Pleasing Lines
Not Only Virtue
Of Dixie Flyer

1t was a wise man who said that
beauty was only skin deep" and
the same adage applies to automo-
biles. Women motorists who choose
the Dixie Flyer, universally recoG-
nized as The Sturdy Car" are
happy in the conviction that they
own a car which not only impresses
one as being distinctive in appear
ance, but also one which is of proven
durability.
Looking beneath the fine exterior
OF the Dixie Flyer one will find
that every standard unit has been
aptly chosen and, through engineer
ing experience and skill. co-ordi-
mated into a perfectly functioning
whole. There are qualities which
indeed determine the real utility
value Of any car, and. in the Dixie,
give the assurance Of dependability
under conditions unusual and un-
foreseen.
There is nothing so radical in the
lines OF the Dixie Flyer as TO pan;
none the less the car is one of
striking individuality in its distinc-
tive oriental blue green finish. There
is a Clean-Cut, well-defined simpH-
city about its body emphasized by
bcveI edges, gracefully sloping an
cular hood and square 15-gallon
gasoline tank.
An added comfort it has, too,
which women motorists appreciate.
Deeper cushioned seats with dou-
bic padding and durable finish,
gypsy curtains, wide opening doors
ample foot room and larger plate
glass in rear curtain-these are
some Of the advantages that make
for increased body comfort and
convenience.
One Of the signal delights of the
new Dixie Flyer is its unusual ease
OF riding. This Is not a chance oc-
currenCe. Spring suspension in this
model has been accorded greater
Importance than means of hanging
body on chassis. The Dixie Flyer
possesses a greater proportion of
spring steel than any car of equal
weight. and is so correlated with
the weight Of the car itself that
strength and easy riding are com
bined attributes.

automobiles and three or four man
nlkins and moves them about in a
manner clearly to explain the work
