The Stmdebaker Car
4 Car of Proceed Economy

This is proved by the official registration figures
of California, which show that in California
there are more Studebaker cars registered than
any other car selling at over $500.
Although Studebaker cars are probably the
most powerful cars on the market in ratio to
their weight, they are very economical IN their
consumption Of gasoline.
Their weight is so perfectly balanced that
Studebaker owners frequently get from 5000 to
10000 miles on single set of tires.
Their remarkable accessibility reduces adjust
ment and repair expense to minimum.
For these reasons Studebaker cars are distinctly
economical to operate
Due to their high quality and mechanical per-
lection Studebaker cars have uniformly high
values in case of a resale or trade-in.
For this reason Studebaker car is very eco.
nomical to own.
Therefore, if you want to get the most for your
money-if you want to practice true economy
by purchasing wisely, follow the example of
those who know by study, and by' service
rendered-buy Studebaker.
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1917-06-09

TCONONIY is measured by value received.
r. The man who studies and anal Yves and
~ compares usually gets the most for his
money. Economy means wise buying.
In Detroit, where thousands of people are
directly connected with the production of auto
mobiles, where people know from daily contact
the organizations producing 800 of all Ameri-
can cars, there are more Studebaker cars
registered than any other car selling at over
$500.
In other words, where automobile materials are
studied and automobile workmanship analysed
and compared, where practically everyone is
motor-wise, Studebaker cars are bought in
greatest numbers because they are known to be
the best values on the market dollar for dollar
Of their prices.
Detroit's judgment Of Stakeholder Value is vim
Dictated by the performance Of Studebaker cars
on the roads of America.
In the Far West, on the stage routes of the
Rocky Mountains, on the hardest, hilliest drives
in the United States, Studebaker cars stand up
and give the service at minimum expense for
upkeep and repairs.

encouraging them in their stand
against the measure. Such actions will

Over two hundred arrests were

that registration day will be attended

up by the war department and acted

Activity in Mining Quarters Expect

SEATTLE, JUNE 2.-The steam
ship Victoria sailing yesterday from
Seattle for Nome, St. Michael and ex-
treme northern ports, carried the
heaviest passenger list recorded here
since the memorable boom days of
'9S. Five hundred passengers repre-
senting the summer colony of the
Nome miners and mine operators were
on board. and the decks of the big
vessel were piled high with freight
and vegetables. The Umatilla also
carried three hundred passengers for
northern ports, and both vessels car
ried thousands of sacks of mail, which
has accumulated in the Seattle Office
during the winter months.
1t is expected that mining activities
in the North will surpass those of
any year for a decade, owing to the
high price of ores.
