fAL-PAI )NDAYs_lUriS__^ WfllBe* MDebt lent By Bill it Rate To Be Cut and Prtedpal Pasrments Eikninated "VI Mm.—» TIUe 11 ot the new farm relief contains proTlslons that will aid the nearly 400,000 farmers sho haye loans aggregating ^ttwe than one billion dollars 'll federal land banks the United States. Aeonllng to information sup- extension service of '’RWW^dOllege by the chairman of the federal farm board, Henry lh||enthau, Jr„ In 60 days after approipl of the act by Presi dent Rooserelt, the interest ratd y on all these mortgages will be fndnoed to 4 l-2 per cent. Bor rowers are now paying between i and • per cent. The new rate of Interest must remain In force five years. Then, too, the act provides that payments on the principal of the loans shall not be requir ed for a period of five years if the mortgage Is otherwise kept In good standing. Heretofore, the land bank mortgages have re quired payments annually or B»ml-annually on the principal in addition to interest on the un paid balance. The banks are given authority to postpone pay ments on the principal for the next five years and also to post pone payments on the interest if the farmer is unable to meet such payments. Tlhen, those farmers who do not have iheir loans with the land bank but have secured them from private parties and organi- xations, may have their mort gages taken over by the land lianks and share in the same ■benefits as those when, who have borrowed from the land banks originally. This will apply where the place Is in danger of being lost through foreclosure. In this case the person holding the mort gage must help. A farmer may also apply for a first mortgage from the land t>ank if his loan is due and pay able and he cannot meet the pay ment. He may also redeem land that has been sold and secure funds for putting the place on a aoond basis again. County farm agents will aid farmers in learn ing the details of these new plans. let each MAH be HIMSELF r '' . (The following poem, whose author is unknown, was hailed The Jo^al-Patriot by J. B. Williams and we pass it along to our readers.) “When Shakespeare was shakespearing. he knew not he shakespeared, And when Meyerbeer was meyerbeering, he knew not he meyerbeered- Thucydides, thucydidesing; Demosthenes, demosthenesing. Did their own work in thei^ own way, and did it as they pleased, , But knew not they thucydided, or they dcmosthenesed. “When Chaucer was a-chaucering, he chauoercd on unknowingly, And Edgar Allen Poe poed on, and knew not he was upeing. , Unconscious Poe poed poeingly, and Shelley shelled unknowingly. And Kant, he kanted evermore and knew not he could kant; And Dante danted all his life, and knew not he could dant. “When a man’s a Socratesing, you may know he’s Socrates. When a man’s Themistoclesing, he must b« Themistocles. By the way a man’s behaving, be he Neroing or Gustaving, ^ He is Nero or Gustavos, and no other man can be! For no other man can do his work, no other man than he. “So let Stubbs keep on a-stubbing, and try not to Shakespeare; And Grubbs continue grubbing, and try not to Meyerbeer; Let Streeter keep a-streeting, and Peters keep on petering; For in somebody-el.«eing, there is not fame nor pelf.

I.orene Giithrie, Eda B the first advertisement of a new advertising campaign, will de clare that “we have made a com plete turn-around and at last .America's face is toward the future.’’ The campaign will represent the first advertising done by the Ford Motor company since March 31. 1932, it was announced, and will make use of daily and week ly newspapers throughout the country. The letter over the motor mag nate’s signature, dated May 9 at Dearborn. Mich., will say: We Face the Future ".A great thing has occurred amongst us. We have made a complete turn-round and at last America's face, is toward the future. ■’Three years—1929 to 1932— we Americans looked backward. All our old financial and politi cal machinery was geared to pull us out of the depression by the same door through which we entered. We thought it simply a case of going back the way we came. It failed. 'We now realize that the way out is forward— through it. “Thanks for that belongs to state around. Having observed' the failure of sincere efforts to haul us back the way we came, he designed a new method, new political and financial machin ery—to pull us out the way we are going—forward. He is clear ing international obstacles out of the way; he does not stand in awe of tariffs. The people begin to feel that he does not take ad vice from the ‘interests’; that he has courage and loyalty to work for one supreme interest only— the welfare of the American peo ple. That is a big advertisement for t'wo months in office. .All Ready to Help “And now we all look to what is coming; we grow less and less concerned with what is behind. We are looking for a hand-hold on the haul rope. Every man wants to do what he can and all he can. “The best thing I can do for the country is to create industry by building good motor cars. If I knew anything better to do. I would do it. Industry must be my contribution. Motor cars must face ahead to the future, like everything else. They are so much a part of th>* nation’s daily life that if they lag behind, they hold the country hack.” THE BUSY DOLLAR (Mooresville Enterprise) Only the busy ‘dollar counts. Put a million dollars in circula tion and things begin to happen. Put even one dollar into circu lation and action begins. Part of it goes to merchants, who pro vide what one wants or needs. ■Another part goes to employees. They spend it for the comforts and luxuries of life when they can afford them. The grocer, the druggist, the dry goods stores and other? pass it on to those from whom they buy and pay wages, Eventually a part of it gets to the farmer, the distribu tor and all others having parts in tlie making and selling of coin- moiiilies. They speed up produc tion to meet consumption and Phillips. .Albert Garwoo.l, Ithiit meaii.s more jobs. Willie Hamby. Boyden Johtison, Lee Settle. Tom Story. Don Mitchell.

Oinic For Pre-8chool Children To Be Held One dollar, rapidly turned over, does the work of a thoms- and dollars. It decreases stocks of accumulated goods and makes room for replacements. It brings direci and indirect results to -very hand that has used it and passed it along to someone else. The hoarded dollar, on the other hand, decreases business and holds up industry, thus making it harder for everyone to do bus- ine.s8. It does its part to create poverty where there should be none, as well as sickness, des pair and misery. Jobs are cheaper than charity —and without jobs there will be little or nothing left for charity. The hoarder who loves money for itself and not for what it can do should understand jnst what he is doing. A minute’s reasoning would show the fool ishness and futility of this sense less ami destructive policy. Rbi Canter b takoi Was Motter Of Mrs. J. M. , Low^; Funeral Held -t':/ Last Thursday > V\. Mrs. Mary Jane Canter, of near Wllkesboro, died at the Wilkes hoepital here Wednesday afternoon at 6:80 o’clock follo'w- ing: an extended illoeas.

She'was 83 years old. Her hus band, C. A. Canter, who survives her, is 85 years old. They had been married 64 years.

M. Lowe, of this city, and one son, S. C. Canter, who makes his home with his fath- er. The funeral service was conduct ed Thursday afternoon at 3 o’clock at Mountain Park cemetery in Wllkesboro.

The average American home uses artificial light seven hours a day during December and only two and oi>e-half hours during the month of June. Zanzibar, an island lying 23 miles off the eastern coast of Africa, is often called the Isle of Cloves, because it yields the bulk of the world’s supply of that spice. Forty per cent of our daily air plane mileage is traveled at night. The United States has 90 per cent of the world’s lighted air ways. i. Man Found Slain In Alexander Ray Woodard, a veteran of the World War, about 35 years of age, was found dead at hlc home near the Davis mills, in Alex ander county, early Thursday afternoon. There was every evi dence of murder, five blows on the head with a claw hammer in the hands of an unknown party having caused the death. Mr. Will Steele, a neighbor, living 200 to 300 yards from the Woodard home, went to the house early Thursdav afternoon and found Mr. 'Woodard lying on the floor. The doors were all locked and the keys thrown away. Dr. A. M. Edwards, county coroner, 'was called in and held an inquest. The body of the dead man was lying on the floor in front of the fire place. There were five holes in his head, the head wounds having been clearly inflicted by a claw hammer that was left lying on the floor near the body. The body had been covered with quilts and a chair had been turn- bility for the crime. - —? The investigation revealed that Mr. Woodard obtained some milk and other food from his neigh bor late Wednesday, and this was found in the house, undisturbed, ed over the body.
