the organization and the building

The building is owned by the
Swedish Baptist church which has
been dissolved as an organization,
the title being held in the name
of trustees, who recently proposed
to sell the building to the Saliva

The Chicago officials take the
ground that If any provision of the
kind suggested is inserted in the
deed ii would constitute a flaw in
the title and such being the case
the transfer under these conditions
would not be acceptable to them.

4 MAY WIN QUEENS
II FAVOR BY VOTES

Is the youth of today a spineless
lounge lizard?
Or does the same spirit OF chiv-
airy that frightened the dark ages
burn in his heart?
Is he waiting for a chance to
prove to the world that, like the
knight of Ivanhoe he dares to en-
ter the lists and TO nominate his
own little Lady Rowena as the
Queen?
For the queen contest of the cir
Gus and bazaar to be given under the
auspices of the Shrine at the Coli
scum March 27-April !, promises
to develop as spirited competition
as the celebrated tournament OF
Ashby de Ia Zouche which Sir Wal
ter Scott has immortaliZed in the
greatest romantic novel in the Eng
Ash language.
Ivanhoe was so seriously wound
ed in that gentle passage at arms
as the old chroniclers called the
tournament, that he nearly died.
The queen contest of today is not
SO hard boiled. It's to be decided
on popularity basis.
The most popular lady is elected
queen. Her crown will be bestow-
ed on her at the closing entertain
ment of the great six-day and six
night festival. And in addition to
the crown and all the honor that
goes with it, she receives a round
trip to the Pacific coast as the guest
of the Shriners and their ladies.
The lists are open TO the world.
Any queen who wishes to enter can
do so by sending her name and ad
dress to Manager John Loveridge
of the Capitol theatre And any
young man who wishes to prove to
the world that his queen 10 the
queen of them all, can do the same
thing. Entries are coming in fast
and the list viii soon be announc-
ed in this newspaper. There are
other prizes in addition to this
round trip ticket to California One
Is q new spring suit and another is
q new spring dress. But the girls
who get in early Will have the best
chance of winning.
