SATURDAY EVENING,
widespread mourning probably would
| take the American public's mind off
baseball, at least for some time." says
John IC. Tener, president of the Na
tional League.
"In my opinion a great baseball sea
son is about to begin. There will be
more rivalry and more energetic play
ing in the major league than for sev
j eral years. Baseball has been rejuve
! nated in the last six months. The
I wiping out of the Players' Fraternity
\ has produced splendid results. The
1 Federal League opposition has been
! forgotten. The sport has been cleansed
and all the teams that will compete
in the pennant race have been
strengthened.
"It would be impolitic for me to pre
dict the outcome of the National Lea
gue struggle. As president of the lea
gue, it is my duty to remain neutral.
But I think that the public is well
aware of the fact that the Giants,
Brooklyn, Phillies and Braves are just
as strong as they were last year. The
Cardinals have been improved, too,
and the lieds, under Mathewson,
should give an excellent accoilnt of
themselves. Fred Mitchell should ob
i tain better results with the Cubs and
| Jimmy Callahan may. surprise the
baseball world with his new Pirates.
"Indications from all of the major
1 league -cities point to a big revival.
The fans all ovej* the country are
eager for the campaign to begin and
I lirmly believe that the attendance
figures, in some instances, will be
broken. Of course, tMis feeling of opti
mism is based on the belief that the
war with Germany will not produce
serious results until after the baseball
season ends. But if real trouble
comes, players, club owners and fans
will quickly show their loyalty to the
American flag."

Germany Fears President's
Plea For Demoncracy
By Associated Press
Copenhagen, April 7. President
Wilson's appeal for a democracy in Ger
many seemingly has created much ap
prehension in conservative circles in
Germany, judging by the energy with
which the Nationalist and Reactionary
newspapers are campaigning against it.
Count von Reventlow, in the Tages
Zeitung, again returns to the attack
against the concept built up, as he pre
viously explained, on a false version of
President Wilson's remarks on curlier
dynastic wars. He devotes a second
article to tlfe Russian features treated
of in the President's message.

Facts
Count
WE know they count, for this Spring we have been telling
the public just fundamental facts about the Chandler and
how it checks with high-priced cars in so many essential features r r
of design and construction. And these facts made the Chandler
March business the biggest in the whole history of this big
business.
Do you know how great this demand for Chandlers is? So
great that in four years the Chandler has attained a position
never even approached by any other medium priced car in such
a period! So great that this year it seems certain that more
people will purchase Chandler cars than will purchase any other
Six selling for more than twelve hundred dollars.
Don't be Blinded by
Noisy Claims
Chandler facts prove Chandler superiority, and the service of
Chandler cars in the hands of thousands of owners is added
proof, The Chandler offers you
The exclusive Chandler motor—powerful and flexible—developed and
refined to a point approximating perfection through four years of
conscientious manufacturing effort.
Solid cast aluminum crank case extending frotai frame to frame.
• Bosch high tension magneto ignition.
Silent chain drive for motor shafts.
Durable, light - running annular ball bearings in transmission,
differential and rear wheels.
Silent spiral-bevel gear, full floating rear axle.
And scores of other distinctly high grade features of design,
construction and equipment.

NOYES TO TELL
OF U-BOAT HUNT
Great English Poet to Relate
His Experiences in the
War Zone
An Englishman sorrowed because he
could not handle a gun for his coun
try because of por eyes. Yet of that
man, Alfred Noyes, and his word pic
tures of the European war, the Boston
Transcript has said: "Only Verest
cliagin, the painter of battlefields, has
approached Noyes' vivid realism." Ilar
rlsburg has a great treat In store In
the war lecture of Mr. Noyes, "Hunt
ing Submarines," or "My Experiences
in tho War Zone," to be given in Tech
nical High school Thursday evening,
April 19. for tho benefit of the Harris
burg S. P. C. A.
When England's great poet could not
servo as a soldier he gave himself as
a correspondent. His opportunities to
see the war have been great, as he
has been in the Aviation Corps, in the
trenches and among the trollers. who
are doing such wonders in destroying
submarlnos. Tho few "experiences"
Harrisburgers heard made the vast
audience that crowed Fahnestock Hall
to overflowing eager for more.
There are many who can gtvo vivid
descriptions of the war, there aro few
who can vary a war lecture with de
lightful readings of one's own war
poems. Mr. Noyes knows how to read
poetry as well as write It. He has a
strong sense of rythm that some of the
modern school scorn, but which car
19
rles lila audience with him. "Forty
Singing Seamen," "The Lord of Mis
ruhe," or "The Admiral's Ghost" dra
matically yet simply road by Mr. Noyesi
is an experience long to be remem
bered.
In view of the great demand for
tickets those desirous of making sure
of a seat when the reserved seat board
opens can secure them in advance from
S. P. C. A. headquarters, or from any
of the directors. Prices are fifty cents
for general admission, seventy-five
cents and one dollar for reserved seats.
