CHALMERS MAKER
OF BETTER ROADS

The Times Dispatch" of Richmond
Va. has been conducting a good roads
campaign in the Old Dominion. This
campaign is now we'll under way and
there is every prospect that Virginia
will soon enjoy as good roads as any
slate in the union; but the task has
been a big one and is by no means
completed at this time.
1t was realized, of course. that the
only way to get good roads throughout
the state was to bring them up to
the motor car standard. A Chalmers
80" was chosen as a scout car and
according to the Times Dispatch" has
done some good work in the road i'm
provement service. The following is
quoted from the Richmond "Times
Dispatch"
Some idea of the condition of the
roads may be imagined when it is
stated that the Chalmers go broke
the record in a run from Louisa to
Richmond over SO miles in 3 hours
and % minutes. This is one of the
worst country roads in the United
States. While acting as good roads
car the same Chalmers go covered
over 900 miles of worst roads in the
state and did so without one dollar of
repair cost. 1t is an indication that
cur roads are being steadily improved
when it is known that the same Chal-
mers car has continued to break it's
own records in the good roads work. &"
In the North Carolina endurance
run two Chalmers go" cars driven
by their owners were the only cars
in their class which even finished.

car this week, which is a four passen-

MIR. Gaylord purchased last week. The

many sales of these cars. The gaso-
