Tne advirtisers in the Sa¬

our readers’ trade. Try pat¬
ronizing them. They may have
just what you want.
Have you read “Sportrait” by
‘Chuck” Smith, a feature ar¬
ticle wh eh started in tois pa-
p:r on June 30? If you are in¬
terested in sports, be sure to
read this article.
Judging from the letters re¬
ceived from our “Teenage”
readers, these youngsters arc
only interested in reading gos-
s p columns in the newspaper
We are wondering what makes
them so anxious to hurt an-
otoer’s feelings. So many
harmful articles are received
(unsigned) urging publication.
What can we do about this
type of interest? T.iere
used to be one period
i week in our high schoo.'
(Talladega) when all student:
were assembled to discuss cur-
:ent events. This was toe most
interesting pnried of the week
It, at least, gave students a
good reason for reading worth
while news articles.
Churches wito “Jazz” playin;
pianists can acquire more rev¬
erence in their services by re
plac ng their pianos w.th or¬
gans. It is not as easy to jazz
a hymn or gospel song on the
organ as it is on the piano
100 , church soloists can noi
give vaudev.lle performances
as easily by organ accompani¬
ments. Church worshp is
more dignified when the organ
peals forth its sonorous sounds.
Ministers who are truly inter¬
ested in their profession would
do well to think th’s over.
Ch.pt. Frank Spencer in in¬
troducing Rev. Ralph M. Gil¬
bert at the Greenbriar dedica¬
tion last Sunday said that Rev
Gilbert had done more for Sa¬
vannah during h’s nine years
of residence than most native
citizens had accomplished in a
lifetime. From the
applause following this
ment, the aud ence must
agreed with him wholehearted¬
ly. We certainly do.
Mrs. Martha W.lson, president
of the board of directors of the
Greenbriar Center, has given
the community a fine
of what “SticktoitWeness”
means. Had she not stuck
the job of putting the

her fellow sorors would
given up. She had the

J. FOR QUALITY—Quality always has been Pepsi-Cola*S
keynote .. . unswerving standards of quality that govern
the making of Pepsi, from the original ingredients through
every step of blending and bottling.
2. F’OR FLAVOR-There’s just one way you can really
judge a flavor, and that’s to try it. Try Pepsi-Cola. We’re
sqre you’ll make it your favorite drink.
3. FOR SIZE- Naturally you want more for your money.
That's just good sense. And every big bottle of Pepsi-Cola
holds not 6 , not 8 but 12 full ounces. Compare that with
ordinary soft drinks. Pepsi is the best buy—the best value.
