at has been commented upon 10y al
number of our customers that the 1915
cars seem to have been built rather forI
city and boulevard driving than for gen
cral touring.
"lo ascertain whether or NOT thi, sup
posed tendency was an aciuality, the
chalmers Company conducted an eN
tended investigation among automobile
owners m several sections of the coim-

Gated that instead of being on the de-
cline automobile touring Is constantly
increasing among those owners ot cans
which are built for the more strenuous
