is stated. The responsibility for this condition, it is asserted, is not laid, at the door of the officials either in Columbia or in Washing ton, but is rather due, it is claimed, to the Intermediate . Credit Banks being a new and untried agency through which the Government stands ready to come to the aid of the farmer.

Thomas, presid ing in Thomas Superior now in session here, in charging the grand jury stated that no man who can openly defy his government can fee a good citizen and that men who deliberately defy the law are defy ing the government. He carried a strong appeal for tha form of serv ice that knows no selfishness but only courage in the face of duty. The sanctity of the home, the value of the schools and the churches, he said, were measured by the valor and strength of the men who were chosen for this high duty. The usual legal phases of the grand jurors’ duty were gone into very succinct ly, in which he paid especial atten tion to the pistol and whiskey as the two articles that did more to create and abet crime than any others known. Both are unlawful and therefore, outlawed. i tl "<t imn dcrfuljlavor \ ' , jft ® Jis- flaOor is Worth more —but no extra cost SHE who is wise in the ways of housekeeping, enter taining, and more particularly of marketing, asks two questions: “How good?’ 5 and “How much?” How good?
