CHEVROLET CAR
SELLING RAPIDLY

The Chevrolet automobile is in big
demand, according to S. S. Lightman,
the local dealer.
Mr.. Lightman says If he could only
get the cars fast enough he would be
satisfied with life. The Chevrolet de-
livers the maximum power to the rear
wheels. 1t can accomplish that
through it's marvellous simplicity. Di-
rectness of mechanical action natur-
ally results in more power and speed
and less gasoline, oil and other ex-
pense. The path of Chevrolet power
is short and direct--directIy into the
valve head motor, which is a ceIe-
brated feature in higher priced cars
OF course. the impact Of explosion
must strike full against the piston
head, and this fullness Of force is ex-
erted Immediately on the rear wheels
through the unit power plant type of
construction. No fraction Of a sec-
ond or horsepower is lost.
The best features of higher priced
cars are embodied in this Chevrolet
model, in addition it has many ex-
elusive features of its own.
