In the March American Magazine a writer says: “Men have been living on this world for many centuries. They havq traded in their lives for many different things—fame, money, power. But the consensus of opinion through the ages is that the thing most to be desired is haupiness. No man can be really happy unless his conscience is clear; therefore, it pass to be honest and to treat the Olger fellow as one would like to be treated. No one can be happy who sacrifices his health: therefore, fame, and too much money—either of which usually demand health in exchange—are not to be desired. No man can have the highest happiness unless lie can feel that, he is doing a little good by living, that lie is going to leave the world a bit better after be has gone. Then ■ fore, it pays to bring chikrren into the world and care for them; it pays to lie a good neighbor, and a good employer and a good friend. ' PUBLIC SALE.

Make Your Dollars Count < Come See the Chalmers : y~~ “ "*' ~ , Chalmers 7-Passenger, $1350 •What is it that sets Chalmers cars apart from all others? Why is the Chalmers a better value than many other cars —some of much higher price?

Here are a few* reasons. Only a few. Read them. Then come to us and let us prove to you that meaning of the word Quality— in a motor car. Materials The Chalmers, inch for inch, pound for pound, starts high above the other cars near it, in size or price. Chalmers selects only the finest raw materials. For the frame —carbon steel. For the axle shafts and propeller shaft —chrome nickel. For the front axle —drop forged carbon steel. For the motor casting — close-grained gray iron. For the rear gears—nickel steel, heat treated to secure hardness and toughness. For' the transmission housing—aluminum alloy. So it goes throughout the car from end to end. Examine the Chalmers carefully. The deeper you go the deeper you are impressed with the quality of Chalmers materials. Manufacture Chalmers builds “from the ground up" in Chalmers own shops. Motors are Chalmers built, from rough castings to the final test. Built with skill, perfect facilities am} untold care. Motor The motor is a light weight, high power six. Walls are tested for uniform thickness, to prevent the possibility of distorton and loss of compression. A specially designed intake manifold improves carburetion. Handles fuel economically. Insures easy starting in cold weather. The crankshaft is designed to transmit maximum power of the motor without distortion or vibration. A one-piece crankshaft of drop forged carbon steel, heat treated. Noted for sturdiness. Strength. Rigidity. Balanced while rotating at high speed on a special machine. The balancing weights are a unit with the shaft.

All of the above means Quality. The kind of quality you need in the car you buy, and the kind of quality you GET in the Chalmers Touring Car, 7-passcngcr . $1350 Touring Sedan, 7-passcngcr .
