NEW PACE

Introducing for the first time
in automobile history a super
charged car selling for less than
$4,000, the Franklin Olympic
leads the way for greater
engineering efficiency to be in
cluded in future low and medium
priced cars.
Operating without the addition
of a single moving part, the
Franklin supercharger packs the
incoming charge Of gas into the
cylinder head, obtaining greater
and smoother power. and a more
efficient use of fuel.
Brought out year ago on the
Franklin Airman selling in the
$2,50O class, and developed for
the powerful Franklin Twelve,
$50 horsepower engine, the
Franklin supercharger is now in
cluded in the Olympic.

Style will be the autocrat of
the industry in 1888.
Not merely good looks or the
use Of a greater number. of gad-
gets or even added harmony of
line and design make possible that
elusive something called "Style. "
It's that subtle artistic touch that
we all recognize as SrnartneSS, but
few of us manage to describe.
That something will be the die
Gator of the automobile business
this year.
Let me tell you why.
The recent economic recession
with its resulting benefits in the
elimination of waste in industry;
greater efficiency in management
and the lowered cost Of materials,
together with the industry's inten-
sive application to the text of
more automobile for the money"
all have combined to provide
in the 1888 car the greatest dol
lars worth of automobile ever pre-
sented to the American public.
All the 1888 cars are physically
better cars than their 1882 proto-
types. All have new mechanical
features, new convenience fea-
lures and new comfort features
every automobile showgoer will
agree to that. But every automo-
bile showgoer, at the same time,
will agree to the fact that they
haven't all got "style."

Hudson Motor Car Company

AS these annual show periods
mark a milestone along our path,
It is very fitting that at these
times we, of the automobile indus
try, should pay tribute to the
press which has so faithfully fol
lowed and reported the progress
of the automobile industry since
its inception. While automobile
ownership has long since ceased
to be a matter Of distinction,
nevertheless the automobile still
continues and always will con-
tinue to be one of the leading
matters of popular interest.
The material furnished for
these automobile discussions is
in the news of the industry as
published in the daily papers.
Nothing is followed more closely
by our younger generation than
stories about the development of
new cars. New accomplishments,
new records, new feats Of per.
formance and entrance are all
reported and eagerly followed and
the fact that the newspapers
have seen fit to thoroughly cover
the advancement of this industry
has been in itself an inspiration
which has Spurred the industry
to greater efforts.
Therefore, we say that at this
time of the year when the shows
again become focal centers of in
terest, it is in the newspapers
IT, the public will read of these
new models. It is due to stories
in the newspapers that they will
throng the aisles of the shows
and it is no more than fitting
that we, of the industry, should
express our appreciation.

Bic SALES RISE.
SEEN NEARING

"a study of the production
figures of the industry leaves
no doubt that the research
experts of the National Auto
mobile Chamber Of Commerce
are substantially correct in
placing the average life Of the
passenger car at close to seven
years."
A. VanDerZee, general sales
manager of Dodge Brothers Cor
poration, thus observes, adding:
"The circumstance that cur
rent car registrations show
decrease can only be inter-
preted as meaning that the
greater part of current sales
are replacementS Of wOrn-Out
units.
This is further borne out
by records tending to show
that not more than five out
of every hundred retail sales
are made to firSt-time pur-
chaSerS; the other 95 sales are
to customers replacing old cars
with new ones or to multiple car
owners.
"Since we know the average
car life to be seven to seven
and One-half years at the most,
it is reasonable to assume that
most of the 3,948,843 autOmO-
biIeS produced and sold in 1925
will be ready for replacement
sometime during 1885,"

ROCKNE KEEPS
To THE FORE

Celebrating its first anniversary,
the new 1888 Rockne six makes
its first appearance at the automo-
bile show here.
The new Rockne six is roomier,
more powerful and more beautiful
than its predecessor, which, since
its introduction a year ago, has
climbed from thirty-first place in
the industry to a position among
the first ten leaders. The 1888
models and list prices indicate
that this Studebaker sponsored
car will continue to offer quality
features heretofore found in auto
mobiles costing from $500 to $700
more.
Bodies of the new Rocknes have
been made larger, more comfort
able and more attractive. The
chassis, already tested and proved
by three years of engineering ex-
pertinent and one year of practi-
cal driving by owners, has been
improved. The motor has been
given increased power. The dis
t1nctive Rockne aerodynamic lines
have been made further stream
lined. improvements in equip
ment and features that make driv-
ing simpler and more pleasant are
abundant. Interiors have been re-
fined.
In the line are de luxe and
standard five-passenger sedans; &c
luxe and standard coaches; de
luxe and standard coupes, with
and without rumble seats; de luxe
and standard five-paSsenger con-
vertible sedans and de luxe and
