NEW WORKERS SEE
CHALMERS "6-4S"

One OF the really new cars which
was shown 10 the public for the first
time at the Grand Central palace eX-
hib!tion, was the Chalmers Skis"
The "Six4S" Is designed, according
70 the Chalmers engineers, 10 answer
the demand for a lighter weight six
cylinder caI-one which has all the
qualities OF hexibility. silence and eff
iiciency OF the larger Skies" with
the economy and low price OF the
average four"
The new Chalmers light Six" is not
a little car. In carrying capacity and
general roominess II is as large as
any tive-passenger model. Yet IL
weighs only IS pounds per horse
power.
This latest OF Chalmers Skies" has,
like its larger brother, a six-cylnder
T-head motor. The light six" marks
an even stronger tendency than pre-
vious Chalmers skies" to the long
stroke design. The bore is 81 inches
and the stroke 5la inches
The wheel base is 126 inches. and
the chassis Is equipped with "a by 4
inch tires, instead OF 36x4la-inch as
on the larger six" In the lighter
model q tnree-speed transmission is
used. The clutch is the multiple disc
cork insert type, like the hig six"
In fact, in every essential detail
OF construction the little six" is
similar to the big "Six-60" I.ubrica.
ton Is by the combination force feed
and splash system. The Chalmers.
Entz one-motion electric starter. with
generator and battery beneath the
front seat, Is used In the lighter mod.
ell. AS in the larger Six, the starter
Is positively connected through a
short propeller shaft and enclosed
chain drive to the crank shaft of the
motor. giving as in the large "Six"
non-stallable engine. Genuine

REGAL MODEL
c. Is CLASSY
Five Passenger Touring Car En-
bodies Many Up-TO-Date and
Serviceable Features

The Regal Model &C" fve-passenger
overhung touring car is little differ
ent in frame construction from the
usual overhung car.
In this Regal Model the frame Is
suspended above the axles. as is the
general practice with cars OF this
pc, but the springs instead OF rest
ing on the top OF the axles are fast
ened TO the underside. thus lowering
the car frame the heighth OF the
aXles.
1t is claimed by the Regal company
that this lowering OF the frame per.
mits the adoption OF tho straight-line
drive. This means practically no
power Is lost In transmitting the pow
er from the motor 10 the rear axle.
This lowering OF tho frame also
brings the body down somewhat and
gives 10 the general appearance OF
the car grace and rakishness that
Is seldom found In cars OF it's size.
a degree Of safety is also claimed
for this Regal Model that is lacking
in other cars OF overhung build. BY
the construction above mentioned the
center OF gravity OF the car Is lower
ed, thereby making II less liable 10
overturn when tipped at an angle.

our trucks. We are. in word, elimi-
mating number or evils that nave
/ existed In the sale OF motor trucks.
The hrst and greatest OF these
| abuses Is what has been known as
! service In the past. purchasers OF
motor trucks have been led 10 expect
all sorts OF impossible things In the
way or free service. Many motor truck
manufacturers were not in a position
! financially. nor were they inclined 10
give the service expected. AT the same
/ time all OF them counted the service
In figuring the market value OF their
trucks
To-day, however. conditions are
changed The motor truck is no long
er In the experimental stage mechani-
cally, and there is no longer the great
amount OF ignorance on the part or
the drivers in the matter OF taking
care OF their trucks This changed
condition has placed us in a position
10 do away with unlimited mainte
nance agreements, which undoubted y
place a premium on reckless motor
truck operation
Another reason why we are able TO
lower our prices is that lower prices
viii mean larger sales and naturally
Increased sales bring down the manu-
featuring cost and place us where we
can also bring down the selling cost
This is ali axiom of business.
Furthermore. we have eliminated
the trading in evil. In the past
manufacturers have generally been
forced 20 Price their trucks higher
thar they would otherwise. simply be-
cause they had TO figure on taking as
part payment a motor truck of more
or less doubtful resale possibilities
We are able to lower our prices be-
cause we will not take other trucks in
trade. There is also the consideration
Of strictly cash transactions This is
now the rule with us in the sale OF
our trucks. as opposed 20 the other
way that Is open l. G., the giving OF
notes 10 extend over period or
months or ears Manufacturers VINO
have accepted notes have. for obvious
reasons, been forced TO add TO the
price OF their trucks so as to cover
this. II Is manifest why in insisting
upon cash transactions we are able 10
bring down the price OF our trucks
BY reason OF this new schedule or
prices which we have put into effect,
We feel certain that the market for
our trucks will be greatly widened.
Is natural TO suppose that more bust
ness houses and business men Will
buy motor truck at $4,000 than would
buy the same truck when IL Is selling
at $4,000 or course. back of all this
must be logical reasons for the lower
ing OF prices. There must be conf
dence on the part Of purchasers in

~, n. Newsom a man really is
lVCky and wins race, he Will say
that he earned it. But this Is not the
rule, and often the winner does not
dave so well, nor have as good car
ad some OF the vanquished. Let's look
bock over few OF the recent races
and see how important factor was

losing his life.
Then think OF the experience OF An

apolis race this year He was push
ing Goux hard for first place, and was

worst piece or luck that ever hap

an exploding tire OF another car which
he was passing, punctured hole in

But this was only the start OF Bur.

at Tacoma, he was easily leading the

sary for him 10 come home on three
cylinders. Even then he won second

Next, at Elgin, he was running strong,
about second or third. when a cylinder
cracked, and he had to withdraw from
the race.
From the Elgin races. Burman

some races, and he was determined

Last Nights Amusements.
COLUMBIA.
"The Light Eternal"

The Columbia Players presented the
first stock performance Of The Light
Eternal" In the East, last evening at
the Columbia Theater, which was taxed
to its capacity to accommodate the
patrons who sat tense under the spell
Of the romance Of early Rome, told in
foue acts By Martin v. Merle. who caught
the spirit Of the early Christian strug-
gle and woye Il reverently into the fabric
of his drama
The story concerns the love OF Ar
temia. daughter of a Caesar for Marco
Valerius a captain of the Emperor's .
guard. who gave his life for his Christian
faith, but not until his beloved had also
seen THE Light Eternal and accepted
the Savior.
While the story Is one Of the most i'm
passioned romances in the history of the
stage, its dominating theme is a religious
fervor portrayed in poetic language amid
surroundings which afford the Columbia
management an opportunity this week
for the most elaborate mounting given
a stock production in Washington in
many a long year-an opportunity which
has been realized with an artistic sense
that demands praise equal to that which
the members of the Columbia company
deserve for the creditable manner In
which the story Is unfolded.
A. H. Van Buren was never more
earnest in Characterization than in that
of the Christian Marco which he pre-
sented to an appreciative audience last
evening, and Miss Bernard realized all
the poetic beauty of the daughter Of
Diocletian as well as the dramatic value
of her difficult role.
John NJ. Kline did the best piecs Of
work I have seen him accomplish this
season in his dignIfied portrayal Of Ssbas-
tian, reading his lines with a beauty OF
diction worthy Shakespeare, and quite
up In physique to the noble
Roman. George w. Barber was excel
lent as Diocletian: Everett Butterfleld
achieved a personal triumph In his nsrra-
ton Of the history of the Nazarene, and
other members of the cast rendered ada
quate support to a production which is
so stupendous an undertaking Tor
stock organization that the Columbia
Players deserve unstinted praise for the
sincere and reverent manner in which
The Light Eternal was presented last
evening.
