Everyone knows that the automobile business has had a
mushroom growth, and that the average automobile factory
has presented a scene not unlike that in a newspaper Office
just before the paper goes to press. 1t has had all Of the
Rild cxcitement-all Of the feverish haste and all Of that
disregard for expense that always accompanies any rapid
development. High-priced automobiles were the result.
The owners paid the bill.
We have for a long time been studying this problem. We
desired to eliminate the most important faults in the auto
mobile manufacturing institution of today. We found sew
eral sources Of waste. First an immature design, and sec
ond an immature and hastv method + manufacture; third
Of these VIC knew to be abnormal and consequently we set
about to correct them. We believed that our success in
the motor vehicle industry as in others in which we have
engaged, laid in giving our customers the best value and
service we could for their money.
conditions in the United States-through all Of our repre-
scntatives, we have received daily reports. We know for
q tact what the real conditions are today. Consequently
the cars which we have designed and are manufacturing
and selling, we know from actual canvass Of the owners
and prospective owners are what the people want
Everyone wants the most up-to-date design-the best
worknanship-tfe most yaluc for his money and a guar
antee of good service after the car is in his hands.
We are satisfied that in this series OF advertisements we
shall be able to prove to you conclusively the truth Of
these statements. We are the first to make an announce
mcnt of a 1912 cara car which we have been thinking
which we know represents the most modern engineering
and manufacturing practices-a car which in value has
never been equaled either at home or abroad. 1t is in all
respects the result Of a knowledge which we have gained
from actual experience.
We have always been the pioneers in setting the price
anything which we have offered before, and competition
has failed to produce its equal.

WHY THIS CAR IS DISTINCTIVE.

The Regal go is the first underslung car which has ever
been sold for less than $4,000. The underslung construc-
ton is an expensive type to buid-that is the reason.
Most manufacturers, like most individuals, don't like to
adopt new things unless they are forced to. We have
taken the lead because we know that ultimately, cars of
this type will ennbody this on instruction..
This type Of construction is built on sound mechanical
principles-there is no question but that it makes the most
stable ear-the center OF gravity is lower-making a
loss Of power between motor and wheels. The car has
less tendency to skid-it holds the road better-there is
less side lash on the springs and tires-i: makes a very
safe car to drive, one which can't turn turtle, and yet with
all hrse advantages the road clearance is still as great as
that Of the overhung type. Besides the underslung con
struction lends itself most happily to that long, low body
which has become SO popular.
The Regal go Is a car with $4,000 advantages and looks,
which sells for $500, and this is the reason why it will pay
you to not only read these advertisements. but to go to
our nearest dealer and look the car over. Don't take our
word for what we have said about it Have the dealer
demonstrate il to you ##HN E#UMN M&#

OF professional misconduct In connec-
ton with the notorious case by a
committee of the law society, and to-
day the divisional court was request
ed to strike Newton's name from the
roll Of solicitors Of the law society.

Bottomley, member Of parliment for
the south division Of Hackney and
the editor Of weekly publication,
anu also aided the Daily Chronicle
to publish false statements regarding
the case. These statements, it Is

WILLIAM w. ROBINSON DEAD.
Excellent Citizen Passes Away After
Lingering Illness.
(Anderson Mail, 22d.)

NAuuSI5OI WAN, 6Hd.J a..#h"
w. w. Robinson died at the hos
pital to-day at 1916 o'clock after
an illness of several months, at the
age of sc years. He had been in i'll
health about year, and week ago
was taken to the hospital. His ILL
ness, however, was Of such a nature
that he failed to respond to treat
ment, the end coming to-day. Mr..
Robinson was member Of st. Johns
Methodist church, and an excellent
citizen. The whole city mourns his
death.
William Walter Robinson was the
second son Of James and Elizabeth
Maroney Robinson, and was horn in
Bolton township, this county, in Sep
tember, 1856. At an early age he
entered the employ Of the Southern
Railway and continued in the SER
vice, after receiving various promo
tions, until 1902, when he came to
Anderson to engage In the mercan-
tile business as member Of the
firm OF Dean & Ratliffeff. In this
business he continued until that firm
went out of business in 1909.
AS an obliging and competent rail
road man. and as a genial, affable
and conscientious man in business,
he won large host Of friends in this
county and in other sections of the
State. He was distinguished for his
loyalty to his friends and for q cheer
ful disposition under circumstances
which would have made a less brave
and courageous heart quail.
His kindness of heart and noble
ness Of soul prevented his acquiring
largely the goods of this life, but in
this loss he was amply compensated
by the love and affection of those
with whom he came in contact and
for whom he labored to make life
brighter.
Mr.. Robinson married Miss Alice
Smith, daughter Of Capt. VIM. G.
Smith, in October, 1884. To this
union one daughter, Miss Willie
Wray Robinson, was born. It Is
perhaps in HIS home life that Mr.
Robinson showed the true worth of,F
his golden nature-a husband with.
out a fault and father without a
flaw; tender and attentive as the
one and watchful and affectionate as
the other.
He Is survived by Mrs. Robinson
and daughter, and two brothers, r.
w. Robinson, Of Bolton, and ]. w.
Robinson, Of Atlanta.
