LOAFERS These in tv be found about every community. They are men who s::am to have tiin ■ for everything but earning a living. T i i.y are n >t pro Dicers an 1 ad l nothing to the value of property. As they never have any business with banks they do not interest ns. There is however, a lot of loafers in this community in whom we are in to rest-.* 1. .Many of them bear the legend : “In God we trust.” They are hidden in out-of-the-way places, pork barrels, old sacks, bed ticks, tin cans. etc. They are earning nothing for their owners, nor ar< they o. tin slightest b motifc to the community, and there are enough of linn 1 iif-u*-; in this e>n n l lity to run a bank if put to work. N< farmer would keep a hired man around who did not work, and if all his hens stopped laying eggs and the cows refused *o give any mon milk, they would be disposed of. Let's get these dollar loafers busy and the la st place to start tli-r.i is at tips bank. And the owners may rest assured that they will be safe in our li inds, but they will be put to work at once. If all the idle money in in this county was at work all *the time, ns it should !><•. the prosperity of everyone in the county would be geratly increased there!) . . Now do not allow any such loafers to lie idle about yon, but rush them into the bank and watch them work. We are open every day to receive them. THE BANK OF HENRY COUNTY, McDonough, - Ga.
