by the men and bodies who have the
management Of this event in hand. A
definite course practically has been de-

tunity for studying the leading Ameri-
can makes of cars and has long favored
the Interstate because of its advanced
mechanical features, combined with
moderate price.
Discussing the policies of the new
company, Hadenfeldt said: I'VE are
thoroughly acquainted with Inter-
State possibilities and have utmost con-
fdence in the car. l have believed it
for long time to be the best motor
car value on the market. We are pre-
pairing to give every Interstate the
best care, and promise that every term
