Pinckney, chairman in Butts county for Boys’ Estate at Brunswick, in directing attention to the current campaign for funds, quotes from a recent column in the Atlanta Journal by Ernest Rogers as to the effective work being done at the institution. Rogers in an inter view with Ardell Nation, guiding spirit at Boys’ Estate, says: And to build boys, Mr. Nation and his associates have found that once the youngsters are fired with an en thusiasm for rehabilitation that they can do much of the building them- selves. And that is the theory on which Boys’ Estate operates. It is a self-governed community with its own mayor, chief of police, judges,, etc. Any infraction of the rules is air ed in open court conducted by the youngsters. “And the encouraging thing," says Mr. Nation, “is that impartial justice is meted out. Every one is given a fair trial.” The citizens of Boys’ Estate cover an age span of from 8 to 18. The average is 13. All of them are Geor gians. On arrival at Boys Estate they are told to stay only if they want to. They want to. Mr. Nation, in discussing Boys’ Estate, says it is not a question of whether the institution will survive but how fast it will grow. He feels that 1952 may be the most fruitful year since ttie beginning. Plans call for opening a pountry farm, install ation of a laundry system, building a city hall and completion of the Ma con cottage. But to do all of this takes money. And that is why, duriftg February, the friends of Boys’ Estate are con ducting a campaign for funds. They are appealing to the generosity of those who believe in giving young sters a real chance in life. So, when the appeal for Boys’ Estate is put squarely up to you may I suggest that you recall the words of a radio performer who enunciated Take the wheel to get the feel of this amazing performer! You have to take the wheel of a "Dual-Range* Pontiac yourself before you can completely enjoy the thrill of having, at your finger-tips, two entirely different types of performance: quick, easy acceleration for traffic— or economical, almost silent cruising for the open road. When you do, you’ll say, “This is it!”—for never before has such spectacular performance been combined with such remarkable economy. Come in today—experience the most exciting driving in all the world. *Optional at extra cost.
