The members of our large Staff are all striving earnestly to do their very best for M. S.

The stu dent body is responding splendidly to the appeal for the observance and attainment of higher standards soholastically, socially, morally and spiritually so that M.-S. C» may become the safest and best place in the world for parents to send their sons and daughters for an education. The magnificent chimes tower with the striking of its clock and the ringing of its bells has already become one potent source of inspira tion on the Campus constantly reminding all to strive for the attainments of those standards heretofore mentioned for which the institution is to stand in a markedly characteristic way.

By the end of the third year, with a Reo, you will have saved in repairs alone far more than your added investment—and you will have a fourth, fifth, sixth year and even more of really outsanding service to look forward to. -:- Reos are built the way only the finest cars are built—to last. And people who know motor cars will tell you that for long life, performance and mechanical dependability a Reo is to be compared only with cars in the highest price-brackets . . . Besides, wouldn't you rather drive a care that hasn't an obvious price tag attached to it? -:- Look around, of course—but be sure to look in at your Reo dealer's. Now you can have a Reo Flying Cloud at a lower price than ever before.
