Accessories Help
 The Sale Of Cars

Practically every buyer Of a motor car, no matter how particular he may be, is quite likely to be suited in any saIesroom, providing, of course, that the car is anywhere near to the class he wishes. This fact, according to Mir. Robert H. Hass1er, of the Hassler shock Absorber organization, IS due to the wonderful assortment of high-grade accessories which the dealer has at his command.
 t'We'H suppose the buyer believes that the car doesn't ride easily enough, said Mr. HassIer What does the salesman do? Does he try to convince the buyer that his judgment is faulty? Possibly, in some cases, but usually he will show how the car can be made to compare with any other car simply by equipping it with Hassler Shock Alp sorbers. I know personally of dozens of car salesrooms where there is hardly one sale a year of car that does not have Hasslers on it when 1t goes out to the owner.
 Tn fact, a large number of dealers l even go so far as to have all Of their demonstration cars equipped with Hassler Shock Absorbers. thus bring ing the advantages of this world famous accessory to the attention of | the buyer even before he has raised an issue regarding the comfort of the car l in question.
 And the same thing is true of all other accessories. A buyer doesn't like the arrangement of the wind shield, for instance. All right, then he should secure a set of side wings. He may not like the arrangement of the foot pedals We'll and good, there are any number ot good devices for holding the feet com
 fortaoly and correctly in position while
 driving. Starting may be a bugaboo
 Then -l good prirner is installed whict
 sends pure gasoline right in the mani-
 fold or into the cylinders themselves
 The buyer may not like the upholstery
 Then very likely he is urged to buy sliI II covers which are comfortable and good
 looking because they may be laundered Yes, there is every reason why tho
 car dealer should give a great amount
 of credit to the accessories. They hell him to make sales; help him to keer his owners pleased; and what is no to be overlooked, they add much tc , his profits"

NEW O[DS FOUR
 |S ON WAY HERE

The fact that new member has been added to the Olds line in the form of a perfected four-cylinder car, re- verting back to one of the most popu- lar models ever made by the Olds Mo- tor Works, is no longer a secret. Just when the cars will arrive in Phoenix is a matter of conjecture. according 10 the Ferguson Keeler company but, say these people, it's arrival is expect ed weekly. The new Oldsmobile -Four" which is an addition to the already large line of cars made by the Oldsmobile manu- lecturers. represents the very last word in light-car construction. It is ex- tremely rugged with power enough for a car twice it's size, embodies all re- finements and is destined for an un- usually long life The job comes in a standard roadster. e-passenger, se- dan and coupe, the lines of all models ping of the last minute conception.
 The motor has a bore and stroke of 3ftx5A inches: vavle-in- the head type; detachable head all working parts enclosed. The block test devel- ops more than 40 horsepower. The frame is of cold pressed steel, channel section, seven inches deep, which is as deep as the frame used on the eight cylinder models. The wheels carry 32x4 tires. with cords on closed mod els. All other details are of the high est type, being typically Oldsmobile.
 Billy Ferguson's announcement of the car is contained in the following:
 "In the 23 years that the Olds Motor works has built automobiles, it has never outgrown the pioneer spirit. It has constantly stood in the front rank of that small group of manufacturers who conscientiously strive to correctly interpret the real motor car needs of the American public.
 "The new four cylinder model Is the outKrowth of public necessity.
 rH v1o fnr economic affairs there is need for sane economy. And Sensible Economy will continue to be the national watchWoro for many years following the return to normal conditions: Hence, thousands of people will welcome, we believe, car that perpetuates the Oldsmobile o,-altiv standards, yet offers decided .ntages of economy.
