paratlve car values expressed at the re-

hkely be conferred on two well estab-

e gathering much impetus to their
popularity during the past two or
three years. These are the 5-passenger.
~aH~seasons' enclosed job, and the A.
passenger open sport model.
Representative of these, and especial
ly noteworthy because of the distinc-
ton which they hold as being high
quality brand" in the moderate price
category, are the Elgin Six Sedan and
Victory Scout models.
One sourc of distinction enjoyed by
an Elgin Sedan comes from the fact
that it expresses, admirably a very
modern version of correct design. In
view of this the Elgin has influenced
the choice of ON of the most dis
eliminating buyers. who. in many
instances could well have afforded
much more expensive cars. Yet, it is
because of its sensible and commodi-
Gus arrangement, and the substantial
assemblage of it carriage work, which
meets so well the less conventional
family requirements at a comparative
ly moderate initial cost and mainten-
ance that its popularity is particularly
noticeable throughout the gamut of
medium priced car buyers.
