done! 1t is utterly inconceivable that a car con-
tanning these units can be anything but depend
able and satisfactory-the best of its kind.
And in this connection there are two points of
extreme Importance to rememberl They are:
~ that Westcott does not use just one or two of
these standard units for talking purposes but all
of them, big and little. in every part of the car;
and (2) that, to honest units, Westcott adds
twelve years of experience in combining these
parts into a completely satisfactory car that
lasts long and performs wonderfully during all
the years of its long life.

Reduction

To further understand the startling nature of
this price reduction, consider again the "C-48"
7-passenger touring which one year ego was
$500. At present it Is $4,000. The new cut will
bring it down to S209o-a saving of 5000, and
total reduction of Sl1Oo in one year! The &C

Thursday night had the best time of

Gus passages were generous enough
with the audiences intelligence to
leave something to its Imagination.
Also. there was constant action and
enough perplexing situations TO keep
things constantly on the move with
out calling in the reserve robes de
mutt to save the occasion Finally
and most important the cast was
creditable one. Mr.. Stubbs is a nat
ural comedian. His sincere awkward
ness was SO appealing that every liar
in the place took Stubbs right into
the sanctum sanctorium of his heart.

ganda" by making public the facts

department was meeting in enforc-
