It is freely predicted that the popu larity of The Tribune and The Times and the liberality of this offer w;ill make this campaign by far the most successful in the history of newspa pers in this part of North Carolina. No Red Tape. There will be no “strings” on this campaign. Red tape lias been abolished. The handsome motor cars, the wonderful cash awards will be awarded to the successful workers. Any resident of either sex, regardless of how long they have lived here ,is eligible unless they are • employees of The Tribune and The Times or belong to the immediate families of such employees. Correspondents living in suburban places are not considered employees and may become candi dates. Upon analyzing the offer you will find it amazingly liberal. So much so, in fact, that people will puzzle them selves all through the campaign, ask ing over and over the question, “How can they do it?” The ease with which even the largest awards may be won is sure to arouse interest with any persons bearing of the campaign and having any desire whatever to win a car for him jor herself. Prizes Are of First Magnitude. Any person outfit to be proud to own one of the beautiful cars to be given away. Certainly never before and probably never again will you have the opportunity thrust -upon you to* win a high-value motor car through a little spare-time effort on your part. That you can. use any at the sums of money offered to all other workers in the campaign is admitted. Cars and cash are our only prizes and any one can use either. Every body wins something. Application of spare time, careful planning and dili gent use of your ability can win the grand capital prize of your district for you. One of the beautiful cars is worth several years of prudent sav ing. Then it is worth all the spare time you can exert. There will be no blanks. Every active candidate who remains to the finish is abso lutely guaranteed to win a car or a cash prise. To become a candidate Is an easy matter. To win a big prize, or the biggest of all, is easy, too, especially to the early starter. Make use of your spare time and get ta car worth having. Elsewhere in this issue appears an . entry blank dr “Nomination Coupon." Killed Out and brought to the cam paign office of the Tribune and Times . or mailed to post office box 431, will start you in the race with 5,000 votes. Then a working outfit will be given you at once with full instructions. The first subscription you secure tor one year brings you 20,000 extra votes. Additional secured in tw<j , v The Concord Daily Tribune North Carolina’s Leading Small City Daily ~ credit, or by getting subscriptions, i both new and renewal, to The Tribune • or The Times among your friends. ' Votes are issued in large numbers for ■ each subscription payment, whether it ■ bo from a brand-new subscriber or i from a regular subscriber ejeteiuling ; or renewing his subscription. The votes are valued according to the length of the subscription. These ! votes diminish in value at stated pe ; nods through the campaign, and the ■ free coupon vote in the paper drops, I too, the declining vote schedule being ; a guarantee to the workers that their ■ | interests are being safeguarded and >' their early work made more effective. I No increase of votes will be made in • ahy department of the campaign, at - any time. Opportunities Equally Big. The location of your home makes ; no difference so far as your chances : of winning one of the mofor cars is . concerned. The distribution of the I cars and cash prizes has been ar > ranged in districts, so that candidates i living in remote places, removed from . Concord, can compete successfully, as i has been proved consistently in times • past where this method is used. Each candidate will have an equal oppor > tunity. This is positively guaran l teed. - * - Candidates living outside of Con - cord do not/ compete with candidates , living inside for the big cars, except . for first choice. That is all.. A - separate campaign is being conducted - in each of the three districts. The i highest candidate over all gets his or . her choice and so on down, according ■ to the rules and regulations. A full • set of prizes is guaranteed each dis trict, one or two of the cars and as . many cash prizes as there are separate i districts. A candidate is not held l within any bounds whatever in solicit t Ing subscriptions. They can work - anywhere, but their votes only com pete against their own district. Thus a candidate from Kannapolis, for ex j ample, could do some work in Con i cord, some in Kannapolis and in the , rural sections ‘anywhere and all of » their votes would be used to build . their standing in their district. d Campaign in Brief. 3 While the ordinary family saves f for several years to buy a small car 5 for cash or struggles along trying to i make payments on a car the; cannot i afford, a candidate in this campaign i can enter the race and by using a . little real diligence and effort can. win a car paid for and delivered in 1 a few jveeks. The campaign is go ,, ing to be brief and under no circum . stances will it be extended beyond the . date advertised. e At the close a committee of judges 3 selected from the advisory board. whose names will be published some time during the campaign, will count and tabulate the entirp vote totals, and those who poll the heaviest pote will be the ones who will glide away, in their motor palaces—their very l own luxurious machines. All the rest will receive cash sums in proportion to their vote totals, as explained in the announcement. The judges will make the awards. Their duty will be to compile all the votes in the ballot box, add them to the reserve votes held by the candidates and the pub lished vote in the paper at the close of the third period, and the result will be known. Thus, until the judges an nounce the winner, it will be impos sible to determine who wins the cars. But remember “Everybody Wins Something,” for this is our guaran tee. Candidates Can Help. Persons who have never taken part fit a voting campaign of this magni tude have no idea of how fast the votes accumulate. Once the start has been made and the friends begin their work of supporting their favorites, it becomes a genuine task in the cam paign department to compile all of the votes. Vote coupons count for some, subscriptions for a great deal, and those who feel that they will have to depend upon thir own efforts will be surprised how they get help from friends they little dreamed would as sist -them. It is not expected that the candi dates will depend wholly upon their | own efforts. Friends will Tielp them 1 gather votes and there is a great - “kick” to the campaign for the active 1 worker. Not only will friends gather - coupons and save them for you, they will hunt up likely prospects for aub -1 acrlpttons. There is one thought every (Mlndi * date should 1 get—the bigger yofir *f f fort the bigger your prize.
