CUTAWAY CHASSIS
: IS CROWD-GETTER
?orchasin; Public Takei Inter
est in Seeing Just How
the Machine is
Made.
' The ' cutaway chassis is some
erowd getter," asserts . V. Abbott,
generil manager of the Weitern
Motor Car company, who has just put
in the day trying; to satisfy- himself
at to just how deep mechanical inter
est in an automobile is rooted in the
mind of t purchaser.
Mr. Abbott asserts that it is sur
prising to note the intimate knowl
edge of motor car construction which
some buyers have and equally sur
prising to note the lack of such knowl
edge in others.
Show How Record Mads.
"Since we exhibited the Chalmers
cutaway chassis a new record has
seen hung up by Joe Dawson, and
the Chalmers down in the southland,
and we find it very easy to explain
the principles which enabled the
.Chalmers to make this record by
ihowing the motor in actual visible
aperation.
We have been making a special
effort to popularize the seven-passenger
model lately and the cutaway
chassis has saved thousands of words
in explaining the mechanical design.

Goodyear People Furnish (
Chart on Proper Inflation
To aid motorists to determine the
proper inflation pressures for their
tires, the Goodyear Tire -and Rubber
company of Akron, O., has issued a
cost-per-mile and inflation chart
showing air pressures and the corre
sponding load to be sustained. Proper
pressure depends jiot alone on 'the
tire's size, but also on the. load it is
to carry. To find the actual load on
each tire, the front and rear of the
fully loaded c sh uld be weighed
separately and divided by two. For
each tire size the Goodyear chart
shows the proper air pressures for
specified loads.
