It is more than probable that by the first of September practically norma! busi ness conditions in thin country win prevail. Belgium is putting up a terrific struggle to maintain iier integrity.

Kinston people may lest assured that they get the very lattst news in their own afternoon home paper before any outsiders can furnish it to them.
