After having studied the automo-
bile situation for the last 10 years,
the conclusion that arrived at for
the selection of an automobile in
their different price classes is this:
If you must confine yourself to q
four-cylinder car, in my opinion you
are wise to buy one of the cheaper
four-cylinder cars, on no occasion to
pay more than 800. My reason for
such a price is that the trend of pub
lie opinion at the present time is for
high grade skies. A cheap six is
worse than no car at all.
On the other hand, if you pay more
than 500 for a four-cylinder car,
you will find that at the end of a
period of one year you will have a
car on your hands not suitable to
yourself and in order to make a
change to get a Six it will be neces-
sary for you to stand material de-
probation. You must place your
four-cylinder car, for which you pay
5000 to $1,000 this year, against new
cars of the same type and same num-
Der of cylinders which will be selling
next year at from $500 to $3.50.
We, the Olympia Garage company,
have foreseen these conditions and
have guarded you against them by
offering you line of cars this year
that will only have to stand very
small depreciation should you want
to trade in and get a new car next
year-the Chevrolet, four-cylinder,
completely equipped with all modern
conveniences. $675 at Olympia; the
Buick valve-in-the-head Six. $1,135
Olympia; the Cadillac Eight, the
acme of comfort and luxury, $2,23O
Olympia.
AS to the reasons for selecting the
Chevrolet as the best buy, in our
opinion, for the amount Of money in
vested, it is because you are getting
a car designed and constructed by
group of engineers who are thor
oughly conversant with high grade
construction. You will find the Chew
rolet to be thoroughly built and con-
tanning all of the improved and up
todate methods of manufacture, in
Guiding cantilever springs, three
speed transmission, three-quarter
floating rear axle, in fact all of the
features that are used on cars costing
several times the price of the Chew
rolet. We gave this car a thorough
test in Seattle, satisfying ourselves
that it will give maximum service at
a minimum cost. We obtain as high
