PRICE MODERATE
BUT QUALITY HIGH
Oakland Owners Attracted
From Former Users of More
Expensive Cars

When Andrew Redmond, local
dealer for Oakland motor cars, took
over the agency for Oaklands he was
confronted with the proposition of a
moderate priced car and a clientele
which had heretofore purchased only
the most expensive automobiles
Mr.. Redmond had for several years
dealt in the most exclusive motor
cars.
Now a large number of Harrisburg
ers are driving Oaklands, and not only
the standard models, but special body
jobs which Mr.. Redmond has devised
for their particular benefit.
You would expect the man who
has driven moderate priced cars tc
be confident in the purchase of an
Oakland, but you might look for some
skepticism from the people who al
ways have used high priced cars" says
Mr. Redmond. But it doesn't work
out that way.
AT first my friends took Oaklands
largely on my recommendation. Now
they come in and buy them because
they have found them equal to much
more expensive cars in performance
and stability.
Harry Payne Whitney owns two
Oaklands and Alfred 1. du Pont has
three in his garage"

AUTO Is NOW
AN INVESTMENT
p. II. Keboch, Jackson Distribu-
tor, Points Out Change in
Buying Methods

The public now weights motorcar
worth to a greater extent than for
merly, because the automobile has
now come to be regarded as a staple
article, like real estate, furniture, ma
chinery and other units involving a
large expenditure, according to P. H.
keboch, local sales representative of
the Jackson Automobile Company.
Motorcar buyers don't rely on first
hand impressions. nowadays, says Mr..
Keboch. They consider the dollar for
dollar value. and buy in accordance
with the real worth of the CARTS
durability economy, and so forth.
The motorcar buyer is also wary
of any car that he has reason to
think may soon become an orphan"
that is, q car that may cease to be
manufactured. Such cars, for obvious
reasons. always decrease in value
quickly after the company which
manufactured them dies.
There can be no stronger proof
dustry than the fact that the motor
car is now taken in exchange for
land, improved property. machinery.
and such things, which have acquired
the stability which comes with the
centuries" says Mr.. Keboch.
More and more the industry is get
ting away from circus tactics, - in
which, by the way, some few COM
panies never did indulge to any great
extent
Racing was one of the sensational
features of the automobile business.
Gradually, racing has fallen into dis
favor with manufacturers. To-day
comparatively few companies seek
representation at track meets"
"One of the earliest American COM
panies to race its cars was the Jack
son. The manufacturers of the Jack
son soon decided, however, that rae
ing did not reveal the true qualities
of the motorcar, and took the lead
in proving the worth of its product
in a commercial instead of a sport
ing way. The example set by the
Jackson Company has been followed
by other manufacturers, and the ver-
dict now is practically unanimous,
that motor car racing, in which COM
peting cars are tuned up in every
possible way, does little or nothing to
prove to the public the superiority of
any one motorcar."

Super. Latin prefix meaning over,

That's about where the word

until the Hudson Motor Car Company
introduced the Super-Six motor car to
the world. Then the magic wand
of business was waved over the term
and this meaning was changed and

affairs as any other well-known noun
or descriptive word.
The selection of the name Super
Six" for the new creation of the Hud-
son Motor Car Company, was quite q
simple matter. The first tests of the
new motor indicated that it was one
of amazing power. In the workout
given 1t at the factory it was pitted
against all the other types. In won

showed marvellous superiority. Clear

that would fit it. "Over, above, be-

forward step in motor design, hence
it was christened the super Six"
BY that name it entered the arena of
