In less than three weeks the city of Phila-
deli^ia devdoped more than ^15,000,000, of
' new business. Maybe the golden key to the
return of prosperity has been ’located by the
Pennsylvanians. Anyway, here is what the
Twin City Sentinel has to say about it : Q
“Has Phildelphia found a key that ctm be
made to unlock the door to a revival of busi-
jness and employment? Can the plan which
brought about more than $15,000,000 of new
I business in that city in less than three weeks
be followed on a national basis through the
co-operation of other communities and thus
revive business on tremendous scale?

' An Airplane Tragedy
The tragic death of Bryan Sanborn and
Evelyn Sanborn near here Monday afternoon
was all the more exciting because of the
nature of the accident. It was the first time
a major crash in which lives were lost had
occurred within the confines ot Wilkes.
Finding of the charred bodies in the plane
wreckage made the tragedy seem more hor
rible than it is to find two dead in an auto
mobile wreck. It seemed sadder perhaps
when it was l ealized that the young man and
his sister, just 19 and 17 respectively, were
the victims.

disadvantages were enough to disqualify him
for success in a town so smart and critical, but
he had other handicaps more fundamental. He
wa.s too short and thickset to he impressive;
his - yes had a decided squint; alt.ygether he was
not at all the kind of a man who commanci.s re-
•specl before a crowd.
The principal business of the clever gentlemen
of that city was standing around the market
place, there to “hear or to tell some new thing."
They were the joke-makers and fashion-setters
of their era. As for investing in a new religion—
they had hundreds of religions, some new. some
fairly new. some old. but all entirely unused. A
fine appreciative atmosphere for the foreign vis
itor named Paul. Straight on he marched until
he reached Mars Hill. A few of the clever ones
gathered about. The critical moment had come.
Paul must say something, and no matter what he
said, it would be wrong. .Suppose he bad said:
“Good morning, gentlemen. I have something
new in the way of a religion which I'd like to ex
plain.” A boisterous laugh would have ended his
talk.
But Paul knew the psychology of the crowd.
“Men of Athens, I congratulate you on having
so many fine religions. I’ve traveled about quite
a bit and your assortment is larger and better
than I have seen anywhere else. I noticed that
you not only have altars erected to all the regul
ar gods and goddesses; you even have one dedi
cated to the Unknown God.
“Let me tell you an Interesting conlncldence,
gentlemen. This God whom you worship without
knowing his name, is the very God whom I repre
sent.”
Paul stopped short and voices called out de
manding that he go on. It appears later in the
narrative that after his talk was over “some
mocked', and others said, ‘We will hear thee
again of this matter’.”
It was not a complete victory such as his
Master had achieved at Jacob’s well; but the au
dience which had confronted Paul was hostile,
and bis initial success so cleverly won, that this
story deserves a place beside that of Jeeus. To
gether they help us to understand the great mys
