With no thought of dic - tating to the farmer how he must run his farm, the bankers have gone on record to the effect that they do not consider it a safe practice to ex tend credit to farmers who are not producing their own food and feed, with cotton and other cash crops as clear surpluses. Much credit for the adoption of this policy is due John Mr. Graham, the new president of the association, whose bank in Rome is an outstanding example of what constructive banking can do to help the farmers of the community attain sound farm prosperity. In order to carry out the adopted policy the association will create an agricultural board in each county. This board will be the body through which the bankers will maintain their agricultural contacts and the agency working together with other organized agricultural interests,, that will formulate definite county agricultural programs.

Finds Americans Profane, But With Sense Of Humor 2 col 24 —Find AMERICANS Inside Cleveland, O.—Dr. Tomio Motose, PhD., of Tokyo, has definitely de termined that the American people are a profane lot, but he's happy to say that they have a better sense of humor than the people of Eng land. Dr. Motose Is a student of Dr. Masao, of Chiosen, and Or Tanaka of Tokyo, both of whom, in Dr. Mo tose's opinion, are quite good. The two doctors have agreed in their writings that the American;. are profane. “But profanity in this country Is not vulgar,” said Or. Motose. "It is an art. Not a fine art, perhaps, but a most convenient art. Swearing seems to serve as a safety valve for emotional stress in this country. It makes a large vocabulary unneces sary and it prevents argument.” Dr. Motose, Ph D., became so in terested in the writings of Dr. Ma sao and Dr, Tanaka that he elected to conduet a personal test. He decided that he would pick out a typical Americ'n city, walk about the streets of that city, and, in a good-natured way, stop pedes trians and advise them to walk straight with an erect posture. The way he handled it was thus: “I beg your pardon, sir, but would suggest that you walk a bit straight er and throw your shoulders back.” He took his notebook along to re cord the reactions. Today, he announced the results of his test, as follows: 318 swore. 156 looked puzzled and said noth ing. 220 just smiled and walked on.. 25 made gestures indicating they did not consider Dr. Motose should be permitted to go about alone. 23 sputtered incoherently and ln didnantly. 47 thanked him sarcastically. 10 thanked him sincerely. 87 argued that they were walking correctly. 9 said they couldn't help walking that way, that they were getting old. The rest, paid no attention, as it they considered Dr. Motose to be a panhandler. | Of the 318 who swore, 38 were eloquent. Fifty told him to mind his sb-and-so business. Two ex pounded upon his possible future. One hundred and eighty swore, as it were with a smile. MotoSfe said, “Americans have a better sense of humor than the English. I tried a similar experi ment in London. I was, what you call it tossed on my ear,” Dr. Motose studied at Oxford, taught psychology in Tokyo Univer sity and has been an interpreter for the league of nations. Favors Cotton Dusting. According to P. L. Bryan of Gar ner, route 2, in Wake county the farmer who says that cotton dust ing is no good is usually too lazy to do the necessary work. Mr. Bryan has 18 acres that are conceded to be the best in his community and all of the crop has been dusted. _ EXCURSION TO TEXAS Here is an opportunity to visit old friends in Texas at a minimum cost.
