GASOLINE PRICE
SHOWS VALUE
Of CARS.
Knight Sleeve Valve Motor is
Very Economical, De-
clare Experts.

In the opinion of many keen observ-
ers, the present price of gasoline is
serving to clarity the situation in re-
gard to the vast difference between
economical and wastcful automobile
engines. During the last two months,
as the price of gasoline has steadily
climbed upward. attention has been
focused directly upon few cars noted
for their economical use OF fuel.
Among these the Knight sleeve valve
motor has long held leading position
and 1t has been more especially in
the public eye during the last year
by virtue of its use in the WHY'S
knight, car OF moderate price.
while the economy OF the sleeve
valve motor has long been well known
to manufacturers and users OF cars
equipped with this type of motor"
says John n. WHY'S. president of The
W1llys-overland Company. ''little at
tSntion has heretofore been paid to its
economical operation, principally be-
}ause heretofore 1t has been sold only
ut high price and the owners were
not vitality interested in the cost of
gasoline as the buyers of more moder-
.ately priced cars" Eve realized from

tons forty-eight hours were formerly
consumed in putting two coats OF
paint on a chassis. Today at the
Chalmers plant exactly the same oper-
atoms are performed in less than two
hours and with far superior results.
in obtaining an absolute smooth
surface, the spray system is employed
in applying paint to chassis. After
passing through the first spraying
stage, the chassis, still on its wheeled
truck, enters drying kiln where IT
remains for forty minutes. A mechan-
ically operated endless chain then
moves the chassis out of the oven
to an open space where 1t cools for
twenty minutes. Passing through a
second spraying operation, the chassis
again enter kiln where the second
coat is thoroughly dried.
after the painting operations are
completed. the chassis follows the
steel track to the final assembly
where it evolves a complete car into

OF the industry" says c. A. Pfeffer.
vice president and general manager
of the Chalmers Motor Company.
I'VE can all remember the terrific
racket made by the old chain driven
models and the noisy cough Of the
exhaust before the days of shaft
driven cars and efficient mufflers.
Today the modern motor car is as
free from noise and vibration as en-
cheering science has been able to
make 1t, but the good fight is still
being carried on with gratifying re-
suits.
Locating Motor Noises.
"At the Chalmers plant In Detroit,
we have just completed the construc-
ton OF four Silence Rooms as a
further step towards the reduction
of noise in gasoline motors. These
silence rooms, solidly constructed
with twenty-four inch brick walls,
form an added operation to the many
processes OF production, and insure
an absolutely silent motor for every
car.
Following the assembly of Chal-
mers six" motor, 1t is taken to large
room where all motors are run IN

is removed to another department
where 1t runs from four to six hours

door in the room is closed and the
inspector spends fifteen minutes with
each motor before making his decis-
ion as to its fitness. The slightest
noise is easily located by these mas
ter mechanics in the confined space
and the motor either passes on to the
final assembly or is sent back for
further tuning up, according as his
decision is made.

that while the sleeve valve motor
was principally known for its ability
to improve with use. its power, re-
liability and freedom from repairs.
sooner or later its pronounced econ
omy would take first rank with its
other sterling qualities. Now that the
motor has been placed within the
reach of the average buyer, we find
from what our owners tell us that our
Judgement has been more than vindi-
Gated and our dealers all over the
country are receiving the most flatter-
Ing reports of gasoline consumption.
%Of late there has been considerable
confusion in the minds of motorists
in connection with power and gasoline
consumption, and this we find to be
the case because the vast majority OF
motors developing high power, are, to
use the motorists own words, gas
eaters With the Knight sleeve valve
motor exactly the opposite holds true,
for we secure high power. but do so
without using an excessive amount of
gasoline. This is accomplished be-
cause the valve action is positive,
smooth and certain. the valve always
opening and closing properly, the
same as the valves on steam engine;
second. because the compression never
leaks, and as a consequence all gas
taken into the cylinder is used, and

three essential features is directly-re-
