ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES VOLUME XXV If Yod Are Not In The Big Subscription Campaign Better Get In Right Now But Little Progress Has Been Made So Far by Some Contestants Who Have Entered Names. BIGGER VOTE OFFER ON NOW How Could You Spend Your Time More Profit able Than in Working In This Campaign? It is indeed puzzling to the cam paign management why so little prog ress) has been made by some contest ants, who have signified their desire to enter and compete for Hie many fine prizes offered by The Concord Tribune and Times by bringing in their nomination blanks and accept- A ing their receipt book. 1 Although the campaign department has several nominations entered, but few have shown their desire to win by turning in subscriptions. The time to secure your votes is now, while each subscription counts for so many more votes and also while the field is not being worked by so many contestants. The campaign department would in deed appreciate it very mui* if those who have not reported and who really intend to be active would signify their intensions by reporting at cam paign headquarters at their first op portunity. The names of those nominated will be published within a few days and it in to the interest of all those who intend being active to have as high a vote standing as possible. The higher your name is in the vote count, the more your friends will help you. Let's get busy at once and show our friends that we mean business. Surely there should be as many ac tive contestants as there are prizes. Surely the prizes are big enough to interest any of us. Taking all things into consideration, there are several live wires in Concord and vicinity who arc missing the opportunity of a life time. Just remember this one thing—all them* prizes will be awarded and (hat the biggest vote offerof ,tlie entire ~r,fmii}grd».fet ■.*«+*/mk.m'frv ik first- all-important period. There Wttt be absolutely no big vote at any time during the life of the campaign other than outlined in the beginning. How could anyone attend his time more profitably than in securing sub scriptions among his friends to The Tribune or Times, with a guarantee of at least 10 tier cent, of every dollar he collects in subscriptions and at the same time accumulating an enormous vote total toward these fine new motor cars to be awarded the hustlers in a very few weeks. Not only do contestants have fore most papers, but ones which contain the full Associated' Press news serv ice, embracing both national and in ternational news as well as all local happeilings. The Tribune and Times also contain truthful editorial com ments on all questions of the day, which are of great interest to all read ers. It is only necessary to read one is sue of these up-to-the-minute papers to realize that their aim and ambi tion is to serve the people of Concord and vicinity in the most able manner possible. Whjle it is true that the two pa pers already enjoy a large circulation, nevertheless this docs not satisfy them, nor will they be so until they reach each and every home in this section with their messages of progress and stories of opportuuites, yet untouched or undeveloped. ' Sruely it is a duty each citizen owes his family and himself to keep abreast of news and tidings which The Tribune and Times send forth. We can readily understand why contestants might have difficulty in i selling subscriptions to less popular papers, but we cannot understand why anyone would not consider it an honor and a privilege to boost and sell subscriptions to a paper that is at all times ready and anxious to boost the conditions of the community of which Concord is the hub.

Spokane, Wash., Sept. 11.—I/P)— Scenes akin to those that tparked the beginning of the armistice' that endedMhe World War were enacted at the surrender of General Robert E.

Everyone was shouting and yelling at the top of his voice, hugging each other, clap ping each other on the back, stinking hands, throwing cape, coffee cups canteens, onl muskets, anything at all that was movable, up in the air or at each other, just so they could give vent, to the world of emotion that had been pent up within them during four long years of harosnip and sorrow.” The actual surrender, Mr. Stormes -aid, did not take place at Appomat tox Court. House, but at Clover Hill, about three miles away. However, he declared, it did not actually euu the hostilities in that locality. “A short time after Lee had sur rendered, 1 was one of a detail of soldiers whit* was sent to» dig up some 137 graves that the Confed erates had made near the court house.” he said. “In those graves we found 1&7 Confederate cannon, and not one of those guns was spiked."

MOORESVILLE PREPARES FOR MEETING OF SYNOD One of Largest Bodies in Ule Whole Presbyterian Church Meets There Next October. Mooresville. Sept. 10.—Rev. R. A. White, D. D., pastor of the First Presbyterian church, furnishes the following information concerning the meeting of the Synod of North Caro lines : The Synod of North Carolina will meet in the First. Presbyterian church, Aloorcsviile, October 13. This is one of the largest bodies in whole Southern Presbyterian church. Along with the Synod of Virginia it is a larger body even than the general assembly, though as a rule not one half of the possible representation at tends. The territory covered is the whole of the state east of the moun tains. Some years ago thd mountain section was cut off to enter the new Synod of Appalachia. The representatives are * composed of all the ministers and an elder from each church. There are 292 ministers, 530 churches and more than 73,000 members. Thus the possible represen tation is 822, but no lnecting has ever been attended by as many as 400; about 300 is the average. It will probably go over that hero because we are in the center of a large Pres byterian population. Spurlock Returns to Lcnoir-Rhyne. Hickory, N. C..
