After devoting last week to crimi nal cases, court started in Monday on civil cases. The case of Lonnie C. Mims vs. the S. A. L. was begun Mon: day and the indications are . that it will take up nearly all week. Mims was mail clerk on the train which was wrecked between Wadesboro - and Lilesville about two years ago, fxA sustained injuries which, he claims, have incapacitated him to a considera ble extent. He is asking for $20,000 damages. Mims' doctors have testi fied that, as a result of his . injuries, he is unable to work, but the railroad also has medical testimony that he is able. In the general dislodgement of the contents of the mail car when the wreclc occurred, Mims was struck bv heavy articles. It will be remembered that Eli Bennett and two negro boys were accused of wrecking this train. ' ' Bennett was released on account of lack of evidence, but the two boys, ' who at first confessed that they help ed Bennett put a drawbar on the track and then retracted the confession, were tried and convicted of a misde meanor. The railroad is urging that it is not liable for damages because the train was wrecked, but the plain- , tiff charges that the wreck was caus ed by the bad condition of the track, for which the comoanv was responsi ble. It will be remembered that the engineer and fireman of the train were killed. r The cases of H. M. Crepps vs. Hat tie Crenps end of Annie E. Rainwater vs. K. Li Rainwater, both suits for divorce, were tried and the issues de cided in favor of the plaintiffs.

Maybe you have childran, maybe you have none. It makes little differ ence whether vou have or whether you haven't. You were once a child, and children will always be with us. We can get along with.poor roads and streets, and do without a great many necessities, but it is the duty of ev ery good citizen to assist in the edu cation of Our children. The boys and girls of todav are the men and wom en, the father and mothers of tomor row. You can nut off most things and defer most actions but you can't stop children from growing. No doubt Wadesboro has the poor est school accommodations of any town of its size in the state. Our present equipment was built to care for about 300 children. Now since the district has been enlarged, and our fathers and mothers are interested in educating their children, there are en rolled .600 children. . Everybody agrees that our Quarters are too small. Now what is the b2st thing to do? .Build some temporary fire traps like the one3 we have or build a modern school structure in keeping with the times and increas ing population. It will cost money, no one denies, but what thing of val ue does not cost money. It took mon ey to build streets, court house, jail, sewer lines, and water plants, but we did it. Now why can't we have a school building, somewhere in keeping with the growing demands of our chil dren: This question of jtal impor tance will be voted on May 3rd. Now just because vou are opposed to bonds don't, refuse to help those who can't helo themselves.- - . - The only way to build up a com munity 19 to piiiput the children, for iiicv are to take our places in a short while and vou ' know what a slim chance a boy or girl has nowadays without an education. In the last 3 vears we have had Red Cross drives, Polish Relief drives, Near East drives, Armenian drives. Methodist Centenary. Baptist 75 mil lions, Presbyterian millions and Epis copalian millions. Wadesboro meas ured up 100 per cent in every drive mentioned above. If we can send monev to different pzrts of the world and the United States to relieve and educate people, why can't we do a lit tle home mission work and build us a school worthy of our children ? For the sake of humanity and com ing generations give us a vote for schools arid better schools. A MOTHER. DESTRUCTIVE HAIL STORM.

NEW PROPOSALS OF GER- I MANY FAR BELOW DEMANDS ! Difference is cording, to 26 Billion Marks, Ac Berlin Proposals Not Public. Berlin, "April 25. (By the Associat ed Press.) The ultimate total indem nity which Germany agrees to pay the allies is 200,000,000,000 gold marks, as against 220,000,000,000 demanded by the allies in their Paris terms. This is positively stated by those close to the government, although the German counter-proposals have not been made public here. Dr. Simons, the foreign secretary, did not present the new proposals to the reichstag today because of an understanding with the German em bassy and for the additional reason that there is a paragraph in the note to President Harding suggesting that he feels free to query back for fur ther information or the elucidation of any point not clear, if he so- desires, before submitting the note to the en tente. ' Consequently, the German press and public, and even the party leaders, have not seen the counter proposals, and their publication is eagerly awaited. The Germans suggest making the annuities in the payment of the rep arations flexible, dependent upon the recovery of German industries. An international loan, is suggested, to be floated immediately, to place ready cash at the disposal of the entente, but no sum is named. Germany expresses her willingness to pledge the customs revenues as guarantees, and further offers to de liver manufactured articles to the al lies with the understanding that Germany will pay the producer and get credit on the indemnities. Ger many also offers immediate parti cipation in the work of restoration in the devasted areas; labor and ma terials to be supplied sby Germany and credited against (he indemni ties. . Germany's - counter - proposals are are so intrieate-nird ItrrolveclarrtTi? experts who have read them ex press the opinion that they may be misinterpreted, as the London offer was by persons who', did . analyie them carefully arid wonk out -the total amount that would have been yielded.

The local committee responsible for the re-appearance of Redpath's Chau tauqua, here ac;ain thi3 year, May 11th to the 16th, are sparing no ef forts to make the occasion a success. Hundreds who attended the Chau tauqua last season will recall the ex cellence of the programs, and remem ber with general satisfaction the pleasure experienced with each per formance. The Redpath management have long since realized that all per manent business is builded upon the principle of giving satisfaction in ev ery detail. They have kept this idea in mind throughout the years they have been before the public, and each season make it a rule to give some thing better than anything which has preceded. The program this season is entirely different from what was rendered last year, every speaker a hew face, bringing a new message. Every artist and performer different, each rendering something entirely new. Dunbar's White Hussars, a band Pand male chorus, clad in their gor geous costumes of white, will take the place of Kryl and his band. "It Pays to Advertise," which made such a hit with everybody, will be sup planted by that famous Broadway success, "Nothing But the Truth." Hundreds have paid two dollars and a half, the price of a season ticket to the Chautaqua, and railroad fare to Charlotte to see a play which did not compare in quality of performance and satisfaction given with what you may expect from "Nothing But the Truth." And - so on each cf th? numbers will be new, and each sur passing anything before offered. Season tickets which will sell fcr $2.50; children $1.38, and war tax, will go on sale Monday. As this is a community proposition, no one ex pecting to make any money out of it personally, it is hoped the public will cooperate in making the occasion a success, by buying their ticketsearlyA ana buerwiae helping in all the ways they can.
