Self f-Cranking Motor

There is not, to Our knowledge, any other
car on the market that cranks itself.
The Winton self-cranking system is me-
chanioally infallible-
Note tllat-mechanically infallible.
Means just what it says.
The Winton system will not start the
motor if the gasoline is shut off. if the
switch plug is out, or if the driver has per-
mitted the air to escape.
But these things are the drivers fault
not the cars.
With intelligent handling. the self-crank
ing Winton Six cranks itself every time.
That one feature alone is worth almost
the price OF car to. any man who has real
lied the humility of cranking.
And the only self-cranking car on the

Quietness and Absence of Vibration

The muffler is only part of the reason for
a cars quiet exhaust. If all cars had the
same nlllffler, the Six would still be the
quieter.
That's because the exhaust OF the Six is
continuous If rapid-fire gun could shoot
continuously, you could hardly hear it. It's
the interval between shots that permits you
to hear the report.
Take four and a six OF the same total
horse power, and the six is quieter because

Hill-climbing on direct drive

Because it exerts driving power at slower
motor speed than any other type, the Six
has just that much more of its high motor
speed for use when grades are encountered.
And it is especially in hill=climbing that
the Six gives one of the strongest proofs of
its superiority.
