Charles Tohren, formerly a subject
of King Oscar, of Sweden, who came
20 the United States twenty-three
years ago, is having trouble with his
naturalization papers. In 1888 he
took out his first papers and the
clerk of court at that time took his
name as Ceerly Tolven. This name
was carried on down through books
and papers and when his final papers
were made out in 1898 his name was
spelled Ceerly Tolven. Mr.. Tohrer
intends to leave for Sweden today
but cannot travel as a u. S. citizen
under the name on the naturalization
papers. Through his attorney he
filed a petition with the clerk of court
yesterday to have a correction made.
Judge Willcockson granted an order
nun-pro-tunc, which will allow the cor,
recting of his name.

SAVE Penn COLLEGE
Express Your Money Into Heaven
Via the Only Route.

You can't take your money with you
when you graduate from earth. But
if you wish you can invest part of
ii in an educational institution which
will train others to think, and know,
and do. This will make them strong
er characters and larger souls. Thus
you will translate your money into
something that they can take with
them when they graduate from earth.
If you invest your money in an En-
dowment Fund for Penn College, only
the income can be spent. The princi-
pal remains intact forever. The in
terest works every year and so you
keep on, ages after you have gone
from here, translating your money in
to those qualities of the human mind
and soul that are legal-tender in the
Kingdom of Heaven.
Your fathers and mothers put for
tunes as well as lives into giving you
better privileges for liberty and soul
enjoyment than they possessed. They
translated their funds as well as
themselves into the advanced charac-
ter of modern living. You have bene-
flied and will take with you when you
graduate, certain qualities and valu-
able experiences which you could new
er have possessed if they had not
done as they did. You can't prove
yourself as big-hearted as they proved
emselyes, If you don't do something
for the boys and girls growing up
around you.
Why does Penn College need an en-
dowment?
Somebody else paid one-half the ex-
pense of educating the boys and girls
who have attended Penn College. You
may have had an idea that paying tut
ton was paying all it cost the college.
But never in all your marketing or
shopping did you find in any store
or on any bargain counter-such a
bargain as Penn college has cheerful
ly offered you year after year for thir
ty-eight years. At just half the cost
your boys and girls have been train
ed, and the goods were delivered.
They were not damaged. They were
full quality and full measurement and
at half cost
This result was possible by three
methods. Expenses were kept at the
lowest point compatible with good re-
suits; faithful officials administered
economically the income received: ap-
preciative friends made up deficits.
1t is time now to make a permanent
endowment of Penn college so that by
continuing the first two methods, the
third one may be eliminated That
third method savors too much of char
ity. Let us avoid deficits by secur-
ing a permanent competence.
Expenses can't be cut any lower and
maintain the standard Economical
administration has reached the height
of beating the average by one-sixth or
about II per cent. Can more be ex-
peCted? Endowment is deserved by
the record, but the verdict rests with
you. The evidence is all in. The
jury is considering Are we going to
sentence Penn college to death?
What does Penn college do with all
the money?
