Some Observatons, Hints and Precautions
Concerning Swarthmore Real Estate
Ralph F. Channell, 52, of 510 N'orth Chester road, died
last Thursday in Hahnemann Hospital, Philadelphia, after a
hrief illness.' Onl'O a few weeks ago ~[r. Channell was
appointed to fill tl;e vacancy in Borough Council left, by the
resignation of Thomas B. ~rcCai:c.
He was Philadelphia representative of the fire-~rick fir~
of Hiram Schwank's Sons, of Johnstown, and was a thirtythird degree Mason and a ~ill·:ner.
."
Surviving arc his wife, !\-[rs. Elizabeth Channell,
~I iss Elizabeth Channell. Funeral services were held last
I ~aturday afternoon at the Swarthmore Presbyterian ;Church,
with the Rev. Dr. John Ellery Tuttle officiating. Intermerit
was in East Lawn Cemetery.
By William Eastburn Witham
Vice-President, Wm. H. Wilson Co.
\Vhat is the Real ~state situation in Swarthmore today?
That can be answered best by reviewing the growth of
Swarthmore as a suburb. \Vith the College as a nucleus,
Swarthmore was little more than a small neighborhood up
to the early nineties. Then came a sprinkling of homes on
the village side, the Union Church, the Strath Haven Inn ,
the Prep School and Borough Hall, the Fire Company, with
its first "eye-dropper" chemical equipn1ent, and the Philadelphia trains carrying increasing numbers of daily commuters. The Inn played an important part by attracting
Summer guests-many of whom later built homes in the
borough.
The decade beginning with 1900 saw Swarthmore an
honest-to-goodness suburb. But land values were still quite
low, because building lots were plentiful. Then came the
period of the automobile, which attracted increasing numbers of suburbanites by robbing country life of some of
its "terrors", and which encouraged the expansion of the
College Hill section-thus tending to increase the availability
of home sites at a distance from station, but, at the same
time, keeping market values close to the old level.
\Vartime expansion and inflation influenced suburbs generally, but Swarthmore valu"s ,were ilOt affected commensurately by comparison with Main I.ine properties, where
electrification also played a most important part. That was
the era when a premium, or bonus, was paid for a roof or
shelter. The purchasing value of a dollar shrank, but
buildings did not increase in value. They never do.
'fhe present decade 'saw Swarthmore come into its own
and the real estate advertising in the Philadelphia papers
it has enjoyed during the past four or five years has evened
the score and at times threatened to raise "talking values"
above equal intrinsic values in other Philadelphia suburbs.
The law of supply and demand applies to any given suburb
to a degree, but not exclusively so. Homes in other suburbs
hecome increasingly competitive when prices reach prohibitive levels. Striking examples of" t"li.-s reaction are to· be
seen in Lansdowne and its environs. These ·sections enjoyed a most active real estate market until ()wners of homes
and of land throttled sales by demanding extortionate prices.
As a result, during the past three years, real estatc in that
locality has been dead-sheriff's sales numerous. 'foo many
residential sites were held at business district valuations.
Today Swarthmore real estate is in a very satisfactory
condition. 'fo be sure, there arc still a few swollen spots
and a few deplorable instances of home owners" saddled
with depreciated properties bought unwisely; but experience, education or sad necessity will correct these exceptional cases.

To the Citizens of Swarthmore:I am taking the liberty. (as I rarely do) to address yo~
over m'O official signature. In my twenty-five years in ~
Swarth~ore, I have never seen so many men feel the per- t
sonal loss as in the passing of Ralph Channell.
As so many have said, "He was a man's man." Truly "
Chester Road will be a lonely place in the eady morning ,
for many of \IS. I think woe loved him for the manly way
in which he carried his heavy burden. And for the soul
of the man that shone through those laughing eyes, and his
wonderful smile. A true friend. Can I say more'? Interested in everything that made for "the betterment of Swarthmore.
'fhe last position he took as a duty, as duty loomed large
111 his horizon.

Swarthmore is fortunate to have had "Ralph ·F. Channell
as one of its citizens, and no community has many "~uch
men amollg its numbers. I considered hini· one of those
rare men we fortunately meet at times, in whom one may
have perfect confidence. My faith in him was unquestioned,
and, knowing him strengthened my faith in other men.
He ,~as steadfast and dependable; the winds of Fate
blew sfrong against him, b~t he ~id not drag anchor. He
was at on"ce .positive and kind. There was no trouble· to
understand his attitude or position toward any matter. He
had faith in the young, and expected them to do well.
In his unexpected death our Council has lost a valuable
member and our community one of its finest men. It is
",ith deep feeling I pen this last brief tribute. I loved him
living, and I love him still.

The League of Women Voters of
Swarthmore held an open meeting in
the Woman's Club house, Monday evening, April 29, to discuss "Our
Town." Ol1r Bur2'e~~, ~!r. Carroll
Thayer, with interesting anecdote and
humorous allusion, contrasted the difference between the duties of this office when he held it twenty J"ears ago
and now. In those early days, the
Burgess was not only Swarthmore's
only policeman, but acted as dog catcher as well, and his varied and onerous
duties kept him busy most of the
twenty-four hours of thc day.
}. Horace Walter, President of
Council, gave a comprehensive outline
of the development of the general borough laws which govern the powers
and duties \of a borough council. Mr.
Walter urged our citizens to consider
well the kind of community in which
they wallt to live, whether a quiet,
friendly village. or a bustling business
town; and then sec to it that only
those councilmen are elected to office
who are in sympathy with the desired
program.
Frank Gctz gave a clear exposition
of the methods of taxation, and of the
relation of the local assessor, not only
to the county and state authorities, but
to the individual citizen and his proper·
ty as weli.
Judge Ulrich, magistrate, said that
while keeping the peace in Swarthmore might seem like a very easy job,
it was nevertheless difficult to be always entirely fair and just, no matt~r
how greatly onc might desire to be so.
He sl>oke of many interesting incidents
in cOJlnection with cases which had
come before him, and stressed the importance of keeping young offcnders
out of institutions whencver possible.
In the gcneral and ;l1terested discussion which followed thesc talks, MI".

As a matter of fact, nearly one.fourth of all the automobiles in nse today are Model T Fords. Millions of
them can he driven two, three and even five more years
with reasonable care and proper replacements. Figures
show Ihat the average life is seven years.
Don't sacrifice your Model T, therefore, but take it to

putting it in Al shape. A very small expenditure may be
the means of giving you thousauds of :miles of additional
service.

motor and transmission completely overhauled. This
price includes new bearings, reboring cylinders and any
other work necessnry. Part& are extra.
Valves can be gronnd and carbon removed for $3 to
U. The cost of tightening aU main hearings is only $6.
The labor cbarge for overhauling the front axle is $4.50

the starting motor is $3. A lahor charge of approximately $2.50 covers the overhauling of the generator.
It will pay yon, therefore, to see your Ford dealer

motor roads radiating from Philadelphia like the spokes of a wheel. Connecting these radial roads are other
highways. which follow directions determined by conditions that exi~ted

most part they are without co-ordination. As a result, motor traffic Ullfamiliar with the regional routes is
compelled to make long detours or
drive into and through Philadelphia in
order to pass through the district.

Last year expenses were higher than

$300 will he enough to enCQurage the

The players receive nothing for their

dollars must be made to all of the visiting teams, the ground must be rented

For the Packard Eight is a long..

cision protected. Its characteristic
beauty is always up to date, for
Packard has never depreciated
-:;ars in the hands of owners by
radical changes in design.
Most owners, therefore, keep their
Packards twice as long as they
once kept ordinary cars. This
means that they enjoy Packard
luxury at costs no greater than
they would pay for motoring in
cars with far less to offer in prestig~ in beauty and in performance.

Why not invest now in a Packard
Eight? Packard offers three com..
plete lines at three distinct ranges
of price. Each model in each line
is a Packard in every sense of the
word. Packard builds to a single
standard of quality - the highest.
The differences lie only in size,
power and the degree of individ..
uality available in appointments,
upholstery and color.
The Packard Standard Eight (reduced March 4th) is priced at
$2275 to $2675 at the factory.
The Custom Eight lists at $3175
to $3850. The Eight De Luxe
ranges from $4585 to $5985with individual custom cars on
the De Luxe chassis available on
order.
When may we place a Packard
Eight at your disposal for adem..
onstration drive?
If you
prefer to buyout of income, you
will. find the Packard Po.yment Plan
most attractive. Many take POSsesSi011
of their new c~rs tvithout any cash outlay because the used car allowance
equals or exceeds the down payment.

The Treasurer, Thomas W. Andrew, read his report, whid

The report of Dr. A. F. Jackson, Chairman of the Cas'

on a par with the work he did as clerk of the court in

noteworthy, and which added its full share of humor.
The part of Alice was taken by M. Marcia Perry, who

the sinking fund decreased to ~ mill, making a total borough tax of twelve mills.

Frank S. Reitzel, Chairman of the Finance Committee, in
prcsenting the budget for the next twelve months reported
that about $49,000 or $50,000 would be necessary. This increase over the budget of $42,000 for last year is necessitated, Mr. Reitzel declared, by an expense of $1600 for additional sewer connections, $3,000 for interest on notes; the
expense of a new police car; meeting notes on the new
fire engine purchased thissear; as well as costs of widening
'he doors of the fire house and other incidentals wllich will
have to be taken car"c ;'of this ;year.
Mr. Reitzel said there was additional reason for increasing the millage in order to reduce the $62,500 worth of outstanding notes. It was decided that these notes should be
taken over this year by a bond issue and reduced by $5,000
each year.
Councilman Paul M, Freedley raised the only dissenting
voice against the increase. Mr, Freedley said he thought that
each department should cut its expenses to the limit and
that the Borough should not raise the taxes in order to pay
for permanent improvements. in the next few years. He
said he would be willing to cut down the funds which the
Highway Department thought necessary. Mr. Freedley
said he favored a bond issue at once which would provide

received by all the people of the community, Swarthmore is a rare community-a community that knows and appreciates the value of a good public 1

the Swarthmore sewHS directly from
the Pike.
Councilman Bassett said that the
flooding of the water over the properties of the petitioners was caused by
ccrtain changes made in the yard at the
Springfield School on the Baltimore

My mother, ah! how the old memorics are stirred
In my world-wcaried heart at the sound of that word,
How all the remembrance of childhood's bright days,
Come over my heart like the sun's cheering rays;
How memory·s bright thoughts weave with pleasurc or pain
The scenes I havc known to know ncver again.
How gent1" your love and how tender your care
:: \Vhcn I knelt at your knee with my first lisping prayer;
, Ere my heart had grown bitter with sorrow and strife,
_ Or the shadow of mourning had darkened my life.

So if your reason for not own..
ing a Packard is your insistence
upon having a new car every
two years, regardless-well. ,it's
a reason, but hardly sound.
The somewhat higher first cost
of the Packard Standard Eight
over ordinary cars is completely
offset by the fact that Packard
cars are built to provide and do
provide many extra thousands
of miles of luxurious, trouble.
free transportation. Their char·
actc:-lstic beauty 0 f line is
always up to date, for Packard
has never depreciated cars ·1n

changes in design.
Because if you buy a new
car every 20 months or f.O, you
are not getting fuil value in
motoring luxury for the rr.oney
you spend. You are paying too
many profits and taking too
much depreciation. You arc pa )'.

Most owners, therefore, keep
their Packards at least twice

These owners wisely enjoy the

Packard transportation at lesser
car costs.

----.-- DRAMA SECTION PROGRAM
AT CLUB NEXT WEEK
The Drama Section of the \Vornell's
Club of Swarthmore will present two
short plays Tuesday afternoon, May 21.
The two plays are "The Trimplet", a
symbolic piece, and "Nevertheless," an
.
interlude before the curtains.
Both of these l)lays are by Stuart
\Valker and have heen uscd for several
years in his Portmanteau Theater. which
is a frauk outgrowth of the old toy theater. ~Ir. \Valker and his diminutive productions are familiar in almost every
American city.
"The Trimplet" is in a purely poetic
yein; it deals with a certain magic thing
which can cure all ills of whoever finds
it. The search and finding constitute
the action of the piece. Nevertheless
tells of the regeneration of a burglar
through two children, a word and a
dictionary.
The plays will be presented at 2 :30.
The casts are:

This little incident is not one which

THE Ford Motor Company is maldng ~ JI8IIr e&rt

Because of this policy and heeause of die

tinue to supply parts as long as they are needed
by Ford owners.
So that you may get the greatest use from your
MOllel T, we suggest tI18t you take it to the nearest Ford dealer and have him estimate on the cost
of any replacement parts that may be necessary.
You will find this the economieal thing to do
because a small expenditure now will help to
preveut costlier repairs later on, increase the
value of the car, and give you thousands of miles
of additional service.
For a lahor charge of only $2.60 yon can have
yo~t:!" generllt~r put in first-class condition. A new
universal joint will be installed for a labor' cost
of $3. Overhauling the carburetor COSls $1.50;
steering gear, $3.50; radiator, $7.50. A complete
overhauling of the rear axle assembly runs between $5.75 and $7 for labor. An average price
of $22.50 covers the overhauling of the motor
and transmission.
These prices are for labor only because the
need and number of new parts depend on the
condition of each car. The cost of these parts is
low, however, because of the Ford policy of mannfacturing and selling at a small margin of profit.

during the season, reviewing a book,
reading a poem or play, discussing a
current event or in some way contributing toward the entertainment or enlightenment of its members .
Meetings are held on Mondays at
the homes of those belonging to this
group, the large attendance often
straining to capacity the homes.

particularly to the production of plays
of amateur organizations.
The firsf of the two one-act plays
presented was "Thc Trimplet," which is
aile of Stuart \Valkcr's best known
works. This play, which is a very
poetical piece, was done exceedingly

'amiual reduction in electric rates ••. the fifth large
rate reduction since 1922 to residential users of
electricity. This reduction, which1:'ffects more than
92 per cent of our domestic customers, is made possible because of economies of operation and because of the
greater use ofelectricity by the current-consuming public,
This is tbe Third Step
Rate, so well-known in

after you have used forty.eight kilowatt- .

rate that enables you to usc an electric
range, electric refrigerator, electric iron·
ing machine or other similar lahor·savers,
••• These are the Three Steps of the
residential rate for electric service
Actually, this means that you will pay substantially
less for the electric service you have been using for
washing, cleaning, hand ironing and table cooking, as
well as for lighting.
Studies are now under way of the tariffs covering
the balance of the territory included in the proposed
consolidation of properties allllounced May 10th, 1929,
with the thought of making reductions in them, so that
all may share in the benefits derived from the merging
of all of the companies concerned into one strong unit.

Amhust avenue. Mr. Lansburgh was
bead of the Department of Labor and
Industry in the Governor Pinchot administration.
"There is absolutely no excuse for
the Swarthmore avenue crossing not
being protected, at least by a flashing
-electric light. Even if Borough Council must pay the entire cost of having
this installed it should be done at once.
"I have had occasion to study safety
-devices for R. R. grade crossings and
I know that the signal flash lights
which operate when a train approaches
are now perfected to the point that
they are absolutely infallible."
l\Ir. Lansburgh said that he wrote
to the Superintendent of Public Safety
of the H. R. a few days ago about the
crossing and had received a reply that
His letter had been turned over to the

have been received by The Swarthmorean protesting against the crossing
at Swarthmore avenue. They do not
indicate the number of phone calls we
have had about the subject.
When the zoning ordinance was prepared a few years ago a special zoniug
commission was named by Council to
make the plans. Why can't a similar
advisory commission be named by
Council to study the grade crossings
in Swarthmore and find out just how
these crossings can best be eliminated?

Possibly then, Swarthmore might be

Since the increased traffic through
Swarthmore, due to the popularity of

the grade crossing has assumed th~
proportions of a first-class de~th-trap.
Most residents who use the crossing each

Early indications are that the sale of
season tickets for Chautauqua this year
will surpass all records and that a good
sized balance will be turned over to the
Public Library.
Season tickets this. ye,.r are being
sold at lower price than ever before,
the charge for adults being only $2 as
(ompared with $3 last year and the
(harge for children being $1 as compared with $2 last year. R. Chester
Spel1ce~, who is head of the Swarthmore guarantors, wishes it emphasized
however that children above the eighth
grade in the Swarthmore public schools
will be required to have adult tickets.
Chau1aQqua opens a week from next
Tuesday in the big tent on the PJ;'ep
School grounds. A four day program
has been arrailged "'ith entertainment
provided both afternoon and evening
as well as Junior Chautauqua for the
children.
Tickets may be obtained at the
Swarthmore Newstand, Buchner's, the
bank, and a number of other downtown
places as well as from all of the guarantors. The borough is being canvassed
this week by the guarantors who are
aiming at selling. at least one ticket to
c\'ery family.
The feature speaker of the Swartqmore program will be Don Manuel TelIcz, the Mexican ambassador, who will
tell intimate facts about our southern
neighbor that few of us have ever
heard.
This year the annual Chautauqua
play is to be "Skidding," an honest
American comedy. It is described as a
dh·erting comedy-drama of love and
politics.
A visit at this play will initiate you
as guests into the Hardy household.
for two hours. and a half you will live
with these good people and be an eye
witness of theil" family life, which at
times is none too complacent; but at
all times delightfully humorous.
The story is American throughout.
Its locale is a western state where
Judge Hardy is up for renomination in
the district court. The judge is one
of those sturdy old Americans to whom
honor means more than it apparently
docs to oUf lllodern public officers. He
refuses to barter his honor for nomination and is defeated; but in defeat is
compensated by advancement to the
Supreme Court, which had been his
life-long ambition, and which comes
when his fortunes are at the lowest
ebb.
The judge's family is typically American and it is in the picture of this
family life that the ~u4iencc is lifted
right over the footlights, as it were,
and made part of the interesting
family.

There is Mrs. Hardy; one of those
priceless mothers whose whole life is
bound up in that of her children, her
husband and her household duties.
The author has woven together a
play that is full of human interest that

Nearly five hundred signatures have
been attached to the petitions asking
Borough Council to seek add~d protection for the grade crossing at
Swarthmore avenue. The petition is the
direct result of the fatal accident in
the early morning of May 20, when
George D. Hodgson, of 30 Amherst avenue, was killed and his wi~ow, Mrs.
Beatrice Hodgson, his sister, Miss Margaret Hodgson, and a friend, Norman
R. "Vitt, of Spring City, were injured.
Since the regular meeting of Borough Council scheduled for last night
was not held because of Memorial Day
the petitions will not be presented until
next Thursday night, June 6.
Richard H. Lansburgh, of Amherst
avenue, who last week was reported
as having sent a letter to th!! Pennsylvania Railroad complaining against
conditions at the crossing, stated a few
days ago that he had just received a
reply from R. K. Rochester, gellcral
manager of the Eastern Division, stating that he had instructed the General
Superintendent W. M. Wardrop stationed at Wilmington to investigate the
crossing and consider the placing of a
flash signal or of taking what other
steps are advisable.
Feeling still runs high in the borough
against the conditions at the Swarthmore avenue crossing and a survey of
the number of cars using the crossing
now would show that a great many
Swarthmore people are going out of
their way to avoid it.
Miss Margaret Hodgson and Mrs.
Beatrice Hodgson, who were injured in
the accident, have been removed from
the hospital to their home on Amherst
avenue. Mr. \Vitt is still confined to
the Taylor Hospital but is recovering
slowly.

out by the Home and School Committee interested in the project to learn
how many children might use the playgrounds during the summer. The
questionaire, addressed to parents,
asked: The number of children in the
family? Ages? Would they be in
Swarthmore during the summer?
Would they attend a' public playground
if one existed?
The committee· appointed at the last
meeting of the Home and School Association consists of Dr. E. Leroy Mercer, Roy W. Delaplaine, and Mrs. Harold G. Griffin. The committee from the
Vacation Bible School consists of Dr.
J. Jones, Mrs. Samuel M. Palmer, and
Rev. Lloyd P. Stevens. The generlJl
committee consists of Dr. W. Carson
Ryan, Jr., Mrs. W. T. Johnson, Mrs.
Helen Hall and Mrs. Roy P. Lingle.
Last week the Harold Stevenson Post
of the American Legion went
record
as favoring ther playground. Other organizations wiII be asked to enaorse th~
project before next Tuesday evening.
A budget is being prepared which will
be presented to the school board showing how it would be necessary to apportion the funds in order to establish the
playground and qperate it this summer.
The initial cost of proyiding equipme!lt
this year will call for more funds than
may be necessary in future years.

If the. questionnaire shows that there
are not enough chIldren in Swarthmore
to use the playground during July and
August then certainly it should not be
established. On the other hand if there
is a demand for the playground, a few
hundred or even a thousand dollars is
not an exorbitant amount for the
School Board to spend for thc first
year.

difficulty in showing that the playground should be recognized as a

school taxes.
However this difficulty is usually

We believe that the school board
took the steps which it did at the Jast
meeting because they did not feel
enough people wanted the summer
playground. They acted wisely. It will
not be enough to hire a young m:irt or
woman to . direct and supervise the
playground, The school authorities are
usually away or busy with othe,r work
durilig the summc.f. Certainly the superintendent of schools cannot be expected to superintend the playgrounds
during his summer vacation months.
It is llecessa'ry that there be a "Jim"
Stewart or. a half dozen "Jims" who
will take a personal interest in the playground and sec that it is conducted
properly. Some one or ones who will
make the playground their hobby just
as other Swarthmoreans make the
their hobby.

The appeal for help to successfully
establish a summer playground in
Swarthmore (nust be made to the
people of the Borough as much as to
the School Board. Unless some responsible individual or group of in..;
dividuals is ,villing to accept the playground as a hobby, the school board
had hetter put the playground money in
the gymnasium fund.

Sam Drayman, one of Swarthmore's
oldest merchants. opened his fine new
shoe store on Park avenue last week
Sam has a shop which is a credit to th~
other stores in the Park avenue block.
His windows are attractive and his new
store should be a distinct asset to the
business district.
Sam's success in Swarthmore and his
relocation in a newer and larger store
is a good indication of the kind of work
he has been doing during the past ten
years since he came to the Borough.
His success is deserved and all of his
friends in Swarthmore hope that his
ne'w store is only a steppitlg stone- towards further success.

possible for the Library Association this
year no superintendent will be provided
by the Chautauqua Association, but
several leading citizens as well as former Chautauqua superintendents who
live in Swarthmore have volunteered to
serve. The money ordinarily p'aid for
the superintendent will therefore be
saved and turned over to the Library
Association.
Among those who will probably act
as superintendents are R. Chester

past, Harold Barnes. Dr. Jesse H.

THE Model T was so strongly and sturdily buDt that it
is still rendering reliable, economical service to motor·
ists in every section of the country. Millions of these
cars can he pnt in shape for two, three and five more
years of use at very small cost.
So that you may haye this work done economjcally
and satisfactorily, the Ford Motor Company is still devoting a considerable section of its plants to the manu·
facture of Model T parts. It will continue to do 80 B8
