the important thing is not economy,

sirable is not merely saving labor, or

The automobile increasing length

No man is better entitled to pub
lie thanks than the manufacturer of
a good automobile sold at fair price
And the price may be fair, whether it
be three hundred dollars for a car, or
ten thousand dollars.
Meanwhile, if you haven't got your
automobile Get It. An automobile isn't
like horse, it doesn't eat when it
isn't working.
You can take your family to the
mountains, the lakes, the seashore.
You can take them across the Con-
tinent to California, or south to Flor

tic State of great opportunities, or
northwest to the glorious Seattle
country, or up to the Maine woods,
down to New Orleans.
When you have an automobile YOU

can get it is not extravagant either

Nobody can estimate the value of

And what is true of farmers is true
of other classes. Ask the doctors, es,

bile, their value has been multiplied
by four and five, their possibility of
doing good work, and also their own
earning power
Ask those that understand the labor
problem. The shortage of labor, of
building mechanics especially, has
been largely overcome in rural re-
gions by the fact that the carpenter
or mason now thinks nothing of go
ing ten miles to a job.
The automobile has saved every

United States Leads the World in Automobile Ownership
Quantity Production Brings Price Within Reach of All
EVERY DOLLAR SPENT FOR MO-
TOR CARS is WELL SPENT
ALL SHOULD OWN ONE
BY Arthur Brisbane

by 3IllAll ACAtoOeAAS
One thing the people of the United
States have done thoroughly and well
better than any other country, better
than all the countries put together,
and that thing is Automobile produc
ton.
The civilization Of a country is
judged by the average comfort. And
on that basis this is the worlds civ
ilized country.
Years ago, when there were a few
hundred automobiles only in all the
United States, this writer predicted
that a nation buying two million bug
gies a year, to be dragged over the
muddy roads by slowly moving horses
would eventually provide roads wor-
thy Of the automobiles.
That prediction has come true al
ready. The genius and good Judgment
of American manufacturers have pro-
duced cars by the millions, and most
wisely and fortunately for the coun
try the constant effort has been to
lower the price and increase the
quality
Only such quantity production as
this nation has achieved would make
possible the reasonable prices Of
automobiles today
This is country of high wages and
high prices. Yet, because the people
buy on big scale, and the manufac-
turers compete earnestly in low cost
production, you can buy for your dol
lar in the United States twice as
much real automobile value as you
can buy for that dollar in any other
country in the world The other
countries admit it, do not attempt to
compete with this country
There have been financiers and
others so shortsighted as to suggest
that the United States spends too
much money on automobiles. And
some that do not understand condi
tions or true values speak of the auto
mobiles as a pleasure vehicle"
Every dollar spent for automobiles
has been well spent and has brought
back two dollars in value.
There is no such thing as pleas
ure automobile" You might as well
talk of pleasure fresh air" or Of a
pleasure beefsteak.'
Time-Its Value to Men
The automobile saves Time, the
most valuable thing that men possess,
the most precious, the most important
The automobile truck, tractor and
gas engine have doubled the life of
the farmers by enabling them to ac-
complish twice as much in a given
time.
When those who read this were
boys trip to town meant that the
farmer must lose a whole day. He
must pillow along through the deep
ruts, taking the horses from work on
the farm.
Now a "trip to town." with time
enough to do the necessary buying,
