Goodrich Prefer to Sell Tires on Own Merits The B. F. Goodrich Co.. who make Silver-town tires do not deem it neces sary to give prizes or other induce- 1 ments than quality in order to sell! their tires. Leading race drivers pur-i chase Silvertown tires and pay for them the same as the average car' owner and when the B. F. Goodrich < ompany makes a ten thousand dollar award to a big racing event, it does so without any restrictions whatever, regarding the make of tire used A generous recognition of the se lection by outright purchase by drivers of racing cars of the Silvertown twin cable cord tires for use in contests under no influence of money consid eration for so doing has just been an nounced by the B. F. Goodrich Com pany. The American Automobile As sociation. the official association of •ar owpers of this country has pre pared rules to govern the determina tion of the actual champion for the season of 1916 and will be the sole arbitrator regarding such award. The Silvertown cord tire is univer sally recognized as the tvpe of con struction insuring best results in speed contests and is almost universally' used by racing drivers. There is no reason why the Goodrich Company should extend any award for the pur pose of Inducing the use of the Silver town twin Cable cord tire and it does not. but gives outright without a string ued to it of anv kind whatsoever *l".of>o divided between the author itively determined champion the sec ond and third in order quite irrespect ively of the make or kind of tire that may be used by said winners. The New Cole Eight Has Many Feats to Its Credit The Cole "8" has made history in the field of motor car accomplish ments. The Cole Eight was one of the three cars which, alone, were able to complete the recent Dixie Highwuv tour from Chicago to Miami, Fla., on their own power, and i it was the official pilot for the entire trip. On the two great lookout moun tains in the country, the one at Chat- . tanooga. Tenn.. and one at Denver. Col., the Cole Eight negotiated both on high without reducing the water level in the radiator one-half an inch —a feat unheard of before. It has raced and defeated the fast est passenger trains in the United States, including the Empire State Ex press and the Black Diamond Ex press, establishing a new pleasure car speed record in its brush with the lat ter for a distance of 107 miles. The Cole Eight lowered the pas senger train time between Denver and Glenwood Springs. Col.—a distance of 320 miles through the heart of the Rockies. and up grades as steep as 22 , ( ! degrees by more than two hours. These are only some of the remark able feats this popular car has ac complished. The Cole Eight is rep resented in Harrisburg by Bowman &-1 Company. "The Best-liked Car in the Country" A Brute for Power— . C., Aviator Pe Lloyd Thompson is known as the man who "Played Tag With the Capitol Dome." While in Washington recently, Thompson selected a moonless night to give the cause of preparedness a decided boost. Ascending in his biplane, he circled the Capitol and Government buildings and dropped lighted imitation bombs on their roors thus illustrating the excellent opportunities open to enemy planes in time of war. To tinlsh Ills exhibition. ' he looped tiie loop directly over the lighted dome of the Capitol. . Although an aviator first. Mr. Thompson is also an experienced motorist. He used his Chalmers Six-30 touring i car in reaching the aviation fields and exhibition parks while on tour. "In m.v opinion, flic high speed motor is the ideal type for the modern car" says Mr. Thompson. "Both in city driving- and across country work, the 3,100 R. I*. M.

SEEK MISCREANTS CALLING FIREMEN [Continued From First Page.] , night, was creditably prompt. From my home, a block away, and some what higher. I saw the gathering of 1 the companies that responded, after I had been awakened by the alarm. "To have false alarms like this sent in is to decrease the value of the pro tectlon for which we pay. Moreover. ! the anxiety and suspense created i among the nearby residents by a base less alarm justify the resentment one ' must feel at this sort of contemptible | mischief. It is for this reason that the Bellevue Park Association, the live organization of Bellevue Park residents, guarantees a reward of $23 for the arrest and conviction of the person guilty in this instance, and I ' think that we would make conditions distinctly interesting for the vicious rascal whom we might actually catch at this dangerous pastime. "I suggest that other citizens take similar action, and inasmuch as each j such false alarm costs the city a defi nite sum in material and wear and tear, to say nothing of the wrong done to the firemen who serve for nothing, it would seem quite proper to pro pose that the cost of several false alarms be lumped into a reward of fered for the arrest and conviction of these dangerous criminals." Two auto chemical trucks were put out of service because of accidents which occurred while answering false alarms. Following is a list of boxes pulled during the month and their locations: No. 721, Eighteenth and Market streets: 81, Front and Reel's Lane: 214, Fourteenth and State: 221, 1 Fourth and Market; 48. Twenty-first and Chestnut; 54, Second and Harris streets. Three Alarms This Week Three of these alarms were sent in this week. The first one from Box 221 resulted in an accident to the Friendship truck which will be out of service for several more days. The other two were sent in last night. Firemen throughout the city in com- , menting on the calls erltcised their frequency and protested against be ing called out at midnight when their services are not needed. According to city ordinance, the penalty upon conviction for sending in false alarms is a fine of from one to one hundred dollars, or six months in jail, or both, at the discretion of the committing alderman or the Major.

CHALMERS They're buying motor cars today as they're hiring men—on ability. Blue eyes, brown hair, a rugged jaw, mean something —but not so much as they used to. They're'seeking ability. And that is not always measured in stature, weight and reach. Likewise in a car. They look her over, learn her wheel base, note the tire sizes, ask the bore and stroke of the engine and then — They make her perform. They make her hit the trail, they roll her up the stiflfest hill. They let her out on the straightaway, and they make her accelerate at slow speeds. It's the only way to judge a car. And we're partic ularly glad, because we have in the 8400 r.p.m. Chalmers a car that answers every human wish. You can almost talk to this animal. You can lead her anywhere. We know of no one who his ever called on her for too much, nor asked of her anything she couldn't deliver. She's like a young ballplayer who keeps driving 'em over the right-field fence. She's there. And the reason is her magnificent 8400 r. p. m. engine. When history in our business is written, 8400 r. p. m. will occupy a thick chapter. Simply because at the lowest speeds she saves her energy, turns up only 500 r. p. m. at 10 miles an hour, and 1000 r. p. m. at 20 miles an hour. Thus using only 18 per cent ot her power at such speeds and saving 62 to 80 per cent for winding, hilly roads, bad turns, and on occasions when a little extra power gives you possession of the road. One ride of five miles behind the wheel and you'll own it. Ask your dealer about Chalmers service inspection coupons, negotiable at all Chalmers dealers everywhere. This system is a most important consideration in buying your car. * Five-Passenger Touring Car, SIO3O Detroit Two-Passenger Roadster, SIO7O Detroit Three-Passenger Cabriolet, $1440 Detroit Color of Touring Car and Roadster —Oriford maroon or Meteor blue.
