EASTER-TIDE, harbinger usu
ally of the closing club year
in all women's organizations,
this spring will bring no sur
cease from club duties, for
clubwomen will engage themselves
more deeply than ever in whatever
service they can give our country. The
National League for Woman's serv
ice, the Red Cross chapter in pro
cess of organization, with its Red
Cross auxiliaries and war relief bene
fits cast a serious air over women's
activities, more than wont.
Annual meetings with their reports
and elections are general this month
and next, together with social affairs,
which emphasize the sisterly feeling
generated by a year's close association
in work along welfare lines. '
Of special interest later in the
month will be an educational cam
paign conducted- by Presbyterian
women's missionary organizations at
the North Presbyterian church, Twenty-fourth
and Binney streets, April
19-22. Mrs! D. B. Wells of Chicago,
Mrs. E. H; Silverhorn of Denver and
Mrs. Guy H. Davis, a missionary, are
the chief speakers. The plan to be
pursued is somewhat the same as the
Summer School of Missions, which was
conducted for several years at the
Omaha university, including morning
classes, where normal class work,
methods and problems will be dis
cussed; afternoon given up to popu
lar presentation of Latin America,
and evening session filled with in
formational and inspirational ad
dresses. The last night of the cam
paign there will be a large dinner and
mass meeting at the fine new First
Presbyterian church.
The local committee in charge is
headed by Mrs. D, W. Merrow and
includes Mesdames A. T. Sidwell, D.
L. Johnston, Martin Oberst, Blaine

your car.
GET this question of weight settled before you decide
on any car.
As far as light weight is concerned, we're not the
only ones talking it.
Nearly all automobile people acknowledge light weight
to be one of the biggest factors in the motor car world.
' .
But we go further than merely acknowledging it; we bach
up our belief through the FraclJin Car.
Note this: not one of the Franklin open cars weighs over
2280 pounds; not one of the Franklin enclosed cars weighs
over 2620 pounds on the scales.
Through this Scientific Light Weight a Franklin prin
citfe for fifteen years you, as an automobile buyer, can know
in advance something more than purchase price. You can
know about actual results.
Tirinl road shook do not reach
yon; light weight eases the blow.
For instance, yon can get a
clear idea of future olnraHnt
cost
Franklin Scientific Light
Weight requires minimum gaso
line to move it. (A gallon goes 20
miles, on an average).
The tires are protected from
unnecessary pounding. (Franklin
owners are averaging 10,000 miles
to the set).
Destructive hammering on the
mechanism is minimized. (Light
weight saves repair bills.)
You can know what to expect
in riding and drivini euolltiet
'Yon get quick starting and stop
ping, almost effortless steering.
And as an investnunt-
Find a used Franklin and see
what Scientific Light Weight does
