Industry had not reached the stage
when 1t could seriously consider the
utility side of the motor car when
the buying public had gained confidence
IN the automobile, and learned II would

there was born new field for develop

MufHer Cause of But
~. Small Loss of Power

Under the auspices of the Touring
Club of America a test was held dur
ing the past week at the laboratory OF
Joseph Tracy, the former automobile
racing driver, for the purpose of deter
mining the amount of power actually
lost through the muffier in a stock
motor, and whether such loss was great
enough to Justify the extended use OF
the mufier cut-out. The results at
tained by the test show remarkably
small loss of power through the mufiier.
This is especially emphasized at 800
revolutions per minute, which corre-
spends to a car speed Of thirty miles
per hour, on high speed. With the muf-
fer cut-out open and closed the motor
showed a horsepower of 3S.5. The test
is valuable in that II shows that with
a we'll designed muffier the power lost
through back pressure will be small.

The Lowest Priced 35-Horsepower
5-Passenger Touring Car on the Market

used on the most expensive cars in the
world. The frame is of pressed steel and
has a single drop. The crank and gear
castings are of aluminium. The front axle
is a one piece, drop forged l section fitted
with the famous Timken bearings. The
tires are "a Ax4-quick detachable. The
handsome massive lamps are finished in
solid black with brilliant heavy brass trim
minss. Self starter $40 extra.
The Overland center control is the one
proven and practical location for both
operating levers. The method enables
you to operate the levers with the left hand
and gives you free use of your right hand
for driving. 1t gives you the use of the
right hand fore door, as well as the left hand
fore door, which is impossible If lever is
placed one side or the other. You can get
in or out on either side. 1t is easy to han
dle-no stretching out or reaching. Any
one can manipulate the levers without a
particle of effort.
Take the specifications of this $1,000 car
compare them with any $500 car you
know of and the only difference you will
be able to find is the difference in price.
Why pay an additional $500 for a
purely imaginary value?
Our dealer (name and address below
will give you a thorough demonstration
any time or place you say.

And no wonder the public is scram-
bling for this car. Nothing in the history
of this business has ever equaled it. Of
all the exceptional Overland values, that
you have been accustomed to, this one has
proven the most conspicuous.
Think of it
A thirty-hVe horsepower fve.pasSen-
ger touring car for $1,000. This is the loDesf
priced thirfy-fve Horsepower touring car in the
tDorld. Part for part-point for point-it is
the equal of any $500 car made. 1t has the
power-the speed-the comfort-the ap-
pearance--and the construction. Take the
powerful motor-the strong and rugged
rear systematic Vanadium steel Gears
the fine bearines-the pressed steel frame
the drop forged axles-the big tires-the
superb body work-the high grade uphol-

Here is a car with powerful, silent,
smooth-runnine thirty-fve horsepower mo-

good leather, hand stuffed with fine hair.
The body is finished in our famous dark

BOON IN RETAIL I.
SALES OF MOTORS
IN WASHINGTON
Warm Weather Has Made
Demand for Immediate
\ Delivery.

Favorable weather the past few days
has caused a boom in retail sales Of
automobiles In Washington. Every con-
Germ doing business here has felt the
seasonable effect OF the weather and new
records Of business have been hung up
in many of the establishments. All
through the bad weather the dealers
kept piling up orders, but deliveries
were not lively. Many of the orders
were for April delivery and the warm
sun has centered a series of demands
ell along the line for immediate de-
livery
This has resulted In q car shortage,
as the manufacturers can not get hold
OF freight cars fast enough to ship
their product. So insistent have some
of the buyers become for immediate
delivery that dealers have been COM
pelled to have cars shipped by express.
This is an expensive manner of ship
ment, but 1t is quick and that Is what
buyers want.
The announcement in The Times that
the erection of saucer track for
motorcycle racing was contemplated by
a number of Washington capitalists
has aroused considerable interest among
motorcycle fans" The motordrome
will be located, it Is understood, on the
site of the old bicycle race track, on the
Conduit road, just within the District
line. owners of the property have con-
suited the District authorities about the
matter and next Tuesday Thomas r.
Dedge, of the Washington Motorcycle
Club, will put before the owners the
rules of the Federation of American
Motorcyclists governing the erection and
equipment of saucer tracks. The pro-
posed track will be a three-lap saucer,
with a 50-degree bank.

Garage With Apartment.

That the apartment dweler may
have his automobile garage along with
his suite is the latest innovation to be
established I'm Sacramento, Cal. In ad-
dition to the garage there will be a
complete motor car salesroom with all
that such a combination means In the
way of opportunities for automobile
pleasures and service. Doubtless this
idea will be followed in other cities
when the Sacramento novelty becomes
known.

A T last we can guarantee immediate
~ delivery on our Model 6O-the $1,000
touring car that is the equal of any
$500 car, of any other make, OH the market.
Ever since last July, we have been
working tooth and nail endeavoring to
supply the heavy demand. 1t was utterly
impossible to fill the great volume of
rush" orders that kept pouring in, yet
for months we shipped on the average of
one hundred cars day. The steady in
flux of orders was perpetual.
The dealers and public alike, from one
end of the country to the other, tried every
conceivable means to force extra orders
through O. great Toledo factories. They
burned tie telegraph and telephone wires
in a frantic effort to urge and press rush
orders.
Now the situation is changed.
The thousands of our anxious friends
who have had go or order for two
months or more and waited patiently, can
hare their car at once.
And this is due to our greatly increased
plants.
We can now turn out $50 cars a day.
In January our mammoth new factories
were completed and after two solid months
of night and day work we are pleased
and relieved to announce the arrival of a
complete line of Sixty's" in this city.
