'Uoice of the f^adtAide By MARY P. McGUIRE

As I am appearing on the program and knowing you wish him much success, I will certainly be looking for you Sunday afternoon ai 3 at Wallace Community Church, 980 Burdsal. Rev. Gibson has a lovely family, and they too wish to see friends of theirs on
this day.
Among the important features of the program will be “500,000 miles of travelogue” by Mr. Kehr. who has been to all parts of the world. Decorations he has include the Knighthood in the Order of Orange-Nassau from Queen Juliana of Holland, the Great Cross, Order of Merit, Academico de Honor, etc. Since the church only accommodates 400 persons, I am appealing to my friends to be the first in the church Sunday. Don’t disappoint me, please. Your Scribe will bring greetings from the Eastside Better Business and Civic League, representing the Eastside
