immortalized by William Hazlitt, the
great English writer. Randall might
have whipped the heavyweights of his
time, but when he proposed such
match he was laughed at, for in those
days none but big men were consider

LOW UPKEEP IS
SELLING HELP.
Medium Priced Cars Owe
Huge Sales to Moderate
Maintenance Costs.

New York. Jan SIT is intensely
interesting to compare the questions
OF motor enthusiasts who are attend
ing the show this season with the
questions asked by visitors OF former
years." remarked John n. WHY'S, pres
ident of the Willys-Overland company,
OF Toledo, Ohio, after overhearing the
remarks OF several visitors TO sales
men in the Overland booth at the
Grand Central palace.
AS I stood there listening 2 moment
ago, I could not help thinking Of the
tremendous changes which have taken
place in the automobile industry in
comparatively short time. changes
beneficial to both the general public
and the motor car manufacturers
1t has only been within the last
year or so that the purchase Of an au-
tomobile has been considered from the
standpoint of a business investment
Big, heavy cars, costing Up in the
thousands of dollars. were all that
would formerly interest people, even Of
moderate means. and as for those who
could afford a high-priced car they
would no more think Of driving any
thing else than walking.
"A striking evidence Of the trend OF
the times Is shown in two sales re-
ported by Overland dealers within the
last few weeks. IN both cases, four
cylinder 0verlands were purchased by
men to whom the price was a matter
OF little moment One is a prominent

But the manufacturer doing bust
ness on a large production scale has
been the revolutionary influence in
the automobile industry. He is the in
dividual who has demonstrated that
motor car of pleasing appearance, pos
sessing good riding qualities and which
Will give good service can be sold for
a very moderate price when manufac-
tured in large quantities.
ITO my way of thinking. the feature
which is really responsible for the sue
cess of the medium priced automobile
is its low upkeep expense.
The best way to attract a mans
attention is TO hit him in his pocket
book. Whether you reduce or increase
the amount OF money in it merely de-
termines the kind Of an expression on
his face The medium priced car puts
money into the owners pocket because
of its low upkeeD cost and this more
than anything else. changed public
opinion from its old habit OF Judging
automobiles solely BY the amount Of
the price tags"
