Nothing can ever take the place of
this quality of dependability as a
test OF an automobiles value.
AVID there Is no better way o: dis
covering which car possesses THIS
Quality t. a marked degree than BY
watching and asking, to paraDhrase
the old Biblical injunction.
Observe the cars on the city streets
and the country roads. Notice the car
that is always running and never
pulling up at the curb or along the
side of the road while its owner
| thinkers with its mechanism. Notice
the car that starts promptly when the
owner wants ii to start, and stops
| just as surely when he wants il to
stop. Go into the garages and repair
shops and learn what car gives the
least trouble to it's owners.
Above all, inquire of your neighbors
and friends regarding their cars, en-
phasizing always this quality OF de-
pendability.
Your search is sure to bring you to
the automobile whose makers have in
sisted on dependability first, last and
most of all; whose engineers have
drafted dependability into the design,
and whose craftsmen have incorpor-
ated dependability into every minute
part of the chassis

Everyone who visits the lafayette

Is easily pronounced. This skilled

The family comprises four models

space has not been sacrificed. Roomy
pockets in the doors and compart-

under the rear deck of the roadster
and miscellaneous articles. A unique
innovation is the pocket in the back
of the front seat of the touring car
for the storage of side curtains.
The open models are fitted with a
one-man type top attached to wind
shield which is double adjustable
with lower glass curved to fit top

pretty and unusual touch to the
