H The annual reliability run of tho I Chicago Motor club attracted a big I entry list. Tho conditions of tho con- Cf test wero severe, and the perfect rec- pJP ord made by the three Klglns is a sourco of great gleo for Mr. Wilson and his sales organization. The two-day run was made during tho period In which Chicago was sweltering under a wavo of torrid weather, and In spito of tho unusual humidity tho Elgin sixes finished the hard run without tho addition of a drop ot water to tho supply In the radiator, truly a forceful demonstration demonstra-tion of tho cooling efficiency of tho engine. Economy was one of tho strong I points brought out in tho run, for the j three machines averaged 25. C miles to tho gallon of gasoline in tho long grind, and an equally good showing was mado In tho consumption of lubricating lu-bricating oil, each quart taking tho cars 200 miles. .Durability Proved. Tho Chicago run was tho second big victory for the Elgin, tho "built Uko a watch" machines having achieved perfect scores In an oast-, crn reliability run soveral weeks ago under equally trying conditions. Tho durability and dependability of tho ElEln havo been thoroughly demonstrated demon-strated with tho result that the factory fac-tory and Its great sales organization are busy taking care of the heavy demand for cars.
