 This four-cylinder car is the per fected four cylinder model which had to be discontinued during the period of the war. in accordance with in- Structions from the United States government at the time all factories were requested to curtail production and devote every ounce of energy in the building of Liberty motors at the big Buick plant in Flint. Michigan, and other motor car centers.
 Just when the Buick Motor com pany was ready to get into big pro- duction on the four-cylinder model in addition to the six-cylinder cars, the
 emergency war measure was passed
 Since the cessation of the actual manufacture of these four-cylinder Bucks the engineers have not been idle.
 For years they have been perfect ing studying every detail in con- nection with this new car. Owing to the heavy demand for the six cylinder Bucks and the inability of the factory to turn out enough sixes to fill the orders which kept pouring into the main office from all over the country, the manufacture of the four cylinder line was delayed until the dealers urgent request for the resumption of work on the Buick four made it imperative on the part of the factory to begin the active manufacture of this smaller car. Since the original plans were form ulated for the construction of the four cylinder car many new ideas have been advanced by Buick engi- neers not only in the chassis, but also in body lines and refinement. These have all been incorporated in the four cylinder cars, which today have created such favorable comment
 on the part of the public and the dealers everywhere. Judging from the heavy advance orders. the four | cylinder line will prove to be IS pop

P|ERCE-ARROW' $ CARS ARE MUCH IMP PROVED

By eliminating the blind spot' which frequently annoys the driver of enclosed types of cars, the Pierce Arrow body designers have overcome a problem which engineers long have been attempting to solve, according to l.. E. Corcoran, passenger car sales manager of the Pierce-Arrow Motor Car company. The improvement is one of many which are incorporated in the new group of enclosed drive models just introduced.
 Closed cars have increased rapidly in numbers during the last few years because of their many desirable ad- vantages," says MT. Corcoran, but heretofore designers never have been able to approximate in them the free sweep of vision and the airiness of the open cars. To obtain a proper rigidity of body construction it was the practice to use heavy upright pill
