AUTO REGARDED AS
ECONOMICjTCCESSITY
Studebaker Official Sayi Motor
Car Is One of Qreateit Aids
in Modern Business
Efficiency.
"The automobile increases every in
dividuals' capacity to produce," says
L. J. Oilier, vice president and di
rector of sates of the Studebaker cor
poration. "Years ago it ceased to be
classed as a luxury and now, in every
section of the country, men in every
walk of life look upon their cars as
a necessity not to be dispensed with.
"People generally have come to
accept the fact that the motor car is
an economic instrument and one of
the greatest aids to modern business
efficiency. But of even greater im
portance is the fact that the motoa
car contributes untold joys ana pleas
ures to life when used in a purely
business way. i
"To the business and professional
man in automobile means not only
aided convenience, but also recreation
and relaxation. The morning spin
from homes takes the business man
into his office feeling fresh and vig
orous for the day's work. Profes
sional men find their cars well nigh
indispensable now. Because of the
automobile their patients receive bet
ter care better because the physi
cian is at their bedside before condi
tions become too serious.
"Salesmen in various lines of busi
ness often find their efficiency great
ly enhanced by the use of a motor
car.
"To the family an automobile
means health, strength and added,
vigor it means, in fact, increased
happiness."
New Routing System in
4 Allen Motor Co. Plant
The completion of t large addition
to the Allen Motor Co.'i motor works
at Bucyrus, O., doubles the capacity
of the plant and nukes possible a
new phase of engineering efficiency
long atriven for by L. A. Sommer,
general factory manager.
In these. days, when factory effi
ciency is the subject ot constant at
tention from automobile manufactur
ers, new production systems are con'
stantlv beinr out into effect.
Mr. Sommer. designer of the Allen
motor, believes that a great deal of
confusion and lost action are avoided
through systematic routing in tie
lories. '

Leo J. Hanley, now at Fort Snell
ing, it the honor man of the senior
elasa of the Creighton Law .school
He will be awarded the annual prize,
consisting of a complete forty-volume
set of the Cyclopedia of Law and
Procedure, with its annual annotationi
up to date.
Robert F. McGuiggan, president of
In the big tent, pitched just north
of the main building, the annual com
mencement exercises of Creighton
university were held Saturday morn
ing. . The long procession of graduates in
caps and gowns marched from the
main building to the tent and took
places on the platform erected at one
end of the tent There were eight
graduates of the College of Liberal
Arts, nine in the College of Law,
the senior class of the law school, and
Chester L. Morgan, of the same class,
are also at Fort Snelling.
Frank F. Theissen, Robert J.
Schemel and Adolph J. Kubitschek
are the honor men of the dental school
and have been awarded memberships
in the Omicron Kappa Upsilon Na
tional honorary fraternity. .
forty-four in the College of Medicine,
twenty-two in the College of Den
tistry and twenty-six in the College of
Pharmacy.
W. C. Fraser, marshal of the day,
led the procession. Members of the
faculty came after the graduates, and
President McMenamy last.
Father McMenamy, in his address,
reviewed the growth and forecasted
the future of the university.
"Twenty-seven years ago," he said,
the first class was graduated from
Creighton; It consisted of five men.
This year's class consists of 110 young
men and women. Between these two
figures we have a fair indication of
the growth of Creighton.
Advance in Requirements.
"This has been brought about in
spite of certain things which would
have a tendency 10 cut sown aucnu-
ance. first, there is me great au
vance in requiremnts in the last twen
ty years. Twenty years ago a tew
questions were asked of the young
man who sought admittance to a pro
fessional school. If he had a com
mon school education that was about
all that was required.
"Today the student who is admitted
to a reputable college ot medicine
must have had five to six years of
schooling beyond the common
schools. He who it admitted to a
reputable law school must have had
five years of school beyond the com
mon branches. He who is admitted
to a reputable dental college must
have hid four vears of schooling
beyond the common school course.
"The increased length of the col
lege courses also makes extra de
mands of the student.
Outgrown It Building.
"Creighton university is in need of
physical expansion. It has entirely
outgrown the main building here on
the hill. It is in urgent need now of
a central library building. It must
soon have a science hall. It needs a
new dormitory building. We have
bought property to the west of the
athletic field and intend to build a
new high school there. But the finan
cial side of the proposition has not
yet been arranged."
President McMenamy called atten
tion to the fact that several of the
graduates have already gone to the
service of the country in some
branch of war work. "And," he said,
"if the government takes them all we
will say 'welcome.' "
Faculty members of the various
colleges presented the graduates and
President McMenamy read the names
and announced that they bad received
their degrees. Dr. J. b. toote pre
sented the medical graduates; Dean
Paul L. Martin the law graduates;
Dean Robert M. Kelley the gradu
ates of the college of liberal arts;
Dean A. H. Hippie the dental gradu
ates, and Dean Howard C Newton
the pharmacy graduates.
Hade Real Lawyers.
Chief Justice Morrissey and Su
preme Court Judges Cornish, Dean
and Letton were on the platform. The
chief justice administered the oath to
the law graduatea and declared (hern
admitted to the bar.
The commencement address was
made by Hon. James M. Graham of
Springfield, 111.
"The most valuable part of a col
lege education," he said, "is that it
teaches the student to use his facul
ties of mind and to co-ordinate them
so that they work to the greatest
good."
The members of the senior class
of Mt. St. Mary's academy were pres
ent in the audience, wearing their
academic caps. '

Little Giant Trucks Are
Now on the Market Here
Still another line of motor trucks
has been added to the Omaha list by
the Haarmann-Locke Motors com
pany, who have recently located at
2429 Farnam street
The Haarmann-Locke people have
pinned their- faith to the Little Giant
line manufactured by the Chicago
Pneumatic Tool company, and al
though the sales activities have just
begun, both Haarmann and Locke
foresee a tremendous business with
this line. The Little Giant is a very
well known line, and requests are com
ing in from dealers all over the state
for information and territory rights.
W. A. Young, special representative;
for the Chicago Pneumatic Tool corn,
pany, who baa come to Omaha from
the eastern field, is very much urn
pressed with the outlook in this ter
ritory. Although he feels that this
community is not fully awake to tht
advantages of the commercial truck;
he is more than pleased with the out
look and feels that an energetic edu
cational campaign will bring the peo
ple of this section to a full realization
of truck economy. This once accom
plished, the west will lead in truck
purchases, as the truck is vital to
scientific farming and increased pro
duction. Flags and Streamers Now
Decorate Peerless Shops
Flags and streamers of bunting now
decorate the various assembling and
machine departments throughout tlje
big factories in Cleveland, where the
Peerless motor cars are made. They
have been placed by the men them
selves as a spontaneous manifesta
tion of their strong patriotic feeling.
In the gear-cutting department flags
have been mounted on machines. The
Stars and Stripes proudly wave from
the rams of the shapera as they cut
the metal into form. In other depart
ments skylights have been fastened
with bunting and shaftings decorated
with flags.

THE BtocletlUtrilnitiOfn tywluchW perceiitof the
members of the Firestone Organization accepted
partnership in the Companjr, is a further move to
ward the betterment of the service to the public. It is
vital factor for the development of man power which
is the lever of all successful business.
But while yott may not be concerned with the ethical
side of the partnership, you as a user of tires are
vitally interested in its effect on the quality and
mileage cost of Firestone Tires.
, Now that Firestone workers are owners of the business,
it is logical to suppose that there will be improvements
all along the line. Efficiency has always been the
Firestone watchword, and everybody knows that men
are more efficient when personal pride and ambition
are involved.

Chandler Price Must
Advance $200 June 30th
The price of the Chandler Six becomes $1595 on the
first day of July. The present model, identically the
same car, will be continued after that date,
Vntil that date the price remains $1395
:. It 'has always been a basic part of Chandler policy
to keep the Chandler price low
We have kept it low. Men considered
the original Chandler price of $1785 es
tablished' four years ago an impossible
price. Later when the Chandler Com
pany reduced that price to $1595 the
trade thought we were courting disaster.
Further reductions came as a positive
shock to the industry.
Meanwhile the Chandler Company
prospered and Chandler business grew to
front rank proportions. The Chandler
car was never cheapened, but, rather, im
proved and refined from season to season
until the whole motor car purchasing pub
lic has come to recognize the Chandler
car as 'a car of surpassing value.
Our whole purpose has been to build
the best lightweight Six and sell it at the
lowest possible price.
We have sold the Chandler car for hundreds of dollars
less than cars of similar quality
We have built into the Chandler car,
as fundamental features of construction
and equipment, the most important feat
ures which are characteristic of the high
est priced ,cars of all types features
which are not found in other medium
priced Sixes, or found, at best, to very
flight degree.
Now, however, the Chandler price must be advanced
It must be materially advanced to
cover the greatly increased costs which
have arisen this Spring by reason of un
precedented conditions iii the material
supply and labor markets and in problems
of transportation. i
Production costs throughout the past
three months have advanced steadily and
in long strides. This is a condition which
we cannot control. It is a condition which
we must meet.
So the Chandler price must be ad
vanced. In making this advance we do
not depart from our firmly established
policy of keeping the price just as low as
it can be kept and still provide reasonable
manufacturing profit.
At $1595 the Chandler car will still be under-price
It will be distinctly under-priced, as
compared to other cars which some may
consider of similar quality. By test of
any conceivable comparison this state
ment is a provable fact.
Now you can buy this great Six at
$1395,f.o.b. Cleveland.
While the $1395 price holds, the demand will continue to greatly exceed
our production, and we cannot guarantee deliveries
