PUTS QUALITY BEFORE PRICE
Buick Dealer Declares Motor Car serv-
ice is All Important Factor-Speaks
From Experience-0tto Wilson
Defines Policies on Which
Company Has Built
Success

Now that most of the motor car com
panies have made their 1916 announce.
ments there is great deal Of talk in
motoring circles concerning the prices
at which the new cars are to be sold,
Along with these discussions there has
also been much talk concerning the low
est price at which satisfactory mo.
tor car can be marketed. =
"The average motor ear buyer has q
tendency to look at these questions from
q mistaken perspective, " said Otto Will
son, local retailer Of Buick cars, recent
ly "A great many of our automobile
buying friends do not take sufficient
pains to make sure Of getting salts
factory ear. They pay the closest at
tehtion TO price, because price is the
thing that concerns them most at the
time Of making their purchose. Later,

California, the players remaining for
the closing matches are the men who
were generally picked to fight their
way through. Johnston's stick was
boosted high today as a result of his
defeat of Behr and he is regarded as
a strong contender Another coast
player must be eliminated today, how
ever, as Johnston meets G. j. Griffin
of San Francisco. 1t was Griffin who
beat Ward Dawson, of Los Angeles, and
reduced the number of California repre-
sentatives to three.
Mclaughlin has one decision over
Johnston for this year in the exposi
tion championship. The "comet" was
forced to his limit to win, however, and
should this pair meet again here a reaI
battle is anticipated.
The matches today were:
R. Norris Williams and Williams
Rand III; N. G. Wright and 7. R. Pell
w. M. Johnston and G. j. Griffin

They O. X. d the suits OF. the women
dsapproyed by the men censors, but
denounced the apparel Of the men
bathers ms immodest, shocking and
otherwise deleterious to the public
morals
Then came suggestions from the ox'
treme radicals that men be made to
wear sleeves and skirts The feminine
bathers, who had adopted costumes
closely akin to those worn by the men,
declared themselves willing to wcp,
whichever was dccrcod for the men,
They argued that in swimming the less
clothing to hamper the body the better
for the swimmer. They snid that the
men long ago had settled upon n sono
bathing costume, and il was but nutur
nl that women should follow.
Neutrols in five OF the principal
bathing resorts in the vicinity of Los
Angeles are hoping that some genius
will arise and design bathing suit
that will be adaptable TO either sex
and please all. Meanwhile the battle
is raging, with only minor advantages
to either side here aud there. In
I Venice bathrobes must be worn by
bathers going to and from the beach.
/ AZ Redondo there is disposition to
lift the lid in proportion to the tight
ening in rival resorts. Long Beach
apparently is eager for compromise;
Santa Monica and Ocean Park remain
sizzling between two fires.

POLK TAX PAYMENTS HEAVY.

Tuesday was the last day to pay
taxes without penalty, provided no part
of the tax had been previously paid.
AS a result, Deputy Sheriff Hooker and
J. +. Richter have been completely
"snowed underr with the turned over
TO County Treasurer Holman of $5,6OS,''
% which had been collected last week,
and from Saturday night to Monday
night more than $4,000 more had been
collected. Then the mail receipts be-
came so numerous that the two deputies
have been so busy writing receipts they
couldn Z stop to add up the totals. y
is safe to say, however, that sessisi
thousand dollars have been received

Large Crowd Watched
Final Round In Rain

Detroit, Mich, Sept. 4.-Despite a
downpour of rain which made the fair
ways soggy huge crowd followed
Robert A. Gardner of Chicago, and
John G. Anderson, of Mount Vernon,
N. Y, today when they began the final
round for the American amateur cham
pionship at the Detroit country club.
The greens were slow and the putting
uncertain.
There was little to choose between
the men and betting was at even money.
Gardner won the national title several
years ago and Anderson was runner up
to Jerome d. Travers in 1913. Both
are players of the highest class, but
Gardner is somewhat erratic and Ander.
son is noted for his steady and consist
ent play.

however, they find out that motor car
service is vastly more important than
motor car price.
There is "a minimum below which il is
impossible to sell u satisfactory motor
car; that is, II car that win give salts
factory service. The Buick Motor COM
pany always has bcou guided by that
great truth in making and selling cars
Buick prices are made as low as it ~
possible to make them, and at the same
time deliver ear tnat will give the
motoring satisfaction the average buy
er expects.
Buick ears could be made to sell
for less, but they wouldn't be as good
as tine Buick cars we are now making.
We probably could sell great many
more Bucks II we were to make tho
kind of cars that would justify lower
price; but we prefer TO keep our quality
standards at their present high level
We are positive that this policy win
pay us and pay our customers in the
long run. "

idents Of the beach were the ones who
clamored for board Of censors TO set
the styles for the bathers.
Censors were appointed from mem

tempted 10 censor well, but, being mere
men and never having worn water

creed that n clirt reaching TO the knees
should adorn every feminine bnthcr.
They believed that they had satisfied
all Of the radicals and imposed not hard
ships on any bathers.
