the Lesson-Sermon in all Chris
tian Science Churches and So
cieties on Sunday, February 22.
The Golden Text I Corinthians
2: 16. “Who hath known the
mind of the Lord, that he may
instruct him?”
Among the citations compris
ing the Lesson-Sermon were ihe
following from the Bible: “Let
all the earth fear the Lord: let
all the inhabitants of the world
stand in awe of him. For he
spake, and it was done; he com
manded, and it stood fast. The
counsel of the Lord standeth for
ever, the thoughts of his heart
to all generations” (Psalm 33:
8,9.11). And from “Science and
Health with Key to the Scrip
tures” by Mary Baker Eddy:
“Mind is the I AM. or infinity.
Allness is the measure of the in
finite, and nothing less can ex
press God” Page 336).

For years, Pontiac has led its field in many of the basic aspects of
motor car character.
It has been outstanding in appearance—with its distinctive Silver
Streak styling and beautiful bodies by Fisher. It has been consistently
praised for performance—based on smooth, powerful six and eight
cylinder engines. It has a record for long life and dependability
unsurpassed in the automotive industry.
And now, in the 1948 Pontiac, comes revealing proof of Pontiac’s
rmUtmming leadership. Not only is the new Pontiac far more beautiful
md luxurious—but it offers, as optional equipment on all models,
IM femous GM Hydra-Matic Drive! This mechanical masterpiece,
which eliminates the clutch pedal and makes shifting entirely auto
matic, is one of the greatest contributions to driving ease ami safety
in the history of the motor car. And Pontiac is the world’s lowest
priced car to make it available to the motoring public.
There are fifteen Pontiac models—each more beautiful and more
laaariotis than ever—and each an outstanding value. You arc cordially
Maed to see end inspect them today.
