I i.BIBLE THOUGHT
I^—FOR TODAY—
| Bible Thoughts memorized. wiQ prove e 1
| priceless heritage in after years. |
A WISE THOUGHT:—Let us search
and try our ways, and turn again to the
Lord.—Lamentations 3 :40.
A BRIGHT FUTURE.
In presenting this fair and industrial
edition of The Tribune and Times, the
management believes that the people of
Concord. Kannapolis and Cabarrus, al
though having a good general idea of the
many practical achievements of the last
feyt years, will, obtain a fuller compre
hension of what n magnificent record of
accomplishment is to the credit of this
fine section of the Piedmont district.
We wish to thank the many public
spirited citizens who have eo-operatet|
with us and whose support in the form
of advertising, and of many special ar
ticles have made the edition possible.
From cover to cover these pages show
what Concord and Cabarrus have ac
complished in a material way in the last
few years. Our agricultural resources:
our manufacturing aud our wholesale
and retail trade, have been developed
aud extended tn away which has put
Cabarrus in the very forefront of the
prosperous counties of North Carolina. A
fine record of worthwhile achievement has
resulted. The biographical sketches of
our business men. show what industry
and determination will accomplish under
proper conditions. In scores of eases the
record reveals how men starting with no
capital but with the ambition to suc
ceed in their chosen lines of endeavor,
have succeeded in a substantial way. Tt
does them credit, all the more so. be
cause as they prospered themselves they
felt properly appreciative towards Cabar
rus and Concord, the field of their suc
cess, and dealt liberally and generously
towards their home city and county.
No better example of the fine spirit of
co-operation could be found than the
Cabarrus County Fair Association, where
almost over night a sum of $40,000 was
raised 1 to provide an up-to-date fair
grounds. Every dollar came from the
people of Concord with the exception
of one share subscribed by a business |
man in a ueighboring city. The money
was raised because the people of Coo
cord believed that a eountv fair -vould
be beneficial in computing the good rcla- |
tions which exist between the farmer and
the Business interests. The people of ,
Concord appreciate that the farmers have
given loj a' l support to our bns ; ncss in- :
terests. and in their turn they wish to
show in a practical, broad way. that :
they are her" to serve. Hence the fair.
II le firs! step in a policy o f enronr-1
aging diversification in farming partic
ularly with regard to increasing the num
ber of livestock in the county and im
proving its quality. Many special arti
cles in this edition deal with the benefits
of more livestock ami less cotton. They
are worthy of the consideration of every
resident of the county. Great as Cabar
rus is. we are but on the threshold of an
era of development Which will make the
accomplishments of the past ten years
pale into insignificance. The agricultur
al resources of Cabarrus have been bare
ly scratched, and as agriculture is the
basic foundation of our prosperity, it
follows that as our farmers prosper and
develop. Concord and the other trading
centers of the county will prosper 4 pro
portionately. Concord owes much of its
contentment and success to the realiza
tion of its business men that the farmer
must prosper first in order that those
with whom the formers deal may pros
per also. It is an obvious economic ax
iom, but. many trading center# fail to
■grasp its truth. Not so in Concord, how
■ever. The fair alone would prove that
■ Concord was alive and working in a
■ broad way for the fntare. /
■ Our textile industry has expanded in a
■ most important way during the lust few
■years, until today the products of the
■Cabarrus county mills are sold the world
Wover and Cabarrus in now synonymous
high quality in textile production.
■Bere again the reciprocal spirit is re
.Wßected. The ifiiU owners have go tie to
Bmß •
Hwl
great expense and trouble to provide
j ideal working conditions. How different j
, is the lot of the textile employe in Oa
j harms compared with the same worker
[in New England. Model homes, modern,
' sanitary, convenient to work, with gar
dens, and all the benefits of country life,
and at the same time the convenience of
an up-to-date city, are at the service of
the textile workers of Cabarrus. The
mills have prospered in Cabarrus, but
they have not forgotten the loyal em
ployes who have contributed to their
success. Those who may have doubts
on this point are urged to inspect work
ing conditions aud the mill vilages of
Wiscasset and Kannapolis, and become
convinced.
Concord people have a high standard
of home and public life. Men and xvom
en who are broad guaged and liberal in
their business relations invariably follow
the same policy in their other interests.
As a result of this condition Concord is
a well and economically governed city
well paved and well policed and with un
usually good educational and religion a
facilities. The homes of its people are
models in appearance, and happily there
has been an entire absence of boom con
ditions. with the result that rents are
moderate in Concord in comparison with
most cities where equally prosperous bus
iness conditions prevail.
Concord has been well named a
“friendly" city, where the newcomer is
welcomed and made to feel at home.
The future looks bright for Concord
and Cabarrus. 4Ve have everything in
a material way we could desire. Our fu
ture depends entirely upon the way in
which we set about taking advantage of
our oportnuities. Judging by past re
sults, our growth will be rapid and sub
stantial. especially if the fine spirit of
co-operation and good fellowship now ex
isting is eneonraged.
PRESBYTERIANS GATHER IN
BURLINGTON FOR CONVENTION
Burlington and Graham An* Joint
Hosts to Synod.
Burlington. Oct. o.—Presbyterian
ministers and elders have been pouring
in on every train this afternoon to at
tend the opening session of the synod of
North Carolina. It is estimated that at
least 300 will be enrolled. The Twin
towns of Burlington and Graham have
risen with splendid hospitality to the
occasion and the contort of all the
guests is amply provided for.
In the new church hut. which is a
wonder of architeoturial beauty and
convenience, the delegates were enrolled
and assigned to their homes and a
sumptuous sapper served from ti to 8
o'clock. Synod was opened with de
votional services in the presence of a
great congregation conducted by the re
tiring moderator. I>r. E. D. Brown, of
China Grove, assisted by Dr. F.
Myers, of Greensboro: Dr. \Y. It. Pot
ter. Burlington, and Rev. E. N. Cald
well. of Graham.
The singing of both choir and con
gregation wns inspiring,
and the moderator preached a great,
soul-moving aud timely sermon on the
text: “If the foundations be destroyed
what can the righteous do? The Lord
is in His temple. His throne is in the
heaven."
Modernism is rampant, the faith of
many unsettled. The modernist is a
man who has no settled conviction about
anything except that the limn who has
any convictions is narrow.
“He is ever hearing, yet never coining
to a knowledge of the truth. Our
foundations are being assaulted. There
is an insidious campaign against the
integrity and authority of the Word of
God in pulpit and college and theological
seminary- The Christian home is being
disrupted. M’hen God started His
church. He began it in a home. It has
come to such a pass today that when a
couple live quietly together, and rear
their children piously, they arc laughed
at as out of date. We have degraded
marriage into a mere partnership to be
dissolved at the caprice of either party.
The Sabbath is desecrated to tnisiuess
and pleasure. Our t’hris* is attacked in
his person and work as merely a ‘good
man.’ Was His mission merely to be a
great teacher and beautiful model? Or
as lie said himself, ‘To seew and save
the lost.’
All these foundations are attacked
what then? The answer is "Jehovah
is in His Temple. His Throne is in the
Hsuven." Trust in him. and build on
his foundations. Hold to your con
victions uinj fight for them against the
vacillating, fine-serving crowd.
'Hie preacher’s stirring appeals made
a deep impression.
Dr. J. H. Henderlite. of Gastonia,
and Rev, R- Murphy Williams, of
Greensboro, were nominated for
moderator o this meeting, the former
being elected by a close vote.
For the first time in the history of the
school of education of Boston College
women as well as men have been admit
ted this year.

COTTON CO-OPS PAY
24-50-CENTS AVERAGE
Filial Cheeks Are Sent to Members For
vLast Year’s Cotton.
Haleigh, Oct. !).—After considerable
delay, tile result of the necessity of a
final audit of the accounts of over 31,-
000 members, the North Carolina Cot
ton Growers Co-operative association
tonight announced its final settleaie it
for the cotton of 1022.
During the season the associiu'on
handled 132.842 bales of cotton, of
which 125.187 bales was short staple.
This final settlement covers the short
staple cotton and the average net pyiec
secured for the members of the asso
ciation is 24 1-2 cents a pound, or
2 1-2 cents above the average price at
which the cotton crop of 1022 was sold
on the open market.
A careful survey of the cotton mar
ket. at the various centers of the North
''aridiua cotton licit shows flint the
average price received for lie 1022 Frop
was 22 cents a 'pound. The association
had hlready advanced to its members
22 cents a pound and checks arc being
issued and mailed now the final pay
ment.
Speaking of the year's work. General
Manager Blalock said that naturally the
expense of operation was heavier for
the past season thru it would be the
oomiu# season, this being the experience
of other co-operative organizations,
parting without experience, with un
trained employes and the fact that
every department had to lx* built up
from the ground, he word necessarily
was more expensive than it will be from
this time forward.
Horde of Polecats Take Virginia Town.
Winchester. Va., Oct. 0.-—Business has
almost been blocked at Stephen City, a
thriving Frederick county town, eight
miles south of here, by the appearance
Sunday of a horde of skunks, or pole
cats. Where they came from in such
large numbers no one seems to know.
And how to get rid of them is a problem
that is harassing the town council, the
police force, the county hoard of health
and school trustees. The presence of
the pest has disrupted business, and U
is feared schools will have to be closed
up. Up to noon today no less than 60
of the animals had been killed but they
seemed to be so numerous especially in
the suburbs, that the attempted exter
mination has had little, effect upon their
numbers.
New Chapel Hill Baptist Church Open
Chapel Hill. Oct. I).—The new Bap
tist. church of Chapel Hill, which was
recently completed at a cost of $136.-
000. was formally opened Sunday with
three impressive services. Large dele
gations of Baptists from other towns
were in attendance.
Chewing gum is now exported by
American manufacturers to seventy-five
different countries scattered the world
over.
