The possibilities of the black belt of
few years ago Until that time this rich
prairie belt was given over to the negro
tenant and wage hand, who scratched the
surface of our rich soil and produced cot
ton and some corn.
About three or four years ago the bus
mess men of Demopolis took an inven-
tory of our present and potential wealth.
They realized that new people were need
ed to help us to develop, that intelligent
white farmers were needed to get the
most from our soil and to build up COM
munities, erect schools and make this a
more modern and progressive agricultural
center.
They began to tell the story of our beau
tiful country, through agricultural papers
and magazines they extended an invita-
ton to the intelligent white farmer to
come and make this his home. Among
the first results of this campaign of ad-
vertising was the location of active, legiti-
mate real estate men-men attracted by
the richness of our soil and the great
possibilities for conservative development.
They Joined hands with our business men,
and they, too, sent out to the agricultural
world the story of our undeveloped wealth
in agriculture. They first brought ex-
perts who analyzed the soil, made a
study of climatic conditions, measured the
rainfall and then reported the result of
their investigations. These experts them
selves made investments, and then they
gave to the agricultural world the truth
that the cane brake section of the black
belt of Alabama, that section immed1-
ately around Demopols, was possibly the
greatest alfalfa belt of the south, if not
of the entire country.
From Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Tennes-
see and Kentucky came intelligent home
kind now established 1t might have been
possible by the utilization of it's strength
and resources to prevent the possible
panic which might have been consequent
upon the embarra ssnent OF the trust insti-
tuition of Washington and the attitude of
frightened depostors toward that insti-
tuition
But the feeling in this city is that the
establishment of regional banks will not
absolutely insure the country against
money panics. There may come cyclonie
financial storm affecting many parts OF
the country at the same time. In that
case. the regional. district of which New
York city is the center would still be COM
PEELED to bear much the greater part of
the responsibility and burden of resisting
the panic and then allaying 1t. 1t is said
here that the proposition contained in the
pending scurrency bill whereby in times
of stress In one region enforced loans can
be obtained from another is nothing more
than an amplifcation of the cooperative
and voluntary loan making system which
is characteristic of the clearing house as
sociations throughout the United States.
1t was the utilization of this clearing
house reserve power which enabled the
country to weather the panic of 1907.

~ OMETHING like 3S,45l fans
have asked me during the past
few days whether Tech was
just taking things easy in their game
against Florida and thus trying to
I fool Sewanee, or whether the team
was really doing it's best against the
Gators; and if the latter, how ! eX-
plain the surprising reversal of play
ing form shown by the Yellow jack
cts.
Yes, frankly, Tech was doing her
best-on that day and under the con-
dtions What the conditions were
that really count in a case of this
sort is something it would be diffi--
cult for any one not more or less OF
football expert to comprehend:
Suffice it TO say that conditions had
radically changed in the one week
that lay between the Florida and the
Sewanee games, in so far, at least, as
they were at all relG ted to the play
ing of the Tech team
MANY are wondering whether Sc
INl vance had not been a greatly
overrated team up to last Saturday;
and by the same token they are mar
yelling whether Tech had not been
greatly underestimate. In other
words, they presume that one or the
other Of these two answers must be
the explanation Of Techs impressive
victory For my part believe
neither.
Ii is true enough that Tech played
rather better ball last Saturday than
she has played any previous day this
fan; but then it was time she should
do so. The team has been brought
along more slowly this year than
usual and with 50 many men new to
The Varsity system it took time to

had better get on the job or they are
in fair way to be stung by the

The coach is putting much stress
on new passes, as he seems to have
some very accurate passers and good
receivers this year. They have met
with great success with passes Sd
far therefore he deems it wise to
Work harder on this feature of the

bright and clear Thursday morning
and the indications we're for ideal

the largest crowds that ever attended
a football game in Augusta will be
on hand. The banner attendance in
the past has been 5000, and nearly
5000 are expected this afternoon.

In fine fettle for the game. Captain

for the Red and Black, and says that
score OF 25 or 30 TO will not be

Clemson boys DO not talk so much
of overcoming the fierce onslaughts

contest, but they are hopeful Of tying
the game or holding Georgia to a
very low score Clemson gained much
confidence from the game against the

Heisman Doesn't Expect to Win
+s+
SAYS Tech Won't Be Outclassed

that we have read and heard so much
| about as being on the Tech team this
| fall it is probably worth noting that
| of the eleven players who started the
| game eight of them were in college
last year, though only five of these
/ on the varsity. OF the three new men
-Preas, Patton and Cushman--the
first weighs 1872, the second 1853, and
| the last 1853. OF the nine subs put

vaismare new men. The former
i, weighs 14f and the latter 1877. I give
these details merely to show that the
team is not really getting from the
public the credit that it deserves.
HAVING trounced Sewanee in such
Ii decisive fashion Tech admirers
are feeling good over the game with
Auburn the coming Saturday. But if
| am any judge. of things footballic
they will do well to take my tip and
go slow"
How can a rush line averaging 1863
successfully cope for an hour with
one averaging 1870 pounds Especial
ly when Auburn has nine backs, the
one as good as the other, to send in
behind that line in relays every ten
minutes? And back of this Is the
fact that Tech has lost TrawiCk I.u-
cas- and Johnston. In addition Alex
ander, one OF the few dependable line
subs, is on the hospital list now with
a very bad shoulder that he took on
in the Sewanee game. Nance, too,
is more or less Indispensable on ac
count OF an attack of chills, and it is
doubtful just how long he viii last.
He was out Of the lineup last Satur-
day for this reason, and as Alexander,
his sub, had to leave the game in the
first half it's wonder the Tech line
was able to hold up on that side.
A ND yet the team Is going good.
"a Coach Devore has done miracles
with the green line men and left the
other coaches free to attend to the
backs whose improved drive and
lack OF fumbliug against Sewanee
showed the results Of the more con-
centrated attention that had been put
upon them.
The team has found itself in spirit
at last. as has the college, and il
knows full well what it is going up
against on Saturday / have little
fear that it will not be able to give a
good account Of itself
But to demand that the team as 1t
stands should WIN from what | re-
gard just al present as the strongest
team In the South, is, to my way Of
looking at II, just a little more than
ia within the pale of reason and sound
sense
