I've Come Back to Buy . « I couldn't find anything that stacks up with today's Chandler paars the way it goes. The more that people look around, the more they recognize, appreciate and want the exclusive features and qualities of today's Chandler. New Sixes and new Royal Eights of magnificent smartness--and chock-full of mighty Pikes Peak power. More Power than Ever Power that's absolutely remarkable. High-velocity power. Performance that has everything within hundreds of the price tagging behind in traffic and on the hills. And with its new Westinghouse Vacuum Brakes, today's Chandler has them all stopped for stopping! Real Safety Brakes In modern driving, especially in traffic, there's a crying need for these quick- acting engine-power brakes. Just a light tiptoe touch on the pedal brings today's Chandler to a quick, even, "cushioned" stop -- three times easier and safer than is possible with mechanical or hydraulic brakes that depend entirely upon a driver's physi- cal strength. And another wonderful thing about Chandler is its "One Shot" centralized lubricating system. Push a plunger with your foot--and quicker than say- ing it, the chassis lubricates itself from end to end, automatically. Last Word in Lubrication No uncertainty. No fuss. No bother. No time out. No expense. It's some automobile --in set-up, in get-up--in beauty, in behavior--in quality, features, everything. A new Special Six Sedan, $995; a new Invincible Six Sedan, $1085; a new Big Six Metropolitan Sedan, $1525;anew Royal Eight Sedan, $1995 --all prices f. 0. b. factory. A total of thirty fashionable models. Come see, come drive, compare. ToM HAY AND SON, INC. North Shore Branch 1819 Ridge Ave. CH NEW ROYAL EIGHTS ' Evanston "Buy Your Car CHANDLER-CLEVELAND MOTORS CORPORATION ' Greenleaf 50 in Evanston" CLEVELAND, OHIO NDLER NEW BIG SIXES ' NEW INVINCIBLE SIXES Invite Illinois Leaders to N. U. Mock Convention Ruth Hanna McCormick, candidate for congressman-at-large, Senator Charles S. Deneen, Louis L. Emmer- son, Republican nominee for governor, Attorney General Oscar Carlstrom, Otis F. Glenn, Republican nominee for United States senator, Congressman Henry R. Rathbone, and Roy O. West, secretary of the Republican National committee, have been invited to sit on the platform at the mock Republican national convention at Patten gymna- sium, Northwestern university, the af- ternoon and night of Tuesday, May 29. The campus at Northwestern is buzzing with politics in anticipation of the big convention. The campaign for delegates for the various candidates for the presidency is actively under way. Preparation is being made for a struggle over the platform. And those students pacing in deep thought along the shores of Lake Michigan on the Northwestern campus are more than likely preparing the nominating speech for some. favorite son. Four co-eds, Katherine Hicks, head of the Arkansas delegation, Adrienne Grant, Margaret Carter and Betty Mz- Cullough, are preparing to lead the fight against putting a prohibition plank in the national platform, They are also leading the campaign for Nicholas Murray Butler, an avowed "wet," as the logical opponent for Al Smith. As near an exact duplicate of the Kansas City convention as possible is promised by Dr. A. R. Hatton, profes- sor of political science at Northwest- ern, who is assisting the students in the preparation of the mock conven- tion. The floor of Patten gymnasium will be arranged for the various state delegations as is done in an actual convention. Stampedes for favorite sons will be staged with the realism of a real convention. Students will par- ticipate to the full number of delegates that will sit in Kansas City. The opening session of the conven- tion, at 3 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, will have as highlights the keynote speech of Robert Howlett and other preliminary addresses. The night ses- sion will begin at 8 o'clock, when nominating speeches will be made and the vote taken. Unvaccinated Dogs Are Now Barred from Canada Owing to the present scourge of rabies in various sections of the coun- try, heavy penalties are prescribed by the Canadian law against bringing un- vaccinated dogs or other animals into the country, regardless of their healthy condition, according to a bulletin is- sued by the touring bureau of the Chi- cago Motor club. Because of their ig- norance of this ruling, scores of inter- state motorists have recently been turned back to their homes, and in some cases forced to pay a fine for carrying unvaccinated dogs in their cars. The bulletin goes on to say that Ohio laws also forbid bringing into the state a dog which has not been vac- cinated since the expiration of the ef- fective term of this treatment. PARTY FOR ACTRESS Vivian Purcell, who is appearing in "A Companionate Marriage" at the Cort, Chicago, was paid compliment by the party at which Miss Grace Divine of Evanston and Mrs. Marel Clyle of Chicago entertained Saturday evening at the hotel Stevens. Mrs. Clyle recently returned from a Medi- terranean cruise and is making her home temporarily in Chicago.
