The Scripps-Booth Cars
Triumph in a New Roll

The Scripps-Booth car, in addition
to Beau Brummel beauty, style and
grace, continues to display extraor-
dinary might and endurance.
Nature made all OF the arrange
ments for recent Scripps-Booth rec
ord. During recent trip from Detroit
to Cleveland by r. H. Spear in a
Scripps-B Booth car there was a heavy
downpour of rain, which continued
the entire distance and made roads
well-nigh impossible.
Speed on this trip was not to be
considered. Endurance was the thing.
The doughty Scripps-Booth iourne eved
rieht along for forty miles on second
gear through mud almost to the hubs
and with axles dragging part of the
way.
Colors flying, however, as during the
entire trip there was not the slightest
| mechanical trouble. A most remark
able test-a test which left many
bigger, heavier cars utterly stranded al
the roadside, sunk deep in the mud.
It was q test which proved that the
lightweight tScripps-Booth car. euuipped
with its perfect mechanism, Is able to
| Withstand and overcome road con-
ditions that completely overpower
many heavier and higher priced cars.
These features of endurance and
power possessed by the Scripps-Booth
no doubt explains why their car is be-
ing chosen by so many owners of big.
heavy foreign cars, such as the Mer-
cedes. the Rolls Royce, the Berliet, etc.
The Scripps-Booth has all of the me-
chanical conveniences of these big cars
and the further advantage of being
light in weight, which features COM
bine to make 1t a car practically un-
affected by weather or road conditions.
The manufacturers have featured
the Scripps-Booth for its beauty. 1t is

KNIGHT MOTOR ON
A LOW PRICED CAR
Sleeve Valve Type Has Been
Adopted by One Of the Largest
Manufacturers of Cars

Since it became known that one of
the big American manufacturers was
to build a Knight motored car to sell
in the thousand dollar class specula-
tion has been rife as to who the manu-
facturer is. and what the actual price
of the car will be.
Charles Y Knight, inventor of the
famous knight sleeve valve motor,
states that he has been literally
swamped with letters from all parts
of the country, requesting further in
formation on this latest entry into the
automobile field.
During the past few weeks" says
Mr.. Knight, my office has been
showed under with correspondence
from interested motorists, asking for
details. To me, this is positive proof
of an extensive market for a Knight
motored car selling for so low a
price.
1.-THE whole trend of motor car de-
sign to-day is toward silence, smooth
ness Of operation and comfort. And
the sleeve valve motor is conceded by
most experts to be the one logical
medium through which all three of
these requisites are made possible.
"A few years ago the noise emanat-
ing from the motor cut little figure in
the selling of g. car. AS a matter OF
fact, shrewd statesmen have been
known to make capital of it. If the
prospect was sportively inclined, they
found little difficulty in convincing
him that the noise indicated great
power of the motor. But the buyer
of to-day is not easily fooled. The
smoother and quieter the action of
the motor, the greater the appeal Of
the car.
ut is the silence and comfort of the
Knight motor that have made it a
popular favorite throughout the world.
This type Is regarded in Europe as
the crowning feature of high
automobile construction. Practically
every foreign manufacturer of note,
who could secure the rights has
adopted 1t.
and economy of operation have been
proven in many tests of endurance
and speed.
"One of the chief advantages of the
Knight type of motor is its character
istic of improving with use. In this
respect it differs from all other types
of engines. The carbon deposit that
is harmful to most of them, has the
opposite effect on the sleeve valve
type. Through constant use. the slid
ing surfaces of the pistons and sleeves
become polished, and the slight de-
posts of carbon which collect around
the rings and sleeve ports give air.
IlSnI SSdliIS. IiuS tnS iouBSi Ihe
Knight motor is used, the quieter and
smoother its action becomes.
81 believe the day is not far distant
when the sleeve valve motor will dis
place all other types for motor cars.
Although I am not in a position to
give the name of the manufacturer
who will produce the new Knight car.
I can state definitely that the car will
contain the highest quality through
out The low price at which it is to
be sold is due to the fact that the
producer has almost unlimited manu-
featuring facilities and that he has
solved the all-important problem of
building and marketing Knight motors
in large quantities"

Automobile Manufacturers
Behind in 1916 Orders

Indications from all over the coun-
try lead to the prediction that the
coming year will be the greatest in
the history of the automobile industry,
the remarkable growth of which has
been the wonder of every class of
businessmen, especially the financiers.
During the 1916 selling season which
has Just closed for practically every
popular make, the outputs were closed
out during the latter part of May or
the first part of June. Already a large
number of the more prominent have
made their announcements in the
newspapers of their plans for the COM
ing season.
a few have obtained an early start
and are already delivering cars. 1t is
the experience of these few concerns
which made plans to meet the early
dmand that causes the prediction that
the 1916 season will be most won
derful one, for the anticipation of
these wise ones was not enough and
there is to-day q shortage of cars The
new models which were put out early
have been grabbed up at q rate that
factories have not been able to keep
up with orders. In speaking of this
situation in the automobile field Lee
Anderson, sales manager of the Hupp
Motor Company, says:
There has mover been anything like
the present situation since the early
days of the automobile industry when
factories never thought of putting out
machines in quantities. The demand
for cars of popular price is the great
est to-day that it has ever been de-
spite the fact that more machines are
turned out every day than ever be-
fore. Due to our big 1915 season we
closed out early and made our plans
for the early production of the 1916
types. These new models were first
produced for our dealers convention
the first week in June and the pro-
duction started Immediately but 80

from G.. A. Saunders. of Shelton, Va,
speaks for itself

think what they arc able to do now
after their five years accumulated ex-
perience.
"All the lessons learned by years of
Hudson experience are compounded in

these lines that the performances OF

appeals which go straight to the hearts
of people of distinction and fashion.

and arranged certain tests. These tests

could be had if all the guests would
come and help gather in his precious
hay, so scarce on the islands, of the

with several ladies aboard each, the
gentlemen began to attempt their
skill as haymen by pitching it aboard
and having it tramped down by the
fair occupants of the wagons. When
a wagon was filled all would ride to
the barn and back again to the field,
enjoying themselves to the greatest
extent on the lovely day seized upon
to do the work. The participants were
