Chalmers "30" $1,500
Judged by price aione you might
as well buy aomo other car as a
Chalmers $1,500 la $1,500; no
more In one bank than another;
no more In billa tTian la coin; no
mora la your pocket than in an
other man'a. '
It Is only when you begin try
ing to buy aotnetning with your
money that the sense of value en
ters your mind.
Your $1,500 is worth more than
another man'a $1,800, If at all,
only because you are able to buy
more with yours than he can buy
with his.
We believe that when you buy a
Chalmers "30" your $1,600 be
comes worth more than $1,500 In
vested in any other car. Careful
Investigation will convince you of
this fact.
Flense remember you are not
buying a price or an advertise
ment; you are buying a car. There
fore examine the car on its merits.
If you investigate thoroughly,
a Chalmers will be your first
. aid able to get a
delivery.

"The other fellow goes up Davenport hill from the east
on low gear. Bulck goes up on high."
We ara ready to demonstrate The Inter-State Put five
people in the car and go over this hill on high gear, at 20

REAP THE TRUTH FROM THE
OWNER OF A WHITE STEAMER
MR. E. W. GANS, ATLANTA, OA.,
Mgr. The White Company, Atlanta, Go. March 0, 1010.
Dear Sir: After a lapse of eight months -continued service with my WHITE STEAMER, I feel
that I am In a position to speak of the car, its merits and general ability to do some things that other
cars have not done. I ran a high grade gasoline car for a year.
My car baa cost me for repairs in they eight month that I have driven It, SO cents; tills was for
the purchase of packing for valve and piston rods. Some persons who know me will likely say "well
Collier Is Master. Mechanic of the N. C. A St. L. R. R. shops In Atlanta, and he can do his work for htm
elf," but this Is not true, not that I could not do tho work, but the fact that there have been no repairs
to make. I HAVE NEVER YET SEEN A LOOSE BOLT OR NUT ABOUT THE MACHINE IN ANV
WAY. IN FACT, THE STAYING QUALITIES OF THE MACHINE ARE SIMPLY WONDERFUL.
My car is always ready to go on any kind of m road, hill make no difference whatever. I have
driven this car on country roads on long runs without stopping, and the last mile was traveled as
freely as the first. My gasoline car waa something like a "Georgia Mule," you could never tell what
would be the next thing to go wrong. I have had no such experience with the WHITE STEAMER.
My car has run between six and seven thousand miles and Is as good today as the first day 1 drove it.
It runs on the average of 8 miles to the gallon of gasoline and is a 80 H. P. runabout, three seats,
weight about 2.DO0 pounds. The mechanical construction of the White Steamer is simply perfect.
IN ALL THE YEARS OF MY IJFE IN HANDLING STEAM DRIVEN MACHINES, 1 HAVE NEVER
SEEN ANYTHING TO EQUAL IT. (Signed)
L. M. COLLIER, Master Mechanic N. C. A St. L. Ry.
THE WHITE GASOLINE CAR
"BEST IN THE BUNCH"
The White Company, Cleveland, Ohio. RICHMOND, Va., May 13, 1010.
Gentlemen: I left Richmond on the morning of May 5, at 6:17 A. M. for Washington, being the
17th cur to start after the pilot, and was the third car to reach Louisa, Va., the first control, having
p as sod 14 of the other cars on the way. I was due there at 6:22, but I arrived 45 minutes ahead of time
without a mishap of any kind and was given a perfect score. The WHITE was the fourth car to arrive.
The second day we wove reviewed by President Taft, who started us off in good time. The third day's
run waa from Harrisonburg via Charlottesville to Rlrhmond. The worst roads were encountered after
leaving Charlottesville. 1 left Charlottesville, the noon control, about 30 minutes behind the pilot and
about UO minutes behind the first contesting car, and had the pleasure of passing everything in line,
including a six cylinder Stevens-Duryea, a Chalmers-40, a Buick-17 and a Rambler, and also an Oldsino
blle, parsing the last car about 40 miles out of Richmond. The WHITE waa the first car to arrive in
Richmond after the pilot.
The run was 408 miles, but I went out of my way IS miles Just before entering Washington, which
would make the total mileage 483, which mileage was made on 23 gallons of gasoline, or an average
of 21 miles per gallon.
This is, without a doubt, the most economical run I have ever made. On the way to Washington
we tiad to go through many streams and mud holes. In one instance I had to tow a Bulck-17 out of the
mud, and at another time I had to pull a Chalmers-40. Yours very truly,
(Signed) B. A. BLENNER.

will help you select the right automobile. Now that alleged factories
are springing up over night, and 4dealers" on every block, all of them
with the "only" car, the buyer WHO HAS SENSE should use it.
COMMON SENSE WILL TELL YOU
TT M T a comPany who were building FINE MACHINERY twenty-five jrars
" arNk 1 before the day of automobiles, should build a better automobile than a
plow or farm wagon factory, who have just plunged into the auto business.
ILH e H9 a company who built (not assembled) 2,000 automobiles in 1903 (and
mmmmm I s9A I every one of them still doin? good service) who have built an increas
ing number each year, reaching 10,000 in 1U011 would seem to be a better basis than a
concern who started in 1900, and claim they will turn out 15,000 or 25,000 in 1910, or than
any concern that has just started.
TT 21 f T a comPany offering their FIFTH MODEL 4-cylinder car, brought out in
1 five consecutive years, building several thousand of each model, each
improved by the experience of the preceding, should be more likely to have a car free of
faults than any company producing their first or second 4-cylinder car.
the company who could win the "Dewar" trophy on a standardization
test must have a wonderfully perfect organization. (If you don't under
stand what this means, let us explain it.)

it is tremendously important to be backed by a DEALER who has had
