DISTINCTIVE DESIGN J IN LIBERTY SEDAN
Body Mounted on Standard Chassis, Which Remains
 Practically Untouched

The Sedan recently brought out by the Liberty Motor Car company of Detroit, presents the usual distinctive appear ance of all Liberty models being marked by the straight lines and trim appear ance which have characterized this com pany's products from the start How ever, there is an obvious intention in the general design to insure absolute comfort as well as a distinctive appear ance.
 The location of the doors is such that easy entrance for the driver is permit ted without the necessity of disturbing any other passengers. This is accom- plished by staggering the doors, the one on the left opening into the driver seat, while the door on the right opens into the rear compartment. As the front seats are separated, all seats are thus easily accessible from either door. The drivers seat is adjustable
 The new Sedan gets much of its smart ness from the top, which is hung some what lower than in average practice The car is upholstered in pleated gray whipcord and is fitted with silk cur tains. The exterior is finished in CO., bait blue and the wheels may be pro- cured in straw or cobalt, either of which harmonizes with the body
 The switch controlling the interior lights is placed at the side of the rear compartment so that it may be conven- tent to all occupants The door to the front compartment may be locked from the inside, thus making it unnecessary that more than one key be used to lock the whole car from the outside. As with certain other Sedan models of the advanced types, the front windows drop

If five years later the same assertion was made, it would have been passed off with, "Oh, well, that may be, but we will never see the day!"
 If person makes the same assertion today. he Is promptly stamped as par rot.
 And while we are 'if-ing-'if there isn't greater shortage and greater price tags attached to this product before many more moons a great surprise awaits the men who proudly offer their lives in the defense of the few cars they are able to get until their original purchasers appear upon the scene and the responsibility can be shifted
 VALUE OF MOTOR TRUCKS
 The value of motor trucks in all lines of work has been proven already be- yond any doubt. We have bus lines in operation that have proved the ability of the motor car, as well as the truck, to compete with both steam and elec- tric transportation. While they have re- placed neither of the systems entirely they have undoubtedly usurped that nat ural growth that would have favored both of the systems in the course of events.
 The horse-drawn delivery wagon has become almost a novelty-and yet only matter of months ago 1t was the &C., cepted mode of delivery in many lines of commerce.
 Thoughts of farming and live stock have always been linked firmly together. Rural life has always been pictured as remote from the rest of the world, an old fashioned house. with chickens over the bare yard, a COW or two some

freely expressed about the manner in which truck interest in Alabama could be best advanced.
 One point above all others was unari- mously agreed upon-that the truck is national institution, born of necessity, created to endure. The possibilities of developing the extra heavy duty trucks for overland transportation was also touched upon.

 lord and master of the brood coming in
 with his horses or mules tired out with

 and reaction in an effort to ''get to bed
 early" in order to get up early and
 finish that bit of land
 FARMER BUSINESS MAN
 Today as We see the farmer he is a
 man of the world. One of the worlds
 accepted business men. His land Is
 plowed and worked by motor tractors.
 The work is done better and in much shorter time with less effort. The do-
 mestic work is all done by power and
 at the end of the days work the entire
 family are ready to take a drive in the car The farmer is enabled to make
 quick trips to the city for anything necessary, to keep in touch with the do- ings of the world, to provide more pleas ant surroundings for himself and fam fly, and to make himself a more valuable asset to the world in general
 To make a surnlise of the possibilities of the motor vehicle is imossible. De- velopment in the world today is too great and too rapid.
 The truck is only now being recog- nized for its proper value to the world said w. R. Mabry of the Alabama In- diana Truck company Indiana truck dis tributors.
