MANY LOST FORTUNE
TRYING TO GET RICH
Mundratfa Caught Under Stock Mar

Invested in Government Se

. Whether or not inApy persona from
thin section were "caught" In the re
cant slump of (ho New York market
probably will never be known, and
i in- 1 1' In no way of estimating tha
amount of nfliiiny lost Silt It la d*fl
nltely known that many men nnd per*
hapa a number of woman woe badly
"stung" and that their louse ? ran fat
Into the millions of dollara. I
It goaa without saying. of course,
that their lossea '-am? from the mar
ket collapse of certnln securities or
because they ware unable to weather
the storm when atocks, which tbey had
bought on margin, suddenly lepra
elated. In other worda, much of the
loas waa <bacausu men and WMnen
lured by the promise af grejM profits
matched thflr wits with -the old wai
horses of tfta speculation gam$.' and
at a result many llStlo for:unes were
utterly wlpad out .
Many business men realized soma
time ago that certain market quota

moderate means not to endanger their
money in any get rich-quick schame
which might be offered.
Those persons who Invested the'r

who holds these securltles?ls always
absolutely sn'fe regardless of anything
that may happen in tha speculative
stock markets of the country.
Of course the immediate market
?nine of Liberty Honda and Victory
Notes fluctuates, but holders of these,
securities may rest absolutely easy
because the changes in the market
prices Of these government securities
are far iesH than in other bonds and
their intrinsic worth with the (Jover?

Somewhere in the personal effecta
of King Albert of nelglum reposes a
thrift card with a ITnited States Qov

Greatest of All
Spring'll Be Here
'fore You Know It
T^VESPITE conditions which greatly held back the production
I 3 of automobiles throughout the early months of this year,
nearly twenty thousand discriminating motor car buyers have
been made happy and contented by the possession of their new
Chandler cars. '
Nothing could more clearly show the regard
in which America holds the Chandler Six, than,
the patience with which, thousands waited f6r
weeks and months for their Chandler?,. They
waited because they knew what they were waiting
for,? because they know it is worth waiting for.
Some are still waiting, but their cars are com
ing. December production is taking care of many
orders, and January will see the great Chandler
plant on a production basis unprecedented in the
medium priced fine car field. \
^?an*!Ier d^a,ers w|H, we hope, be able to fill \
on*ers,more quickly next year, but when the
days <jf Spring come, and the country f
an2 everyone decides he wants his new ,
? ? once? there will be some waiting again.
r*io!y?U want your new Chandler when you want it,
H.?rfK?Ur OIX*er now. If you want to be sure of get
K car your choice, the greatest of all Sixes
titZiIl Question, drop in and see your Chandler /
ho Ln?ui regardless of what the weather may
? For vSpring 11 be here ?fore you know it. |

All Chandler bodies are mounted on the one standard Chandler chassis, which has made the
