Out of an original wilderness, out of the primfval conditions of an undeveloped seetior, out of the wreck ot desolation of a coiossal war, w.have built here a lniutiful little city, tiirohbing and vibrating with industrial and commen-ial lite- Wi'h tbi? igfiie, ThtSta'e l)i-p.itch pre sents its Industrial ami Tlhistra.ed Edition of sixteen pages, filled with . .. - - . ..-.. - 1 JOHN E HART, Editor aud Business Manager. pictorial and historic matter, ex dressing the invincible enterprise and the restless energy of cur people. This edition contains a message to the outside world, proof of our pro gress and a record of our achieve ments, and at the Fame time a pre sentation of an indomitable citizen ship of which any community could feel justly proud, because the names presented are the builders of a Greater Burlingtou. It is a pan oramic view of the progress and pre teusions of the town, showing illus trations of great factories, banks and business blocks, views of churches, schools and handsome residences. It is not intended to be a char acteristic trade publication, it has a retaining value, but is a contribu tion to the history and literature of Burlington. The aim of this Edi tion is to give the widest possible publicity to the natural and acquired advantages by means of which such splendid results have been accom plished during recent years, in or der that these may attract the at tention of the alert and ambitious, and then join in the era of still greater development. The thres hold of which has only been reach ed. We are living in a pictorial age a growth of modern journal ism and the Dispatch endeavors to keep abreast of the advance of the times, although it has not yet cele brated its second anniversary, hence we feel proud of this Edition as it is one of the most elaborate publica tions ever issued in the State, but we are prouder of Burlington and her boundless resources and almost limitless opportunities; and in this issue we ask that you forget the Dispatch, forget the artistic beauty of its typography the neatness and Sy metry of its niake-op, and" only think of the subiect matter that we are discussing -th nk of Burlington, and what Burlinerton offers to the homeseeker, the in vestor.v '-- - The Dispatch wishes to thank all those whose generous cc-opera tion has made this Edition possible. They all recognized the invaluable medium of publicity to hearld to the world, the exceptional advantages that Burlington possesses, and with o a. . . ...i.- that spirit of liberality so commend able and so edifying they extend a welcome to the wide-awake and pro gressive to share jn the prosperous era of development already at hand. and which must continue until our brightest hopes are realized. POST MASTER J. ZED WALLER. There is perhaps no department of the United States Government which appeals more forcibly to our admiration and respect or which is under a more perfect system oi mana gement than the postal service. Its business in everv detail is in the m hands of able and responsible parties from the post master general at Washington to every member of the rank and file of his large aimy of assistants throughout the Union. From the handling . oi mails en-route and the utipresented service in the transportation of mails to the highest and vast convenience afforded the citizens of a town the mail service is svstematized to a m m st perfect degree. To be chos ea by the nation's chief executive t preside over this advanced state f affairs is no small tribute to the worth of the incumbent Not only must he stand well with his political party but must command the good will and respect of his follow citi- z us. J. Zeb Waller u now serving his third term as postmaster of Burling ton to the satisfaction of our people under his adminstration theR. F. D has been established which is a great boom to the county people and is an important factoi in creating closer trade relations, with remote points. Free mail delivery for Burlington is only a question of a few months. This means more employment for our citizens and a great convenience to tlif town. No man is better know in Alamance county than Mr. Waller always taking an active in terest in every move that would ad vance the material growth of Bur lington aud Alamance county. The peronel of the Post office i a? follows: J. Zeb Waller, Post Master, Susan A . Waller, Assistant, Maud V. Gunter, Chief Clerk, Swmnanoa L Patterson, Stamp and genera delivery clerk, John C. Jones, Night clerk, Lula V. May, Substitute clerk. The Burlingtou Po8toffice is in harge of an effici ent corps of clerks, and is the only office bet ween Greensboro and Dur ham, with night service. Lutheran Church In 1869 citizens off Burlington, thee Company Shops, pei'tioned the Lutheran Senate of. North Carolina i to establish & "mission; at that i place, and assist them in the support of a regular pastor. The Senate granted the request and made Rev. W. A. Julian pastor. A con gregation was immediately organized and received into the Senate 1869 -The first churcu building was erect ed 1879-80 and was didicated the fourth Sunday i ii A pril 1 8 80 by Revs. W. Kimball, G. D Bernheim now of Charlotte. It is worthy of note that this building was the first church building erected in Burliug ington with the exception of the old Union Church on the railroad property. The church property is on West Front Street, there being about two acres in the plot for which the congregation paid $175 orgin ally. It is now one of the most de sirable plots in the city, and when the new church shall have been com pleted, and including the parsonage and lot the property will be worth easily $25,000. The following are the pastors, Revs. W. A. Julian, o. Scneres, W. Kimball, J. S. Buck, C B. Miller, V. Y. Boozer, W. W. J. Ritchie and the Present pastor, C. B. Cox. The membership when organized was 15 from which it has grown to 170. The cangregation was still a mission when Rev. C. B. Cox became pastor six years ago. Since then the congregation has practically doubled and become a self supporting, is now erecting a handsome new brick and stone church edifice. Uycd 152 Years. Wm.
