V!ester lund their acceptance of the assncl atlon's Invitation to attend the enn- ventlon and participate In its deliber ations to the extent of addressing the delegates, at least. It Is expected that an answer may be received trnm Governor Stephens of California in a day or two and the hope is enter tained that he, too, may he able to attend the convention. Prominent legislators, highway commissioners and good roads build ers generally have signified their part in tho work Its officers and ad vlsory hoards have marked out. Tho subject of modern highway construc tion and its cost will be thoroughly discussed, together with a. cennrnin. interpretation of the J6, 000. 000 bonding measure to be voted nn. in June In this state. The association's corresnnnrinnr-o on these propositions is already vol uminous. .Much interest is beine ex pressed, not only orally, but by hard work all over the state.

Mayor C. E. Gates authorized the Mall Tribune to announce today that a meeting of the citizens of Medford and vicinity will be held in the ar mory Tuesday evening, April 10, for tne purpose of taking initial steps to ward the organization of such a force. It ought to be needless to say that the meeting will be well attended. Many citizens have, during the past few days, offered their services In such an organization and It Is be lieved that at least 100 men. inollK glble probably for regular servlco in other capacities, would willingly en list in such work and loyalty do any thing possible to guard properties of all kinds in Medford and vicinity. As a condition of local preparedness It ls quite within tho bounds of prudence Such organizations aro being effected in muuoauuB or localities throughout the country. It ls very probable that the imn,. will have a "capacity house" . o'clock Tuesday evening. Kight squads of Company I. Thin! Infantry, 0. N.

At noon Tuesday, March 27, the Chalmers was stopped at the starting point. It had gone 586.8 miles through Chicago's densest traffic. The motor had never been stopped. Nothing but high gear was used. To prove conclusively Chalmers flexibility on high gear, the low and intermediate gears were re moved from the transmission. The car was a standard Chalmers seven -passenger touring model complete with standard body, top and full equipment. The same model you can buy today. An average of slightly over 14 miles per gallon of gasoline was attained, an excellent example of Chalmers economy. 586.8 miles, through the famous congested Chicago ' loop" district is a wonderful feat. This perfor mance on high gear is even more vonderful. It is without an equal. It is an endorsement of the motor. It proves Chalmers reli ability. It demonstrates Chalmers cooling. It shows Chalmers flex lbihty and perfect control. It is a new achievement. A condensed summary of the signed certificate issued by the Contest Board of the American Automobile Association, under whose supervision the test was made, is reproduced below. fully JuipVodfeaT Vi4'VZra ?fnl!ned shGRWJ?l WTU The never .topped duri 586.8 mi,e.. The ga.he coemption wa.n aveVa tiS Some Other Chalmers Achievements Chicago to New Yor On June 7, 1916, a Chalmers stock car shattered all existing road records between Chicago and New York, maki'.g the run of 1047 miles in 31 hours. The best previous time was made by a Packard driven by E. C. Patterson, whose time was 35 hours 43 minutes. Giant's Despair Mountain Climb On October 6th, 1916, a Chalmers captured the free-for-all event at the Wilkes-Barre hill climb on Giant's Despair mountain, winning the $1,000 Hollenbeck Trophy and defeat ing four 12-cylinder cars, sev eral well-known racing creations and many of the highest-priced and highest-powered American cars. Wins Pike's Peak Climb August 11, 1916, a Chalmers carried off first honors in the 230 cubic inch class on the ter rific grades of Pike's Peak in Colorado. Its time was within a few seconds of much higher powered, and specially built machines. Detroit to Indianapolis Onjune 12, 1916, the Chalmers set a new record over the roads between Detroit and Indianapo lis, 305 miles, making the trip in eight hours, 23 minutes. Atlanta to Chattanooga June 24 19I6, a Chalmers lowered all records between Atlanta and Chattanooga. The s'ance " US miles wascov- Tht r hOUr3 53 minutes. This ,s faster than the time of the Dixie Flyer, the fastest rail road train of the south. Dallas to San Antonio Another Tfamous train the Katy Limited-was beaten by a Chalmers between Dallas and San Antonio. The Chalmers made the run in 9 hours and 22 minutes, 1 hour and 33 minutes faster than train time. A. W. WALKER AUTO CO South Fir Street, Medford, Ore. (4 4
