“Somebody”
She was beautiful and bright,
And was always right,
Who can this somebody be?
She was tall and fair
And has beautiful hair,
Oh, who can th s somebody be?
She was holy and true,
Her eyes ai e gtey blue,
Sf.iJl we ask
Who can this somebody be?
She was kind as coolO be,
Good hearted was she,
Yet the question, who can this be?
She works in the morning,
She works at night,
She works until everyting
Is exactly right,
And still we ask
Who can this somebody be?
Was t'ds somebody me?
Ah r.o, but listen and you’ll see
She is old and gray,
Still lovely is she;
She is mother’s mother.
And grandm rther to me.

Stresies Trying’
So many in Dade County think
that unless they have glass jars
or tin cans to put up surplus fruit
and Vfgetables in, the only thing
to do is howl for jars, or if not,
the howling kind just do nothing
about it.
Some ways of dry ing vegetables
were given in an earlier edition of
the Times, and here are others.
Don’t say it can’t be dons unit
you have tried it, and try it just
once to ,-ee if you like it. The
“Big Bad Wolf” might be easier
to cope with if there is a variety
of dried vegetables in the house
next winter.
Here they are:
1. Peas, field: When roasting
ear size, shell; blanch 5 10 min¬
utes; cold dip; dry between cloths
and spread on drying racks. Have
better flavor than if allowed to
ripen on the vine.
2. Lima or Butter Beans: The
same as field peas. Have better
flavor if dried while in the green
stage.
3. Green peppers, egg plant,
carrots, squash, etc., may be dri¬
ed by the same method
4. Berries: Wash and sp.ead
to dry.
To serve these dried foods soak
over night and cook in the water
in which they were soaked.
Jars or no jars, cans or no cans,
a person doesn’t have to do with¬
out food next winter, if he or she
will use their drying sense.

NO GOOD REASON
FOR PESSIMISM
F. M. Law, President American
Banker* Association, Sees Im¬
proving Conditions and
a Changing Future
WASHINGTON, D. C.—There Is no
good reason for pessimism today, for
though the "depression is not by any
means over we are coming out of it,”
F. M. Law, President of the American
Bankers Association told the American
Institute of Banking convention here
recently.
“Banking Is a necessary business
and will endure," Mr. Law said. "In
order to endure, It must be the right
sort of banking, under the right sort of
management.
“The American Institute of Banking
commands and is entitled to great re¬
spect because Its major objective Is to
teach and promote the right kind of
banking. One of the chief reasons for
my faith In the future of banking is
that this organization has 219 active
chapters, with over 50,000 members,
and with 33,000 students enrolled, and
it Is doing a good Job in teaching
these thousands of bank employees
what good banking is, and what it Is
not.”
Kusinesi Men Should Recognize New
Conditions
Business men everywhere, and espe¬
cially bankers, he said, will do weil to
recognize and to understand the many
chunges that are occurring, for “it is
fatal to be obsessed with the belief
that any and all change from the exist¬
ing order is heresy.”
Banking is a serious business, he
said and "I know not one single man
or woman who has made a success of
it who has not been over a long period
of years a hard worker.” He added:
“Take for your motto the old German
phrase ‘Ich Dien.' (I serve). Meaning
what? Serve your depositors, your
stockholders and society.
“Let no man tell you that private ini¬
tiative is dead. On the contrary, it com¬
mands a greater premium today than
ever before. If you and others like you
have courage enouh, if you possess
patience, if you ha^a passion for hard
work, and if, with an open mind, you
look to and prepare for the future and
the opportunities which are sure to
come, you cannot be denied. Your gen¬
eration will add prestige to the honor¬
able calling that we know as banking.”
Banks Repay R. F. C. Loans
Banks and trust companies on May
31 had repaid 61 per cent, or $967,959,-
623.08 of the 81,581,357,085.08 in cash
which they had received from the Re¬
construction Finance Corporation since
its establishment on February 2, 1932.
FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD
FINDS BANKING BETTER
WASHINGTON, D. C.—A review by
the Federal Reserve Board indicates
that the condition of operating banks,
particularly in country districts, has
improved in recent months, as shown
by the fact that these banks have been
able to reduce their indebtedness to the
reserve banks, to the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation and to others.
The July bulletin of the board in dis¬
cussing these findings says:
“At the same time progress has been
made in making available to depositors
funds that had been tied up in closed
banks.
“Banks In flAncial centres have
been out of debt to the Federal Reserve
Banks for a long time and In addition
have had a large volume of excess re¬
serves. At the beginning of the year
there were still many small banks
throughout the country, however, that
carried a considerable load of indebt¬
edness.
Country Banks Reflect Improvement
"The liquidation of indebtedness by
these banks reflects in part improve¬
ment in business condition and the con-
sequent ability of customers to repay
bank loans which long had been frozen.
It constitutes a strengthening of the
banking position.”
The board pointed out that the reduc¬
tion of member bank indebtedness has
been continuous since the beginning
of 1932 except for a brief period dur¬
ing the banking crisis in the Spring of
1933. The review continued:
“In 1932 liquidation of indebtedness
of member banks to the reserve banks
was accompanied by an increase of
their borrowings from the Reconstruc¬
tion Finance Corporation. In the past
year and a half, however, indebtedness
of member banks to the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation has also been re¬
duced."
sparingly”, but he who soweth
bountifully shall reap bountifully
is taught us in the Bible. To
give our best for God, we must
live a clean, pure and holy life;
consecrating our every talent to
God. Let Him use our lives for
His own honor and glory; doing
every good work, as “faith with¬
out works is dead”. May we all
give our best to God.

SEES TURNING POINT
IN BANKING HISTORY
NEW YORK. — The American
Bankers Association Journal in Us
July issue presents the following re¬
view of banking and business condi¬
tions:
“It is an almost universal opinion
among bankers that June has been the
turning point in bankiug history in
the matter of recovery. Reasons for
the optimism are twofold-the condi¬
tion of the banks and the prospects of
better banking business.
“The reorganization of the banking
system after the holiday of sixteen
months ago is now practically com¬
plete. The comparatively few banks
yet to be reorganized and reopened are
no longer a serious factor in the situa¬
tion. The year’s preparatory period for
the enforcement of major provisions
of the Banking Act of 1933 has. passed,
and banks now have a definite idea of
where they stand."
Do Your Best for God
The words of the song, “give to
the world the best you have and
the best will come back to you”,
are so true. We should do our
best for God at all times. To be
a real true Christian, one of God’s
beloved disciples, we should give
our talents, time, love and money
to God. Christ must have all of a
life, in order to live his own vic¬
torious life; the life that wins thru
us. Will we give our best to God;
we won’t be sorry. If we don’t re¬
ceiveour reward here, we will
