ELLIS RHODES TO SING SUNDAY NIGHT Mr. Ellis Rhodes will sing Sunday night at the White Temple, Stainer's "Come Unto Me." He will also lead in a gospel song service and direct the chorus choir. Mr. Rhodes has had large experience and distinguished success as a choir director and soloist, having served such outstanding churches as St. George's Episcopal church, New York, the church made famous by Dr. Rainford and Pierpont Morgan, and such great Methodist churches as Calvary, New York, and First church, Evanston. Those who have heard him are enthusiastically praising the board of the White Temple for securing the services of Mr. Rhodes, who not only brings a golden voice to our city but who is planning to put on several beautiful cantatas. The platform of the White Temple is being made over so as to enlarge and lower the choir platform, centering it with the organ and giving the choir a better opportunity for its work while at the same time improving the speaking platform by advancing it three feet. Lovers of good music will be safe in inviting their guests and friends to worship at the White Temple and it is certain that no city in So. Calif. will give the public any better musical service.

Take flexibility—practically every part of the car constructed to ease road shocks. No other car has gone to the expense of the laminated wood frame with its greater ability to give before blows and to absorb vibrations. To counteract jolts and strains, Franklin alone uses four-point body suspension, instead of rigidly boltting the body to the frame: No rigid torque tubes or strut rods to transmit the pounding of the road. Unsprung weight. The less weight below the springs, the less hammering of the road against the body of the car. No other car manufactured has less weight below the springs than the Franklin. Spring suspension. Franklin alone has worked out the problem of spring suspension so that most of the joists of the road are taken up before the reach you. Full elliptic springs front and rear—more costly—functioning with twice the spring movement of the usual semi-elliptical Attached to frame at only one point—unfettered in their movement.

NO RED—WITHOUT THE WHITE AND BLUE By Ernest E. Cole First Assistant Superintendent of Chicago Schools There's no other land like my land. Beneath the shining sun; There's no other flag like my flag. In all the world—not one; One land, one tongue and one people, To one flag loyal, true— No red shall wave o'er my fair land Without the white and blue. There's grandeur in my land's mountains, Contentment in her vales; There's wealth in her broad prairies, There's freedom in her gales; In my land all men are equal, Her flag proclaims it, too— No red shall wave o'er my fair land Without the white and blue. There's majesty in old glory, Hope in each stripe and star; It heralds freedom, liberty, To nations, near and far; Unsullied and triumphant, Glorified, she floats anew— No red shall wave o'er my fair land Without the white and blue.
