The Weekly Letter Of
Won Hann-YOung Co.

The Cadillacs are certainly making
themselves heard in the Hawaiian
islands this year just as they have
in the past Another shipment of
these cars was received by The Won
Hamm-Young Company on the Eur
line; six of which arrived and we're
delivered Immediately. These cars
were all sold to arrive, and the pur-
chasers were very eager to take de-
livery of the machines The fact that
the 1912 models have given abso-
lutely no trouble at all is placing
them on their old standard of relia-
bility. No automobile has ever been
built which has covered the require
ments of the public as has the new
model of the Cadillacs. The electric
lights and self-starter have Deen the
added Improvements which have filled
the longfelt wants; and now these
two features have proven themselves
so absolutely dependable the public
| is demanding delivery of Cadillacs
which are very difficult to secure.
The Hawaiian islands are indeed for
tunate in respect to deliveries this
year, as they are included in the for
eign jurisdiction, and are allowed eX-
ira shipments at early dates.
Every time a Cadillac is sold a new
friend is made by the dealer, which
is a most gratifying result. There are
some dealers who sell automobiles
which do not always please the pur-
chasers, and eventually there is
breach between the dealer and the
patron which has a far-reaching effect
and causes much dissatisfaction. But
with Cadillac sale it is entirely diff
ferent Every Cadillac purchaser has
been very enthusiastic and pleased
customer, as the cars have given
such excellent service and have cost
so little to operate that the owners
consider the dealer has rendered them
great service in helping them select
their cars. 1t is a very frequent occa-
sion to hear a Cadillac owner boast
ing of how little his car costs him to
operate. This conversation usually
lead to other sales on its strength.
Some dealers would not consider it,
but The Won fIamEl-Young Company
has greatly appreciated the co-opera-
ton with its many Cadillac purchas-
ers.
Enough stress cannot be laid on the
workmanship and material which are
to be found in the manufacture Of
these cars, and the wonderful care
with which they are assembled. An
other feature which these manufacture
ers have prided themselves on is close
inspection. The Cadillac factory has
multitude of very careful inspect
ors who question the smallest items
fact which makes the mechanics
very thorough in their work, as too
many come-backs loses a man his
position.
The Won Hamm- Young Company
also received by the Lurline Hupmo-
bile runabout and a Winton Six
seVen-passenger touring car. The de-
mand for the Hupmobile is increasing
all the time, owing to the good ser
vice that these little cars are render
ing. The world-encircling tour of the
little Hupmobile set the pace for other
larger cars which were not able to
complete the trip with as satisfactory
results. The Hupmobile arrived at its
destination a short while ago after a
most successful trip around the world
When one considers that the Hupmo
bile runabout, fully equipped, is sold
in Honolulu at the price of $500, it
makes a great impression on the
mind and for a person Of moderate
means, the very small expense of up
keep attracts much favorable com
ment A Hupmobile runabout is with
in the means of most any salaried per
son in the Hawaiian Islands; and as
an investment to aid good health it Is
an attractive proposition. It gives the
operator plenty of outdoor exercise,
and keeps him out in the fresh air
more than one can realize.
The Winton six" which arrived is
very handsome car with the
straightline effect, finished in a rich
French gray, with a fine white stripe.
The smoothness Of action and ease OF
riding are features which the Win
ton have strived to gain for many
years. The 1912 Model has made
