A humorous turn has been given

This melon, grown on the line OF the

The Worst is Over.
Charlotte Chronicle.

Charlotte Chronicle.
The very comforting news comes
from Washington that in official cir
cles there the opinion prevails that
the financial and industrial situation
is now on the mend. Writing from
Washington under date of July 2Sth,
the usually well-posted correspon-
dent of the New York Journal of
Commerce says: ''News from New
York to-day with reference to the de-
cided improvement in the stock mar
ket was received here with extreme
satisfaction both by representatives
of important banking interests and
by government officials. The fall in
stock prices has bepI closely watched
here by both CLASSES OF observers, and
when the d. cline WAS at its worst the
fear was expressed in more than one
quarter that conditions would devel-
op as they did in 1907, one decline
lea ding to another until il condition
of panic was reached. It was pointed
out that though conditions are quite
different industrialIy from what they
were in 1907, the extended condition
of the banks is similar to that which
existed at the time, while on the 9TH
er hand, the Treasury Department is
in no position whatever to render aid.
To-day the opinion was expressed in
view of the developments of yesterday
that the worst of the summer had
been reached and while there might
not be complete recovery very soon
the trend would be upward" 1t de-
velops that the national Treasury
now has a working balance of $685.
431 ,S91, while the amount in nation
al banks to the credit of the Treas
Urer of the United States is 500, $780,
9O1. The deficit for the month now
amounts to S15,650,164, against
$19,2S4, ,907 for the corresponding
date year ago. There will be hard
ly any need for the issuance OF emer-
gency currency.

Unsung Heroes.
Salisbury Post.

Salisbury Post.
The world is full of unknown and
unsung heroes and heroines. They
have not achieved fame as fame goes
and are only in their little world. Yet
their hold on unheralded glory is
none the less secure. These are the
men and women who suffer and sac
rifice in silence-the unfortunate wife
and mother, perhaps, upon whom de-
wolves the support and the rearing OF
family; the one upon whom the
hand OF affiietion has been laid in a
hundred ways; the burden-bearers in
ing hearts with smile and song.
We are reminded OF this class by a
pathetic letter in Sundays Charlotte
Observer by Trojan Rev. j. C. Troy.
of Durham Here is a consecrated
man of God who has been bed-rid-
den, or at least physically afflicted,
for the better part of twenty years,
yet the burden of his messages
through the press has been good
cheer. He has not failed to caution
against sense of false security both
in things material aud spiritual but
the note that rises highest and clear.
est in all his writings breathes hope
and aspiration. Making passing
reference in the letter referred to, to
his recent confinement, Mr.. Troy
writes:
81 write the rambling remarks FROM
my bed | must do something For
r1n than civ yuao1yS rhnr1 a 10
foot has given me "A time in addition
to other complications. 1t is twice
as large as the other foot. The pain
has been fearful. Who can take that
foot for me? Iwould not give in to
another if could. 1t is my foot and
my uric acid and my rheumatism. l
am not proud of it at all but it is the
best | can do"
Surely no higher degree OF courage
is required of the hero OF the battle
field or the high ,eas than this 1t is
the sort of courage, the patient
resignation, the sublime faith that
things will right themselves that
possesses the countless thousands
who, i'll paths of obscurity, await
the lengthening of the shadows with
out murmur or protest. Certainly
such as these-the army of silent suf-
ferers-must be inspired by the senti-
| ment:
"He kindles for my profit purely
Affections glowing fiery brand,
And all His heaviest blows are surely
Inflicted by a Master-hand.
So l say, praying, as God will!
| And hope in Him and suffer still.'

To Pay a Debt to Bill Nye.

Charlotte Observer.
The Bill Nye Memorial committee
of the North Carolina Press Associa-
tion chose wisely and well, when a
building at the Stonewall Jackson
Training school was decided upon as
the form of the memorial. 1t is pre-
cisely such a choice as Nye himself
would have made. A lover of his
kind, he would rather that wayward
or friendless boys should receive bene-
fits in his name than that the state
lest shaft on earth should be erected.
Furnished and equipped the cottage
will cost five thousand dollars or
more, and the public is now asked to
contribute to its erection.
How many are there who have not
read Bill Nye with delight and a
tightening of lies burdens? He was
himself-no other could have written
his pages-a most human-hearted
and loyable man. We reckon hin
among the real benefactors OF hu
manity in his generation. His life
| all too sad in some repects, was part
ly spent in North Carolina, and hi
affection for and associations witt
this State were close Here, too, h
lies buried. The public's evidences O
willingness tocontribute toward an,
proper memorial have surpassed ex
pectations. Large numbers OF peopl

pose, will be glad to receive and az
