More than two hundred cities
throughout the United States have
during recent years installed auto fire
trucks which have met with excellent
success in making the, runs to fire.
That II Will only be the question of
time until all the horse trucks and
horse wagons are replaced with the
auto fire wagons now seems assured.
The auto wagons are able TO make
the distance in less than half the time
than the horse is, and for this rea-
son they are able TO have streams
playing on fire before It gains any
great Roadway.
Twenty-eight cities in Massachu-
sets have auto fire apparatus, eigh-
teen in California, fifteen in New
York. fourteen in New Jersey, twelve
IN pennsylvania, eight in Ohio and
eight In Texas. AS yet West Virginia
cannot boast OF a single fire truck.
The latest wrinkle in automobilinE
for city use is the STRENGTHENING
truck. About fourteen cities are now
experimenting and the trucks are
proving a success. The automobile
has become a great improvement for
ambulances. Being easy riding the
automobile ambulance is a great i'm
provement over the ones drawn by
horses.
The government has taken ND the
use OF the auto for the handling of
the malls. The postofices in Milwau-
kee, La Crosse. Duluth, Racine, Jo-
let and many others are using the
auto in the mail service. Many autos
are being supplied on rural mail
routes.

How to Be Sure of a Good
Motor Car Bargain

Getting a good bargain when you
buy an automobile is not just ques-
ton of price. 1t is question of fea-
tures-of what is in the car-the de-
sign, materials and workmanship.
If it is possible to get more for
your money in one car than in an
other, you want to know it. Ability
to pick out car that will give you
the most for your money, depends
upon knowing the important points
on which to judge and then compar-
ing cars on the basis of these points.
1t is a question of having the right
standards.
A diamond expert will select the
one most perfect stone from hand
full of diamonds.
The horseman, looking over
string of thoroughbredS, will pick
out the one or two best horses of the
lot.
They are able to do this because
they know the standards by which to
Judge diamond and a horse.
The same is true of motor cars.
We ask you to compare Chalmers
cars carefully with others. We give
here few standards which may help
you to get an unusual dollars worth
OF value for every dollar you put in
to your motor car.

just were you would naturally reach for
them; because of big steering wheel and
good steering connections. II Is no trick
to learn TO drive Chalmers. We guaran-
tee TO teach every buyer without add
tional expense how to drive and care for
his car.
This car has a lis inch wheel base.
The body is swung we'll between the axles.
The seats are tilted and have good springs
in them. The upholstery is luxurious.
The rear springs are long, three-quarter
elliptic and of the finest steel for the pur-
pose. The majority of automobile en-
gineers have voted this type Of spring the
best.
Without fear Of contradiction, we say
there is no car in the world which is moro
comfortable under all conditions than the
Chalmers 80. Yet the price of this car
Is only $1,000 including Bosch Magnolia,
gas lamps, Prest-o-lite tank.

nc Faction of Safety are a stnndnrt

The Factors of Safety are a standard
which you should have in mind at all
times. The four main factors OF safety
in any motor car are Frame, Wheels,
Brakes, Steering Connections.
The Chalmers 80" has the heaviest
strongest frame in proportion to total
weight OF any car in its class. Relatively
this frame is as strong as in any car al any
price. These 80" frames are built OF
special heat-treated steel. They are strong
enough to sustain many times the weight
they are called upon 70 carry They are
staunch and heavy enough 20 give feel
ing Of solidarity. without which no car is
comfortable.
The wheels Of the Chalmers 80" are
made under the same specifications and OF
the same material as those on the highest
priced cars.
The Chalmers 80" has bigger, strong
er, quicker-acting brakes than any other
car in its class.
The design, material and construction
OF the steering connections are no better
on any ear-n6 matter what the price
than on the Chalmers 80. Il would be
The Wheeling intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1903-1961, 1911-04-15

Good looks is another standard. The
Chalmers 80" has good looks. II has
beautiful lines and il has fine finish. Those
who are most competent 10 Judge. saw
there is no more beautiful car at any price.
As for finish, you positively cannot
lind car TO equal the Chalmers 80" ex-
sept at nearly double the price. For at
tention to details. compare this car with
those costing twice and three times a.
much. Only in that way can YOU appre-
ciate how all Of the little things"-that
seem so big when neglected-have been
provided in the Chalmers 80.

Have you ever noticed the difference
in the riding qualities Of an ordinary rail-
road coach and a Pullman chair car?
The day coach is light. Ii shakes and
rattles. II transmits every inequality OF
the road-bed or the rails straight TO me
passengers, giving them a succession OF
jars and vibrations.
The Pullman coach is compact and
solid. II goes smoothly at any speed. 1t
is comfortable. 1t gives sense OF security.
There is just the same difference be-
tween riding in the cheaper cars and in
the Chalmers. Cars that have light wheels
and frames cannot be comfortable or safe.
You are buying car to ride in. You
will often be in II hours at a stretch. Insist
that il gives the utmost comfort.
You trust your own life and the life
OF your family TO it. Insist, therefore,
that the factors OF safety be Of the best
design, finest materials and workmanship.
We have made strong claims in
this advertiSement-the strongest
that could be made for a car. Be-
cause we have stated that according
to certain important standards, the
Chalmers $50" is preferable to any
other car selling at anywhere near
the same price. And in some re.
spectS, the equal at leaSt-if not the
superior-of any car made at any
price.
We have made these statements
advisedly. We know that they are
right.
We could not make them unless
we had the car to back them up. The
car does back them up. It is the
best automobile value today. Study
It for yourself. Compare it for
yourself with others.
If you don't agree with us after
you have studied the situation, why
OF course, we cannot hope to sell you
a car.
But at the same time we believe
that if you do study this automobile
question carefully, with the right
standards in your mind, you will de-
eide the Chalmers $50" is the most
you can buy in an automobile for
$1,000. And that, relatively. II is
more than you can buy in any other
car, regardless of the price.
Come and see these cars as soon
as you can. Let us arrange a dem
