PUr.ELY PERSONAL.

PUF.ELY Personal.
In response to a sole.-.n sense OF
duty l have rendered my services to
the nation in its crisis. That tender
has been accept 4 to the extent that
] have been directed to report to the
officers trail rs camp on August n,
there to dcerinine ny qualifications
for service a, the front.
Whatever may be the duration of
my absence from this office, The Her
aid will be in clean and safe hands.
My successor as editor is well quail
fed and the policy of the paper will
be unchanged. My interest in it will
not cease and | earnestly trust that
it will continue to enjoy the conf
dence and the patronage of the most
loyal constituency that ever blessed
any public journal.
For ten years l have been the editor
of this paper. If | know my own
heart there has never been an hour
during that time that have not earn
estly sought to serve the public good.
] have desired nothing for myself that
/ did not wish all of the people to
have and enjoy. In good conscience l
can say that l have never used the
columns of this paper for personal
exploitation and that my supreme am
bition has been to serve, faithfully,
impartially and disinterestedly, all the
people of the county and state.
During that period of storm and
stress have given some hard knocks
and received some. 1t has been neces-
sary in the interest of the public
good, as l conscientiously conceived
it. to oppose many men and measures.
But l have always done so without
malice and with no ambition save the
greatest good to the greatest number.
] have no wounds to heal. l have
never knowingly sought to do any
man evil. AS l have doubtless mis-.
understood others, so others have mis-
understood me, but The Herald's rec
ord of achievement in local and state
affairs during these ten years will
always be a source of supreme pride
and satisfaction to me.
Even if the duration of my absence
SHOULD be brief, | cannot deny that
the thought of separation from the
friends whose counsel and patronage
have sustained me since came to this
county, gives me pain. came here
ten years ago stranger, but the peo-
pie of Maury county received me as
one of their own. No man ever had
better friends than | have had among
the people of this county and | sim
cerely hope that on one can ever
charge that ingratitude will be num-
bered with my faults The people of |
Maury county will always be upper
most in my thoughts, their confidence |
in me and friendship for me will ever
be a source of strength and inspira |
ton to me.
In the years that are to come earn,
estly pray that | may so conduct my
self that no friend in Maury county
Will ever have cause to regret the con-
fidence which he has reposed in me.
May Almighty God give me the faith,
and the courage and the grace to SO
live that | shall prove worthy of the
trust and fidelity of my Maury county
friends. J. l. FINNEY.

THIS FARMER SAVED S3.I5

A farmer went into a certain
Kansas store recently and said to
the dealer: 81 have an order here
or $22 worth of merchandise that
1 made out to send away, but, as
matter of fairness to- you, want you
to figure on the bill I have been
told that our home merchants can't
meet the prices of-out-of-town con-
cerns-and I want to know" And
the dealer said, GA chance at your
business is all I ask" The farmer
read off the list of things wanted and
dealer wrote them down, placing af-
Then he added the figures, and the
farmer found that by buying at home
he could save $3.15 on the bill. The
dealer then showed the farmer the
goods, the several articles all being
of equal quality, and, in some in
stances being superior in quality to
brands and makes noted on the far
mer's list. The farmer not only bought
his bill of the home dealer, but saved
the $3.15 on the purchase; he saved
the freight it would have been nee
essary for him to pay on an out-of-
town shipment, and he took the goods
home with him in the wagon that day.
He is now convinced that it is a good
thing to find out what the home deal
err can do for you before you spend
your money. You are not treating
yourself fairly unless you follow this
farmers example-unless you get
home figures. You can save by do
ing so. But if your home dealer
does no better than to meet the out
of-town competition-if he is able
only to give you quality for quality
and price for price-there is a sat
isfaction in dealing with home folks
that one does not find in the cold
steel methods of the big city institu-
tions, where the customer is mere
ly man and number in book and
where personality does not enter
into the transaction. And besides,
1T is worth something to be able to
to take the goods home with you in
the wagon the same day-(Copyrigh
