President Joseph Swntn, of Swarthmore
Cpllege, Is right In line with otner leading
dueator of the State In advocating the
WCslty of keeping open the schools and
olleges of the nation durlng-the war.
"Whatever else students may do In the
mrir nf thoir rminirv during the um-
f v f," he "W. "they will be serving their
LiX'ountry If they will do all 'n their power
Himf onng young men "" . ...---'
S Jiose under twenty-one, to fnco squarely tho
K unimportance to themselves and their country
",' obtaining a college eaucauou . "
that they may best (trio during the war
and In the trying period of reconstruction
following tho war. For every college stu
dent who goes out from collegn walls there
should be another to take his or her place."
President Svvaln also called attention to
the following speech, which he made re
eejntly to students of Swarthmore College on
the samo subject:
"On May S there met In Washington
perhaps the largest gathering of represen
tatives of tho colleges of the Unlfd States
- Jn our history. There were present repre
sentatives from all parts of tho country
fram California tn Maine ard Washington
to Louisiana They were called tngpther
by Doctor Godfrey, appointed by President
"Wilson as a member of tho Aelvlkorv Colin
ell of National Defense Among their state
inenta of principles this largo body unani
mously agreed upon the following resolu
tion: '"Wo therefore believe, first, that all
young men below the age of liability to tho
j, eIectlvo draft and thoso not iccommended
for special service who can avail themselves
of the opportunities offered by our colleges
should be urged to do so In order that they
may bo able to render the most cffcctlvo
service-,-both during the full period of tho
war. and In tho trying times which will fol
low Its close.'
The faculty of Swarthmoro College has
ttnanlmously approved of thli action It Is
believed that the unprecedented death In
Europe of collego men makes especial re
sponsibility rest upon tho United States.
o far as possible, not to decrease, but to
increase, tho number of students in our In
stitutions of higher learning
"A little more than a week ago represen
tatives of twenty-one colleges in Pennsylva
nia also unanimously agreed to tho resolu
tion passed at the Washington meeting re
ferred to above In further emphasis of
this ideal they agreed to tho following stale
tnent: "'In view of the serious need In tho near
future for men broadly educated, capable
of solving the great problems, we bellevo
that students In our colleges of liberal arts
and sciences should continue where possible
throughout tho course of study, and that all
young men who can avail themselves of tho
opportunities offered by our colleges should
be urged to enter
"'We believe further that In considera
tion of the Importanro of applied Fclcnco
Jn the present war, students pursuing tech
nical courses such as medicine, chemistry,
grlculturo and cnglncprlng are rendering
or are to render through tho contlnuanco
of their training a service equally valua
ble ag those they might offer If they were
to enroll In military or naval service '
"Secretary Baker was present at the
Washington meeting and among other
things he said
"'Boys anxious to servo but too young
or possessing disabilities can perhaps do
best staying on in the Institutions In which
they are enrolled '
"United States Commissioner nf Kduca
tlon was a member of the Washington meet
ing and he expressed himself very strongly
that Instead of beln fewer there should
bo more high school graduates this jear
entering th- colleges "

Identically The Same
There will be no change of any nature
in the Chandler at the new price. The
present series, greatest in Chandler his
tory, will be continued without alteration.
The Chandler Company has striven to
avoid this Advance in price. But the
advance is unavoidable. It would have
been justified months ago. Almost every
item in cost of production has advanced
materially.
The $1395 price could halve been con
tinued only by cheapening the car. And
the Chandler car has never been cheapened.
Will Still Offer
Much Excess Value
At the new price the Chandler will still
offer excess value. Distinctive Chandler
features Bosch High Tension Magneto
Ignition; solid cast aluminum crank case
extending from frame to frame; annular ball
bearings in transmission, differential and
rear wheels; silent chain drive for motor
shafts, and many other features character
istic of the finest high-priced cars are not
found in other cars selling so low as the
advanced Chandler price.
At the present $1395 price, there is no
other six comparable to the Chandler in
