Chalmers Official Organ
Has Valuable Information

The Chalmers Clubman, published
by the Chalmers Motor Company for
Chalmers owners, sounds a new note
in house publications. The last issue
of this attractive little magazine Is
f1lled with interesting and valuable IN
formation for motorists.
This magazine is styled the Official
organ of the Chalmers Club" and
every member of this club receives the
Clubmen free of charge every month.
Every owner of a Chalmers car is
eligible to membership in the Chal-
of the August Clubman, over ten
thousand applications had been filed
and membership cards granted.
Interesting tours are featured from
month to month, giving detailed road
information. A decided editorial
stand has been taken on the side of
good roads. In the last issue, an ar
and plans of the Dixie Highway, the
great Chicago-M Miami. Florida roadway
now under construction.
Under the heading, Little Pilgri-
images to the Shrine of Chalmers
Quality" series of stories on manu-
facture is being conducted, divulging
some Of the little known processes en-
ployed in the manufacture of a high
grade motor car.
One page is devoted to the subject
of women driving. This article gives
some interesting side lights on the in
fiuence the feminine contingent has
upon the purchase of the family's
motor car.
The spirit back of the Chalmers
Clubman is summed up in the words
of its sponsor, Hugh Chalmers:
There is a spontaneous bond link
ing men who drive Chalmers cars. We
will crystalline this sentiment into a
Chalmers Club"
The whole aim of the magazine is
to foster good will between Chalmers
owners and the Chalmers organiza-
ton. AS a result of this movement
has arisen a greeting Hello Chal-
mers!" that is exchanged by many
Chalmers drivers who pass on the
open road.

Mileage of Tires and
What the Average Shows

The advance which has been made in
automobile tire building can well be
few years ago. with that of to-day"
says l. c. Rockhill, manager, Automo-
bile Tire Department. the Goodyear
IRE ana Rubber Company.
Five. years ago motorists were sat
lsned II their tires attained mileage
OF $500. To-day no car owner would

tires are now common. Many have

There are many reasons for this

their owners. Many of these were un-
given satisfactory service If the proper

- Goouyedr mas Deen the leader all
the way in tire perfection. Our engi-
neers have constantly striven for bet

used up annually 100000 in expert
mentation. Added features to our tires
will increase out tire cost 1888, 900 this
year. What we are adding in extra
rubber, size and strength will cost us
100000; Our eminence in the tire field
to-day is largely due to our policy of
giving more than others. No expense
has been spared to give the motorists
of the country the very best tires that
money and skill can put together"

Winter Tops Are Good
Limousine Substitutes

The winter top which takes the
place of the regular touring top and
can be mounted on a car in a very
short time converts the open touring
car into a snug limousine at small ex-
pense. For winter use such tops are
coming to be considered absolute ne
cessities. since they give all the rough
weather protection of the limousine
at small added cost over the fixed
expense of operating touring car.
The Olds Motor Works is intro
ducing a cold weather top, so called,
although it is, in fact, a top we'll suited
to use the year round, which is not
only a good substitute for the con-
ventional type limousine in winter, but
is so constructed that in the summer
touring season the side sills and win
dows can be removed, leaving the sides
entirely open. The standard wind
shield remains in place and serves as
a rigid front support for the top.
In order to keep the top section of
the Windshield free from snow a glass
shield is amounted on the front of
the top above the windshield in such
a way that it prevents the windshield
from becoming coated with snow.

the accepted earmarks of a limousine,

Improved Batteries Do
Wonders For Electric Cars

One of the most remarkable
changes wrought in electric car build
| ing has been in the matter of batteries
IT is often noted and commented upon
that electric automobiles of to-day
show greater speed and endurance
than ever before. Another noticeable
feature is the ability of electric cars
to always run satisfactorily regardless
of weather conditions.
These improvements are largely due
to the advancement that has been
made in storage batteries. 1t used to
| be that thirty miles was as far as an
electric could travel on a single bat
| terry charge. BY contrast the modern
electric car can cover IS miles or
more-the equivalent of several days
of usual service-on one charge of the
batteries. Then, too, facilities have
been improved by reason of conven-
iently located central charging sta
tions which make it practical for any
electric car owner to get quick serv-
ice.
1t used to be a common occurrence
to see electric pleasure cars travel at
radical changes in the weather, parti-
cularly on cold or snowy days How
ever, the type of battery compartment
and trays in use to-day are so designed
that sufficient protection is afforded
against severe weather to insure the
SATISFACTORY performance OF batteries
in winter as we'll as summer.
Electric car batteries used to be con-
sidered somewhat of a mystery and
the average owner was almost afraid
of them. To-day they are we'll under
stood by owners because they have
been simplifed and thoroughly ex-
| planned in common sense instruction
books issued by both battery and car
manufacturers.
Greater strength and longer life has
naturally come with development in
battery manufacture In every detail,
batteries now used in the quality cleo
trio cars are more efficient. They make
greater speed possible. as we'll as
added power in climbing hills, or
negotiating heavy roads.
There is no doubt that the radical
| changes made in electric car batteries
have been largely instrumental in in
creasing the popularity of electric
pleasure cars in eevry part of the coun-
| try. No hills are considered too steep
for the electric to climb. To improved
batteries is also due the greater
economy which the modern electric
car shows over that of several years
ago and over other types of. motor
vehicles

Motor Car Lineage Must
Determine Its Prestige

The revelations in motordom this
year have unquestionably been more
startling and more significant than in
any previous season. Motorists have
seen the advent of eights and twelves
of radical changes in body design. of
a thousand refnements and improve
ments on the motor car of yesterday
To-day the automobile business is
more than ever before a survival of
the f1ttest," said George NJ. Dickson,
general manager of the National Motor
Vehicle Company, builders of National
Highway Six and Twelve cylinder cars
For this reason it is exceedingly
gratifying to me to realize that a car
which has been an outstanding leader
for fifteen years in the realm of au-
tomobiles, has this year in no wise
surrendered its leadership, but come
than ever before"
After ALL" continued Dickson, IAN
automobile is not made but bred from
a long line of distinguished ancestors;
that is, motor car of the type of the
National. and an automobile shows
its breeding. 1t cannot be any better
tEan the factory behind it. And GER
tainly this Highway" product of the
sixteenth year of National activity
bears out my theory in every purr of
its motor and graceful line of its
body. 1t has a certain smartness which
is matter of lineage.
1T is the car of distinction, the
mark of the correct thing in motor
cars, just as a Lucille gown is the last
word in style or a Tiffany silver SER
vice the epitome of the silver crafts
mans art. Every new style of body
that has been created by the National
in recent years has proved to be in
advance Of the time and all have been
very widely copied, yet at no time has
there been any straining for effect on
the part of the Nationals makers or
obvious attempt to startle the mo-
tor-buying public.
The changes the National has made
in its design have been those suggest
ed by the assured judgment of an
acknowledged leader and before they
could be appropriated by other de
signers, the National has again come
to the fore with some new perfection
in line or beauty of exterior which has
marked it, as always, as the motor car
you would be proud to have standing
in front of your door or which would
give you a peculiar satisfaction in
claiming as your own at your country
club or on the boulevards when it as
sumes its natural leadership. In this
years Highway models, the National
Twelve and the National Six, there is
found this same typical preparedness
and advance both in mechanical con-
struction and beauty of finish"

Modern Airboats Have
Luxuries In Appointments

In line with the Aero Club of Ameri-
ca movement to develop aviation corps
for the militia, Glen H curtiss, one of
the pioneer airmen in this country. will
exhibit the latest model Curtiss flying
boat in New York in an effort to stimu-
late further interest in aeronautics
general public with the possibilities and
value of aircraft as an arm of defense.
Through the courtesy Of the Packard
use OF its broadway show rooms, at
SiXty-first street, have been granted
for the exhibition, which will begin the
three or four days. An experienced
aviator will be in charge of the exhibit,
to explain the construction of the flying
boat, its uses and manner Of operation.
nent New York sportsmen, who have
shown an interest in flying and 1t is
hoped some plan may be evolved that
eventually will lead to the organization
of amateur flyers into an available sec
ondary reserve.
The flying boat to be shown is a du-
sented to the New York Naval Reserves
by Mr.. Curtis, the pilot for which, En-
sign Lee H. Harris. is now being train
ed in the Curtiss school at Buffalo. 1t is
an improved type of the machine in
which Beckwith Havens made the 1000
mile air and water trip from Chicago
to Detroit, via the Straits of Mackinac,
in 1914. The New York Naval Reserves
flyer is now being completed at the Cur
tiss plant, and likely will be delivered
In two weeks.
The airboat to be exhibited in the
Packard show rooms is one of the most
luXuriously finished models of this type
yet produced, and is designed to carry
two passengers and the pilot. 1t is
equipped with a 90-horsepower V-type
motor, with a waterspeed capacity of
90 miles an hour and an airspeed range
of from As to 75 miles an hour wind
shield, self starter, military search
light, and navigation lights on the
planes. The body is of solid mahogany,
finished in brass, of singles step hydro
plane construction.
Following the exhibition in the Pack
ard store the machine will be sent to
Sheepshead Bay for an exhibition dur
ing the automobile races. and thence to
Long Beach, where Mr.. Curtiss will es-
tablish a school for flying.

Willard Uses Extra
Hard Oak For Boxes

An interesting Iact in connection
with the manufacture of Willard Stor-
age Batteries is that the oak which
they use for boxes is so hard that fur
niture makers are unwilling to use it
for any except special purposes, mas
much as 1T is difficult to work and
dulls the edges of ordinary tools
The Willard Company searched all
over this country before they discov-
cred this material, which they believe
is superior to any other for the pur-
pose. In addition to using very hard
wood, they groove the corners of their
boxes and lock them together with
hard maple bowels securing the bot
toms with lead-coated, acid-proof
screws. They say that as a result of
these precautions many months are
added to the battery's life in service
Ordinary cheap battery boxes are
quickly Jolted apart by the bumps
which they get over rough roads and
car tracks.

cloth with a dome line in the center
snd the exterior in a weatherproof and
practically wearproof material.
The luXuries of the limousine have
been preserved IN this top to such an
extent that it probably would be taken
for the conventional limousine by most
people. Combining as it does the
salient features of the limousine with
the light weight of standard touring
car, the winter top, according to Mr.
Halls statement, is likely to take it's
place with such necessities as de-
mountable rims or quickly placed rain
curtains.
