Automobile driver education
It is not our policy to get your money and then rush you through. We
are interested in you from the time you start until long after you have
finished. We cannot conduct our business throughout the country without
_you_, so _we must train you right_.
The thousands of automobiles which Mr. Coey sold during the past ten
years all need drivers, and our customers and agents in every territory
look to us to keep them supplied.
[Illustration: This is the thing that will insure you a job at any time
and at any place.]
Employment Department
This department is maintained for the exclusive use of our students
_free of charge_. We supply first class help for positions as:
Chauffeurs,
Racers,
Auto Salesmen,
Demonstrators,
Garage Managers,
Assemblers for factories,
And all branches of the automobile business.

made $105.55 in one week.]
Terms of Tuition
While our course is the most complete and thorough, yet our rates
have been kept as low as possible. As we figure we might better have
students in all walks of life, we have placed the price within reach of
all. It is, however, subject to a raise without notice.
(For rates see our Application Blank)
City Examinations
After you have spent your time in an Auto School then comes the city
examination, which, if you do not pass, you might as well not have
wasted your time. Do you know that over one-half who, after they have
secured their diploma, are not able to pass the examinations for a City
License? Well, it is true. _But not a single one of OUR students has
ever failed to pass the examinations and secure a chauffeur's license._
The City Mechanician of Chicago, Mr. H. L. Hudson, who decides whether
or not you are entitled to a license, commenced with Mr. Coey in the
automobile business in 1900. He was Mr. Coey's private mechanician on
his racing cars. Mr. Hudson is an automobile expert and that is the
reason he holds a fine city position. He recently inspected our School,
and this is what he said:
"I wish to compliment you on the method you employ in your School of
Motoring. The many years I spent as mechanician on your private racing
cars certainly furnished us both information of a definite character,
which is necessary for a man holding such an important position as
Automobile School Instructor and Examiner of the Board of Public Motor
Vehicle Register of the City of Chicago.
You seem to have the proper system and your vast experience with
chauffeurs in the ten years past fits you, as no one else is fitted,
for a competent instructor. I believe you are on the right track and
wish you success.
Yours very truly,
(Signed) H. L. HUDSON,
City Mechanician."
The following is what the Chicago Examiner has to say about our School.
