MISSIONARIES HERE.
Drs. Lander and Keid Spent Sun
day in Durham
Rev. Dr. J. M. Lander, Metho
dist missionary to Brazil, preached
at Trinity church Sunday morning.
Dr. Lander chose as his text the
12th verse of the 10th chapter of
Romans "For there is no differ
ence between the Jew and the
Greek," etc.
In the course of his sermon,. Dr.
Lander told of the work being done
in Brazil. The sermon was un.'ke
the majority of those delivered by
missionaries who have returned from
foreign fields, in that the mission
woik in Brazil was not stressed as
being more important than that of
China, Japan or Corea.
Rev. Dr. C. F. IteiJ, who is in
charge of Methodist missions in
Corea, was in Durham Sunday, but
on account of sickness was unable,
to be out at the services. Drs. Reid
and Lander stopped over here on
their way to the North Carolina
Conference at Fayetteville.
Now .Meet at Durham.
A new change of schedule went
into effect on the Southern Railway
Sunday. Passenger train No. 136,
which ha9 been arriving here at 3:10
p. ra., is now due at 4:45 p. m. No.
135, which has been leaving Dur
bam at 5:04 p. m , has been changed
to 4:45 o'clock. These two trains
now meet here, instead of at Ral
eigh. The afternoon train from Greens
boro was changed bo as to make
close connection with the Southern's
fast flyer. This train brings North
