AUBURN PRICES
GUT, BUT VALUE
/ IS MAINTAINED
Lower Cost OF Materials and
Labor Account for Big
I Saving.

In almost every circle OF manu-
facture, lower prices for materials,
and improved labor conditions have
made It entirely possible to effect a
reduction in price.
Surely no one can deny the leader
ship of the automobile industry in
this move.
The same buyers OF other commodi-
ties, says Manager Bryant, of the
Thaden Motor Sayies Company,
local representative for the Auburn.
In every line they look for the great
est value they can possibly obtain in
every expenditure. This attitude is
a very logical one and is the result
of the abnormal buying period which
we experienced a year or so ago.
The price of any article is very
naturally one of the most serious
considerations in the purchasers
mind. However, the public has not
gone to the extreme OF buying on
price alone. but on the other hand
are always found quite willing to
study thoroughly and compare the
value before buying, or, in other
words. they are shopping around
This attitude is really to be well
coined. 1t will put value and quality
where these two characteristics be-
long. There has been some ten
dency to become panic-stricken with
the cry of lower and lower prices to
meet a seemingly demand on the
part of the public for reductions in
cost. Prices have been slashed in a
great many cases at q sacrifice OF
quality. The result is found in the
service the product gives the pur-
chaser.
The price of the Auburn Beauty
Six is now lowest in its history, over
$500 lower than in 1920. This saving
has been made as result OF lower
cost of material, and improved
methods of production, but in no
way at the expense of quality. In
fact, the 6-51 is beyond question the
best automobile we have ever built.
Not only has quality been upheld
in the manufacture of the 1922
Auburn Beauty-Six, but we have
worked increasingly to better our
product and to give the motor car
buyers more and more for their
dollar. You need only study our
present car, part by part, to find
where we have maintained and built
I'm the quality of the product.

NOTES OF CAUTION.

Put on skid chains at the
first sign of wet weather.
Approach all crossings eau
tiously. The worst accidents
occur at these points.
In wet weather apply the
brake with the clutch stin en-.
gagged when starting to stop.
When negotiating a grade or
curve do not jam the throttle
too soon. Bad skids occur this
way.
When overtaking and passing
a car do not cut in again until
about so feet ahead OF the car
just passed.
On approaching a grade
crossing shift into second gear.
This will eliminate stalling the
car on the crossing.

VETERAN GOLFERS
 FAIL TO QUALIFY
James Braid, Five Times Winner, Seems to Lose Eyesisht on Links

Chicago. June 2l.--(By Associated Press)-Failure Of James Braid, five times winner of the event to qualify ship at Sandwich largely through failure to hole responsible butts, brought forth discussion by an expert on the failures of veteran golfers.
 Weak In Shots
 According to this authority the ma ture golfer shows his first signs Of weakness on the greens and not in the power of his drive or the exact ness of his iron shots, presumably in dicating that the focus Of the eyes changes unevenly as the years roll by. H. Chandler Egan, of oregon, who won the national amateur title twice, returned to national tournaments last year after a few years of retirement, and failed to qualify at St. Louis, largely through his cratic work with the butter, His drives were mostly long and straight and he approached with considerable acumen, but thu eye for the hole when he came to putt was not so exact as it used to be.
 Poor Eycsight
 While neither Egan nor Braid is an old maid and they may yet win titles, according to the expert they seem to be in a period of uneven eyesight that nukes in judging the fine line of a short shot to the IA inch cup.
 Won First In 1900
 Braid first won the British open title in 1901 with a score of 300. He failed to repeat during the next three years. Alex Hard, Harry Vardon and Jack White winning with scores of in 1905 and won with SIS and repeat ed in 1906 in 300,
 Fourth In 1908
 After lapsing in 1907 when Arnaud Massy of France captured the title for the first time it ever left England, Braid won his fourth crown in 1908 with record score of 291, the best figures ever returned in the event and tettered in an international open championship only once by Chick Evans who set a record of 2S6 in 1916, two strokes better than the run ner-up. Jock Hutchson, who is now defending his title as British open champion.
 Stopped In 1910
 J. H. Taylor took the crown from Braid the next year with 295, but the 1910 with 299 He has never won since, but this is the first time he has failed to qualify.

TWO RING CHAMPS
 LOSE THEIR TITLES
IN. '. State Athletic Commission Expects Others to Follow Action

New York. June 21.--Two cham pions of the ring-Jimmy Kilbane and Johnny Wilson respectively feath- crweight and middleweight title hold ers-stood deprived of their titular rights today, so far as the Jurisdiction of the New York State Athletic com- mission is concerned, for failure to accept the defis of challeneers. IgnoIcs Challengcrs. Kilbanes championship claims were declared forfeited by the commission for ignoring Johnny Dundee's chal- lenge. In Wilson's case although &C., tinn was withheld to give him the full benefit Of the time limit, his title was considered automatically for feited today for failure to agree be- fore midnight last night to terms for la match with Harry Greb, light heavy weight king.
 Action Precedent. The commissions action establish ing precedent in ring history was the result of notice served on Kilbane and Wilson several weeks ago that failure to comply with the commits tion's demands by June 20 would mean the forfeiture of their titles, so far as New York state is concerned. The commission it was indicated by Chairman William 7eMuldoon expects endorsement of it's ruling by boxing commissions in other states and also in Canada.
 Expects Cooperation.
 While the commission has no bind- ing agreement with any other box ling body" Mr. Muldoon declared I've have sustained their rulings and they have reciprocated. For example, when the New York State commits sion suspended Wilson for breaking the Greb contract our ruling was re- |spected by Massa ac husetts, Connecticut, Louisiana, New Jersey, Canada and the cities of Philadelphia and St. Louis. My belief that these same states and cities will recognize our action is based on my conviction that we are doing what is right, and that this fact will appeal to other box. ing authorities"
 Dundee and Fr,lsll
 The commissions official announce ment that Dundee and Danny Frush of Cleveland would be considered as the leading contenders for KilbanA's featherweight title was followed last night by the announcement in Cleve- land by Frush's manager that he had signed for a Is round decision contest with Dundee at Ebbets field. Brooklyn, August IT.

 Dave Rosenberg of Brooklyn and Greb will be considered by the cen- mission as the leading cortenders for Wilson's title. It was declared ne- 5otiations were under way to bHipg them together for a title match.
