X' Subscription Received Under 6 Months Tuesday, 'Soi'e/nhrr '10. 10 l-ft ; Great lit lie Men Roger Babson has a large number of ac quaintances who may be accounted as big men. but there is none who can exceed in i stature the little, deformed man who was one of the greatest geniuses of our time. Let us see what Mr. Babson says: “Charles P Steinmetz, who was unani mously recognized by the General Electric Company and other great similar organiza tions as the world's foremost electrical engi neer, was once visiting my home. "While talking over with him prospective future inventions in connection with radio, aeronautics, power transmission, etc.. I ask ed him: ‘What liin i*l \\ si arch will sei tin greatest development during the fifty years0’ After careful thought he replied: “‘Mr. Babson. 1 think the greatest discov ery will be made along spiritual lines. Here is a force which history clearly teaches has been the greatest power in the development of men and history. “ ‘Some day people will learn that mater ial things do not bring happiness and are of little use in making men and women crea tive and powerful. Then the scientists of the world will turn their laboratories over to the study of God and praye- and the spiritual forces which as yet have hardly been guess ed at. V/hen that day comes the world will see more advancement in one generation than it lias seen in the past four.' " Adapt >d from Forbes Magazine in Sunshint Maga : ne i= ()I vtti ftics I! hirer <7 l’ ilh I drills North Carolina Christian Advocate. The youngest member of the United States Olympic team and winner of the gruelling ten-event decathlon at. Wembley Stadium was 17-year-okl Rob Mathias of Tulare, California. This remarkable young athlete is an active member of the First Methodist Church in his home town, and his as “modest and clean in every way and one who never smokes or drinks." Before lead ing for London to represent his country in the Olympic games, he was glad to join his i :-i;tnr in nravei that he would not only do hi-, best it! the games bill til,'ll, lie would be a good witness for Jesus Christ. 4 This youth, whose Christian character and clean son, Lmansidp have helped i.< r<w<u him truly great athlete. was said to be the best high school football player in Califor nia, and in basketball averaged scoring 20 points a game. Last year, according to Mr. Sweet, Bob’s mother entertained each mem ber of the football squad'at dinner in their home in order to win their loyalty to high ideals, sportsmanship ano clean living. Bob's father is a leading physician in the commun ity. It takes more than a good Christian home and the influence of the church and Sunday school to make a successful life, of course but these things help, even in athletic corn petit ion. (pOSS:./I 1 am more deadly than the screaming shell from a howitzer; I ruin without killing. 1 tear down homes; 1 break hearts and wreck lives. I have no respect for truth and jus tice. no mercy foi the defenseless. You will find me in the pews of the pious and the haunts of the unholy. 1 am wily, cunning, malicious and I gather strength with age. 1 make my way with greed, mistrust and dishonesty are un known. 1 feed on good and bad alike1. My victims are as numerous as the sands of the sea and often as innocent. 1 never forgive and seldom forget. My name is Gossip. The Presidio. (.ominf: lo Thv /fesc.'ie Although !k has not been convicted, J. Parnell Thomas, the head of the Un-Ameri can Activities Committee and who stands in dicted for padding his payroll, is attracting a defense by such men as Westbrook Pegler. The caustic critic would excuse Thomas of his accused sins because others have sinned. One can understand how a man can de fend the opposition when a principle is in volved. but where alleged theft is concerned it is hard to believe that anyone would stand up for what's wrong and try to discuss it be cause others took advantage of their gov i rnmcnt after the same sneakish fashion. Local Girl Scouts Holding Meetings The Girl Scouts of Troop 4 held eting Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock in a room on the third floor of the City Hall.

Pontiac has one manufacturing principle which takes precedence over ail others: Ponrac must always be a good car! There is no other motor car quality which people value so much as goodness. That's why Pontiac engi neers and production specialists spend so much time and energy and money to insure Pontiac quality. Pontiac cars must last long—and they must last well— and they must function through the years with a minimum of upkeep cost. Owners have heen quirk to appreciate this. Some of the testimonials they send to the factory, and to Pontiac dealers, tell of performance feats that seem almost impossible of attainment. Pont'ac has many other outstanding virtues, of course. It is a wonderful performer. It is delightfully com fortable and easy to handle. It is a great beauty, and unusually distinctive in appearance. Hut its greatest virtue is goodness. This year, or any year, you just can’t beat it for faithful performance. *Gtneral Motors Hydra-Mask Dr it* and White Sidewall Tires and Bumper Guards old tonal «> additional cost. iilunnstetr-' Tune in WRCS, Ahoskie, N. t\, 97t* on your dial, each day at 1:15 P.
