Salisbury;-December 11, 1912 w A ' WORD WITH OUR SUB SCRIBERS. With thia wane of The Watch mam we have panted a label with the ubsoriber's dame and the date to which his subscription is paid . To lave space we hava uspd numerals for the month, day and year. Fcr instance. 4-1-12, means the fourth month, April, first day and 1912, and si on throughout each year. Some are more than a year behind acd unless they remit at an early date we will be obliged to mark them off our list, which would be con- trary" to our wishes and not very creditable to the subscriber. Of course any who are so disposed oan beat us out of the small amount due, but having extended a compliment by fndu'ging those in arrears, - we feel certain that there are very few who will fail to pay up-. The first of the year is now near at hanf, the time for setting all accounts, ana J he watchman will greatly appreciate the substantial assis tance our readers can render in this particular. witn tnis issue ihb watchman completes its eighth volume, new series, and its 80th year, old series and nextweek, it will step inti it . new year as -fresh and strong as . ever, with renewed efforts, high aspirations and a determination to be second to none in the State. We wish to add a lineo- - type machine to oar plant within the next few months, thernbv be ing enabled to give more and later news and to increase the size tf the sheet. This will be done wilb out any increase in the subscrip tion price, which should stimulate our friends up to the point of, pay icg their subscriptions and thus aid us in making the improve ments desired. With this addi tion to our mechanjcal equipment Thk Watchman expects to be the real thing and right on the spot each week with the goods. Join us. Many noted pencil pushers from all over the State are here today, and the "Doys" are seeing the lights at the Southern's big shops at Spencer this afternoon. They will be given an outing to Whit ney tomorrow eveniDg. After they see what Salisbury has they Will no doubt agree that "Salis bury's the place." Besides ex tending to one and all a most cor dial welcome, here's hoping the boys will have a galorious tim while in the city and are invited to make themselves at home in The Watchman shop. We note that Whitehead Kluttz, .Esq., who lent material aid and made personal effort for the success of the Democratic ticket j in general and Woodrow Wilionjin particular, . is a candi date for ambassador to Brazil, probably the most important post in South America. This is a po sition that we feel Mr. Kluttz can fill with credit and here's hop ing that his application will be favorably aoted upon. Ti Ueet In 6rubb Theatre The editors will hold their busi ness meetings in the Grubb Thea tre which was " kindly offered for their use by Mr. Grubb. The edi tors will probably hold only two meetings, one this morning and ne tomorrow morning. Any one wishing to attend these meeting? is cordially invited to do so.
