SAVINGS SHOW THE NATION
is THRIFTY


According to report issued by the comp.
troller of the currency, returns from more
than 600 savings banks for the year ending June
80, last show that savings deposits in the east
ern states increased from $3,o25, 900, 900 to
1924 100000. This is a net increase of
$3.50, 100000.
Thrifty fasteners, in spite of employment
deflation, not only kept their savings, but
added to them
1t is evident that there has been much less
actual want than figures on unemployment pub
lished from time to time have suggested These
figures have been far from accurate, because
they have included absentees from regular pay
rolls, but have not indicated employment Sc
cured in other ways. No account has been
taken of the army men engaged in the con-
struction work of the country, those who re-
turned to the farms and those who, like many
miners, farm when they are not working at
their trade.

Some people look on fairs simply from the
amusement standpoint, and while this has its
attractions and adds to their drawing power,
yet they would hardly be worth while unless
they had an educational side well.
Anyone studying community, county and
state fairs will find out that while great num-
bers are drawn out of simple curiosity and to
have good time, there are many woh
take them seriously and attend them in order
to get information to be used later in the home,
on the farm or at the store or factory. fair
shows up the community few things do. 1t
reflects the life of the people in many ways.
The development of the community fair in
recent years is of the best signs that at least
real community spirit has awakened in the
country and small towns. One of the most
hopeful signs for the agricultural life of JEFF
ferson county is seen in the multiplication of
community fairs. Seven were held during this
year and there will be ten more next fall.
Out of the community fairs will come county
fairs. It's the natural order of evolution, for
when communities see what they can do they
are anxious to come in competition with other
neighborhoods. 1t brings about a friendly
rivalry which is helpful in every way 1t stinu-
lates home well farm industry. The
women compete in fancy work and preserving
and canning, while the men strive to Guido one
another in farm products; and the boys, and
even the girls, in poultry, pig and calf clubs.
Recently through the vision of the lamented
Fred Jones, Sumter county made up its mind
to have county fair. At his death others took
up the torch and carried out his plans in such
a way as to astonish themselves and to open
the eyes of experts in the fair game, for Pres
ident R. A. Brown and Secretary jim Dent
of the Alabama State Fair association, ran
down by special request to look it over, and
both were enthusiastic in praise of the show
ing made
1t was courtesy which prompted
their enthusiasm. Jim Dent, an old hand at the
game, time and again during the day expressed
genuine surprise at the exhibits and the way
they were placed. He unhesitatingly said that
it was the best county fair which he had ever
attended, and he is of few words, and
as rule not overly enthusiastic He felt that
at last his hope Of organizing the county fairs
into state organization was the eve of be-
ing done, and SO on his return home an invi-
,tation to the dozen more presidents and sec
retaries to attend meeting here in the near
future was sent out
President Brown equally pleased, and in
his speech from the courthouse steps he con-
graduated heartily the Sumterites on their
showing and the possibilities of improving the
fair from year to year. He was simply

a wealthy sadder of Poughkeepsie, N. Y, will

lean Seamens Friend society and the Ameri-
can Bible society.
The saddler disowned his daughter, Mary,
and refused to be reconciled. When he died he
bequeathed $1OO,O 900 to his widow who, in turn,
willed the money to another daughter This
woman died in 1915, at rs years of age, but
time had not softened her heart toward the err
ring sister, who is now "a years old and will
be robbed of the inheritance by the relentless
spirit of her father, which has followed her all
her life.
In these days when sectional anmosities are
forgotten and southern and northern soldiers
sleep side by side under the Stars and Stripes
in France, the story Of the Bogardus family is
an echo of bitter past and strangely out of
keeping with modern times. People who
cherish hatred such as this have warped souls.
They do not make agreeable neighbors and they
are the poorest kind of relatives.

HE HAS NO COMPLAINT

81 have no complaint to make of the spirit
of Birmingham merchants as to handling arti-
cles made in Birmingham" said B. H. Harris
field, of the Birmingham Stove and Range
company. Give them what they want and of
intrinsic merit and they will handle the home
product.
But the home merchant is entitled to have
what he wants. Americans have made futile
effort at trade with South America because we
tried to make them take what we wanted them
to take rather than give them styles and pack
ages that they wished.
Birmingham is four-square and we find her
willing to take the home product when it is
right"

governor All over west Alabama one hears

struck more popular approval.

ing all factions unite on Judge Brandon for
governor. All the signs and portents point to
the fulfillment of The Age-Herald's wishes.
Persistent but inaudible reports to the effect
that Montgomery will have distinguished son

political events and to those who keep in touch
with public sentiment, it has been apparent
for sometime that Judge w. w. Brandon of
Tuscaloosa is the choice of vast majority of
the people for governor.
On last Wednesday The Birmingham Age
Herald, one of the states greatest newspapers,
declared editorially in favor of Brandon.
Judge Brandon will be nominated next year
in the democratic primaries. That he will give
the people the best administration of its af-
fairs is our belief, based an intimate &C.
quantance and association with him for num-
Der of years.
The people are going to name the next gov
ernor and Brandon is the man.

wives and children, and guaranteed growing
generations of healthier and more effective
Americans. Abolished public drinking almost
entirely, cleared the highways of offensive
drunkards. Enlarged trade in useful merchan-
disc. Improved labor, efficiency. Increased
savings accounts. Augmented school attend
ance and college maltriculations by thousands
previously prevented because of drink in their
homes. Disbanded many vicious clubs and as
sociations for dissipation and substituted pat

The Age-Herald recently said editorially about
Judge W. W. Brandon for governor said Capt
T. S. Smith yesterday, "Put l want to go
further and say that l believe he is to be the
next governor of Alabama without opposition
For many years have been interested in
local politics, and my opinion is that even if
Judge Brandon had opposition for governor he
would get 80 per cent of the votes in Jeffer-
son county.
'Since his election would be so nearly unani-
nous, it would be better to allow him to devote
his time to a study of the peoples needs than
to the making of a campaign against someone
who had no chance of election. The Tusca-
loosa man fills the bill in every way He comes
from some of the best stock in Alabama His
father used to be my pastor and his mother
was one of the most estimable women have
ever known. Though l am not prophet or
son of prophet, my prediction is that Ala
bama's next governor is to be elected without

With joke and song and ribald cry,

Deep-trodded in the rain-sosked grass,
The dreamless, accomplishing dust
Will glow to hear our footsteps pass.
