feel about Mother. Here’s a suggestion
that will say more than words. This year
remember Mom with a gift of beauty
and love . . . remember her with a gift
of flowers.
Why not call or drop in soon and
let us arrange a bouquet or corsage of
her favorites to be delivered on Mother’s
Day. You’ll be giving her the perfect
gift . . . one that will make her day com-

Finest engine
ever put
in an automobile
With so many engines claiming newness . . ,
how can we call FirePower the only new typo
engine today? The answer’s very simple, and
one you ought to know before you invest in a car.
The fact is that engine “improvements” happen
every year . . . but a basically new motor car
engine is a very rare thing. And FirePower is
the most basic new development since Chrys-
ler introduced high-compression in 1924!
To get to the heart of the matter, just go to
the heart of the engine . . . the combustion
chamber where the spark fires gas into power.
Here Chrysler brings you something no car
has had till now ... a Hemispherical combus-
tion chamber . . . the only perfect and ideal
combustion chamber in any passenger car.
Here the same amount of gasoline delivers you
far more energy than it could in any other car.

What this means to the man at FirePower*®
wheel is impossible to tell you till you fair,
that wheel yourself. Firepower’s 180 horse-
power can outperform any other engine on the
road, even on regular grade gas.

Remember, too, thaj Chrysler now offers the
wondrous road-ease of new Oriflow shock
absorbers with twice the shock-absorbing
power of any others . . . and the exclusive
safety and delight of Hydraguide power steer-
ing* which takes four-fifths of the work out
of steering! You can learn for yourself how
Chrysler has changed your motoring life by
seeing your Chrysler dealer now!
