it's motor. providing at the same

safety,
The interior construction provides
everything Of utility embodied in the
larger cars of much higher price.
The wide deep seats of the Over
land are cushioned over springs such
as are used in the finest upholstery.
The seats are Of sufficient width to
accommodate five passengers COM

The upholstery used throughout
the open models is of long grain

as in a Pullman sleeping car. In
the coupe the upholstery is of blue
Spanish leather and in the Sedan
the upholstery is of brown striped
velour.
The tenders are of heavy sheet
covered with linoleum, aluminium
bound. The fittings are nickel and
polished aluminium.
The bodies are in keeping with
the simplified design which marks
the Overland as almost revolution
airy. The All-Steel Body offers only
an additional means of securing light
weight without sacrifice of strength.
In fact, it actually gives added
strength to the car.

Studebaker Standard
Six Sedan Striking
New Automobile

Now comes to the market another
new Studebaker car the standard six
sedan.
While designed specifically for
families to whom price is a principal
consideration, the corporation an
nCunces it has made a special effort
in it's construction to give durability
and continued service over many
years with the object of enabling
purchasers who must consider eN-
penditure carefully economic trans
portation in a vehicle of such rich
ness and high quality of finish that
they might not otherwise be able to
consider.
Thus the new sedan which has
just reached quantity production has
genuine mohair upholstery; a lac
oueroid finish requiring twenty
three processes to complete: auto
matic windshield cleaner and rear
view mirror; rear quarter reading
lamps; glare proof visor; silver
fittings, heater, walnut trim-these
refinements are seen from within.
Then it has full balloon tires on
sturdy spoked wheels of natural
wood finish full nickeled. deep radi-
ator with winged cap; rear light and
stop signal; steel apron over the
vision windshield.
For the driver. new mechanical ar
rangements include removal of the

board so it won't consume the most
important 10 per cent of drivers
foot room space: removal Of the
spark advance from the steering
wheel, with automatic advance;
putting all lighting controls on the
steering wheel, at finger tips. elimi-
mating cropping under the wheel for
the switch; ball type accelerator to
relieve foot fatigue: grouping all in
struments under one oval glass, in
directly illuminated: coWl ventilator
operated by light pressure of the
foot.
The motor is the new so horse
power unit power plant, low speed
engine, with waterproof spark plugs
and timer, preventing short circuits.
-Four wheel brakes with steel disc
wheels optional.
These are the outstanding features
of the Standard Six full-quality
sedan, Studebaker built, which now
Comes to the open market.
The entire body of this car is
built in the Studebaker plant at
South Bend. The same care in
workmanship and in selection of ma
terials goes into it's construction as
are employed in the manufacture of
every body built by this corporation.
This is made possible only by the
fact that the large quantity of
bodies made so reduces the over
head expense that quality may be
kept at this high standard.
The new Sedan is being displayed
conspicuously this week

The designing engineers of both
the chassis and body divisions of the
engineering department were order
ed to build an entirely new auto
mobile.
Service records yielded Informal

Three entirely new motors were
designed and rejected. Finally a
fourth motor was completed. Two
were built and roped into two racing
chassis. These racing cars were
sent to various hill-climbing con-
tests throughout the United States,
the majority of records Of which
were held by the old Jewetts.
In every case the new motor in
these racing cars bettered former
records from five to twenty seconds.
This was regarded as such a re-
perfect this motor went through the
engineering department.
In the meanwhile the body division
had not been idle. The trend Of the
times had been watched. especially
the new lines in the worlds most eX-
pensive cars. Rounded lines. lower
appearing bodies, more lasting
finishes and finer upholstering SEEM
ed to be the desire of the buyers Of
the more expensive cars.
The body division met these de-
sires and passed them by designing
superior ventilation, better tops on
open cars, more comfortable seat
construction, additional leg room,
concealing hinges in hoods, doors,
windows and the like.
Word that four wheel brakes were
adopted for the new Jewett caused
the body division to provide stronger
framing and better joints to resist
added body tensions coming through
greater strain caused by more abrupt
stops.
Springs were designed that would
give a better balance to the body.
This was necessitated because of the
adoption of a full-size balloon tire
that had a different action on the
springs than the old fashioned high
pressure tires. The steering gear
had to be made entirely new to meet
differences in steering that came
through adoption of the larger bal
loon tires. A worm and sector gear
OF lower ratio with a external adj
justment is now used in the Jewett
steering apparatus.
The frame was redesigned but re-
sembles the old type except for a
new cross member.

"The deep, restful seats are upholstered
in choice grade of mohair cloth. APP

and refinement. This beautiful low-priced
sedan is a deliberate attempt of Nash
engineers to build an enclosed car value
of high quality at the least possible price.
There is little doubt but that it will prove
an outstanding attraction at the Shows.

The story of the time and effort
applied toward the building of new

and IL truly g. romance of industry.
The Paige-Detroit Motor Car
Company decided in 1921 to bring
out an automobile which would
honor and perpetuate the name of
the man who has been closely
Unidentified with the growth of the
company. Harry M. Jewett. The re-

cheering and experimental depart

the best automotive counsellors in
the industry.
The Jewett in 1922 was regarded
as being far in advance of the
times. It was the first six-cylinder
automobile to be sold under $1,000
that was a sales success.
After the new announcements had
Detroit Motor Car Company decided
that to maintain its lead with the
Jewett six a brand new car would be
necessary in 1925.
Early in February, 1924, the en-
cheering department got the { 60

president in charge and G. Clark
Mather, chief engineer perused SER
vice records. OF course they were
familiar with the general per-
Torrance of the Jewetts, but specific
details regarding any complaints
were sought.
The original idea, it appears was
to improve and perfect parts of the

But as they worked into the vari-
GUS performances Of Jewetts, as
shown by the service department
records. Bachle and Mather agreed
that the policy employed at the
time they brought out the first
Jewett should be followed.
