Friday, March 8, 1929. THE PILOT, a Paper With Character. Vass. North Carolina Bible Study, Inspired By Dr. Rader, Is Started Here Frank Buchan President of Ba- raca Class for Men to Meet Sunday at Baptist Church When Dr. Rader addressed the Ki- wanis club a few weeks ago he stag ed something that Frank Buchan has brougrht to a materialization. Frank was impressed with Dr. Rader’s ap preciation of the Bible, and conclud ed that the grown up men of Southern Pines ought to know more about the old book, and recently Frank fell in with the pastor of the Baptist church and suggested a men’s Bible class. The clergyman assented, and out of it came a galhering at the church and the formation of the class, and the president of the class is Frank Buch an. W. S. Coursey was elected secre tary and treasurer, and last Sunday a meeting was held at 10:00 o’clock in the morning a. the church, and or-j ganization effected. It was decided to organize as a Baraca class, which means that is affiliated with an or ganization of that name which is not confined to any one Military, Polo Pony, Hunter Classes to Feature Horse Show Premium List for Twelfth An nual Competition of Pine- hurst Club Is Out.

To Invite Dr. Rader Much interest has been shown by those who constitute the material from which such a class is to be re cruited, and one of the means for putting the class on its feet is a scheme to bring Dr. Rader down some Sunday to conduct the class be cause he was the inciting cause of its organization. It has also been sug gested to bring the Kiwanis club to the meeting whenever the members are disposed that way as the Kiwanis club is the agency that brought Dr. Rader into the field and thus awak ened the idea. Also, because a num ber of the Sandhills Sixteen are of •Sunday school age in this class it is proposed ;o have a vacant chair for iht' membership of that body when they feel in the mood to join in the • xercises or to look on. It appears that a rather ambitious program has iieen laid down, bui Frank Buchan has a lot of admiring friends, and all the signs say his Bible class is uf CO a good start, with a fine field in which to work.

It was distinctly a new problem, for here was a car with quicker acceleration, greater speed and more braking efficiency than any car of similar size or weight. So that every Ford owner might be assured of maxi mum tire mileage at the low est cost, the Ford Motor Company devoted many months to research and experiment in conjunc tion with the leading tire manufacturers. As a result, certain defi nite specifications were de veloped for tires for the new Ford. These specify cords of certain strength and texture, a large volume of tread and side-wall rubber, sturdy non- skid design, and reinforced plies for protection against bruise breaks —all the strong features of construc tion formerly considered for only the largest tires. Great care also was taken to secure the best riding qual ities in connection with the transverse springs and the Houdaille shock absorbers. Though the Ford tires are designated as SO x 4.50, they have the resiliency and air space of much larger tires because of the drop center rim of the steel-spoke wheels. For best results, the tires on the new Ford should be kept inflated to an air pres sure of 35 pounds and checked regularly to insure this pressure all the time. This is important. Low in flation breaks down the side walls of a tire. By causing overheating, it also destroys the rubber that acts as an insulation, with consequent separation of the cord. At the end of each 5000 miles, when you have the front wheels packed with grease, it is a good plan to have the wheel alignment checked. This will prevent premature wear. When punctures come, as they will with any tire, you will find the Ford de^er particularly well - equipped to make repairs quickly and at small cost. See him, too, for replacements. Then you wiU be sure of getting tires built specially for the Ford car according to definite Ford specifications. Ford Motor Tompan\ Why Take a Chance on Tires?

This is more than f»ny other state in the southeast dis trict, except Georgia, with its well oslablished ports of export. It must also be taken into consideration that much of the North Carolina exports cannot be traced as they are made through jobbers and agents in north ern and southern foreign shipping ports.” Tkm Cmmm.
