Only Eleyen More Work
ing Days of the Big Con
test Remain.—Will You
Win Two Autos?
DON’T SLACKEN i
PACE FOR A MOMENT |
This Great Campaign Is!
Now the Talk of This
Entire Section.—Every
thing Is a]t Fever Heat.
Now that one-naif of the third pe
riod of Tho Tribune-Times automo
bile and cash campaign has passed
into history and but two short weeks
will! only eleven more working days
remain until the final close, contest
ants have actuaHy entered the home
stretch that, will no doubt witness a
sen-ationnl driving finish for | the
wonderful prizes that wily reward the
successful ones. Seemingly, the add- !
ed prize of the Ford (’oupe which is
to be contested for over iv period of
only three weeks, has spurred ambi
tious workers on toward greater ac
’cninplishments, with the possibility
of a double winning in the.way of*aif
t (mobiles.
To slacken the pace for even a day
or two can very easily sacrifice strong
standings for anyone while an increase
on' the part of practically any candi
date can menu added opportunity to
win one of the big pr : zes. With still
one more cut in votes bet weep now
and the end nnd that coming between
the third and the fourth and last pe
riod, makes that hour, midnight of .
Saturday, November 14, easily the
most important #f the few remaining
days. Weakness at that time will be
fatal. A good'lend then will have the
opposite effect upon the outcome.
Mary and more does the public seem
to bet-ouie vitally interested in the
v fortunes of favorite workers, which
only goes to show that this great
campaign of The Tribune and Times
has come to be the topie of the hour
in Concord and sumnjnding territory.
Now is the time for candidates to
-make that final drive for victory,
when the eyes of friends are upon
them. A is certainly no hardship 1
upon any one to give the pest, they
warning days of the campaign when
so mpeh is at stake to be won or lost.
One' should stop and consider that
there are five automobiles, with an
aggregate value of over $(1,500 wait
ing for their winners to clainf them.
There are three cash prizes of S2OO
each and three of SIOO each, to bo
awarded as second and third prizes in
each of the three districts. Then
there is the guarantee As ten per cent,
cash commission to be paid all active
non-prize winners.
(#nce more we call attention to the
method of casting business arid votes
in the last period of the campaign.
During that final week, ending No
vember 2i, at 10 o'clock p. m„ can
didates will Deposit all business in a
locked and sealed ballot box which
will be placed in the Cabarrus Sav
ings Bank. Not until the campaign
is actually closed will this box be
opened and the final business and all
votes of candidates eauvnssed, and
then it is 'to be done by the board of
counting judges which will be an
nounced the first of the c-oiping week.
And also remember that this com-'
ing week is the last one in which ex
tension votes count on the second pay
ment plan on 'subscriptions. In the
last period these subscriptions count
t only straight votes according to the
fourth period vote schedule, which is
tlie smallest of the entire campaign.
So. if someone is planning on giving
you a second year, a second and third,
or even bring their total time of sub
scribing up to five years, the time to
to comt the most is by mid
night. Saturday, November 14th.
That is the tijne to win your automo
biles. *

he was testing the work offered to a
laborer who had had an accident to I
his right hand, and who declared that

Institutions Not Broken

NOVEMBER GAME r
And Carolina Held Out j
For October So As Not
to Interfere With The!
Thanksgiving Game.
Raleigh. Nov. 7.— (A l )—The Univer-j
pity of North Carolina and State Col
lege will not meet in football n«*xt
jseason.
The announcement by State College j
officials here today came after it was j
j learned that athletic committees of j
tile two institutions at Durham failed !
to agree upon a date for the game. I
State College, it is understood, at j
the meeting maintained that the
game, generally played here during |
Fair Week, has come too early in the)
season, and held out for a date in
November, the game to alternate be- [
tween Kaleigh and Chapel Hill. Uni
versity authorities on the other hand,
argued that a State-CaroliuA game
during November would overshadow
the long standing Virginia-Carolina
game, and for this reason, it it stated,
refused to agree to the later date.
The committees are said to be hope
lessly deadlocked over the football
date, and State College ntiirials'con
sider the matter closed, and state that
Leach committee will proceed with the
completion of its sehedujes.
| While the committee from State
College insisted upon a Nbvember
date, it is understood they offered to
clear any date during November for
the game. The University representa
tives agreed to continue playing the j
game at Kaleigh in mid-October, and j
expresseed a willingness to sanction a
date for the game 10 days later, the
contest to alternate between Raleigh'
and Chapel Hill, bur steadfastly re-
to agree to a November date.
Failure of the two committees to
agree upon a football date does not
mean a break in athletic relations be
tween the two institutions, it was
stated. They will continue to meet in
other branches of sport: hut for next
season at least there will! be no foot
ball game.
It is announced at State College
that a game will be playede at Rid-
I dick Field during Fair Week next
fall, and negotiations for a game with
some other institutions are said to be
underway.

i METHODIST PROTESTANT
CONFERENCE AT HIGH POINT
Conference at High Point Hears Dr.
Lewis. President of General Con

High Point, Nov. 6.—Ministers and :
laymen here attending the North Car- j
olina annual conference. Methodist
Protestant Church, heard two short
addresses today, one by Dr. T. H.
LawiSr of Washington, president of
the general conference. «id 'the other
by. Dr. W. P. Few. president of Duke
University, Durham. These promi
nent educators spoke at the morning
session.
f Tonight's session was devoted to
t'/i* program, during which reports
| for the pear wtere made by Mrs.
‘ tV. C. Hammer, of Aghcbnro. presi
' dent of the North Carolina Home Mis-
I sionary Society, and Mbs. Minnie P.
; Harrell, of High Point, secretary of
| the North Carolina Foreign Mission
| ary Society. The reports were very
! satisfactory.
j The afternoon eonfereuee raommit
tee reports were heard. The report
lof the committee on superannuate
j caused much discussion. A strong j
appeal for better support for the
superannuates was made by Rev. J.
H. Morton, of Greensboro. The re
port was adopted.
The first address was delivered by
Dr. Lewis. It was the second of a
series of addresses on "The Minister
and His Own Soul." His subject
today was “The Energy of Love."
Dr. Lewis discussed love as the es
sence of Christianity and the link that
binds the minister to the people in
bringing about results n church work.
Love was declared to be a divine
angel and the energy that moves the
world. The speaker ox pressed the
supreme importance of the minister of
the gospel possessing this energy of
love, which should be the actual and 1
propelling force in all the work of tile
minister.
Work is Main Thing.
I Work was declared by Dr. Lewis
to be the chief result of love. He
| declared that the call to the min
i istry cannot be truly accepted with
| out an unconditional and immediate
' surrender of his time, his life an dhis
j all. Nothing but love could compel
j such a surrender Mid no power can
I be evident without the surrender.
I Closing his address,' Dr. Lewis ex
alted Pile quality of love by declar
ing that the many waters of the
catch cannot quench love; neither
can the floods of the earth drown
it.
Dr. Few spoke on religion and edit- j
cation. Dr. Few came to the con- !
ference as fraternal messenger of the
North Carolina conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Churbli, South.
I The president of Duke University
spoke of the tendency of latter years
to break down the barrier which sep
arates Methodists in the nation, and
then proceeded to discuss the advant-1
ages of Co-op'eratlon between branches
of Methodism now existing. He as
serted that co-operation pays in busi
ness. in education, in religion and ev
erywhere.
Dr. Few pointed out that this ideal
I must include that reverence which,
born out of a sense of infinitude and
I a realization of t'iie ministry of earthly
, things links thorn over all. The rich
est. fullest and oompletest life is the
great ideal to be sought by the people
. of North Carolina, Dr. Few said in
conclusion.
Broadside at Agnosticism.
The conference tired .a broadside
- into the ranks of the present day ag
-1 nosticism. when it adopted the report
? of education and literature, read by
- Prof. P. S. kenneth, of High Point
