Since the Merchants & Farmers
Bank Of this city has advertised their
ability and willingness to finance the
any amount Of cotton, there remains no
reason why the people living in the
territory tributary to OkoIona should
sell another bale while the present
depressed condition of the market
maintains. Doubtless the other banks
here and elsewhere to do what they
can along the same line and we be-
live it is in the power of the banks of
the South to finance every unsold bale
Of cotton now in the hands OF the
people. The producer should take
his cotton off the market and should
do it now. Every bale sold now
helps to run the price down. Quit
selling, borrow money, pay your debts
and let the spinner sweat.

That is rather a sweeping statement, however. for hosts of chii. dren love to have the stories and jim gles of the Children's Page read Io them. There is many grandfather and grandmother whose eyes are dim who like nothing better than to sit and listen to The Companion stories and aT- ticies. Many 8 blind person, and even those who in addition can neither speak nor hear have been cheered by The Com paniOn, it's contents having been communicated to them through the finger-tips of friends. The reading Of The Youths Com panion is a pretty sure cure for all kinds of loneliness Robinson Cruso would have been a happier man if he could have had his Companion Thursday as well as his man Friday. Just send for the Pros pectus for 1912 and sample copies of the paper .-

Fire

Friday noon an alarm was given
for the fire boys to come to their duty.
The fire was at the home Of Chris
Beck iu Hudlerville but q misunder-
standing led them to the home of
Mrs. J. c. Burkey in Bradley Vile and
there not being any fire there, went to
the home Of Mr.. Beck. The lady of
the house was cooking dinner and
when out doors she noticed smoke
coming from the cellar. She went in
the house and finding it in flames
spread the alarm. By the time the
fire boys were there the house was
burning briskly. The house was burn
ed to the ground in spite of all their
work. The furniture and household
goods were saved. The house of Ed
Reuss', east of Mr.. Beck's, was threat
ened but by the aid OF water was saw
ed. The house belonged to Mr.. Gibson
and was quite a loss.
