There's Everything in Name.

Another thing you get in Chalmers which
you can get in no other car, is the medallion on
the radiator-the trade mark-the Chalmers
name. This trademark is your insurance that
the car which bears it was designed by Chal-
mer's engineers; constructed of material which
dard; built by the Chalmers organization in the
Chalmers factory; tested by the Chalmers in
spection department, and backed by the guaran-
tee of Chalmers service.
The Chalmers Company was the first com
pany to build real automobile to sell at $500
price. That was three years ago. That car i'm
mediately took the lead among cars of this class
and it has steadily maintained that lead ever
since
The Chalmers Company is capitalized for
100000. It has factory which is not sur
passed by any in the industry The Chalmers
Company builds all important parts. 1t builds
enough cars so that it gets the full advantage of
quantity production, yet it does not try to make
production records 1t builds for quality rather

An Unequalled Record.

What has the Chalmers 3O' done! For
two seasons it was entered in every road race of
national prominence for light cars and it won
in every one of them.
This is the car which won the Indiana
Trophy Race, starting last and finishing first in
a field of nineteen-the best field ever in an
American road race.
This is the car which won first and second
in the Jericho Sweepstakes It was the Chalmers
"30' which won the National Light Stock Chas-
sis Race at Lowell and the famous Santa Moni-
ca Race in California.
And it was a Chalmers "3O' which won the
Massapequa Trophy in the Vanderbilt and set
worlds speed record for cars of this CASA
record which still stands, in spite of many eff
forts to better it.
This is the car which was given the title of
Champion car" because it won a higher per
centage of events entered than any other.
This is the car which proved itself as good
in touring contests as in road races by winning
the Glidden Trophy in the longest and hardest
touring contest ever held 1t was the first car
costing less than $4,000 to win this honor,
This is the car which has never been de-
feated in a motoring contest by car of its own
price and power class.
When anyone talks about contests, ask them
to show you record like the Chalmers "30."
When you buy Chalmers, you buy duplicate
of the car which won the Glidden Tour. You
cannot get this record of performance with any
car which completes with the Chalmers in price.

yourself what it is you can get in one car
which you can't get in any other?
To be specific, what is there you can get in
other car of the 81, 5OO-$2 900 class?
There are many things. Here are a few
which you should consider:

Something More Than Theory
Needed.

But, as we said above, making good auto
mobile is more than just mechanical design. A
car could have all the up-to-date features found
in the Chalmers and still be a failure The vital
organs of all men are much the same, yet some
men are in all respects superior to others You
do not take a chance when you buy Chalmers
in no other car is the appearance-tha looks
peculiar to this car.
Many designers" hearing the praise of the
public, have copied the lines of the Chalmers
car. But copy never equals the original, and
so the Chalmers has remained in class alone
for good looks and style and distinction.
Appearance is one of the most important
standards for judging car. In every person
there dwells liking for beautiful things. You
see your car dozens of times a day. If it has
graceful lines and fine finish it will please you
all the more from month to month and year to
year.

What You Can Get Only
in the Chalmers

First of all, you can get in Chalmers 800
more than in any other car, simplicity Of design
which has been proved. A few other cars, with
features patterned after the Chalmers, claiming
equal simplicity, have not been put to the test of
use by thousands of owners.
The Chalmers $50" was the first American
car to have all such advanced features as en-
block cylinder casting, twobearing crank shaft
unit construction of clutch and transmission
single pedal control, double drop frame.

motor cars to know just which car to buy. So
many claims, confusing because they are so
much alike, are made by the various companies
that it must be difficult to sift them and locate
the car most worthy of investment.
One company advertises that it has 10000
owners, all satisfied"
Another company advertises that it has 25,-
600 owners, also 7all satisfied"
One company advertises that it has 81 acres
of factory floor space. Another says that it has
81 acres therefore you should buy its car rath-
er than the product of the other concern.
One company employs 5000 men; and an
other company employs 5,001 men. These are
cited as reasons for buying one car rather than
another.
Every car, according to the advertisements,
has the most up-to-date design" the finest ma.
terias money can buy" And in the building of
every one of them there was employed nothing
but the highest grade of workmanship"

DAVIS SIGNS CONTRACT To
MANAGE CLEVELAND TEAM

Cleveland, o., Oct 2S.-Harry II.
Davis, first baseman of the world s
champion Athletics and lieutenant of
Connie Mack, their manager. signed a
contract Friday to manage the Cleve-
land team of the American League in
1912 He arrived here this morning
from Philadelphia and Immediately
went into conference with President
Charles Somers and Vice President e.
s. Barnard of the Cleveland club.
This arrangement will bring about
the odd spectacle of Connie Mack and
his former trusted aide fighting relent-
lessly for the title in the American
League, which Davis has assisted to
gain for Mack three times in his long
term of service. 1t is admitted that
Cleveland is one of the strongest con-
tenders for the American League title
in 1912.
Davis said he would remain until to-
day in order to arrange for his coming
residence in Cleveland. He will es-
tablish a home here some time this
winter.
Davis succeeds George Stoval as
manager of the team. The latter prob
ably will be traced or sold to some
other club. He has been manager
since last spring, taking the place of
Deacon jim" Mcclure, who resigned
three weeks after the season started
because of the clubs poor showing.
Stoval produced good results imme-
diately, bringing the club from sixth
position in the pennant rase to third,
where it finished.

CHIEF BENDER TO SECURE
ALLOTMENT IN OKLAHOMA

Guthrie, Okla, Oct 30.-"Chief'' Ben.
der, who won two out of the three
worlds series games that he recently
pitched against the New York Giants,
may yet be awarded a land allotment
in the Cherokee or Usage nation, ac-
cording to announcement here Last
fall an attempt was made to secure
him land allotment in the Cherokee
country, an investigation being made
at that time by J. II. Pollock, an as.
sistant secretary of the interior at
Washington He visited Muskogee,
Tahlequah, and other Cherokee nation
cities looking up enrolment matters
with a view of getting the premier
twirler an allotment.
1t is understood that Bender, who is
a Chippewa and was born in Minnesota
has never secured "a land allotment
The United States investigates the
claims of all Indians who are without
land, and if their claims are found to
be just land allotment is given them
1t is said that Bender never applied
for enrolment and in that way was
left out when various lands were allot-
ed.
There are number of Chippewas in
Oklahoma, the majority of them being
in the Usage nation, around Pawhuska,
and also some at Pawnee among the
Pawnee Indians. Many of them have
shone in the athletic world including
George LaMotte, the former Haskell
football and baseball star, who several
months ago married the former Mrs.
Anna Mary Mcclure, former wife of
the Oklahoma congressman. LaMotte
also has brother in Oklahoma, a clerk
at the Otoe Indian agency.
The Usage Indians. proud of Ben.
der's achievements in the baseball
world, will not, it is understood, stand
in the way of the pitcher being award
ed an allotment in their reservation.
And the Osages being the wealthiest
people per capita on earth, an allot-
ment with them would put the Chief"
on easy street.

sofa to Nebraska yesterday and spoke
here Before his address Mr.. Bryan
gave All interview in which he declar-
ed he was glad to see the suit COM
menced against the United States
Steel Trust. He believed it should
have commenced ten years ago, but
the fact that it is a suit in equity in
stead of a criminal prosecution, lie
declared, shows that either the presi-
dent recognizes that the antitrust law
is worthless as a criminal law or that
he does not want to punish big Grim
inals
The public, Mr. Bryan said, now VII
understand the meaning of the decision
in the Gil and tobacco cases, nullifying
the criminal pact of the law by insert
ing the word unreasonable.

those who violate the antitrust law, a"

that the court was packed to secure
such a decision"
