Rev. James E. Freeman, Bishop of Washington, Wt a com- munity service yesterday afternoon at the amphitheater at the Cathedral Close. The mass meeting, held under the auspices of the Laymen's Service Assoclation. was atfended by more than 10,000 persons. “We must give up our denomina- tional hobbies and s n conceit for the sake of the larger vision,” Bishop Freeman declured. “The gredt line of the Christian church must be reformed as we move into the enemy's country.” The address of the new bishop formed | the climax to the second impressive service held at the Close since h consecration, and men of all de nominations attended.

These and a dozen other occasions when you’re in a pinch bring out the snap and vim that “Standard”, the balanced gasoline, is noted for. This matter of balance isn’t a simple one—not by a long shot. Every drop of every kind of gasoline is a mixture, but “Standard” has just the correct ratio of intermediate hydrocarbon elements to furnish these snappy pick-ups. It also has just as carefully deter- mined full power and long efficient mileage. The great host of motorists who use “Standard” ex- clusively are reaping the benefit, in this balanced gasoline, of over fifty years’ refining experience.

Willlam De Vries, canon of the cathedral. Rev. ‘Warner, rector of St. Alban's read the Psalter. Rev. George Fiske Dudley, rector of St. Stephen's Church and president of the standing com- mittee of the dlocese, read the Bible lesson. Dean G. C. F.

Such will be the opinion of those who live to marvel at the products of 1950. And in identical words are motorists of today indorsing the new models on display. You cannot view the superattractive bodies of the new cars without feeling that you dre the most fortunate car buyer of all times. For the former price of a mediacre car you can purchase beauty of work- manship and design such as the motorist of 1909 dared not dream of. You find the 1924 offerings even anticipating the tastes of tomorrow without clashing with those accept- able today. The very lines of the new cars urge you to take advantage of a unique opportunity to invest wisely through buying now.
