president of the South Carolina Bank

issue of the Southern Banker, Atlanta,
Ca
Mr. Williamson declares that times
will be better only when and not I'M
til we make them better ourselves.
Every farmer" he asserts, must
work out his own problems and saliva
ton, and the quicker he realizes this
and that no one is going to do it for
him. the better off he will be. He Will
surely receive help and assistance, but
his future will be of his own making.

change his ways and adjust himself to

been done the adjustment will have
been made and we will at once have
