mere possession of an automobile is no
badge of great wealth. Notice how
frequently one sees a young father and
mother, with the children, starting out
Tor a Sunday pleasure drive from their
unpretenttous home.
What a change since the days Of the
trst automobile show in Madison
Square Garden, when a running track
was provided so that manufacturers
could demonstrate to doubling Thorn
asses that the wheels would really go
round, and that the engine and car
could be started and stopped at will!
Those We're the days when argument
was heated over the merits Of vertical
and horizontal engines: Of partisan
ship over air or water cooling systems,
disputes as to shaft or chain drive,
storage and dry cell batteries. all steel
frames or laminated wood: when the
electric systems on ever the best cars
were installed about as crudely as the
average open circuit electric doorbell
! n a mouse and nowhere near as re-
liable; when radiators were mostly
tubes With funny fms; when the car
buretor was not much of an improve
ment over an ordinary cologn atom
izer. and the muffler spoke like a min
iature Calling gun.
Those machines, however, served to
demonstrate the feasibility of the au-
tomobile. The bright minds of Ameri-
can inventors, engineers and mechan-
les have produced the flawless, de-
pendable. almost indestructible car of
today-and in a decade!
