Work was given those with the most dependents among the 30.000 who applied at the camps, where most of the men lived while working on the roads.

America is counting cylinders and AMERICA PREFERS THE SIX Since January 1st, buyers have chosen more Chevrolet Sixes than the combined total of all fours and all eights priced below *1000

SIX CYLINDERS NO MORE - NO USS For GREATEST ECONOMY and BUILT-IN SMOOTHNESS With more than six cylinders you sa<.r l hee economy—With less than six cylinders you sacrifice smoothness.

When buying a low-priced ear, do as America is doing: Count cylinders’ And you’ll say, as America is saying: “SIX! No more. No less!" America is saying that in the most convincing way it could possibly be saidl With SALES! Since January 1st, the public has purchased more Chevrolets than the combined total of all four-cylinder cars and all eights priced under $1000. Why? America counted cylinders and came to this conclusion: six is the ideal number lor a car of lowest price! No more, because an engine with extra cylinders is bound to cost more for gas, oil and upkeep. No less, because six is the

smallest number of cylinders you can have in a car and avoid the undesirable effects of inherent vibration. A six, as Chevrolet builds it, is the hnppy medium between two extremes. It gives unexcelled economy. No other motor car engine in America today costs so little for gas, oil and upkeep. It gives built-in smoothness. From 6 miles an hour to 65 or 70, Chevrolet is quietly, comfortably, enjoyably smooth. And because of this smoothness—plus the fact that the whole car is so solidly, ruggedly f built—Chevrolet is a low-priced automobile that really stands up. It’s a good, reliable, economical car the day you buy

it. . . and it keeps on being good, reliable, economical after 5,000—10,000— 15,000 miles of driving. In addition, Chevrolet is a modem car, with Free Wheeling, Syncro-Mesh gearshifting, Fisher bodies—and many other advanced features. Be cy/inc/er-n'ise! Follow America’s lead and make your next low priced car a six—a Chevrolet Six! Unless you do, you can’t expect the smoothness, economy, and lasting satisfaction to which your money rightfully entitles you. Alt prices f. o. b. Flint. Mich. Special equipment extra.
