Protracted meetings nearly all
over and not many souis saved.
Rev. Claud Hendricks of Atlanta
done some wonderful preaching
at Bethel last week and some
interest was manifested —but not
a soul was saved or reclaimed.
1 know it was not the preacher’s
fault, for he manifested his love
fur lost souls in every sermon. It
seems that we will never have
another sin killing revival. The
writer is hungry to be revived
and see the whole church for
God. But alas! there are some
things that will have to be gotten
out of the way first, it seems.

Money to Lend Fenners

51-2 c—No Commissions
The Federal Farm Loan Act passed by Congress several months ago
established in the United States a r iral credit system, by which the farmers may
borrow money on their farm land, at the rate of five and one-half per cent per an
num, letting the same run for forty years, if desired.
The main difficulty in connection with obtaining loans under this Act
was the detailed red-tape of organization into Farm Loan Associations. This
difficulty has just recently been overcome for the farmers of Henry county.
The Hampton National Farm Loan Association has already closed its
first bunch of loans, and is authorized to take applications on farms anywhere in
Henry county for other loans. If you are not familiar with the advantages of a
loan at such a low rate of interest, and with such a long time to run without re
newal, you should communicate with our secretary.
The term recommended by The Federal Land Bank of Columbia is thir
ty-five years. On a loan of SIOOO.OO, for 35 years, the borrower pays annually
the sum of sixty-five dollars, which in the 35 years, pays off the entire amount of
principal and interest; whereas, at the prevailing rate of intesest, 8 per cent, he
would pay each year SBO.OO as interest, and at the end of the time still owe all of
his principal. The privilege of paying all of the loan off, or any part thereof, is
granted to the borrower after five years.
We are taking another bunch of applications now, upon which appraise
ments will be made right away. Communicate with us at once in order to get
your loan through promptly. If your application should not be approved for as
much as you need to carry, there will be no obligation on the applicant's part to
take the money. Communicate with
G. F. FEARS, Secretary
Hampton, Ga.
TESTIMONIAL
R. F. D. No. 6, McDonough, Ga., July 5, 1919.
Smith-Newman Mfg. Co., McDonough, Ga.
Dear Sirs: I bought one of your TRI-PLEX machines last year,
and after sharpening my gins with the TRI-PLEX it increased their
capacity fully one hundred per cent. When I bought this machine I
already owned and had been using another make of Filer, and it was
hard for me to believe your statement when you told me that if I
would use the TRI-PLEX according to instructions that it would
more than pay for itself the first season, but I find that you are ex
actly right about it. It is the best $75.00 I have ever spent to go
in my Gin House. Yours truly,
(Signed) R. A. RUSSELL.
There is no use in spending your good hard earned money for a
marchine that is an imitation or an infringement on our TRI-PLEX.
