A Feature of the Shows

It is no exaggeration to say that our new "Glenbrook" model has been a sensational feature of both the national and local auto' mobile shows. Its fame has traveled from .state to state, city to city, and it now occupies an unchallenged position of leadership in the field of fivepassenger cars. In our long experience as manu' facturers, we have never produced a model that has so quickly won its way to public favor. Everyone, apparently, recognized in the "Glcnbrook" an engineer' ing and designing achievement of the utmost importance. Designed and built in the Paige

shops and powered with our new six'cy linder motor it surpasses every standard heretofore accepted as the best in fivepas' senger motor cars. The "Glenbrook" is now one of the fastest selling cars on the American market and the demand is increasing with each succeed' ing day. Already our production schedule has been sorely taxed and orders for spring delivery will undoubtedly result in an oversold condition. Compare it with any five passenger car that the market affords and determine whether it is not, indeed, the greatest dollar'for'dollar value in the light six field

LOCATING T1IK SQUHAK. Most pvcrj'orif knows the noi?es of a squeaky Fprincr, remarks a contributor to American Motorist writing under the caption, "Automobiles That do Rattling lly." "Hut if you doubt whether It actually is that," he continues, "run your c.r over a smooth road which has a f"-w small holes now and then. Drive over these holes at the rate of about 15 miles an hour. If your car squeaks only when you po over the holes, and rides silent while on the smooth parts, you may be sure that your spring's need oilinp."

SCRAPIXfi CYIilXDRKS. It has Ions been customary to clean gasoline engine cylinders with long-handled scraping tools, the cutting edges of which an; hardened. In scraping a cylinder in this manner, it is important to have the piston in the uppermost position of its sweep, since otherwise the scraping tool is likely to slip into the bore of the cylinder and injure the smooth surface of the cylinder wall. From American Motorist.

In the year 1919 the people of Wisconsin purchased 36,110 automobiles and 4.02S motor trucks. At $1,000 apiece for automobiles, the investment was $3G, 110,000. Assuming that motor trucks cost $1.500 each, this represents an investment of $6. 042. 000 or a grand total of $42.152,000. Using these figures as a basis officials in the motorize the farm "bureau. Goodyear Tiro & Rubber Co. estimate there will be at least 200,000 prospects for motor trucks in 1920.

I road building, allotments beinc: based I on the amount of federal aid for 1 roads which the states receive.

months. It also was pointed out by department of agriculture experts that the extent to which motor vehicles are supplanting the horse on farms is problematical. After a recent survey it was disclosed that at least r.M.firiO farmers In the country own motor trucks which they use on their farms. In many cass the introduction of a truck on a farm indicates provision for increased hauling rather than an actual reduction in the number of horses used. Horses on farms, the report states, reached their maximum in 1913 and since then gradually have been decreasing. Their number on Jan. 1 this year was 21.109.000, a decrease of ,".73.000 head from Jan. 1 last year. The horse market 19 regarded as uncettled. and the future equally uncertain. The best demand during the last year has been in the south.

Ten Minutes with this Elegant lew Chalmers Tells Ton the Story

OU find it starr? at or.ee; th.it it is runmnp; with amarinp; sweetness in a te v seconds, 'ou note no vibration, 'ou call for sored and von ret results. Yon rone

r i - - down and vou detect a willing and tx-rtrct sersnt bcvui everf wish. Ten minutes n'wcs you a recast opinion on motor oars. 'our admiration for n Chalmers deepens. You senn h for the cause and you find it in Hot Spot and Ram's-hotn. You may or ma:, not know that "fas" is worse this year than last, that it is becoming heavier and heavier and harder and harder to "burn." Few engines have met this serious eondition. The nrfat Chalmers engine has. It lakes the low grade "gas," throws it against the Hot Spot, which vaporizes the "gas" into a "cloud," and makes it "line tor luel." Ram's-horn, minus sharp corners and abrupt bends, rushes it to the cylinders at a velocity of 100 miles an hour. Thus the cylinders get a fuel that they cm "burn." ran "digest," instead of "lumpy" or "rainy" kind of "gas.' Not only can you note results in a distinguished smoothness of action, but in your repair bills. For Hot Spot and Ram's-horn provide against thinned out lubrication and consequent burned bearings, scored cylinders, frequent fouling of spark plugs, and wasted "gas" through the exhaust. Ten minutes will tell; and then you, too, will say Chalmers is one of the fewgreat cars of the world.
