INCOMPREHE
EFFE
The following are extracts from ad-;
:
dresses delivered by J. Skottowe j
Wannamaker, president South Caro-,
lina Bankers' Association, at the annual
convention of the South Caro- j
i
lina Bankers' Association, at Tybee
Island, Georgia, on June 17, 1919.
We realize more fully than ever today
the truth of "for a thousand1
years in thy sight are but as yesterday."
Today we have a new world, a complete
change in every phase of human .
existence. One year ago 50,000,000
men were under arms and 150,000,000
others were engaged in war activities.
All of the industries and j
resources of our nation were con-1
verted unto mobilizing arms and the
production of munitions. The world's
interest was then centered into a
small line extending from the northern
coast line of Belgium to Switzerland,
a few hundred miles in length;
the destiny of freedom and liberty
hung in the balance. Today the banners
of Prussian militarism would be
waving over the rampants of all of
Europe. America would be engaged
in a desperate combat with Prussianism
to save America for democracy,
had not the Almighty in keeping with
his divine purpose brought America
forward at the crucial moment.
We should, of course, be truly hap
py and thankful that today peace nas
come. Let us, however, consider and
discuss some of the problems that
peace will bring.
America has saved the world for
democracy. In this short period America
has changed her swaddling clothes
to the garments of a king. Her duties
and responsibilities are increased
ten thousand fold. The future of the j
white race depends absolutely upon j
America. The destiny of Europe,
from every standpoint, is now in the
hands of America, and it can equally
be truthfully said that the future of
the world depends today upon America.
America must finance Europe. It
* is now absolutely the duty of America
to make the world a safe place to live
in. We can not shirk. The duties and
responsibilities of every loyal son of
America is increased a thousand fold.
It has been said that:
"Duty is a power which rises with
us in the morning, and goes to rest
with us at night. It is coextensive
with the action of our intelligence. It
is the shadow which cleaves to us go
where we will, and which leaves as
only when we leave the light of life."
History Begins Anew.
Statistics show that the world war
was the struggle of the a^es; that
unborn generations will view human
history as starting anew with this war.
It separates the old and new, and
ushers in a new world, a far better
"world. As an outgrowth ot the woria
War humanity will be upon a higher
plane.
The following figures were obtained
from the most reliable sources in
America, being the result of inquiries
sent to the heads of the national government,
heads of banking departments
of the leading banks of America.
The replies were compared and
checked, and no figures are used except
those shown to be correct and
accurate.

No Worms in a Healthy Child
Ail children troubled with worms have an unhealthy
color, which indicates poor blood, and as a
rule, there is more or less stomach disturbance.
IROVE'S TASTELESS chill TONIC given regularly
or two or three weeks will enrich the blood, imirove
the digestion, and act as a General Strengthening
Tonic to the whole system. Nature will then
hrow off or dispel the worms, and the Child will be
n perfect health. Pleasant to take. 60c per bottle.
