Business
Opportunities
Increasing
The field of business ofFers
more opportunities and chal
lenges than any other area of
human endeavor, Atty. Wil
liam T. Coleman, Jr., told the
graduating class of William
Penn Business Institute, Sun-
day.
Delivering the keynote ad
dress at the school’s com
mencement exercises held
at Bright Hope Baptist
Church, 12th and Oxford
Sts., he pointed oat that
most of t^ country’s “dis
tinguished” leaders are
representatives from the
field of commerce.
Terming America as still
“the land of opportunity,'
Coleman, an associate in the
law firm of Dilworth, Person,
Kalish and Green, told the
graduating class that “tech
nical know-how, a minimum
standard of conduct,an extra
flare of ability and a mighty
heart,” are necessary attri
bute for success.
President C. W. Maxwell oon-
ferred diplomas and certi
ficates upon St gradoates
representing seven divisions
from the Day aad iSvenlng
School.
In his charge to the class he
declared that “Crod and man
have at last seen fit that you
live in an era where there is an
Interest in opportunity and in
tegration.”
Such an interest is good.
Maxwell added, bnt he warn
ed the graduate to be mindful
of the fact th^t total oMnple-
tion of these desires Is not suc
cess in itself.
“It would be tra^c that with
integration and equality of op
portunity you would be hood
winked and not make broad Eco
nomic gains at the same time,”
he said.
Thelma Ferrell, a Junior ac
counting graduate, was student
speaker at the exercises, wbi«^
marked the first tfane in the
history of the iastitntion that
a female student ever held the
top honor spot.
During the ceremonies, the
school’s General Alimini Asso
ciation presented its Achieve
ment Award to Talmadge E.
Simpson, ’51, manager of the
Carver Homes, Portmouth, Va.
and owner of the Skyline Rest
aurant in that city. The award to
the "outstanding" m«nber of the
Association for 1994 was pre
sented by Samuel L. Hall, '51,
alimmi president, and last year’s
recipient of the citation.
Others who participated in
the exercises were yera Grant,
CaroljQi Morris, the Celestial
Choir, Ruth R. Jones, Howard
Pindell, and John Watson.
Those graduated were: Sales
and Business Administration:
Robert L. Ashby, Archie CJourt-

to his country and he apololzed
forgivness for their wrong-doing
for the bitterness in his own
heart. He called Dr. Buchman
“the only person effectively
answering destructive forces on
a world scale.”
THE ROMANCE OF SPICES
BY WEBB
>■ ihm
Mtt IPmpmlmr Splc^t
There’s a shaker of ground
black pepper on every dining
table. The United States con-
stunes about 35,000,000 pounds a
year. It is so familiar a spice,
that many people forget its fresh
and pungent flavor, Maiyr of our
favorite dishes depend on pepper
for verve and character.
A golden rarebit would be
bland without a sprinkling of
spicy pepper. Cream soups would
be pallid and uninteresting.
Scrambled eggs would be taste
less and dull. And chicken pie
would not attain its full majesty
without pepper’s sharpness.
J’epper, grown in India, is an
ancient and honorable spice. It
has influenced the
destinies of men
and nations for cen
turies. The nation
« that controls the
J# / pepper market con-
H i trolS the world!
^ R Columbus discov
ered Amei^ica be
cause he was searching for a
sea route to India. Vasco da
Gama wrested the pepper mar
ket from Genoa and Venice for
his native Portugal when he
sailed around the Cape of Crood
Hope.
In our own countryt history
is inseparably linked with the
spice. The great fortunes made
by the New England traders
were largely founded on the
spice trade. The pepper tax rep
resented five percent of young
America's total Income for about
fifty years!
The United States, in its early
years, wedged its way into the
Dutch monopoly of pepper. To
day, we are the world center of
the spice trade.
The next time you savor the
piquant flavor of fresh Uack
pepper, remember that you are
not only using the world’s most
popular spice, you are using one
ot the world's oldest, most re
spected and most romantic soa-
sor.ings>

flO-
A midwestem doctor recently prescribed a tonic a tnOUM
patient, then recommended, as supplenr.entary meUci^;a Mpjr o(
Norman Vincent Peale'r “The Power of Positive ThlnkSng.” ,
other doctor prescribed frequent readings of certain chapioi non .
the same book, which offered rules for overcoming-chronic fstigud
and Irritability. Tliese cases are not tmique. ^ i
Just what is “The Power of Positive Thinking," and why do ;
doctors prescribe it? For one.thing, it is a scientific approach to 1
a better, healthier, and happier
lifeV based on practical,'down-to-
earth religious faith. It explains
how faith, positively applied,
hdps solve life’s everyday prob
lems; the wording habit, in
ability to relax, lack of energy,
failure to get along with people,
emotionally induced physical
illnesses and fears of many
Icincb. The case histories drawn
fronT Dr. Peale’s own tremen
dous fllA, and the actual ex-
periences of medical doctor^
prove that the author’s "pre
scriptions” work.
The i^enomenal popularity of
Dr. Peale's book is making pub
lishing history. In less than two
years, it has sold 750,000 copies,
and may reach S mUlion by
Christmas. It has topped the
'jest-seller lists for 92 consecu
tive weeks, with not a rival in
sight. It has made Dr. Peale,
already one of,the world's-most
noted ministers, the widest read
author in America today.
With the bible selling vigor
ously in many editions, and with
Norman Vincent Peale
books of religious and inspira
tional content attracting new
millions of readers, it is evident
that Americans are turning, to
religion in greater numbers than
ever before in our History.
