Do You Know -Four Years Time The Chandler Has
Passed and Left Behind One by One, q Long
Line Of Other Well known Cars?

with the right type of car, the
Chandler Company has stood firm
ly by this type of car. 1t has con-
tinued to develop this car thruout
these four years until today it ap-
proximates perfection in COnStruc-
ton and performance.
We cannot convey to you in the
prin ted page any full conception
of the superiority of the Chandler
motor, but any one of nearly forty
thousand Chandler owners could
put you alongside him at the
wheel and show you Chandler SUI
periority.
Wewould be more than pleased
to show you this superiority; we
would be more than plea sed to
make C1ear'tO you the excellence of
the Chandler car in all it's details.
We would like to show to you
what it means in satisfactory road
performance that the Chandler
motor is equipped with Bosch High
Tension Magnetic as is the Pierce
Arrow, Marmon, Locomobile, Win
ton, White, Stuff and the Mercer;
what it means to you that the
Chandler car is built with a big
solid cast aluminium crank case
extending from frame to frame and
giving abso1uter igidity to the motor
mounting; that it is equipped with
silent chains for driving the motor
shafts and with annular ball bear
ings in transmission and differen-
tial and rear wheels.
We would like to show you what
these items of design and equip
ment and many others, typical of
the highest priced high-grade cars,
mean to Chandler performance.

car fer their car, more than twice
as many as had chosen it the year
before.
And now comes 1917, a year of
some Stress for all trades, a year
above al years when the real worth
in merchandise counts most. And
what is the motoring publiC's
answer in it's discussion of high
grade cars? What is it's answer in
discussion Of Skies most particu-
larry?
From coast to coast so far as our
available records show, the Chand-
Ter is preferred above all other me-
dium-priced cars, above all other
hi9h-grade cars.
Our own sales records show an
increase of better than $50 in the
first six months of this year as COM
pared with the first six months of
last year.
Records of registration of new
cars, although available in only a
y
States, indicate a tremendous pub
lie preference for the Chandler over
all other cars-in it's field, in some
instances as much as a two to-one
preference.
We realize that in some isolated
instances, because of peculiar trade
conditions, some other car may
lead, but in the great markets
where men have the choice of all
makes of cars, where every kind
and type of car is represented, sold
and owned motorists indicate their
preference for the Chandler, and
prove their confidence in the
Chandler, by choosing the Chandler.
Chandler leads because, starting
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1917-08-16

There areperhaps several reasons,
all of which would appear very
clearly if you had the opportunity
or took the time to analyZe the
history and business policies of the
automobile industry. But there is
one big basic reason which to you
as a motOrist is the essential rea-
son, and that one reason is this
that ever since the first Chandler
car was designed and built and
marketed four years ago last month,
the Chandler has offered the finest
of design, construction and equip
ment at the lowest possible price.
The Chandler today offers this
excess of value, this dependability
of service, just as distinctly as at
any time in the four years past.
1t took some little time, of
course, for a great part of the
motoring world to pin it's conf
dence to this newcomer. Men rec
O9niZed, indeed the whole trade
recognized, that a new type of car
which must make large appeal had
come into the market. The trade
knew that it was the product Of
men who knew motor building and
general motor car design and who
were experienced in the best manu-
featuring practices.
@Still- and remember this was
more than four years agO-the
trade said a newcomer could not
win out.
Nevertheless, there were few
hundred Chandler cars manufac-
tured and sold in those months of
the summer and fall of Nineteen
Thirteen.
And how distinctly the Chandler
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1917-08-16

has won it's place in the very front
rank Of fine motor cars is reflected
in the Chandler sales records Of
Nineteen-Fourteen, Fifteen, Six
teen and Seventeen.
Month by month and season
after season turnout these four
years the Chandler has moved for
ward and forward, until today its
leadership could hardly be ques-
toned.
Your own observation of high
grade cars in service in almost any
market in America would show you
clearly how surely the Chandler
has come into leadership.
This leadership has been built on
the Right Car at the Right Price.
Back in 1914 men were very GEN
orally inclined to recognize that
the Chandler was the right car at
the right price and about two
thousand of them had the courage
to make sure of their convictions.
Those two thousand won thou
sands more to their convictions, so
that in the year following nearly
seven thousand men chose the
Chandler for their car.
And the car went ON making
friends by it's performance in the
hands of these owners.
+ + +
The whole country marve1ed at
this wonderful motor, atits power,
it's feXibility, it's life and getaway,
and it's endurance. The whole
Chandler chassis came to be recog-
nized as a great mechanism.
So last year, 1916, it was hardly
surprising to those who really knew
the Chandler that more than thir-
teen thousand motorists chose this

MAYORS PROCLAMATION.

In view Of the great work being
done by the Red Cross Society, both
in camp and on the battle line for
the alienation of the suffering of
soldiers and their families, it is
earnestly desired that the Christmas
drive for new members shall be
more than successful.
Therefore, |. J. T. Hinton, Mayor
of the city of Paris, proclaim the
week beginning Dec. II. 1917, to be
Red Cross week and do urge every
citizen to enroll as member of the
Red Cross Society, in order that this
organization may have not only the
financial aid from the membership
fees, but also the helpful sympathy
and encouragement that would come
with the enlistment of every loyal
American as a fellow member in
this most worthy cause.
Let us show our patriotism and
declare to the world that we are
ready and willing to meet every de-
mand necessary to overthrow i'm
perialism and establish the freedom
of the people Let there be more
than Bourbon's quota of 3,400 en-
rolled

department of the High School, two
of the most popular members of the

Prof. and Mrs. Proctor, are two of

HEALTH AND WELFARE LEAGUE
ASKS COOPERATION.

In order to facilitate the work of
spreading Christmas cheer among
the less fortunate ones in Paris, who
might otherwise see the gloomy side
of a bright time, the Bourbon
County Health and Welfare League
asks the churches and church or
CARNATIONS of Paris to- cooperate
with them.
In the years gone by since the
League came into existence these
bodies have helped it's charitable
work at the glad Christmas time by
donating to the cause such of it's
gifts as were left over after their
own distribution had been made.
The League asks that the same
procedure be observed this year by
the churches, church organizations
and fraternal orders, and that the
overflow of Christmas things be sent
to the. League. To remember those
whose Christmas cheer would be
slight can in this way be made a
labor of cooperation and mutual
