"The situation is so unstable

"but President Joseph Kasavubu

"But they will have to do it

it will take quite a lot Of capital

He said the basic cause for the
Congo's turmoil was the failure
of the Belgians to educate men for
political leadership before setting
the country free to rule itself.
"Some of the Congolese leaders
have had only an elementary school
education" said Hartman. "And
they have had no experience in
running a government"
"The United Nations must help
in giving technical assistance in
setting up governmental machinery
and we should help to provide

This week dear readers, / have
become fascinated by odd flames
that have been given children Of
today. Years ago people named
their young ones from the Bible,
Presidents and national known
figures of that day; now the tables
have turned and with each genera
ton, the names get more difficult
to spell and pronounce. Some par
ents have sense of humor when
naming their offsprings, like the
mother whose last name was
Christmas and named her daugh-
ter merry" Everytime the child
had to give her name she became
the "butt of a joke"
Many times lads with wierd
names have had to defend monikers
by means of fisticuffs and the
blame should be laid on the par
ents, who brand these kids with
such Strange handles" The nick
name seems to be a fad that has
vanished. Our two Presidential
nominees carry the nicknames of
Dick and Jack, which are common
ly used in America, but such titles
as "Boo Boo" Money Man" and
"Foots" are passed and all for the
better.
In days past, if a youngster was
inclined to become baseball star,
he was called Babe" after the
famous star Babe Ruth. If he was
inclined unsteady, he was called
Duke" or Count" but / guess
doting mothers found out that
calling their sons by their idols
names didn't help the situation
any when the kids grew up.
The modern mothers make it
impossible for a child to pronounce
his own name until he has fin
ished his education and has a de-
gree before he can spell it. Imag-
inc the little farm boy who an
swers to the name of "Yuhudi,"
he has to be a Joe Louis to stay
in school or suffer humiliation
from his playmates. Visualize the
little girl whose family name is
Sharpe" and the thoughtless eld-
ers stick her with the name
"Rilly," or the Tate family naming
their son "Hesi." These are just
few of the ridiculous names that
I have heard recently that seems
to embarrass the ones who have
to tell others. Dear parents, think
of your child's humiliation when
he grows up and has to give his
name before a group of cruel gig
Cling kids. Don't disgrace him
with some name that he will have
to be ashamed to tell in his class
room. hope that l have saved

T. B. Fatherree, State Director
of the Farmers Home Administra-
ton with headquarters at Jack
son, announced a broadening of
his agency's loan program after
returning today from a training
meeting held at Biloxi, Mississip-
pi, September 1921.
Under recently revised regula-
tions of the agency, farmers who
have regular off-farm employment,
if otherwise eligible, may now OBJ
tain farm operating and develop
ment loans from the Farmers
Home Administration. Previously.
except in rural development coun-
ties, a farmer had to spend most
of his time farming in order to
qualify for loan. The new regula-
ton will go into effect October 1.
Experience gained in rural de-
velopment counties has shown tina.
many farmers who are regularly
employed off the farm can profit
ably use the Farmers Home Ad-
ministration's credit facilities to in
crease the farm portion of their
total income. The regulation which
previously has limited credit assist
ance to farmers who spend most
of their time farming prevented
some from obtaining the maximum
income from their farms and from
taking advantage of opportunities
for industrial and other off-farm
employment.
Other eligibility requirements re-
main unchanged. Applicants must
have sufficient farm experience
to carry on sound farm operations,
must need credit, be United States
citizens, and be unable to obtain
the needed financial assistance
from other sources. AS in the past,
credit will be extended only to
operators of farms which are fam
lily size or smaller. No loan will be
made unless a plan for the coming
years farming operations show
that income from the farm and
other sources will be large enough
to enable the farm family to have
a reasonable level Of living, pay
debts, and have an adequate re-
serve for emergencies.
Loan funds may be used to pay
farm operating costs, purchase
equipment and livestock, pay farm
development costs, and refinance
certain debts. The interest rate is
five percent. Repayment schedules
depend upon the purposes for
which funds are advanced and

The world should know our Christ
Shame will make a better world
For every race of life.
