Automobile Notes



=, Mr.. and Mrs. selden Walker, of Thir.
tenth street. Newark. are making or
| extended tour of the South. The triF
will continue about u month.
The Wilson Motor Car Company, q
Twenty-hrst street and Clinton avenue
Newark, received delivery q three
Henry cars this week. The Henry
seems to have deservedly become quite
popular in this territory.
Judge Mott, OF East Orange, handed
down some pretty severe speeding lines
last week. Automobile drivers should
remember that the speed regulations
are strictly enforced to the letter in that
city.
H. c. Bradfeld, advertising manager
of the Cole 80 cars. has just returned
to Indianapolis after a long swing
around the agency circuit. He found
everything humming, and the Cole as
popular with the acknowledgements
public as ever.
Speeding over the foothills of the
Rocky mountains on the road between
Denver and Colorado Springs. which
traverses gullies, ravines and the sage
exceeding ~cheapness for their horse
power, but a lower-priced car is not
necessarily a cheap car, and the first
cost is not the be-all and end-all Of
motoring. Whatever your purse the
initial consideration should be dur
ability, for you would make a bad bar
gain If you got a car that would per-
form in ideal fashion for a thousand
miles and then break up, as machines
have been known to do. Make sure,
therefore. that your machine will stand
up not TO two or three months work,
but to several years of it, Such a
motor car may cost you 10 or 20 or
even so per cent. to purchase, but you
vii save 1yl rer cent. an up-keep ev-
penses before you have had two years
use of 1t. There is something more
than money in such economy in that
repair bills represent so much unre-

You may get a car at a normal
price that will cost you as much as its
initial outlay in repairs and up-keep
everv year, so that at the end of . few
years use your motoring bill will be
found expensive. On the other hand.
you may buy a car OF similar horse
power from a pioneer manufacturers of
reputation and prestige, and repairs
and running cost will work out at such
q reasonable figure that at the end Of
the same period you will have spent
a total of less money and will have in
the bargain q machine with at least
as much service in it again. Therefore,
be careful to investigate the reputation
OF the make of car you intend to buy.
IT We n f- Hf to- if in o t
10 visit the factory where the given
car is brought into being. I have in
spected factories in various parts of
this country, ranging in point of size
from the smallest to the largest, and
assuredly I have never seen any that
surpass the Stevens-Duryea Company.
Wien I'VE &c @ ue"t 10 the on $ i =
of refinement, that word embraces so
much that ii is hard to define in gen
eral terms either the limits or the pre-
else natur of those qualities. Happily
there is the less need in that they are
of those things which call for no ex-
pert training whatever TO appreciate.
The marvel Iss that machines of such
quality can be marketed al the low
prices of the 1911 models. Assuredly 1t
is a welcome sign of the continued and
increasing growth of the motor move
ment."
