NEW CHALMERS IS
 GREAT GAR, SAYS
 MR. H. M. BAILEY
Pleasure to Demonstrate to People Who Know
 Good Cars

We welcome an opportunity to demonstrate the Chalmers" says H. M. Bailey. president Motor Sales corpo- ration, because we are firmly con- vinced that the Chalmers today Is by far the best car in it's class. And the experienced motorist soon sees this when the Chalmers is demon strated.
 The new Chalmers doesn't require any 'babying'. Due to the new piston construction, Chalmers is ready to render full service without having to be broken in by it's owner or driver.
 "of course. the fact that the fuel is preheated before 1t enters the cylinders has great deal to do with the fine performance of this car The gasoline consumption is reduced, plug fouling and carbon formation are almost unknown. and much less oil is used.
 These points are of vital concern because they greatly reduce upkeep costs. And because the motor works so we'll wear is reduced meaning long life 10 parts and lowered re- placement charges.
 That is why 1 say we like to demonstrate the Chalmers. particu- 'larly to people who know good cars. They see at once the superiority of the Chalmers and that is why the Chalmers is coming into general recognition as particularly fine au tomobile"

Spring Bracket of
 Special Design on
 Essex Motor Cars

The early automobiles were truly
 horseless carriages. remarked A.. k. Pryor. president of Pryor Motor company. local Hudson Essex dealers and even today many of the old ear-marks of the wagon are notice able in some automobile chassis.
 Perhaps no part is as old fash tened as the average shackle bolt. shackle and spring bracket. A bronze pushing and strong bolt are used but, the wear on the side of the spring eve and bracket is not usually taken into account-yet this is where most rattles start.
 The Essex spring brackets are de- signed-not copied from old carriage pratice The problem Is treated as one would consider an engine part. providing really practical adjustments and wearing surface that will last almost forever and eliminate ra,tles.
 Movable hardened steel plates are placed between the bracket and the end of the spring eye. Then a steel pushing passes through the bracket eye and is secured by the end nut When the spring eye wears a little and shows a tendency to rattle eight turn of the nut pushes the pushing in against the steel plates and promptly takes up any wear and keeps the connection noise less."

With the re- duction of s200 on all Briscoe models orders are coming to Jackson, Michi gan, in increased volume and repre- sent a demand from practically every state in the union.
 The industry has again demon strated how mobile it is with its re sponse to economic laws" said MT, Earl "In the days of advancing prices the automobile manufacturers did everything possible to keep costs down. The percentage of increase was less than any other industry. Basic materials and labor were at a premium and prices went up because costs were rising, and the two are twin brothers
 The automobile manufacturer has kept his record clean of profiteering as demonstrated by the steady bus- ness enjoyed by progressive makers during the spring, and early summer Now that practically the entire in dustry is unanimous for reduced prices, the advance to better times will be led as usual by the motor car.''

Indifference to Ancestor Worship
 Is Worrying Japan
By Associated Press

\Tkio July 16.-The indifference of Japanese students above the mid dle school to ancestor worship is causing the government considerable concern. according to K, Yamada, chief of the Shinto affairs bureau in the Home department. who ad- dressed the general conference of the Shinto priests of Japan. Ancestor " orship is the fundamental religious custom in this country and is closely related to national veneraton for the imperial family and the imperial an cestors.
 Tt is regrettable that the higher the education students receive in this country, the more indifferent is their faith in ancestral spirits said Mir Yamada
 Judging from the number of visi- tors to the shrines and the amount of contributions such pilgrims make, there is every reason to conclude that despite the growing predomi- nance of foreign objectionable ideas in this country since the late war, the spirit of worshipping ancestral shrines still remains intact.
 "A serious fact. however. is that whereas the elementary school child ren are always sincere and earnest in their faith, students studying in schools higher than middle schools show indifference towards such a matter" The worshipping of ances- tral shrines is so closely associated with the national character of the empire that the above tendency can not in the least be ignored as any thing but serious. It is the authori- ties decision that some proper steps be taken for the correction of the above undesirable state of affairs assisted by the Shinto priests.
