eee a fay WALT MASON $ OF SPRING | stesegncotenassesassssis | The winter, long and cold and Qray, packed up his grip and _ Sloped away. We thought that he would never go, and take his ik old frost and snow, but inaily he gave three whoops, and cashed his checks, and looped the loops. And now the gaudy spring's @t hand; and once again the age-old land, looks just as fresh and new and fine, as when Dad Adam fed his swine. The Brooks are sparkling in the gun; the fields are green that - have been dun; the robins sing, the skies are blue, the world Beems just as good as new. And this is when the country _ Calls; we weary of town streets | and walls. We want to rise at break of dawn, and go cavort ing here and yon, o'er long white roads. thru glade and glen, to Yuba Dam and back again. "Tis in the apring that men exclaim, “it's time we broke Into the game, and bought us ara, in which to ride all o'er | the blooming countryside We've been deprived of four. Wheeled boats, for cost of tiv got our goats; and wo have each verdant spring, “We'll buy a car next year, by ding!’ And now the time has Gome to buy; we want to ride before we die.” ON SALES HEAD PAYS VISIT HERE | HL A.

Yet how often two extra seats would be welcomed, Here you have it. This Chalmers solves the problem. You have all the compactness, moderate upkeep, and easy handling of a““five”, yet with ample room, in comfort, for two additional when needed. Ingeniously designed extra seats slip out of the back of the front seats. They are never in the way, Yet always ready. Come and see how Chalmers engineers succeeded where others failed. You will be surprised at the commodiousness of this moderate- sized, moderate-priced car, Chalmers proved its superiority by winning the officially highest and the officially lowest 24-hour high- gear performance through city traf- fic. These tests proved Chalmers economy and performance under normal driving conditions. Both tests were officially certified by the Contest Board of the A. A. A. Come and see the car, Ride in it.
