THE OAKLAND
 GUARANTEE

The outstanding features of the
 new Oakland cars are many. First among these is the special guarantee now being issued to every new car
 purchaser by the local representa- tives, Pawlett & Company, Inc. of 642 Fairfield avenue. This guarantee, according to L. M- Pavglett, is the broadest guarantee so far issued by any automobile manufacturer in that it agrees to make all replacements free of charge for a service period of 15,00O miles, or the equivalent of two years use, should the engine develop oil trouble. Other features of interest are the new frame depth and rigid support for running gear, hand-pointed bodies. complete equip
 nent of each of the five models, such as cord tires, snuObers on all closed cars, sun shade, heater, velour up- holstery, and improved fabrication system. The sport model is uphol- stered in genuine Spanish leather, it has wire wheel equipment for which no extra charge is made, ale mite fabrication. In reply to a ques- tion as to how the public is respond ing to dealers efforts on Auto Show Week. MT. Paw1ett stated that the attendance so far has amply repaid them for taking part in the exhibf- ton. In spite of the extremely cold weather a number of interested pros- poets have visited the showroms and have proven to be actual buyers. The HoVel KlnQ or a IOcdl eXnlDlI IS ln- tended to stimulate buyers interest in the particular class cars they are vitally interested. It also provides means of seeing an different models under the best possible display con- ditions and offers prospective pur- chasers an opportunity to select the particular type best suited to their requirements, with the added advan- tage of having the particular car demonstrated on the road at time en- thuSiasm is aroused. Without doubt Auto Show Week will prove generally successful Nearby cities have planned to hold similar exhibitions dispensing with the old central show exhibit idea of the past.

Trolley Co.'s
 Flivver Bumps Big Jumbo Car

A crowd of pedestrians that rapidly
 assumed large proportions, had a lot Of fun at 3 o'clock yesterday after
 noon at Golden Hill and Main streets, poking fun at starters, motormen and claim agents of the Connecticut com pany. Ffguratively speaking all
 the brown derbies in town were do-
 mated to driver of a Ford emergen- cy truck, No 100. bearing license No.
 1101. and prettily decorated with the yellow and red of the Connecticut company. The little Ford was asked to try its hand at putting Jumbo No. 1883, 27 feet long, and built of steel, off the rails at this busy cor ner.
 On the first down the f1ivver was thrown for loss. and taken out of the game, along with a white way pole belonging to Father Bridgeport, and playing right guard. The whole marked with a big letter e." mean ing Stratford avenue to city line, and carrying as well wording to that ef- feet, turned from Main street into Golden Hill, as these cars have done everybody in town knows where the cars run. and makes 1t a point to keep track of the elusive routing of some of the lines. But evidently the driver of the truck doesn't know where the cars of the same Con necttcut company are supposed to roam.
 The two tried to make the corner at the sa me time, and when the long steel car turned the corner the troll ley company Ford got a thorough squeezing, and was put out of com mission. Traffic was tied up for a time in a thorough manner.
 No sooner had this tangle been strengthened out than another one Of the same type of trollevs. car Mo- 1886, was coming up Golden Hill street. It stopped at Middle, fol- lowed closely by a Ford delivery truck belonging to Hatch & Erickson, plumbers When the car was about to start the brakes allowed it to roll back against the Ford also braked. The automobile was pushed back a considerable distance, leaving a mark on the roadway made by what had been good left front tire. The tire was a total loss, and the Ford came near being crushed between the back travelling trolley and another car fol- lowing the aurom obf1e. Claim Agent Maloney of the Connecticut company had a busy afternoon,
