COME, LET US
REASON TOGETHER

In the automobile industry the "Announce-
ment Period" is now at its height. All
the advertising mediums, the country over,
are filled with Important Announce-
ments" proclaiming the birth of new
models or sensational changes in old ones.
The prospective buyer, who is not in close
touch with the situation, may become con-
fused by these adroit attempts to stampede
him in this or that direction.
This condition has prompted the writer of
this advertisement to make the following
general observations, which he believes,
and is prepared to prove to any one who
will call at his place Of business 4O7 Main
Street, Canon City, Colo.
1915 has demonstrated the superiority of
the Six Cylinder car over ali others. For
1916 the Six will have the field to ITSELF.
There will be but few buyers for Fours at
$1,000. No matter what name plate they
carry.
1916 will confirm, what has already been
shown in 1915, that the Assembled
Car" has great advantages over the
"buht In One Factory Lar.
Cars equipped with "HotchIiss Drive" will
give more than 35 per cent more tire mile
age than cars using the old style Torsion
Rods or Torsion Tubes.
1916 will emphasize the passing Of the fol-
lowing features in motor car construction
T Head Motors; Valve in the Head Motors;
Air Cooled Motors, Cone Clutches, Friction
Drives, Flat Tenders; Tubular Radiators;
Heavy Cars; Straight Gears, Torsion Rods
and Torsion Tubes.

thinks and investigates before he buys will find that
