incnihe' s of the board of trustees
of the North Carolina Orthopae

earnest to raise funds to bui'd a
nospitil for tho care tf the crin
pled orphans of this Stat A
charter was granted to the insti
tution two years ago bnt on ac
count of the depressed financial'
conditions tlio work was ponpon
ed. However, since there is a
general revival of good business
everywhere an effort wi.l be
made to rait e the func's as soon
as possible 'o ereet the fir
buil.'ing. Two sites have been
offered by public-spirited citizens
for this institution.
A young woman has been em-
plo.ved and has started to work
losolictthe funds for building
this iiiM'.itutio'i which will re
quire about .iU.uiX).
The purpose of the ins-tv't'on is
to build a home for the crppled
or defy-med orphans o: North
Carolina, there being no provis
ions in the State for the cure or
treatment of this class of or
phans. In fact, there are only a
few places in thecountry where
such children can b treated, "tnd
out one south of Baltimore;
Tlirso children will 1 e treated
and cured if possible and given
onie suitable trade whereby
they can obtain a livelihood.
There will be a piy ward where
the cripples of Wnaltliy parents
can be treated also.
Tlio idea of the hospital origi
nated in the mind of Mr, U. B.
Biibingtop. of Gistpnin. N. C,
who will appicciate any dona
tions sent direct to him or j.iven
to the field agent.

List Narrowing Down.
The list of candidates has narrowed down to about a third of
the list starting, and some of the balance will eo this week un
less tney wake up to the fa-t t'-at this is a RE L contest and
not 11 game of parlor ping pong. If YOU cin't get SUB
SCRIPTIONS, or, .vhnt is the case of some, WON'T TRY To
GET RENEWALS AND NEW SUBSCRIPTIONS FOR THE
HERALD-if you don't cure to put voik ENEIiOY and whole
soul into the effort of GETTING SUBSCRIPTIONS and vols,
and o:c not, willing to give some, little time and attention to the
work, well, you imt tive place to those that CAN.
They Found l Easy.
V'e offered $L to any candidate hat would turn in Slu in sub.
cription bussicss last week, while $1 was given thoso that
turned in but S3 in business. We were surmised at the rer.ult 01
this offer, and subscriptions piled 111 all week. THE CAN
DIDATES -THAT HAD BEEN HANGING FIRE FOUND IT SO
EASY TO SKCUHB SUBSCRIPTIONS AND' RENEWALS
THAT MANY OF THEM ARE RIGHT IN THE RACE "WITH
BOTH FEET" and will put up a hard light lor these priz.-s.
which are
Prizes Of Merit.
When a factory gets 100,000 cars behind its orders, t'tere is
merit and want-ability to its product. When one out of every
three cars you meet on the road is an out put of one particular
factory, THERE IS VALUE FOR THE DOLLARS AND
SENSE SPENT IN THE SPENDING FOR IT. The Ford is a
car ANY MAN can operate without purchasing a bond for some
garage keeper every three weeks; a Ford will take you there and
bring you back; a Ford will do ALL THESE THINGS and then
some more. Mr. W. K. Mauney, of THE KINGS MOUNTAIN
GARAGE sells the Fords BECAUSE HE BELIEVES IN THEM.
He. has sold cars for years. He !'as more orders anO requests for
cars NOW than dealers of other makes get IN A WHOLE
SEASON, The mammoth S.ilo of Fords shows that other folks
bosidos the, Ford facU.y and the Ford agencies believe in thorn.
Besides selling Fords Mr. Mauney maintains a repair depart
ment Where all classes of cars are expenditiously repaired. Ho
is the most reasonable garage man in prices of any the Contest
Manager met between Canton, Ohio and Tallahassee, Fla, and
that is raking in some territory. His sale of "gas" is more of a
benefit to his trade than to himself, for the writer has found his
price per gallon the'etrual of. and in most every instance a cent
or ao LOWER than any garage here a bouts.
Music In The Air
There is a difference between NOISE and MUSIC. A kid
with a tin cau and a stick can make NOISE, and some pianos
show a similarity of musical taste, but The $330 fctarck Piano
The Herald in giving away IS ALL PIANO. We are notiiied by
tho Starck Piano Co.-thH the piano had been shipped from the
factory." It will BE ON DISPL A y BEFORE THE WEEK IS
OUT, WE HOPE. The 46ti.90 Ford 3 Passenger Auto is ON
DISPLAY AT THE KINGS MOUNXA1N GARAGE.
An Educational Feature. "
is tho. $50 Dranghon Business Collefrt! Scholarship given away,'
as the third prize. This scholarship includes shorthand and
typewriting, or a bookeeping, or a telegraphy- course. Here's
an opportunity ot a life time for some worth boy or girl to win a -year's
free educati jn.
AU Get Something
- In addition to tho three grand prizes, every candidate stick,
ing to the end, failing to win a grand prize, or a special cash
pr'ze, and turning in as little as $23 in cash subscription bus
iness, gets a casa commission on e very dollar ha (or she) turns
in.- ALL are GUARANTEED SOMETHING in Tlie Herald
