ASSOCIATED PRESS I DISPATCHES VOLUME XXV NElffl APPROACH OF THE THIRD PERIOD OF DIG CAMPAIGN The Contending Candi dates far the Big Prizes Are Now Making Things Hum in the Battle. NIP ANDTUCK AFFAIR NOW Third Period Ends at Mid night Saturday Night- Vote on ' Subscriptions Count Mpre Now. Interest and determination hi The Tribune-Times campaign is at the boil in? point. As’these last few days -of the third period are rapidly pass ing into history and wit’ll the near approach of the fourth and Inst pe riod. contending candidates for the big prizes are making things hum in their battle for the winning votes. This. coupled with the apparently in creased enthusiasm of friends ami aup upnrters of the workers, should tend to see rapid increases in the nnmber of votes cast for the various contestants between now and the close of the pres ent third period which ends at mid night" next Saturday. Novembej- 14th. -. And ft is critically important that each one, contending for the big prizes should lie ranking as high ns possible when the campaign goes into the keep ing of the sealed ballot box during the hnal week and period of the campaign. Votes on subscriptions are' counting more up until that. time and the I points allowed toward the winning of the Ford coupe special prize are just twice as big before midnight of next Saturday. To get the winning votes by that hour will make the closing | week a fairly simple thing but a weaker ..position next Saturday night will p ace a barrier of no small pro liortions in front of the contestant Friends of candidates should bear in mind that the vision which has spurred their favorites on during the past weeks of t’iiis famous campaign hafi been a beautiful $2,110 Buick Bqougham waiting for an owner to claim it, a $l,OlO Studebaker Special- Six Duplex Phaeton anxious to serve its new driver, a $1,135 Hudson t-ftmeh ready to bring joy and pride to the heart of its owner, and a SO3B Chev rolet Sedan ail primed to furnish the means of many pleasant hours and miles of service. The recently there was added to this ’ure the announce ment that a brand new model Ford Coupe had also been added to the prize list that already totalled $lO,- 000 in automobires and cas’d, thus making it possible for some one to make a double winning in return for added circulation to The Tribune and i Times. To give your subscription 'to the candidate of your choice can \ mean the realization of those dreams which he or she hast striven so hard to tnakA. possible of reality. They will appreciate it and you will be happy in tile thought that you were one of those who vyere instrumental in making it possible foa your friend to own a beautiful high-powered mo tor car of hits own. In so doing you arc merely buy ing your money's worth on two real newspapers, the papers that can be called Cabarrus count y papers. Yon are not giving anything for which you do not get value received just as if you were laying in your winter's supply of coni. The favor 1 you are bestowing is to make it pos sible 'for a contestant im this cam paign to get the valuable votes which will be issued in connection with your investment in something that every home in Cabarrus county should have each day of she year. It is up to the. reader or new subscriber of The Tribune or Times to make it possible for hard working contestants to make the real driving tinish that seems nec essary for them to attain the goal they have been striving . for for the last nine weeks of this competition. It is a nip and tiyk affair right now and no one can afford to lose a single opportunity to better their ] standing among the competitors. Af ter midnight of next Saturday, the campaign will enter upon Us final week and it will not be -long before the winners of these five real automo biles will be reapihg the fruits of their labors of weeks passed. To the can didates we say that it is important to do well now and to their friends that they can' do everything that is necessary to make the difference be tween big and. smaller prizes in these closing days.
