HERE are two Chandler Six models which the big and constantly expanding Chandler factory production has never been able to build in volume that could supply the demand of discriminating motor car purchasers. They are the Chandler Six Touring Carand Dispatch Car, the former a big, handsome, roomy, comfortable, real seven-passenger car; and the latter a trim, smaller car, suggestive in its appearance of all the good things of outdoor life. The Dispatch Car has a touch of snappy style in its clean lines, and is strikingly finished in the beautiful Chandler Rainbow Blue. It seats four persons in restful comfort. Both the Chandler Six Touring and Dispatch Cars are mounted on the same standard Chandler chassis, developed, through seven years of manufacture, to a surpassing point of excellence and famous for its really marvelous motor. The Chandler Car is priced much lower than other cars which may, perhaps, compare with it. If you, want yovir new Chandler iHis Spring', place your order now SIX SPLENDID BODY TYPES Seven-Passener Tcuring Car, S1S95 Four-Passener Roadster. S1S9S Four-Passenger Dispatch Car, $1975 Seven-Passenger Sedan, S2S95 Four-Passenger Coupe, S2795 Limousine, $3395 (All prices, o. b. Cleveland, Ohio)
