ANOTHER MILEAGE
RECORD MADE BY
W0CO PEP AS FUEL
GRAY Stock Car Makes 38
Miles To Gallon In
Huntsville

Another mileage record for Woco
Pep is being cited by the Wofford Oil
company since receiving word from
Huntsville that in a competitive test
in a Gray car Woco Pep motor fuel
made 80 miles on one gallon and
half of motor fuel, while gasoline
gave only 20 miles on gallon and
half. The test was made by the
Huntsville dealer for Gray cars and
was made in stock model five-pas-
senger car carrying four passengers.
Observers of the test run examined
the spark plugs after the Woco Pep
run and found them to be clean.
According to a story appearing in
the Huntsville News, the Gray car
was driven from Huntsville to Fay
etteville the start being made from
thr corporate limits of Huntsville and
the run being routed over what are
declared to be the worst roads In the
county, The Gray car took all hills
in high and the gears were not
changed during the entire run.
Officials of the Wofford Oil com
pany have added this latest record
to a number which Shave been made
throughout their territory and are
citing this run with the Gray as
further proof of their claim of More
miles. less carbon for Woco Pep
motor fuel.

JORDAN STOCK IS
HIGHER IN PRICE
THAN ANY OTHER.
All Jordan Dealers Are Report.
ed As Doing A Splendid
Business

The highest priced motor stock in
the country today is the Jordan. 1t
is selling at 800.
Six years ago this common stock
was given as a bonus with the pre-
ferred, which now sells at $3.50.
Jordan will sell in the first half of
1928 as many cars IS the factory
built in the whole year of 1922.
Twice as many dealers are now
selling the Jordan as handled the
line year ago.
The April production schedule calls
for rs cars a day.
THE most important fact about the
Jordan situation" said Edward S.
Jordan, "is the fact that all Jordan
dealers make money, due to the con-
stantly growing demand for second
land Jordans at a higher price than
can be obtained for any other car in
its class

MATERIALS USED

SHOW INCREASES
Have Been Gradual And Have
Not Aroused Widespread
Attention

DETROIT. Mich, May 81 The
ige-Detroit Motor Car company in
compilation made from leading fl
nancial reports and publications
shows that the prices of raw mate
rails entering into the production of
motor cars have in every instance
been increased.
The increases range from nearly
125 per cent (rubber) down to per
cent Cime). Steel, cotton and glass
show increases ranging from 33 per
cent to 100 per cent, according to the
statistical department of the Paige
company Mr. H. NJ. Jewett, pres
ident of the company. further points
out that Babson calls attention not
but also to the fact that they have
been so gradual since March. 1922. as
not to arouse widespread attention.

Jewett, Shows in chart form com
parson of prices of March of last
year and this year. Rubber leads the
list, next comes ferromanganese.
fourth cotton, followed by lead, wool
steel, pig iron, hides, copper, etc.
An outstanding feature of the Bab-
son report noted is that of the 20
items that showed the greatest in
creases, ten are used directly IN
large quantity in the production of
motor cars"
The Paige president, when asked
the answer to this steadily rising
cost OF materials pointed out that
either quality must suffer or auto
mobile prices will advance.
I'VE definitely and positively will
maintain the quality of Paige and
Jewett cars" says Mr.. Jewett. 1.-THE
advances that must be made to en-
able us to do this will be as moderate

At Cruse-CrawfOrd Co,

representative of the WHY'S Overland
company. Toledo. O.. has been in the

service department of the Cruise
Crawford Manufacturing company,
the local WHY'S Overland dlstribu-

Il am more than gratified with the
condition of Cruise Crawford Manu-

a reporter. The station checks up
to the standard set by the factory"
1t has been realized by the WHY'S
Overland company that the giving of
service after the automobile is sold,
is as important a feature of the
automobile business as selling of the
car. When the owner of a motor
car knocks the car he has paid out
his money for, the reason can gener-
ally be- attributed to poor service.
The sales department has sue
ceeded in selling the car, but the
service department has fallen down
on the job and the owner becomes
a knocker instead Of booster and
the manufacturer of the car is the
one who SUFFERS" he said.

A manufacturer can build the best

and the service should be at a price
which will make a booster of the
car owner, instead of knocker.
For this reason we are paying
more attention today to service than
at any previous time in the history
of the industry" Mr.. Bryant said.

ON BEAUTY SCORE
Dealer Takes Trip Through
Paige Factory At
Detroit

DETROIT, Mich, May 5.-"How do
you build the automobile that year
after year maintains its position as
the most beautiful car in America ?"
asked a Paige dealer while on a
visit to the plant last week.
H. NJ. Jewett. president of the
Paige Detroit Motor Car company,
believed that the dealer should be
shown and not told.
trip through Plant was ar
ranged and the dealer taken to
where the bodies are trimmed and
story building he saw the Paige
completed from the bare chassis to
the shining nickel trimmed open or
closed car.
On the fourth floor were found
The painters and enamelers finishing
and baking the hoods in the various
color designs.
The third floor was the finished
Paige being given it's final inspec-
ton and incidental corrections in
workmanship. Here the Paige $40
had received it's body after each
frame had been lined with anti
squeak.
on the second floor was seen the

which earns the Paige the name of

bodies already completed and in

mers then are assigned to the body.
The open and closed cars in some
places We're given the same small
fittings. such as the aluminium SHIN
which protects the body from the
hood cover. 1t shows between the
cowl and the hood.
The dealer was fascinated by the
care taken by the two men who rlN-
eted this alumnuS SHIN to the cow.
one man fitted the shaped metal to
the cowl while the second carefully
clamped it on. The softer metal

After the clamps had been tight
ened, the SHIN was pierced at each
hole previously drilled in the cowl.
Two long strips of anti squeak"
leather were then clamped around
the shin. These were pierced and
the riyets inserted in each hole, only
three inches apart.
The second man applied riveter
and with the aid of his partner soon
had the SHIN. covered with anti

cowl.

PRICE OF ELTO MOTOR
TO ADVANCE ON MAY Is
Ten Per Cent Increase To Be Made
Next Week

Prospective purchasers of "Elto'
cupboard motors are notified by
Cruise Crawl Manufacturing com
pany. that an advance of 10 per cent
in price will take place on May Is
and that and early placing of orders
is advisable. These little motors are
meeting with an exceptional demand
just now as the fishing and boating
season gets under way. They are
especially adaptable to use in the
Warrior river and goodly number
Ct them are already in service on that
stream. They are light, convenient
and easily carried and develop un-
usual power They are said to be
the most dependable of all cupboard
motors. 1t develops three horse
power and is the most powerful of
lightweight motors and the fastest. 1t
is also the lightest per horse power.
A unique feature of the Elto is
that the motor automatically tits
when it hits an obstruction thus pro-
tecting both boat and motor. You can
go anywhere the fish are with an
Elto and many an ardent disciple of
old Isaac Walton owes his record
catch to the fact that his boat was
powered by an Elto.
