merly operated' a factory in the
eastern part of the city, along the
North Carolina railroad, but the plant
North Carol na railroad, but '.he, plant
was destroyed by fire a little over
two years ago. It is the contention
of the plaintiff that the fire was
caused by sparks from a passing en
gine. The company is suing to re
cover $40,000 damages. A verdict
will probably be rendered today.
Judge Daniels granted the motion
of counsel for the defendant for a
non-suit in the case of Walter H.
McLean vs. the Provident Savings

him, testiiied that the agent .who
procured his application told him
that his premiums would not increase
unt 1 he was 75 years of age, where
as at -the age of 50, after he had. paid
seventeen, premiums,' the rate was
raised from $15.88 to $10.99. - He is
suing to., recover the seventeen
premiums, with interest. The defense
contends that there was a provision
in the ; policy providing for- the in
crease that - Mr. McLean could, have
read it; that it was called to his at
tention, and he by paying premiums
ratified the contract;, and that If the
agent assured - him the premiums
would not increase, it was a person
al undertaking and not one made
on behalf of the company. The
case will be carried to the Supreme
court.
In the case: of C. W. Lee vs. the

The Benefits of a

The benefits accruing from a
savings account are manifold.
The interest received is the
smallest benefit produced. To
lay aside a "snug little sum
for a rainy day" is a com
mendable undertaking, and
certainly worth all the effort
any savings account ever re
quired, when the "rainy day
comes. But satisfying as
these benefits are, they have
not the merit that comes of
the training acquired in suc
cessfully conducting ar savings
account. To have learned the
principles of ; economy is to
have your, independence and
happiness assured. Such are
some of the great values of a,
savings account. This bank en
courages such accounts by.; pay

by an act of Congress a year ago and
the court could not be held until the
postoffice building was completed.

Clement presiding, a pleasing event
took place today, when Judge Boyd

bury and to the new Federal building
which has just been completed. The
address of welcome was made by
Hon. Theodore F. Klutzz, one of
Salisbury's distinguished lawyers.
There were also a number of short
speeches from other lawyers. Judge
Boyd responded in a most pleasing
manner.
