Some twenty-five slides™ of the “Passing of can Indian” were shown, held the atténtion and lnieren ot all in attendance, ' After the mom the, slides a brief talk wis-gl Secretary Edwin Hill, ‘who' (n‘mk his. topic, .“Who is.the xflq_ohnbmu"" In part the speaker said, e richest man in America is not necessarily the biggest man, even though e influence. The' strongest cally, is not the. biggest: maj prize fighter-of-a fow- yeafs ago- held the championshin kelt for a number of years, but he was far from- being. the biggest man..in our ‘country, though he was over “six feet tall and huilt proportionately. One day he weak- ened in the presence of a glass of rum, and finally became a drunkard. The man who holds a-position ‘of premin- ence is not the biggest man, for every once in a while such men fail utter- ly. The higgest man, and the biggest ‘Woman in any community is that man or that woman who follows most closely the téachings of the Almighty God as recorded in the Bible; that man, end that woman who lives & clean pure life. The biggest and best man is that man who endeavors to fashion his life after the example of the “Man of Nazereth” whom we know as Jesus Christ. After the talk the employes sang “Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean” and Nearer, My God to Thee.” VOLUNTOWN- SPEAKING CONTEST FRIDAY EVENING State: Supervisor of Schools C. R.
