A great spiritual feast was enjoyed ! last night as the youngest church con gregation of the city met in what is ‘ to be their new home and worshipped • upon the virgin soil of what promises ’ to be A great factor in the religious * life of the community. * , After a praise meeting of some 20 - minutes, Rev.

A total of 445 license plates through early this morning had been issued to automobile owners of Cabarrus ( county from the Concord branch of the Carolina Motor Club at the Reid Mo- ( tor Company, according to Bruce Mc- Bride. This totnl compares about the same with the number of tags f which were issued during the cor re- • sponding time of last year. Through orders by R.'YY. Doughtqp. commissioner of revenue, personal checks cannot be accepted for the 1927 tags. This is not a ruling of the Carolina Motor Club which Mr. Me- 1 Bride desires to make clenr. All automobiles, according to the State law. must bear the new 1927 . tag after June 30th. Prior to this date it is a violation of the law to ; place new plates on curs. Motorists q are urged tfe-apply for their plates at onee andmvoid the eleventh hour , rush when hundreds will pack the loc dlf office for plates. ; ; EUBANKS BROTHERS RECEIVE MEMENTOS J OF LINDY’S VISIT - i i Local Young Men Have Prize , Souvenirs of Lindbergh’s Visit to Brussels—Sent to \ Them by Brother.

Furrtown Loses Hectic Tilt. Locke Mill. June 13. —Two walks, two errors, coupled with Smith's sin gle, was enough to defeat Furrtown when they hooked up with the pace setting Locke Mill elub. “Doodle Bug” Whittington was as wild as the proverbial March hare, and al though he was found for one bit bis wildness cost the game. The score was 4-1. Josnston “Chock" Irvin, high school flash, was hit rather freely but was invincible in the pinches. Furrtown’s lone tally came in the third frame, when with one dowu. G. Furr beat out an infield hit, «tqje second and scored on C. Furr’s sharp single to ceuter. As a result of this defeat Manager Furr of the Furrtown Beb eds announces a shake-up.
