seating radically different from the
conventional design of four springs
paralleling the chassis frame. New
as this spring suspension is, it is inter
esting to note that the design has been
approved by the Society of Automo-
bile Engineers. n
Before the final adoption of the new
springs, special breaking and humping
machines were rugged up at the fac
tory, and the cars, after that supposed
ly destructive test, were sent out on
trial trips which carried them into ev-
cry section of the country in all sorts
of weather conditions. The cars were

as to absorb road shocks from tn e
worst of pavements or roads. The
WHY'S Overland engineers make the
unusual claim of having produced q
car that rides well on any road.
( Second-Economy. The new springs
so protect the car. from road shock as
to make possible much lighter weight
and hence great saving in fuel and
tires. Furthermore, the car is SO sim
pie and accessible that costs of upkeep
and repairs must be greatly reduced.
Yet the cars parts have q protected
accessibility-a big factor in upkeep.
The car is assembled from five units
only. The chassis is clear OF. all involv-
ed mechanism. The entire assembly
requires only so bolts. The engine is a
remarkably high.grade. thoroughly up
to-the-minute power plant. compact
and simple. The neatness and clean
ness of design bespesk the ready ac-
feasibility to all parts.

Unusual Public Interest Has
Been Centered in This
Latest Model
New Type of Springs
Three-point Suspension De-
sign is Introduced For
The First Time
Big Car Comfort Claimed
WHY'S Overland a sser S
Springs are Greatest I'm
provement in Motor Cars
Since Pneumatic Tires r.

Overland 4, the new car of light
weight construction for which the pub
lie has been waiting since its introdnc-
ton was first rumored at the automo-
bile shows about two years ago, was
placed on exhibition in Cresco today at
fthe Overland salesrooms of Ahefn
Bros.
The men and women who inspected
the Overland were representatives of
the visitors to Overland salesrooms in
3 thousand cities, towns, and hamlets
of the United States. The company's
dealers, from Maine to California, and
from Washington to Florida, now have
on display one or more of, the new
models described as embodying 1.-The
greatest improvement in riding COM
fort since the introduction of pneumat-
ic tires" IN T.,
New Type of Springs. Il.
This improvement is the use of three
point suspension springs. Unusually
graceful in body design, Overland 4
makes a splendid impression on the Wis
itor. 1t was this new spring suspen-
sion, however, which absorbed motor
list attention at the salesrooms. 1t is q
combination, of two principles that have
been used to greatest advantage in au-
tomobile constructions: First, that of
cantilever springs; second, the flexible
three-point construction.
The luxurious riding comfort these
springs furnish the car was immedi-
ately understood and appreciated. 1t
is this feature which gives to the new
Overlandi car, designed for light
weight, that degree of riding comfort
and security hitherto possible only in
high-priced, heavier cars.
But this is only one of many feat
ures in Overland which back the
Willys-O Overland Company's claim to
success in giving the public "a new
standard of riding comfort.
The actual creation Of Overland 4
began more than two years ago. The
last two years have been devoted to
testing and perfecting each part of the
car. Back of it, development stand
ten years Of successful manufacturing
and engineering experience in giving
the public good motor cars. For the
immediate Development and produc-
ton Of Overland 4, John N. WHY'S has
concentrated the vast resources of the
Willys.O Overland Company. Produc-
ton will be on scale which will a.
sure the greatest economies in manu-
featuring. ~
Ideals Guide Design.
Guiding the development of this re-
markable new car was Mr.. WHY'S
ideal of motor car which would COM
bine with the economy of light weight
all the comfortable riding qualities and
the stamina of the heavy and expen-
sive automobiles. He proposed car
of built-in quality which would free the
owner from all possible up-keep ex-
penses. This was not possible, the
company claims, until the WHY'S Over
land Company devised this interesting
three-point spring suspension, a spFing
