Frame doesn't look Schwinn and neither does that serial number from the teens era Schwinn.

Its excelsior built 1916-1922 during this time some Schwinns were made by excelsior which is why you see this chain ring on some Schwinns of the era.

Yup, Excelsior built right here in my hometown on Michigan City, In.... The factory was sold to D.P. Harris in 1936 I believe....as a matter of fact, 2014 Excelsiors will be available for purchase sometime mid June being distributed by my bike shop... "MyBike of Michigan City"
