obsolete models or noncompetitive ones. they may be forced to do otherwise
 rPerhaps the most significant as we'll as the most encouraging feature of the Rec bushes during the past year is the indication that this industry has ceased 10 be enc of seasons. The difference in demand for cars in September and May was not noticeable. Of course, it is difficult to guage the demand when you have a chronic overdemand such as Reo experiences.
 Notwithstanding. there was a ma rked difference between this and- former years in that the demand continued right through the season, it seems just as brisk now. It is due. of course, to the fact that people have found the automobile indispensable in the winter as well as in the summer. and-l expect to see the demand even greater than the spring de- mand in the future, for the reason that buyers have come to know that the actual new models are brought out in the fall season. and that only by buying then can they be sure of having a car for the spring use. To wait until the spring actually opens means that it will be inn possible to get any of the more popular makes of cars.

.POSNER BELIEVES IN MIDGLEY TIRES Says They Are Manufac- tured for Quality
 Only

H. J. Posner of the Blacklock- Pos ner Tire and Rubber company, is an enthusiastic believer in Midgley tires and says he has had great success with these tires in the local field. Mir Pos- ner says the Midgley tire is manufac- tured for quality only and the com- pany is not going out after the quan- tlty records of the country.
 Midgley tires are of the highest grade only." said Mr. Posner Moth ing but the finest rubbers and sea island fabrics are used in their man. ufacture They are vulcanized by the one cure-open steam process which costs more than the 'molded' method. but gives better results.
 The Midgley tire casing positively prevents skidding. It has composite Q tread of rubber and steel. Four rows of spiraily wound wire are embedded in the rubber A car equipped with these tires simply will not skid. It can't. The ordinary rubber treated nonskid tire loses it's efficiency when even partially worn. With the Midgley tire we will guarantee 5000 miles of real service"

We have just completed the most sue cessful year in our history said Ed ward H. Scott. vice president and gen. pany when on August 20 the factory superintendent informed him that the last car of the 1915 series had been shipped. Our volume of business for the past year has been 5o per cent more than the year previous. and our growth has been steady from the day Rec was incor- porated-in 1905.
 We have always underestimated-or if we did not underestmate. we underpro- duced-thes Rec demand. This year we fell short of the mark farther than ever before. and while it is a source of much qualification, 1t is also regrettable that for several weeks there will not be a new Rec for sale anywhere in the world. During the past three months we have been unable to come anywhere near sup plying the demand of dealers, and we were driven almost to our wits ends to allot the last few hundred cars in an equitable manner and prevent our dealers feeling that there was any favoritsm. Our original plans were such that the factory run on material for the 1915 mod els would be completed about the last of September. when the new models were to be announced and ready la our efforts to meet the insstent demands of the
 last few months, however we put on an extra night shift and that, of course. used up the materials more rapidly. De-
 spite the fact that we made several thousand more Reos than we originally planned, still the material was used up before that for the new models was ready. As a result, there is now a gap between production seasons when it is impossible to buy new Rec.
 shipments of the new models will be- gin September IS, and as our announce ment will appear on the 12th, we antici- pate an avalanche of orders for them. However, when they do come they will come pretty rapidly.
 By the way, we think that this year Reos experience demonstrates conclu- sively that 1t is not necessary-in fact, that It is wrong. to bring out new models right in the middle of the busiest season June and July That Is the time when the greatest number Of people want au- tomobiles, and it certainly Is ridiculous to close the plants to make the neces- sary changes in equipment, etc. They all told us that inasmuch IS everybody else was doing it, Rec would also have to announce new models and prices in the middle of the season. We said we would not simply because we could not
 We were curious to knows if new mod els. etc, would effect the Rec demand and we were not a little surprised to find that it affected it not at all If anything, the Rec demand increased.
 The fall is the logical time to make any changes that may be desirable or necessary. and at that period would in- convenience the least number of buy CTS. For that reason, the Rec plan will be adhered to. and we are confident that other makers will adopt it also, save in those ca ases where because of having

CHALMERS SERVICE PLAN IS EXPLAINED Ball of the Boorse Com- pany Talks About
 Matter

With the opening of the present sea son the Chalmers Motor company announced one of the most far reaching service plans ever conceived by any automobile manu- lecturers. Since the Chalmers announce ment other service plans along the same lines have been adopted, but the chal- mers is the original.
 B. k. Ball, who is associated with X. l.. Boorse in distributing the Chalmers car in 10 counties of north Alabama with headquarters in Birmingham told the writer something of the service plan of the company he represents MT. Ball said while his company wanted to sell all the cars 1t could, still it was always ready to attend to the wants of Chalmers owners regardless or how long the car had been in the possession of the man who needed service. :.
 Any adjustment which might be needed to any Chalmers car will be made free of charge by the local Agency, says Mir Ball. And this does not mean that the car must have been purchased through the Birmingham agency. It will be id- Justed for the owner right here in BIr- mingham, even it it were purchased at Nome. Alaska. The purpose of the agency here is to serve Chalmers owners The matter of getting other people to buy Chalmers cars is secondary.
 The Chalmers Motor company does not consider the sale closed the moment 1t gets the money from the buyer" sah Mir Ball. The sale of Chalmers car Is never closed unti, the purchaser is com pletely satisfied with his car. We give a coupon book with each car, which en- titles the buyer to 50 hours free service on adjustments. This coupon book will be accepted at any Chalmers agency in the world and the owner need not pay out one cent in cash.
 T believe the Chalmers plan is the best ever devised. In the past, every automo- bile buyer believed he was buying with his car some elusive thing which he called service No doubt the manufacturcs intentions were good. But misunderstand- ings and complications were inevitable under the old promise system. It was not tangible The Chalmers plan defines service. It is bound in leather book and goes with the car"

The only comparisons ever made with Chalmers cars are made with higher priced cars-either foreign or American. And this is espe- cially true of the Chalmers Six-40 at $l350-the lowest price at which Chalmess Quality has ever been sold.
