BANK EXAMINER TALKS
' f Stiyii Conditions Improving ?Dep vdlj
* Aon of Only one Bank Will Los,. I
"There never was a tiine in the'
f ' history of South Carolina when Ciert,
, I was a greater need for the solid ous'
inrsg men of the State to keep their
' heads level and work together the
' help each other than at present,"
said State Bank Examiner James H.
Craig. If folks will only keep their
heads level an dwork together the(
financial situation will readjust it-1
self, is his firm conviction. Other anr.i
neighboring States have within the
past few months had scores of bank
failures and perhaps no State has had
fewer failures than South Carolina.
Conditions in this States have been
la.-gely thg same as in other cottongrowing
states
Mr. C alg thinks the worst is nowover,
as the banks and people have
an app eolation of real conditions
and tha! prospective borrowers ap-!
preciate that when some banks advise
that they are not making newloans
that does not mean trouble.|
Mr. Craig thinks the readjustment is
In sight and has great hopes of the
undertaking that Governor Cooper
an-1 former Governor Manning "nave
in mind with Mr. Baruch to bing
new money into the State on a strict-1
ly business basis.
Mr. Craig has been in the bank
examiner's department for seven |
years, first as assistant and now for.
three years in actual charge. Deflation,
as it is called, came all of aj
11^/lnn and f^llrn iT,>i nnn.Ab.. n n ,1
cuuucu cxiiu ivias , uuvi
his chief undertaking has been to,
keep things in good shape The record
of only three failures in a year's
time, in these times, is the highest
test of results. The most effective!
work of Mr. Craig has been in nurs-j
in g back to real life and usefulness
sick chickens. Sometimes this slck^
ness has been imaginary ? stage
fright, so speak?but after it has
been bv persuasion or even coercion!
that he has made some officials real-1
ize their obligations and rehabilitate
the banks. In son\e few instances
consolidations or cummunitv bank
help has been used, hut always the
central idea has been to keep the
banks going, serve the communities
and work things out- If only one
bank in the statp during the pasti
year does Mr. Craig think the depositors
will actually 4 lose deposits,
and with three hundred active and
going State banks, in these days of;
"deflation," that means much. What
it means more than anything else, J
perhaps, is careful nursing and the,
extension of optimism, because unless
there be crookedness the banks
of South Carolina, national as well
as State, ar^ In good shape. The
State banks now have actual resour-!
eee of about two hundred million |
dollars. This does not include the,
large national banking institutions, j
Craig visits every part of the
State and he is satisfied there is a
better understanking of real conditions
and that things will movp along
mor.^ normally because of this realiWIS

SNOW AND LIGHTNING.
They have been Khvins: curious!
weather over in Itobeson county, if |
reports are true. The Dillon Herald ,
says:
"Perhaps one of the most remark-!
able and phenonnnal snow storms'
occurring in the southern section of
North Carolina was witnessed at'
Bear Swamp, between Buie, N. C-,'
and Ilennert, N- C., last Sunday night. I
"Conductor Vann, running on A.l
C. L. No. 82 reports that there was|
one and one half inches of snow in,
this section when he passed through
early Sunday morning.
"It began to snow at about 9:30
p. m., and continued to do so until
about 1:30 a. ru. The storm was accompanied
by thunder and light-'
ning and those living near by say1
it was violent and furious. '
"The area covered was nearly a
mile in width and seemed to be confined
almost entirely to the swamp
section." |
For a thunder storm to be accompanied
by a big snow is something,
new under the sun?though it is not
recorded that the sun was shining,
or above at that time.
We suspect, however, that No. 82 (
was moving too fast on that Monday,
morning for Condurtor Vann to tell!
whether it was snow or hail that ]
covered the ground in the swamp, or
how long it had been falling. Per-haps
the following account from the
Charlotte Observer is nearer correct;
"Lumberton, Feb. 28?The heaviest
hail storm ever witnessed here-,
abouts visited several sections of
Robeson county early Sunday night.'
"The hail covered the ground to
a depth of six inches at Rennbrt and '
much of it was on the ground to-'
day according to reports reaching1
Lumberton. The hail storm was|
accompanied by an electrical storm ]
The worst damage wrought was to
tobacco plant beds."?Pee Dee Advocate.
The Robeson county snow storm
was mentioned in conversation a few(
day8 ago and a gentlemen present
said while he was working at the!
rillT>r.n* 5- ?-!- i?- ?

there was a heavy snow fall accom-:
panied by thunder and lightning, j
The atmosphere was warm when the
snow began to fall, but in a few minutes
there was a rapid fall in tho'
temperature, and shortly afterwards'
water began to freeze.

account of how she recovered her
strength, having realized that she was
actually losing her health:
"Health is the greatest thing in the
world, and when you feel that gradually
slipping away from you, you certainly sit
up and take notice. That is what 1 did
some time ago when 1 found myself in a
very nervous, run-down condition of
health. I was so tired and felt so lifeless
I could hardly go at all.
"I was just no account for work. I
would get a bucket of water and would
feel so weak I would have to set it down
