 Enthusiasm of Hunts followers has been heightened by the dis covery that this young aspirant to the heavyweight crown had &C., complished his notable record while handicapped by a severe spinal injury received in an auto mobile accident more than year ago.

AUBURN SHOW
BOOMS SALES
JAP Cars Are Sold During
Exhibition.

CHICAGO, May 23.-One of the
most successful demonstration
weeks ever staged in the automobile
industry ended here May Is, result
ing in the sale Of 142 Auburns and
the lining up Of many more pros
poets.
The week was known as ."ShoW
Me" week and was an elaboration
of the Auburn sales policy laid
down by E. L. Cord four years ago
that of making car so good that
it would sell itself.
1t is the belief of Cord that the
public has become motor wise and
that it is using the same business
acumen in buying automobiles that
it uses in buying real estate or
bonds. In other words, the public
wants to be shown as to values.
In commenting on Show NE"
week, Cord said:
1T is our belief that a salesman
can not talk something into car
that is not built into it. The public
understands values and unless these
values are in the automobile, buy
ers look elsewhere.
Our sales policy, inaugurated
four years ago, was to build car
so 6ood that it would sell itself. In
order to make this plan successful
the public must try out the cars
and prove to itself their worth.

Sometimes while driving along
with nothing, in particular in mind
motorists observe certain things
about the performance of other
cars and turn these observations
into practical use.
Tor instance, have you ever
noticed the fellow who suddenly
steps on the gas to go by and then
suddenly slows up because Of traffic
conditions ahead? When he de-
celerates has it eyer been your good
fortune to note that puff OF blue
smoke comes from the exhaust Of
his. car?
If this observation has led to the
thought that this momentary smok-
Ing is the result Of oil sucking into
the cylinders and burning when the
throttle is suddenly closed, you
have learned the value Of removing
your foot from the accelerator now

oil can be sucked up into the CYL
