NEW FEATURE.
Riding comfort has been increased
by wider, lower seats and greater leg
room. New features of conveniences
have also been incorporated in these
new cars. The gasoline tank is now
filled from outside the car and in the
open types, a door at the drivers
left permits entry or exit without dis
turbing the front seat passenger.
Both transmission and rear wheel
brakes have been enlarged.
Herpel- Gillespie have built plat

in pure white contrasts beautifully
with black cars. A roadster in the dis
play is equipped with practically every
known accessory for a Ford car, in

fancy decorations and other things
which make the car attractive.

size Of the gasoline tank and changing
its location called for another increase
of 1000 tons. Effecting the changes
