Es_ of Crediton A REVELATION awaits you in your first ride in the New and Finer Pontiac Six—a revelation of comfort, of smoothness, of power, of flexibility that you never dreamed attainable in any car of compar­ able price. And the reason is evident. In the Nevv, and Finer Pontiac Six General Motors turned their vast' resources, their stores of knowledge and skill, the facilities of their matchless laboratories and proving grounds, their great advantages of purchasing and production, all to the task of providing a type of high- quality, six-cylinder automobile such as had never before been available at anywhere near so low a price. The result is a car of long, low, graceful lines, of exquisite design and coloring, of the.latest body styles, of the utmost completeness—a car as smooth in per­ formance as an arrow’s flight, quick as a flash to respond to your demands . . . and a car that brings quality- six performance to the widest circle of car-buyers.

On day, April 2, 1927 while the orial service of the late Chas, was going on at Zion Evangelical church the sad news was conveyed that Orville had passed away. It was a brief but grievous illness. His life was not long but somehow it was. high and deep, tor the ^little lad often spoke of the weightier things that adults often forget. “Mama when are we going to die,” was one of his earnest questions. Another query was “Mama, if you would drop off suddenly what would happen to papa?” He seemed to have a premonition of the brevity of his earthly life and was absorbed in the things of heaven and death and the 'grave.
