This monogram on the radiator stands for all you can aik in a motor car. What does automobile "service" mean? Here is what we think it means: Com ist ently good performance at all times, in all conditions of weather, on all sorts of roads . We try in various ways to insure our customers this sort of service, First: By selling the right kind of a car (the Chalmers has proved that it is right in the hands of 15,000 owners). Then by co-operation with owners both through the Chalmers factory and through our own service department. We know that Chalmers cars will give satisfactory service to. anyone. We spend a large sum of money eacli year to see that the cars we sell are so treated that owners get the maximum of efficient performance out of them . This is something for you to consider when buying a motor car. You must be surej that you will receive the proper at tention from factory and dealer after your purchase is made.
