Here is a photo taken from Google maps showing the Templo Adventista at 4138 W. North. Looks like the funeral home is now a church.

The Edna Theatre could be this project noted in the May 21, 1910 issue of The Economist:

William F. Pagels has completed plans for a two story theater, with store, 35x125 feet, to be erected on North avenue, near Forty-first avenue. It will cost $20,000.“
Chicago’s numbered avenues were given names around 1913. The 4100 block has since begun at Karlov Avenue.
