Amazing Growth Is
Predkfted For State
of Ga. By Attorney
Atlanta, Ga. (GPS)—-Reuben R.
Arnold, prominent Atlanta law
yer, in a speech at the recent or
ganization dinner for the Fulton
County bicentennial organiza
tion here, predicted an amazing
growth for Georgia.
“In my opinion the south is
the section of the world which
will witness the greatest
opment in the next century,” Mr.
Arnold said.” Georgia is the key
state of the south. We have
more square miles of land in
Georgia than are ip England and
Wales combined. We cpuld
easily take care of 40,000,000
people. I believe Georgia some
day wil have a population of at
least 20,000,000.”
Mr. Arnold said Georgia has
eight of the pine climatic zones
of the Westerp hemisphere and
possesses numerous other ad
vantages which will bring the
state to the forefront.
Condition* Thai Affect
Human Eye, Injuriously
Too long hour* of continuous use of
the eyes should be avoided by a r«it at
Intervals, If only for a few mlnutM, st
which time they caa ba benefited by
being bathed with ordinary cold water
from the faucet, Dr. Sol Rosenblatt ex
plains In “Bye Hygiene and Heat," aa
article appearing (n Hygela, the Health
Magazine.
It Is the beat that Is generated over
at long period by excessive use of the
eyes that causes the eyes to become
tired. Heat affects the eyes In numer
ous ways. Doctor Rosenblatt expltUned.
The heat generated by excessive IM
of the eyes over long hours, added to
the ordinary body heat ; the heat of
fever repeated over a period of years;
the heat of brilliant sunlight or too In
tense artificial light, and the beat ot
furnaces over a period of time are
detrimental to the function of the eye.
Nature provides a safeguard to a
manner somewhat similar to that of the
water-cooled motor. Transparent fluids
are circulated within the eye, and.the
anterior surface of the eye is bathed
with fluid coining down from, the tear
gland above the eye. The peculiar
special function of the eye heut require#
transparency, and excessive de
stroys thst quality; the loss of trans
parency Is fatal to the function of that
special organ, even though Its forsa
and strength are fully regained.

Fire Record
| Shows Heavy Loss
Atlanta, Ga.—According to the
State Forest Service, the acres
biirned over in 1932 arufthe dam
age sustained i s greater than nor
mal because of the tire hazard
caused by an extreme drouth.
The Division of Forestry has
its record of forest
fires of the state for 1932. Ac
cording to this report there were
23,500 fires that burned over 6,-
691,186 acres, doing damage es
timated at $7,302,9(50.
The damage to forests belong
ing to the Timber Protective Or
ganizations was the greatest
since these organizations were
formed, according to the State
Forester, who says that the mem
bers of these organizations did
valiant service to hold the fires
of a sdason of unusual fire haz
ard down to 12 per cent of the
area.
The record also shows that
on unorganized lands the burned
over area is 30 per eenit of the
whole. In south Georgia, where
the drouth was severest and the
fire hazard greatest, the area
burned reached as high as 80 per
cent in some counties. This in
cluded what is termed “protec
tive” burning by naval stores
operators. Most of the damage
in 1932 was in the spring.

YOUR BANK AND MINE
». The Secret of Borrowing Money
By Gordon Louia
la a previous article I mentioned
the problem of the bank In "rent
lag" or loaning money. That prob
Vein Vs made more difficult because
amny people do not know how to
quallfy themselves as "renters"
or borrowers.
Few business men can operate
without borrowing money at some
time In their career. One of the
btnest reasons for the existence
of banks is the fact that they make
money possible to organizations and
Individuals who. In turn, can use
tt for a reasonable period, to their
own advantage and that of the
community. Many notable achieve
ments. have been made possible
through bank loans. A Saint Louis
bank provided the bulk of the
funds that enabled Lindbergh to
make his memorable flight across
the Atlantic. His savings and for
ty-three hundred dollars loaned by
a Chicago banker enabled Walter
f. Chrysler to start his great au
tomobtle manufacturing plant. The
history of business Is dotted with
the stories of men who have built
great Industries and have given em-
What A Hen Did In
Georgia City Market
Dawson, Gfa. (GPS)—Forty
five cents doesn’t sound like a
whole lot of money for a nice fat
hen. Nevertheless 45 cents in
times of “depression” is a
lot of money, and buy a good
many items if placed in the
hands of a thrifty shopper.
An old negro mammy proved
the foregoing statement recently
when she brought a nice fat hen
to town and triaded it for some
rations. Here’s what she got for
her hen:
5 boxes of matches.
2 bars of soap.
2 packages of washing powder.
3 pounds of meal.
2 packages of salt.
2 Vi pounds of rice.
2 , /a pounds of grits.
1 pound of iard.
The old woman spent her 45
cents with great care and much
thought, and that she got her
money’s worth is evidenced by
the eight items previously listed.

ployment to thousands through the
medium of money borrowed from
the banks.
The important thing for us to
know la how they qualified as bor
rowers. First of all they had “char
actor." What does that word mean?
First of all It implies honesty and
Integrity. As applied to bank loans,
however, It also means business
ability, good management, general
successtulness.
If a man’s record shows that ha
Is in the habit of discharging his
obligations promptly, It suggests
at onca that he Is able to maka
money with which to do it. It his
business record shows that he U
operating intelligently and success
fully, If it shows that he is not
weighed down with tremendous in
debtedness already, then every
thing Is In bis favor that he will
be able to take the money bor
rowed from the bank and employ
It so as to make a profit. If be
can do this, It Is obvious that when
tt comes time to repay the loaa
he will have the money plus the
profit he has made. I
