I 3400 I'. p. m. Chalmers Means Gallant The swift, silent breathing of the unique engine of the new 3400 r. p.

m. Chalmers is faster than that of any other car on the road. Without gasp or throb, this weird, aluminum-lunged beast inhales a mist of gasoline through the tiny nostril in its carburetor so rapidly that it can spin its motor at the supreme velocity of 3400 revolutions per minute. High engine speed in a racer means just one thingtrack -burning car speed. But the high -speed engine of the 3400 1'.

p. m. Chalmers means automobile attributes not measured in mere speed alone. It means the whole gamut of performance most desired by men and women who demand more from a car than a beltful of racing records. Chalmers engineers have translated superlative engine speed into the composite boon of pick -up, poise, and power.

Chalmers does everything a car should do. It wrings 18 miles of gallant going out of every gallon of gas, a mile a minute if you're keen for speed. Always there is the feeling of velour beneath my accelerator foot. This car has the liveliness of a spirited mare, with a Pullman -like stability that keeps your back -seat passengers from rattling around like peas in a pod, which happens in so many ether light, fast cars. This able Six is heavy enough and so finely poised that its four wheels stay always on the ground, with direction as straight as a bullet.

By transforming this car's superabundance of brute might into all-round performance, Chalmers engineering has saved you from $150 to $200 worth of fuel per year. So it's a sane and sensible buy from every slantand the smart ones whose sense of values hasn't been blunted by prosperity are dropping around with their check -books. $1050 Detroit.
