think of the suggestion then made,
but wish to thank Ross for his in

a copy of his paper.'

FOR ECONOMICAL
TRANSPORTATION
The Chevrolet engine is the most eco
nomical automobile engine produced
today, because (1) it is a six-cylinder
engine, and (2) it is a valve-in-luad bit
eylinder engine.
Its six cylimlers use less gas and oil—in
fact, use the least gas and oil — for six
cylinders are the most economical com
bination uwd in modem automobiles.
Every test pjroves it's more
economical . . . Every Chev
rolet owner knows it’s more
economical . • • And every
person will readily understand
these simple A-B-C reasons

Ft* valve-in-heail design cuts gasoline
consumption still lower because there is
less loss of lu'at through the usdls of the
lombustion chamber in valve-in-head
engines, and the advanced construction
of the Chevrolet engine gives maximum
heat (or power) saving.
Most important of all, Chevrolet's more
efficient cooling system, pressure stream
oiling and the greater accessibility of all
working parts result in more dependable
operation, over a longer period of time,
with the lowest maintenance costs.
Thus, Chevrolet’s valve-in-head engine
—only one of its kind in Chevrolet’s price
range—gives economy without equal. ,
