in the several departments of the other

plained bitterly of these statements say-
ing no account had been taken of mileage

said these figures had been obtained in

not fair to publish them in the shape they
had been presented.

examine Mr. Fitiegrald and develop

Drive This Car Yourself!
Arrange for a Labor Day Demonstration
and Take the Ladies of Your Family Along
The Chalmers Six-40 seven-passenger touring car has the won-
derful valve-in-head motor with overhead camshaft which is taking
the public by storm just as the same type of motor swept everything
before it at this year s speedway races.
The Labor Day holiday offers you the opportunity to drive this
car yourself.
Arrange with us for demonstra-
tion on that day and take the ladies
of your family along.
After all they are the real judges
of style beauty and comfort in a
motor car and will be interested in
its artistic "coach" finish.aristocratic
fenders and smart wheels.
You're the best judge of its me-
chanical features. .
Step on the Accelerator
Notice the "trigger quick" re-
sponse. Feel the thrill as it leaps away with
the strength of its 20 more power.
You will realiie that you have a
real power plant at your command.
. Listen to the Motor
It has a healthy purr.
When you get behind the wheel of
this car you experience a sensation of
having surplus power.
You will gain a genuine affection
for both the sound and feel of this
motor.
There is nothing like it in 'any
other American stock car.
Ask the Ladies About ;
Comfort
We believe that this is the easiest
riding motor car ever built but we
are willing to abide by the decision
of the ladies after they sit in it or
better still ride in it.
. We already have many demon-
strations booked ahead. See us to-
day or telephone for a demonstration
appointment
Then you will understand why the
Chalmers Company shipped more
cars in July and August than in any
two previous months in ita history.
