fitancts for all you can nsk
in a motor cor.
You got real satisfaction when on the road in a Chalmer's Car
not merely tho absence of motor troubles, freedom from mechan
ical annoyances, but satisfaction with yourself and in your stand
ing with other motorists.
When you pass a fellow traveler In the open country, he un
consciously8 says to himself or his companion, "There goes a
Chalmers;" and with the expression goes the confidence and
confidence nnd admiration involuntary given to something standard.
When you drlvo up to your club or your office, whether it be
on crowded Broadway or tho quiet side street of tho small city or
country town, tho Chalmers trade mark on tho radiator "stands
for all you can ask in a motor car." That monogram and what is
behind it.gives to tho car, and through the car to the owner or
passenger, tho "class" which only goes with known quality,
definite standing, reputation,
Thl3 reputation has been established, not by trying to make
many cars, but by making good cars; not by getting customers,
but by keeping them.
A creat factory, and a greater organization stand behind every
Chalmers car and every Chalmers owner. This organization offers
to owners Chalmers service, which, like tho car itelf, is the best
the motorist can buy. The testimony and. experience of 15,000
users tell you just how good aro Chalmers cars and the real mean
ing of Chalmors service.
