qualities described herein-qualities
traceable TO properly applied stand
ardization and the resulting correct
alignment; qualities traceable to
skillful design and advanced manu-
| featuring methods and the results Of
scientific research and development,
explain
Why the owner of one car has to
crank and crank his engine to get it
started while the Cadillac owner
gets into his car, presses a button,
disengages the clutch and his engine
starts.
Why the owner Of one car, even
with so-caIled "self-starter" can
start the engine only some of the
time while the Cadillac electric
cranking device is fully IS efficient
and fully as dependable as every
other part of the Cadillac car.
Why the owner of one car must
get out-often in the rain and mud
open his lamps, tumble for matches,
turn on and regulate the gas and
hight up while the Cadillac owner
without delay or annoyance simply
closes the switches and the electric
lamps are lighted.
Why one car starts with a jerk
and lunge while the Cadillac can
be started off with the smoothness
of an ocean liner.
Why in one car about all the dry
er's strength is required TO operate
the clutch and brakes while with the
Cadillac, slight foot pressure is all
that is necessary.
Why in one car the change of
gears is accompanied by crash and
a grind while with the Cadillac the
change can be made so that it is
scarcely perceptible.
Why one car is difficult to keep in
the road while the Cadillac seems al
most TO steer itself.
Why in one car with a steering
gear which has no provision for TAX
ing up wear lost motion develops
making steering uncertain and un-
safe while in the Cadillac steering
gear the adjustments provided are
more adequate than will probably
ever be required.
Why one car rides hard and stiff,
the springs seem unyieldIng and the
car is less comfortable to ride in over
paved street than is the Cadillac
over an ordinary road.
Why one car may run quietly and
smoothly when new but soon be-
comes noisy and shakes and rattles
while the Cadillac often after years
of service runs as smoothly as when
new.
Why one car runs all right on level
roads but when it comes to sand and
hills it has not the power to make
the pulls while the Cadillac has an
abundance of power for all reason
able requirements and with it's
Standardization. the correct align
ment and the substantial construc-
ton. the maximum of that power is
delivered at the rear wheels.
Why one car shows only 8 or 10
miles on gallon of gasoline while
the Cadillac averages 60 to 80 per
cent greater mileage.
Why one car after a few months
begins to evidence loss of power
while Cadillacs frequently show an
improvement.
Why in one car the engine over
heats and the water boils while with
Cadillac construction and the Cadil-
lac cooling system the causes Of
overheating are practically eliminat-
ed.
Why one car emits volumes of
smoke and it becomes necessary to
clean the engine and especially the
spark plugs every few weeks, while
the Cadillac with its efficient lubri-
eating system and the accurate fit of
the cylinders, pistons and rings emits
no smoke at all and frequently runs
for year or more without even
having spark plug removed.
Why the oil consumption of one
car is from two to four times that
