MR. SYDNEY L. NYBURG'

By Sydney L. Nyburg

$1.40,net

This vital story of the Jews in America,
is a romance of unusual power and will
appeal to all classes—Jews and Christians
alike. We predict that it will be made
the subject of many essays and sermons.

A Brilliant Piece of Work.

New York Times:—"A brilliant piece of
work. . . . To enumerate the well-handled
scenes and the admirably portrayed char-
acters would be simply to give a list of
the incidents and people in the book.
. . . A story of distinction . . . well
worth attention."

Of Exceptional Quality.

Boston Transcript:—"A novel of excep-
tional quality. It brings to life a little-
studied aspect of our civilization. Philip
Graetz, in his contrast with the thorough-
ly utilitarian and ultra-practical David Gor-
don, is a fine type of honesty and loyalty."

When the stock of any automobile manufacturer,
well managed and conservatively financed, is quoted
at a figure AS LOW AS PAR, these shares are surely
worth your investigation.
For such a quotation suggests only two possibili-
ties.
Either the stock has been depreciated by the exist-
ence of preferred stock, bonds or other indebtedness.
Or the enterprise is in the development stage, and
its stock has not yet felt the upward surge that follows
dividend declarations.
It is the latter condition which prevails in the case
of Harroun Motors stock. To that fact alone is due
your ability to buy this stock today at so low a rate as
$9 a share of $10 par value.

Here is a company whose
common stock is positively
its one security obligation.
There is no Harroun pre-
ferred stock, no Harroun
Bond issue, no Harroun
funded debt.
The Harroun Motors Cor-
poration does not even owe
for a single dollar of bor-
rowed money
Its financial slate is abso-
lutely clean of all security
obligation except the one it
owes to those who have
bought its stock.

PEOPLE

A GREAT BUY AT $9

with a profitable practice of a most
conservative character and a promi-
nent advocate of legislative reforms
to relieve the condition of the poor
before his first book, "The Conquest,"
was published. It dealt with social
conditions of an ultra-modern indus-
trial society and received instant rec-
ognition. Mr. Nyburg's latest book,
"The Chosen People," places him in
the front rank of American novelists.
It has been selected by H. W. Boyn-
ton, the noted critic, as one of "the
outstanding novels of the season" in
his review in the New York Nation.
"The Chosen People" is being dis-
cussed and commented upon in re-
views in the best literary papers, in
the Jewish press, and in the Jewish
pulpit. It is a novel of the Jews in
America and strikes a note unheard
of in American fiction. It deals with
the activities of a brilliant young rabbi
of a fashionable temple in Baltimore
who attempts to awaken his congre-
gation to an appreciation of the spir-
itual. Mr. Nyburg very cleverly por-
trays the feminine, worshipful and
proud element that threatens to engulf
the idealistic rabbi in the same smug
viewpoint of his congregation. The
rabbi takes an active part in strike
of clothing workers, most of whom
are Russian Jews. He comes thereby
in conflict with members of his own
congregation who own the shops. His
attempt to reconcile the capitalists
with the teachings of brotherhood
and union is most interesting. A
pleasing love theme runs through the
story. The publishers of the book,
J. B. Lippincott Co., Philadelphia, an-
nounce that "The Chosen People" is
one of their "best sellers" of the year.
Critics are in accord in predicting a
notable career to the young Jewish
novelist.

The convention of the Middle Atlan-
tic States Federation of Young Men's
Hebrew Association will meet in Wash-
ington Sept. 2 and 3.

What can you expect from
your investment in Harroun
stock?
It is a fair question—a
question for which you your-
self can easily deduce an an-
swer based on the history of
this security.
First marketed at $5, Octo-
ber 1 of last year, this stock
advanced to $5.50 in 30 days,
as the result of the acquire-
ment of its first factories and
real estate.
In 22 days more Harroun
stock advanced to $6, fol-
lowing the breaking of
ground for the new factories,
under the terms of a highly
advantageous building con-
tract.

vance, to $8.
Their equipment was fol-
lowed, April 18, by an ad-
vance to the present price of
$9 a share.

A Record-Breaker

Five advances in six
months!

None of them arbitrary but
each with a definite and thor-
oughly solid foundation of
added value in each share of
stock! That is the Harroun
Motors record—a record un-
equaled, we believe, by that
of any other industrial secur-
ity at a similar stage.
That this added value was
always present is fully
proven by the fact that, at
each quotation the public
bought an increased amount
of this security, by far the
greatest subscription being
that accorded it at the 3t8
price prevailing from March
14 to April 18.
