On Friday evening, June 7,
there will be held the closing
Sabbath Eve service for the sea-
son 1939-40, at Temple Beth El,
on which occasion Dr. Leo M.
Franklin will preach on the topic:
"Is This the End?"
The Sabbath Eve services dur-
ing the season have been excep-
tionally well attended and the
Rabbis and officers of the Tem-
ple are greatly gratified by the
fact, especially that so many
young people have been in con-
stant attendance.

The musical service, rendered
by the Temple Choir, under the
direction of George Gelvani and
with Jason H. Tickton at the or.
gan, has done much to enrich
and beautify the service. The
Temple chorus is one of the few
all-Jewish choirs in Reform Tem-
ples in the country.
Sabbath Eve services will be
resumed early in the Fall. I n
the meantime, Sabbath morning
services will be conducted with-
out interruption throughout the
summer months.
