AUTOMOBILE AND GARAGE NEWS

Detroit and consequently schedules
we're interrupted, but the motor car
men are beginning to breathe easily
now because of the present increased
speed in the movement Of freight.
The experience of the Cadillac
Motor Car Co. during the past week
Illustrates the pleasant and gratifying
change nicely. During the past six
days, ending April 5th, the Cadillac
people shipped Gle automobiles, or an
average of more than 100 cars per day.
This brings the Cadillac shipments up
to that time to 5000 cars for 1912, or
something like the number the sched-
ule called for
Notwithstanding the winter has
been very severe said General Man
ager Leland, our agents have been
selling and delivering cars as fest as
we could supply them, and therefore
we're unable to accumulate ahead in
order 10 take care of the spring rush.
We are consequently somewhat re-
lieved that freight cars are now NOV
ing at a more satisfactory pace and
that we thus have an opportunity of
partly catching up in our delayed de-
liveries.
The Won Hamm-Young Co. expected
this week two more OF the famous six
cylinder Packard cars, unfortunately
these were delayed and will not reach
here until the next steamer. Both
Of these cars are sold to prominent
Island people.
The reports from the Packard fac
.ory in reference to the six cylinder
ear which we're very enthusiastic at
irst are getting more glowing all the
line. Over 100 Packard skies have
,een placed in the hands of purchasers
iince the opening af the 1912 season. !
n seven months purchasers have in !
rested more than $5,OOO,OOO in this
model This record, as applied to a
Ugh grade Six in the first year of its
appearance has never been approach
d in America or in Europe. !
At least half dozen models were
esigned before the Packard Company
dopted their present model. The car
'as tried out in $4,000 miles Of testing
hich penetrated the Rocky Mountains
nd covered some of the wost roads
| the United States.
The Packard Six has the fastest get
way of any Ger on the market Sixty
lilies an hour in thirty seconds from
standing start.
Its power, whether running fast or
lrottled down, is developed without
Oise. The motor develops an actual
Orse power, shown by brake test, Of
h. p. This is brought about by the
lperiority of Packard design.
The Packard factory tried every

known make OF carburetor, but were
unable to find one that approached the
Packard carburetor in lexibility or in
the output OF power that II makes pos.
sibie.
The notable ease of steering the
Packard Six is brought about by a
large clearance between the springs
and the front wheels. The touring
car, with a wheelbase of 1873 inches
can be turned around in street forty
four feet wide.
The Packard clutch is a dry plate
disc type It took the Packard en-
gineers three years to develop this
clutch. It engages positively but with
absolute smoothness.
Other sales made by the Won Hamm-
Young Co. during the week included
one of the popular Model 20 Buick
Touring Cars, the body of which was
finished in wine color, with black
tenders and hood, to c. J. Schoening
& Co., a Cadillac touring car shipped
to the Kauai Garage, and another
Cadillac touring car sold to Mr. e. II.
Engle, of Makawao, Maui.
Arrangements have just been COM
pleted by the Won Hamm. Young Co. to
start a model garage and salesroom in
Hilo Hawaii. Plans are now being
by Architect H. L. Kerr for
the building, which is to be as nearly
fire proof as possible, and bids will be
called for as soon as the plans are
perfected.
The building will be puteup in two
sections, one-half to be used as a
show room and office and the other
part to serve as a repair shop and
general garage, the total occupying a
space of eighty feet frontage by ninety
eet depth. The garage is to be locat-
I'd on Hilo's popular street, Waianue-
Tue street, opposite the site which
las been set aside for the new Fed /
raj building in Hilo.

The Won Hamm-Young Co. received
by the Sierra this weew two of the
well known Model AA Stevens Dur
yea six cylinder cars. One of these
cars, five-pass enger Hooded Dash
Torpedo ives ordered by Mr.. Paul
huhlendorf. 1t is one of the hand.
soonest cars which has reached Homo.
lulu of late, finished in a standard
Stevens-Duryea color of English pur-
plelake, both body and chassis.
The other model is a seven passen-
ger touring car, one of the most popu-
lar cars for family use as well as rent
service. The popularity of the Stevens
Duryea cars, not only all over the
mainland, but also in Honolulu, is phe
nomenal. "Once Stevens owner
means always a Stevens owner" This
is because the Stevens-Duryea is de-
signed and built to make motoring
pleasure. 1t is not a mere combina-
ton of mechanism and wheels, but is
built on the tried out principle of
fexibly supported siX-cylinder motor.
The Stevens-Duryea Company start
ed building motor cars in 1892, their
first model being a one-cylinder car.
and their second being a two-cylinder
car, built in 1894, which remained the
standard for ten years. Their first
four cylinder car was built in 1904
at which time that type was universal
ly adopted. Just one year later, in
1905, the Stevens-Duryea Co. placed
their first six cylinder car on the mar
ket, not as an experiment, but as the
commercial product of the company |
Tor that year. The Stevens-Duryea Co.
thus became the pioneers in build
ing marketable, reliable six cylinder
motor cars, and in spite of the opposi-
ton to the six cylinder cars as a type,
which was very active at that time,
the Stevens-Duryea Co. have been sell.
ing each succeeding year more and
more cars of the six cylinder type,
which now has become the highest
type of efficient motor design.
Briefly, the advantage of the six
cylinder car are: greater fexibility, ,
less gear shifting in traffic, on hills or
on bad roads, smooth starting and ac-
celebration with correspondingly less
wear on the tires, and more than all
Of these, greatly increased comfort due
to the entire absence of vibration from
the power plant. They have been
developed to a superlative degree in

GOOD AND BAD

THE roads on the Hamakua side Of
Hawaii are utterly impossible" de-
clared Frank E. Howes, manager of
the Associated Garage, who returned
from a flying trip to the Big Island

biles which have occasion to go to
Waimea now go clear around by way
Of Kona in order to get there, about
three times the distance.
