Albert Hurd had an experience last
Monday night that he probably will
not care TO repeat. He went out west
of Lake lakewood to deliver a cream
separator and III passing along the
lake on a narrow road the wheels Of
his automobile went into a deep rut
and ran off the grade into three or
four feet of water. Albert went to a
nearby house and telephoned to town
and they went out and got him, leav-
ing the machine in the lake. Yester-
day morning Myron Bunday took him
and several friends out to the lake
and they fished the auto out and
hauled it to town. The machine got a
good soaking but does not seem to be
hurt much by its all night bath in the
lake.

What to Look For in
a Motor Car

CHALMERS CARS are good cars. You have
- the word of y, 900 Chalmers owners if you
care to ask them. You have the word of other
makers and sellers of motor cars if you care to
ask them. You have the record Of Chalmers cars
in all kinds of cOntests-their GROWING victory
being the winning of the Glidden Trophy in the
longest, most trying tour ever held.
Nowadays, the buyer must ask other questions
than will it take me there and bring me back?"
Such questions for instance as:
How long will this car last and keep its youth
and it's good appearance and its wholesome sound?
Will it be economical? Is there any organization
back of this car that can make good the guarantee
of service?
Has this car beauty of line and finish? Refine
ments? Style? Will it give the utmost comfort.
at all times to driver and passengers, even the
children and older people?
Will it be a good seller in d year, two years, five
years from now. A Chalmers will be, because the
Chalmers Com pany's strict one price policy estab-
fishes a standard price for second hand Chalmers
cars.
AS for the answers to these other questions we
believe the Chalmers Company can give better
answers than any other company in the business.
Chalmers $50" $500; FORTY" $3.50.
