BIG CALL FOR
|. STUDEBAKERS

so tremendous has been the
success Of the Studebaker series
10 that we are forced to limit our
orders at the present time and will
fill them in rotation" said e. s.
Robinson, sales manager Of the
Little & Kennedy company, yes
terday.
Those who place their orders
right now will have better
chance to get their cars early, for
we have assurances that the sup
ply will not be great enough at
any time to keep a stock ahead.
Because of this shortage, we are
passing the word along to our GUS
toners, believing that they should
be protected.
Never before has there been
such a call for motor cars, Stude-
baker corporation officials assert.
The necessity of cars to speed up
war work in this county and the
greater haste of the people gen.
orally has made the motor a vital
factor in American life. The
Studebaker factory is getting into
full swing for quantity production
of the new models now, but every
car will be sold before it can be
shipped. So it may be seen how
vital the early placing Of orders
really Is"

Lest we transgresS.

More oft to smile,

To reconcile.

The angels song
And weave a strain of heaven music
