stir in local motoring circles on their ar

vantage of the 1912 line is the new con-
troll feature, being entirely inclOsed. This
control. il is claimed. adds fully 20 per
cent to the comfort and ease of the per-
son operating without lessening the knee
and foot room. The hand grips are right
at the drivers hand, il drops from
the wheel, making it unnecessary for
him to shift his position or reach over
tie side of his car to operate them. The
levers are so inclosed that they do not
interfere with the free operation of the
pedals. The lever control is a feature of
every model offered for next season. The
model III is a newcomer in the field, and
is a car of unusual distinction and merit,
the inside control, positive acting. velvety
grip brakes and reserve motor power be-
ing some of the distinctive features.
