19X5 Features rafClc Transmission es Peak Motor Four-Wheel Brakes Balloon Tires Standard Equipment

When you buy a car today, you have a right to ask tor-— —the powerful performance of a master motor; —the certain action of a clashproof transmission; —the cushioned comfort of balloon tires; —the added safety of fourwheel brakes; —and the assurance of a 100 per cent rear axle. To buy a car that offers less is to choose a car no longer modem. In the 1925 Chandler, you have the absolute freedom from gear-shifting evils pro-

vided only by the traffic Transmission. You have the matchless performance capacity of the Pikes Peak Motor — the pillowy comfort of genuine super-size balloon tires(standard equipment)—and the extra security of front wheel brakes which Chandler offers optionally at a moderate extra charge. See the 1925 Chandler! Drive it through an exhaustive test! No other car so splendidly combines all that progressive design has developed with all that sound engineering and public use have proved!

(The Traffic Transmission is built complete in the Chandler plant under Campbell patents)

New Finds Strengthen Theory T hat He Was Not First in Americau Washington.—The recent discovery on Long Island of skeletons showing evidences of great antiquity has stimulated anew the old controversy as to rho discovered America. The recent discovery Is said to strengthen the case against Christopher Columbus as the real discoverer. In fact, hiMori- 1 cal science now seems to be leaning more and more toward the belief that centuries before Columbus was lorn America had been discovered and was , fairly well* known to Europeans Tin* discovery at Malba, Long Island, | attracted especial attention because, experts In anatomy said that the skeletons unquestionably were those I of white men and not of Indians, j Further, It was clear to the experts! that the skeletons were at least sis i centuries old. The best-known story of early Nurse discovery and occupation of Aroeriean soil is that told in Longfellow’s poem, “The Skeleton in Armor.” hmigfellow was familiar with the old stone tower which has stood nt Newport, R. I., for so long that there Is no trace of Its origin. It was old when the I’ilgrlm fathers landed at Plymouth Rock. In 1831 a skeleton, clad In ancient armor, was unearthed near Fall River, Mass. The armor was of a character traceable to the Norse civilization of a very early date. Longfellow connected the two relics— the tower and the armed skeleton— and wove his fantastic ballad about them. The ancient Icelandic and Scandanavlan sagas make many refen-nres to a vast land across the western ocean which, it Is contended, could not be other than the American continent. It was believed to be an Island of comparatively small size. Greenland, of course, was well known and colonized centuries before the day of Columbus and the sagas seem to indicate that voyages were made down to the American mainland.

FABRIC TIRES 30x3 and 30x3y2 inch TJ'OR many years the USCO 1? Fabric has been the standard of value in a fabric tire. It’s a better tire today for the li^ht-car owner than a cheap cord of unknown make. Costs less and gives more. The USCO Fabric will give you a lot of tire service for the money.
