ABOUT THE CREDIT FARMER

A few days ago while discussing
The Farm Bureau and the co-opela-
tive marketing of cotton with a
farmer, he added: '"The Plan is
good and in my~ opinion the only
one that will ever add more prof
its to the cotton producers pocket
book, but it does not solve the
problems of the man who needs
it most; that is, the man who is
tied to the credit merchant"
1t is our opinion that the credit
merchant is as anxious to change
the system as the farmer. In con
yersation with one a few days ago
he stated Thirty percent of my
credit customers don't pay their
debts one year out Of two. In order
to keep from going broke, | must
charge a good price on goods to
take care Of losses and overhead
expenses. 1t is hard for some to
live under this system, but on the
other hand it seems to be what
others want. know the system is
not right, personally, would love
for US all to keep on the cash basis.
hope the day for that is near at
hand"
This credit problem can be solved
for every farmers good aid the
good of others concerned. There
is way. Farmers and business
men must come together and es.
tabiish the farmers business organ
ization. the Mississippi State Farm
Bureau, and set up the Mississippi

But we shall meet again in heaven.
When we run lfe's rugged race.
Short her stay but how we miss her,
Stricken hearts alone can say.
When we see the little garments.
We miss her sweet face day by day.
She has gone TO rest asleep in jesus,
Blessed hope we will meet again,
And in heaven there'll be no parting
Well be free from care aud pain.

She will bid us welcome there. .

world power. Who does not remember
the Maine and Dewey at Manila? With
it our brave boys crossed the Atlantic
to preserve liberty and the World War,
and who will contend they did not do
women who followed and sustained this
flag in all our wars on land and sea
Under its folds we always fought for
liberty, for the distressed and down
trOdden; never for conquest or Oppres-
sion. 1t is now the oldest flag of the
greatest republic the world has ever
known. 1t is honored and respected in
every land and upon every sea. What
Ykwonder then that we should love to see
it here floating from this liberty pole
the voluntary gift of a loyal, liberty
loving people. 1t is our dearest and
fondest wish and hope that it will from
this time henceforth forever wave over
a land of peace and contentment; that
there will be no more wars with all
their horrors and awful sacrifices.
The world is now striving to recover
from the greatest war of all time
Other world powers are still stunned
and crippled from the awful shock and
sacrifice America is upon her feet and
fast recovering from the sacrifice she
made, though we, too, have our prob
lens and solution of which require a
high order Of courage and patriotism
Let us all earnestly strive to do, our
share in the reconstruction, to pay off
our war debt, and to pay the brave
men and women who bore the brunt of
the struggle here and over there, their
just due We can never fully pay
them that debt we owe, but we can
and will compensate them for their
losses in time, health and strength. To
those who gave their all, their lives
do no more than revere their memories
in gratitude for what they did for us,
and make suitable and just provision
for those who had claims on them. To
the Gold Star Mothers and other rela-
tives of those dear boys and girls we
owe all of the sympathy, Difference and
gratitude that spring from the heart of
every real American. We have yet
with us many of the brave boys in blue
of the great Civil War, though their
ranks are rapidly thinning. The Span
ish-American War veterans are now
past middle life. The citizen soldiers
Of the World War, who responded to
the call Of their country and won new
honors for the nation and the flag are
yet in their early yigor and manhood,
except those who were wounded or
stricken with disease. We are glad SO
many Of them are with us We wish

dren's children The fullest measure of
liberty can only be enjoyed by all
when the rights of all are respected.
Rights and obligations are equally CO.
existing and co-eXtensiye. Liberty reg
ulated by law is the only real liberty.
Let me give you some illustrations that
all will readily understands: As a free
man | have a right to move my body
and swing my arms, but the right to
freely swing my arm into space stops
where the end of my arm reaches to
my neighbours nose; there his right and
his liberty begins, and | am bound to
respect it, You have a right, you are
at liberty to run your automobile on
the public highway, but you have no
right to run into another person who is
exercising his right to walk or drive
on the same highway, and thereby un-
necessarily interfere with his exercise
of his rights For his rights are the
same as yours, and you are in duty
bound to respect them. The law pro-
tects you both in the enjoyment of
your rights, for only in that way can
you both enjoy liberty. If you wish
religious liberty, the right to worship
God according to the dictates of your
conscience, then you must accord to
others the same right.
Now for the flag that floats to the
breeze from this liberty pole. The star
spangled banner, the red, white and
blue How it thrills the heart of every
true, loyal, liberty loving American
citizen The emblem of our civil and
religious liberty; beneath its fair folds

strongest must obey Behold it with
pride and salute it with reverence. Ii
