'Look a Car In the Mouth
Before Buying; An Easy Job

ERE AUTOMOBILE history
M divided into eras these could
be easily determined by the
special features on which the sellers
OF cars have harped in the various
periods. For a long time power was
the principal consideration in the pur-
chase Of a car For in those days
cars were few indeed which could de-
velop even sufficient power for ordin-
airy uses.
It is was only a question Of time
and improved motor design until all
cars were equipped with engines which
could pull them out Of any difficulty
Then reliability became the watchword
Having produced the power 1t was de-
sirable to keep it in continued use
And that, too, was a problem which the
majority Of manufacturers were not
long in solving.
There was an era when sturdiness
and strength were proclaimed as in
dividual virtues. There came a time
when flexibility and minute mechani-
cal improvements were the order Of the
day Then came easy riding quail
ties. then comfort. ease of control, and
ginning Of the era of luxury.
The motor car today is the product
OF all the lessons taught by these
eras. 1t is the elimination Of all and
each Of these special features which
engineering skin has brought to the
front one by one
The time has come when a man can
walk into any sales room and pick
any car that strikes his fancy and feel
reasonably assured that he viii get
car that viii run long and well and
comfortably. Let him assure himself
OF good local and factory service and
he need have no fear in purchasing
any car
But it stands TO reason that better
equipped factories or factories with
wiser homogeneous. can produce cars
which contain the maximum Of des1r-
able features at a minimum cost In
other words, the present era is one %
car values. The question that con-
fronts the car buyer today is not
whether he can get a car that win

how much car he can get for a dol
lar.
To judge car. he must dissect #;
