"It U til ways pleasure to retard
the result of a gasoline mileage test
by a Chandler Six." writes the aiilo
nuMlo editor of Hie Itochcstor, N.
Y., Herald, "and It was my good for
tune, recently, to ho one of a party
to again test the ability of the
Chandler In this respect.
"Th event was nnn of the Her
ald's official route logging tours and
the ear driven by Jack Starkweather,
was a regular stork Chandler that
had already boon driven over 18,000
miles.
"There were, altogether, six of
Rochester's motoring enthusiasts
along on the trip. Including Secr
etary George C. Honahue, of the
Automobile Club of Rochester, and
Sales Manager Charles F. tluolle, of
Strong Motors, Chandler distributors
for western New York. And al
though not exactly heavyweights,
the six of us weighed In at Just
1,100 pounds.
"The start was made, as usual,
from the headquarters of the auto
cluh, In Powers Hotel, and tho route
out of the city led through Main
Street Kast; to East Avenue, to Cul
ver Head, to Monroe Avenue, to the
city lino.
"It was here that the 'Chandler
test for gasoline mileage was begun,
The regular gusnline supply was dls
connected, the carburetor was drain
ed and a can containing a carefully
measured gallon of gas was attached
to the windshield.
"The course led along the Monroe
Avenue Hoad toward Pittsford, and
the Chandler sailed along, eating up
any and all hills on high, despite
the 1, 100-pound load. Pittsford was
reached at 7.4 and In the heart of
the village, at 7.8 a turn right, onto
the Mnndon Road, was made. Up
and down the Mendon hills, shooting
along at about thirty miles an hour,
we continued, reaching Mendon at
14 4, crossing the railroad at U S
and turning left at 14.6.
"The post marking the division
lines of Monroe and Ontario Coun
ting was noted at 15. 6 and at 18.2
came tho had curve and double rail
road crossings In the Victor road.
And the Lehigh crossings came right
afterward at 18.4.
"It was here that an unfortunate j
occurrence prevented what, oilier-
wise, would have been an even bet
ter record. Just after crossing Hi"
Lehigh trucks, which. Starkweather
took nt thirty mtl a an hour,
liiielte's goggle dropped ofl and II
was necessary to stop the car on a
side hill and back to dud them.
"Victor was reached at 18.3. and
the sharp turns unit curve over the
railroad going out of Victor were!
gonn through nt 20.(1 and HO N. Con-1
tHulug along the mnenilrm the turn!
right was made at 23.!, the road
leading to ('iiiiaiuliiigua.
"When about n couple of hundred
yards from tile Canaiiiliilgua illy
lino, tho suiily of gasoline In the.
gallon tank gave out, and It was I
necessary to stop and hook up the
regular supply. The one gallon j
had been siiltli-lent to cover Just ex
