SQUEAK AND RATTLE
ARE DRIVERS BANE

Nothing so CRATES on the nerves of
automobile drivers and passengers as
| car body that grunts with each road
bump or jolt and interrupts conver-
sation with rasping squeaks or rat
ties says ]. r. Saylor, manager OF
the local Overland agency.
"The new Overland body construc-
ton has been one of its great sources
of popularity with the buying pub
lice. In the construction of this body,
thick, high grade steel is thrust into
giant pressing and stamping machines
and is removed from the dies in varied
and interesting shapes.
Zone piece of steel has become the
shell of door. Another steel plate
takes the form of the tonneau. The
curved top of another steel shell indi-
Gates its purpose as the back OF the
drivers compartments
Each of these pressed and stamped
forms is assembled and welded to-
gether. By this process the various
parts become a single unit. There
are no bolts to work loose, and no
screws to pull out. The welding pro-
cess makes the new overland body an
all-steel, one piece unit with not
chance of body squak or rattle.
,.The rest of the construction and
upholstery is of the same quaiity.
Added to this is paint job not pos
sible with any but all-steel body. a
body with wood in 1t would not stand
the extremes of heat and steam to
which this body, in the painting pro-
cess is subjected.

CAR VACATION
become SYNONYMOUS

That automobile owners will use
their cars to q greater extent than
ever before on vacations this summer
Is the observation of Wallace Brothers
distributors OF Studebaker cars, who
say:
The old Idea of leaving the car at
home when going on vacations and
dependingson railroads is passing out.
The change in attitude among auto
mobile owners Is due to the fact that
they have a much larger appreciation
of the convenience and Reliability of
their cars, as well as the greater nuns
Der of users to which they can be de-
voted.

railroad train, travelling to a summer
