. CHRISTIANA.. Everything seems to be work ing nicely here and we , have a very prosperous Sunday school. Harvest is over, oats is good, the wheat a half crop and cotton looks promising. The people are practicing economy in various ways and I think, if the coca cola dopes were entirely cut out and candy much reduced it would be better for our country and a strong saving in the line of sugar. Rev R h Brown and wife have returned from visits to their children and grandchildren at Faith, Salisbury and China Grove, and they claim to have received much of the very best and kindest treatment all round; and they sure feel good on their return home. Unkindness from children to their old parents must be a very sad thing, , Viola. 50,000 German Airplaor Workers go en Strike. i Paris, June 22. Fifty thou ! sand workers in the.

" oilier Glory to Durham! The Durham alderman should go up head. They have been le vying a tax for a sinking fund to retire bond issues and have kept the money sacred for that pur pose, it seems. "There is today in the sinking fund for the re tirement of various bond issues, " says a Durham news story, "over $151,000 more than will be needed to retire all of the non serial bonds sold by the city. Durham has a sinking fond o about half a million dollars, and a net bonded -" debt of about $ 66, ti ooo. Durham, therefore, has ac cumulated nearly enough money to pay off its bonded indebted ness. It is doubtful if another town or county in the State has done so well, Bond issues are freely voted and if provision is made for a sinking fund to pay off the bonds, it is very often the case that either the tar is not levied or if levied is used for some other purpose. The bonds fall due and other bonds are is sued to take their place, while the taxpayers go on bearing the interest burden exactly like the individual who renews the note every time it falls due and never makes any effort to accu mulate something to pay if off. No bonds should be voted un less the act providing for their issue contains a provision for a sinking fund to retire them. The levying of the tax for the sinking fund should not be made mandatory but it should be made a crime to use it for any other purpose than to pay off the bond issue for which it is levied, -Statesville Landmark. Cicrus Train Wrecked and Burned and More Tnan 60 Perish. As the result of the wreck of a circus train six miles west of Gary, Ind., early Saturday morning, at. least 62 persons were killed and it is believed the death list may go to 80, as the wreck caught fire and was burn ed and the exact number of dead uas not Deen determined, xne injured are listed to 179. A train carrying the Wallace Hagenbeck circus, composed ot four sleepers, five stock cars, 15 ilatcars and a caboose, pulled part way into a switch and stall ed there on account of a hot -box. The flagman went back on the main track and set fuses as a warning of danger, it is said. The circus tiain was in this pos ition when a tcoop train of emp ty cars struck the circus train in the rear, plowed into the sleep ers, reducing them to a pile of tangled steel and Umbers. Fire broke out in the circus train al most immediately, and when rescuers reached the scene the entire.wreckage was in flames. or For Indigestion.
