■f The Mystery of an Old, Old * Love Affair | By HAROLD CARTER | ••• (*, lUV Wratvrn N»w»pap«r Union > MISS AMANItA listened stonily to her niece Mary's confession of tier engagement to the mini she hud met on her vacation at Bellmuir. Sympathetically, tx>, for the two old maiden ladles. Miss Amuudii und Miss Dorothy, were devoted to pretty Mary the chilli of their only brother, whom they had adopted when 4 he lay dying. But when Mary mentioned the name of Ralph Lester tin ominous look came over Miss Amanda's face. "And he says ids father knew you ; when yon were a girl. Aunt Amanda," ) pursued Mary, with all the innocent i confidence of twenty years. Ralph Ltstw in the city, received, a despairing little note from his fiancee the following day which he could neither understand nor fathom. The two old ladles realized Mary's sorrow and did their best to cheer her. front timid Miss Dorothy the girl learned the cause of Miss Amanda's hostility. Miss Amanda had once been , engaged to Ralphs father, Robert, j who luul been dead some years. And then, one afternoon, a fair, I curly haired young fellow rang the j belt at the old house dpor und Miss Amanda, coming to open it, found 1 her-elf looking Into the face of her ■ youthful sweetheart. Robert. ‘‘You are Mr. Lester," the old worn- j nn asked, pressing one hand against I
her throbbing heart. “Yes, and you must be Miss Aman- I <ln." answered the young man. “My I father often used to speak of you.” | “My niece is in the garden. Yon are at liberty to go to see her. You are at liberty to take her away, to , marry her. But let me tell you that, from the moment she becomes your wife, she shall never cross our threshold again or —” she hesitated. “I do not want to wrong you in my thoughts, Mr. Lester, but she shall never inherit a penny of my money.” The young man rose. “May I ask why. Miss Amanda?" he inquired. The memories of old days flushed the old maid's withered cheek. "Because,” she answered slowly, “your father was engageil to me. He left me a few weeks before the wedding day.” She started. Mary stood at the door. She had overheard all. She stood looking at Ralph, and ho saw on iter face that her love had never died. He started toward her. "Mary, are you going to let the shadow of the past generation prevent our happiness?" he asked. The girl went softly to her aunt and placed her hands upon her shoulders. “Aunt, are you going to ruin our lives because your own was ruined?” she asked. The old wbman's face was like a mask. “As his father did to mo, so • shall I do so him," she answered. “You can marry him—lull my anger will never be assuaged.'’ Mary turned away. "You see, Ralph, It is impossible,” she answered quietly. “Is there nothing can induce you to relent. Miss Amanda?" inquired Ralph Lester quietly. The old woman saw' how bravely he bore the shock, and the thought of his suffering added fuel to her ancient hatred. “Yes," she answered, "if Robert Lester sends me a message from the dead, explaining his actions, his cruel behavior to me, then I can forgive.” Through the door came little Dorothy, leaning upon a stick. She was holding a package in her hands. She crossed the floor to where her sister stood and kneeled down at her side. ‘‘Amanda —’’ she began. “It is useless to plead for him. Dorothy.” answered the old woman. “You know—who should know so well as you, when Robert Lester crime to woo you before he courted me?” "And you took him from me. Was that no wrong, Amanda?” pleaded her
sister. Miss Amanda frowned impatiently* “That is between you and me, Dorothy,” she answered. “If I have wronged you in that, you have never borne me hate for it. You do not know the meaning of a ruined life; nor a hot pillow wet with tears for a frustrated love.” Miss Dorothy rose to her feet, and her face was ashen pale. She held out the package toward her sister. Slowly, with trembling fingers, she unfastened the ribbon which bound it, and the scent of faded perfume dis- . fused itself through the room. j i "These letters explain all,” she said. f Miss Amanda uttered a gasp of , fear. There were half a dozen tin- ; opened letters, in faded ink. and the
handwriting of them, addressed to her, "'»s that of Robert Lester. "This is why,” said Miss Dorothy. iltL” 3ea '° US of yo "’ Amanda. I vour T “ haUCd " hl < » jours as wine is to water When Roberts letters came for you I hi. them away. And your own letters which you gave me to mail, i destroyed unopened. Now acquit Ilohpl .. and turn your anger upon me, Amanda.” The mask had fallen from Miss'
Amanda's face. Her eyes were wot with tears. “Let the past bury its dead, sister," she murmured. “I am glad you told me—told me at the last.” And the two old women wept in each other's arms. And Ralph Lester drew Mary's arm through his, and pressed his lips to hers.
(DIVERSIFIED FARMING VS. ONE CROP GAMBLING \Oricultural Director of the American Bankers Association Tells of Efforts to Solve Farmers’ Problems. One of the leading problems that io confronting many of our states is that of diversified farming, says I). H. Otis, Agricultural Director of the American Bankers’ Association. •'During the past year the Agricultural Commission of the association ha arranged for conferences in eight of the twelve Federal Reserve districts,” he says. "At these conferences we have tried to get in touch with the agricultural needs of the respective regions and advise with the bankers and others Interested as to what the banks might do to help in their solution. A resolution adopted in the Fifth District serves as an example of what Is seeded in maay sections: “ 'Encouragement of a proper system of diversified farming in which farmers will grow as far as practical all the food and feed crops necessary for feeding the family and livestock of the farm, and to keep on the farms the requisite kinds and amounts of livestock best to meet the economic needs of farming In this district.’ "The conference in the Ninth District emphasized strongly the need of greater diversification. The larmer who raises nothing but wheat is unwise. even foolish. He is one of the worst kinds of gamblers, one who gambles on the weather, on insects, on drought, and various other things that affect the quality of the product. The farmer who raises wheat and along with it the other crops and keeps a reasonable amount of livestock has something to fall back on when wheat Is plentiful and cheap. He is not putting all of his eggs in one basket. Diversification for Contentment “In many of the states the first step in diversified farming is to get the farmer to raise sufficient livestock to feed his own family. He needs to get a cow, sow and a couple of dozen chickens so that, his own needs can be supplied without going into debt at the store. Livestock used to furnish food for the family will frequently consume large amounts of feed that would otherwise go to waste. Livestock enables the family to set a better table and live under more healthful conditions. More work is furnished to the family, making possible larger family Income. If the farm family is producing enough to feed itself, there will be much more contentment and much less idle time in which to criticize the government. "The Agricultural Commission is doing all in its power to encourage a sane system of diversified farming. The subject is being discussed at various conferences, articles and editorials are being published tor the purpose of acquainting bankers with the importance of this work. Bankers Are Assisting “It is encouraging at these conferences to find that the bankers are incorporating the subject of diversified farming in their program and laying plans in every way possible to carry it out. To this end we have records of a number of banks who are putting up money to their farmers to purchase livestock. They are encouraging boys and girls to go into club work. | "For the coming year we hope to carry on this work in greater detail and as far as possible hold conferences with the officers and members of the agricultural committee in each of the respective states at the Agricultural College. We believe that in co-or-dinating this work with the college, we will reap the benefit of team effort. We are pleased with the hearty response we are receiving from tiie various colleges of agriculture and we believe that the opportunity is great for Influencing various communities in better types of farming and in improved methods of business management.”
Banker-Farmer Notes Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, banks and Chamber of Commerce at the beginning of 1923 mapped out a vigorous program for the promotion of agriculture in the county. Throughout the year they assisted in keeping the farm organizations functioning and distributed to them agricultural bulletins and information of interest. Tpey held rural community meetings and entertainments, exhibits of farm and home products, and advertised home products. One specific result was to induce a milk receiving station to locate in the vicinity, and during the first month $20,000 was paid the farmers for their milk. This marked the turning point in the farmer's business.
California bankers created an emergency fund of $1,000,000 at a meeting recently in San Francisco to combat the foot-and-mouth disease which has broken out in that State. The Federal and Slate governments each pay onehalf of the appraised value of the animals slaughtered, and the Stale government was not prepared to meet this unexpected expense. The bank- ' ,*rs agreed to supply the funds needed a loan to the Stale government. 1

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, TUESDAY, AUGUST 19, 1921.
STRAIGHT TALKS WITH AUNT EMMY ON PLAUSIBLE YOUNG MEN "Isn't it dreadful about poor Mrs. Fuller, Aunt Emmy l ” exclaimed Molly. "That company she bought those bonds in has failed and she has ; lost nearly every cent she bad.” "Do you know how it happened?" I asked Auut Emmy. "She got a letter from some socalled ‘investment house’ she kuew nothing about. She answered it. and they sent a plausible young man to her and ho persuaded her that the company be was selling bonds for was a seventh wonder. The carelessness of some peop* is really criminal. Mrs. Fuller might have gone to her bank, asked for reliable information und saved her money. Any bank has or can get the facts about business concerns show--1 ing their condition. Had she bought j bonds iu a company that the facts ; showed had been meeting its obliga j lions for years, had a good surplus , aud good business prospects, she would not be iu trouble today. In I stead, she took the word of that plausible man who was either de ceived himself, or who willfully de ' ceived her, or at least was not so much interested in protecting her as ;iu selling bonds to her. There is really very little excuse for the Mrs i Fullers of today because reliable information on financial matters may be hud so easily.” "If she only hadn't put so much money in those bonds!" commented ' sympathetic Molly. "That's another thing it is unwise to do,” replied Aunt Emmy. "It is ' always foolish to carry all your eggs iu one basket. Now if she hud put I only part of her money in those bonds . instead of all she had, she could have stood the loss. As it is there is no I telling what straits the poor little ■ woman has got herself into. Like every one else Mrs. Fuller was too greatly templed by the promise of a high rate of interest on her investment. Her extreme ignorance of finance coupled with the desire for high interest caused all her trouble. 'There are few things more dan gerous than thinking you can do something you know nothing about as well as somebody who knows all ' about it. How foolish that sounds ' just to say it! Mrs. Fuller may be able to go to the butcher and because of her judgment of cuts of meat, get the very best and most for her money but that is no sign that she can judge securities. Buying bonds is no different from buying meat. You simply must understand your subject. You must know how to select good bonds, and you must know when to sell and when to buy. The only way you can do this is to take the advice of some one whose business it is to study the bond market. Any bank large or small will gladly discuss investments with its depositors. When you have 1 learned enough to depend somewhat lon your own judgment make your owa decision as to what to buy,— then talk it over with your banker to make sure. Should he say, 'Don’t buy,’ abide by bis decision.” "Mrs. Fuller’s case has taught me a lesson, Aunty," said Molly, “I'll never take any chances like she did." —Anne B. Aymes.
THE REWARD Tite ind’vidusl banker should be much more than a mere lender of money, much more than a mere col lector of interest. More than any man in his community, he has the opportunity to guide the farmer along lines of safe progress and toward substantial achievement. The banker in an agricultural district must know agriculture if he is to loan money to farmers and upon agricultural secur 1 ity. In addition to thsft, the banker is in touch »• .h the activities of the business w< .d. He has correspond ent banks in the larger cities; he i must, of necessity for the protection of his own business, look beyond the | horizon of his immediate vicinity in order to foresee imminent changes in business conditions. The banker has I the opportunity to be the point of contact between the farmer and these I many other activities of the business world with which the farmer's bus! ness is so closely connected. The field is wide, the opportunity is great, the reward of confidence of one’s patrons and neighbors—gained by service in their behalf—is worth the effort.—Walter W. Head, President American Bankers Association. CO OPS SELL A BILLION’S WORTH | ' According to the 1920 census fig j ures, $721,983,039 worth of farm prodi nets was told through co operative j marketing associations. The greatest growth in cooperative marketing has come since that time, so that it is safe to assume that much more than a billion dollars worth of prod ucts are sold co-operatively at the present time. A general survey shows that the larger co-operatives in fruit are handling nearly $200,000, ■ 000 worth of business annually. The large scale milk co-operatives do a total business o£ about $150,000,000 annually, while the tobacco group is doing a combined business of more than $100,000,000 annually. The cotton group has also passed the SIOO, 000,000 mark.

MIND OF KID McCOY SNAPS (Continued From Page One) his checkered career, sat on the floor of his jail cell today and tore paper dolls. "What's the matter Kid?” queried a jailer, passing the cell and witness Ing the strange spectacle of the former fight champion sitting on the floor and intently tearing paper strips. McCoy looked up with what tile jailer described as a "kinda dumb" expression. “I'm only making mouse traps,” he replied. "Mouse traps?” "Well, 1 guess you'd call ’em rat traps. They have real rats in here believe me brother. But I'm coming out in the gym pretty soon. My trainer's calling me. Who’ve they got for my sparring partner today bo?” The kid rambled on. “Why. he can’t hit for sour apples. Now back in ” The jailer turned away. Ftv several days the newspapers have hinted that the "kid” would advance an insanity defense. His attorneys declared that such a plea would be offered. McCoy, however, has greeted friends with a cheery smile and a handshake, has daily repeated his sitting up'* exercises and, accordng to alienists hired by the state, ms shown no signs of insanity. oIndiana Republicans Go To Dawes Notification (United Press Service) Ii dianapolis, Aug.
