REGULATED
NDK-REGULATEO
LOANS?
The Consumer Finance
Industry of Georgia is
an integral part of the
economy of the stale and
its citizens.
As such it has a responsibility
and a duty to all the people, in
all walks o/ life, to maintain and
promulgate the highest standards
of ethics and integrity in the
conduct of business.
This, we in the indus
try have consistently
tried to do.
The business of lending is reg
ulated by law. This is necessary
in order that the. public not be
victimized by that minute minor
sty of lenders who would take an
unfair advantage of their fellow
man.
Members of the Geor
gia Consumer Finance
Association welcome the
regulation by law of our
business. The fact is. our
Association, itself, has
adopted a stringent code
of ethics and conduct
for our members.
We pledge our full co
operation with State,
County and City govern
ments in continuing a
strict adherence to both
letter and spirit of the
law in all our relation
ships with the public.
Ye urge you, as a citizen of
this great state, to acquaint your
self with the laws regulating the
lending and borrowing of money,
so that you may be in a position
to fudge fairly and impartially
any charge or com/daint which
may be made against the Con
sumer Finance Industry.
We want to be FAIR
to the public. We want
the public to be FAIR
to us.

Italy, Spain, France, Germany,
Austria, Belgium and England.
The Jonesboro Women’s Club
was very fortunate to have Mrs.
Cousins as their guest speaker
Monday night. The way she
covered the highlights of her
trip kept all the women sitting
on the edge of their chairs. When
she finished everyone felt that
they themselves had been in her
shoes and covered the sights,
from a ride in a gondola in
Venice, to walking down the
Champs de Elyses in Paris, or
looking at Buckingham Palace,
In London, or shaking hands
with the Pope in Rome, Mrs.
Cousins displayed her souvenirs
that she had selected from these
different countries. It was a
memorable evening for the
Jonesboro Club.

MY EXPERIENCE
For many years I trod this earth
With a hope and without a fear.
For to Jesus I felt I was near,
But of His wonderful love and to get
My daily food, I did not know,
Till the trials, troubles, afflictions
Os life came in at my door.
Then I began to ask myself,
Oh! What shall I do for eternal rest,
When a voice came into my ear,
Oh! To Jesus take every care.
He is ever ready to hear your voice.
No soul that leans on or trusts Him is ever lost.
Though your troubles here below
Are such no earthly one doth know,
But to Jesus always tell
For He doth all things well.
In sickness or in sorrow
He will always hear your cry.
He never will forsake you
He never says goodbye.
Now in my 83rd year, I am happy to say,
As I have often said, I have a home of wealth untold.
The streets are pafved with shining gold.
No death, no sorrow enters there
No cries are heard of pain or care.
My home is Heaven.
Written and Composed by Mrs. J. W. Haynes
in her 83rd jear.

CL AYTON SCHOOL REPORT
(From Page 1)
The September A.D.A. (1955)
shows an increase over last
year’s total of 112 white students.
In the white High Schools the
increase in A.D.A. is 353. The in
crease is 759 in the white Ele
mentary schools.
Obviously the above increase
is indicative of the outstanding
growth in attendance and the
need for more teachers, class
rooms and busses.
Let’s translate these Chevrolet vic
tories into your kind of driving.
You’ve got to have faster acceleration
to win on the tracks. And that means
safer passing on the highways. You’ve
got to have better springing and suspen-
I slon. Again, safer and happier motoring
for you. You’ve got to have big brakes
that act fast and smooth . . . and easy,
accurate steering. More things that make
your driving safer.
But it’s more fun to try these things
out than just to talk about them. So come
in and let’s take a ride.
