You have probably using high-pressure chassis lubrica tion equipment, that grease often spurts out of one joint of the part being Jubricated just as soon as the part has all the grease it will take. | But you probably have suspected that in some instances the leakage of grease at such points was a little pre- mature. Often there is an opening around a spring bolt or a universal joint where grease can spurt out freely—so freely, in fact, that the part is really never well lubricated. When this happens it is a good plan to hold your finger against the opening and give the grease gun an extra turn or two.

Chrysler announces notable im- provements in quality—of materials, of performance, of craftsmanship, of equipment, of design. While Chrysler sales rise to new high peaksand while publicdemand calls for steadily increasing produc- tion, Mr. Chrysler announces new and reduced prices on the new Chrysler Six. Thus, Chtysler again sets the pace for the entire motor car industry. Study these quality features in the new Chrysler Six and see for your- self why it is the most extraordinary motor car value ever offered the American public:— Greater Power —Increased cylinder bore, resulting in approximately 10 per cent more torque, giving 70 miles per hour with greater ease and quickness than ever before.

Today the industry is celebratingas advanced improvements features which Cgrysler intro- duced and which made the Chrysler Six the outstanding quality car in all the world. Two years ago, Walter P, Chrysler promised always to keep the Chrysler Six as emphati- cally superior as it was before the industry began to follow the Chrysler lead. Today, while others proclaim Chrysler Six features of two years ago, Chrysler strides forward to new limits of quality, of perform- ance results, of advanced engineering. Chrysler Six owners the world over do not forget these truths:— Two years ago, Chrysler pioneered the com- pact, roomy car, combining comfort and ease of riding, without wastefu% weight or extrav- agant size. Two years ago, Chrysler introduced a new ratio of horse-power per pound of weight. The Chrysler Six is today tie only carin the world which gives a speed of 70 miles per hour and more, combined with gasoline economy of better than 20 miles per gallon. Two years ago, Chrysler created the first double-tone color combinations and re-cre- ated American taste in motor car finish. Two years ago, ChrKsler pioneered Purolator c —the oil-filter whi cleanses your crank oil as the motor runs. case Two years ago, Chrysler advanced an entire- ly new design in bodies, and today Chrysler- = hgned closed bodies are all executed by isher.

Two years ago, Chrysler initiated the four- wheel hydraulic brake trend. The Chrysler Six was the first car to have, as standard equipment, these self-equalizing brakes of super-safety. Two years ago, ChryslerSix provided,as stand- ard equipment, the air-cleaner which keeps dust and dirt out of your engine.

Two years ago, Chrysler gave a new concep- tion of driving ease by pivotal steering. Two years ago, Chrysler eliminated vibration by developing an extra-large, ;fi:rfectly bal- anced cranksfiaft with seven shimless bear- ings in which the crankshaft operates on a film of oil without metal-to-metal contact. Today, the new developments initiated by Chrysler quality have not yet brought any other car abreast of the Chrysler Six of two years ago. And meanwhile, Chrysler has developed new measures of manufacturing fineness, new features of extraordinary equipment, new superiorities of performance and new stand- args of riding and driving ease now available in the new Chrysler Six at new low prices. Discriminating buyers are naturally refusing to go back to the Chrysler standards of two years ago. They seek the Chrysler standards of today. That is why Chrysler sales are reaching new high peaks each month. The New Chrysler Six Prices The Phaeton . . $1395 The Coach . . . L 1445 . 1625 . 1695 The Roadster . The Seda: n . .
