Engineers neverexpect toseea high-grade gasagain. In the face of this condition now-comes the. great Chalmers engine, which makes high power out of low- grade’ gas. It makes “‘one drop of gas now do the work of two.” It makes gasoline work as gasoline has never worked in an automobile engine before. ey ; By means of an ingenious device known as a “hot spot,” the gas, after leaving the carburetor, is warmed up (but not overheated) just before it enters the intake manifold. Then by means of another ingenious device known as a “ram’s-horn” manifold, it is skillfully passed on to the engine combustion chamber. The secret here is in what are known as “easy air bends.” ; @ : The result is that at the time when the’ gas ,is touched off by the spark plug it is “cracked up” into a perfect vapor for 100% results. : pee aA This device in particular is one of the most notable achievements in automobile engineering in many years. ‘Not only do these improvements on the engine create more power out of less gas, but they also make possible a.quick. starting engine on a cold day. : When you step on the starter button in a current Chalmers, you get results right off. And your engine begins to run with midsummer smoothness—no miss- ing cylinders—no spitting—no hesitating—no backfire. So noteworthy is this great Chalmers engine that one is tempted to overlook other notable improve- ments and perfections in the current Chalmers. They are numberless, and once evident to the eye of a wise buyer, they win him. bee ‘To miss seeing the current Chalmers at our show- rooms is to miss the most recent and most talked-of car of the day. a OURING CAR, 7-PASSENGER $1450 ‘(OURING CAR, 5-2ASSENGER $1365 STANDARD ROADSTER - $1365 ALL PRICES F. 0.
