A matter of great im- J101 , , : sho portance in connection witn the care , of the cemetery is the manner in j T which the individual owners o: lots' pra keep them.

T ten A banker recently suggested to j wei the Ledger the possibilities attend- j not * ing the growth of Gaffney if the j T property holders of this twon should er ed form a building and loan association , asn which would lend money at 6 per j cent. There are hundreds of men j living in Gaffney who, if they could the borrow as much as $5,000 or more Am or nor ppnt would te?r down their llls* M . V v w?v. - - _ T present home and build finer dwellings. We believe half a million dollars a year would be invested in 1 boa building up Gaffney in this way j ^ alone if a man could get money at! 6 per cent. The excessive rate of ^ i W.. interest. allowed by law in this j pcj t State, together wit'll the trimmings ; an(j tacked -on by the money lenders' She make investment in real estate al- mai I ^ ^ most prohibitive. One cannot af- j * "v ithei ford to borrow money because it lot ; one takes all he can make, and some-1 wj1 times more, to pay the interest, | D. i therefore the borrower not only runs ber J p all ihe risk but does all the work ?* ! cek and all the urofits go to the lender.? j I sar: Gaffney Ledger. j mo1 The editor of The Herald and News mid has been talking with a banker in Xew- 1 goo berry along the same line. The matter I r ter< has been under consideration for someMrs time. This banker promises to take J)0r the lead in the organization of a purely mo building and loan association in Xew- ren berry. One that will lend money to those who desire to own their own L? ; her homes in preference to nny ether party j and that will lend it at he rate not ex- tjlr ceeding 6 per cent. fric The purpose of such an institution sur would be to encourage home owning..lile , I wo " vmnor mon I II SOII1K UlUUSl'iV/US) > wm-" iiiuii, .. iAv | 11111 is honest, desires a home of his own, ju:s it should be :he purpose of such an she institution to buy it outright for him ne) and encourage him to pay for it at i *se a low rate oi inerest wtih the money ls 1 . ., . . _ ; gri that 'ne wouia otnerwise pay in rem. i nQt In. connection with it, as human life is | We] always uncertain, he might take out j tha a life insurance policy so that in the ; us ' stri event of his death his family would i i we have a home unencumbered. Such a _ building and loan should be perpetual i w-n and permit anyone to take out stock no at any time. With the right man behind it such an institution would do a great deal to build up the community q and at the same time assis: deserving 1 att< men with small means to become home hoi owners. We hope to see the organiza-110 tion starred in Newberry at once. ^ "" 2 COMPLETES CAPTURE 2 OF MEXICAN SEAPORT! age 1 A I 1 (CONTINUED PROM PAGE 1.) ; Ru1 j 5 resistance to the American forces, J the gridually ceased its opposition today, j Coi Urged by Rear Admiral Fletcher, thej 6 f r began returning to its norm ill j boys and t\v< ii government under its own olii- ; 7.
