Gliding Ride Is Result Of
Many Changes introduced
BY Manufacturer

Buick, now In its goth year as a
builder Of fine cars, has IS distinctive
models on three Wheelbases In the
series so. 60 and 80 this year, each
with smooth streamlines in bodies
and tenders and furnished with revo-
lutionary chassis and other mechani-
Cal changes that record another year
Of engineering progress.
F1eck Motor Sales, Inc, is the Buick
dealer In Bismarck, and will exhibit
new models In the Bismarck auto and
style show next week.
Buick has concentrated on produc-
ing gliding ride. This Is accom-
piished by four main factors-"knee
action" wheels, which allow the use
Of soft front springs; balanced spring.
iEg and weight distribution, which
consists OF matching the softness Of
the front springs to those Of the rear,
and distribution Of weight In COM
bination with this type of spring to
prevent pitching; ride stabllizer that
prevents roll: and air cushion tires
that absorb small road shocks. Be-
cause of q combination Of these fea-
lures, the back seat ride Is quite as
comfortable as that In the front seat,
which has riding qualities that are
almost incredibly smooth.
Front wheels are carried on fric-
t,onless coil springs that form a part
OF Buick-built individual suspension,
with all that means as to sturdy,
dependable construction. There is no
front axle and there are no stiff leaf
springs. Instead, there is a special
front cross-member, replacing the
axle, with the coil springs, and ""
shaped arms above and below them.
The springs and the arms together
make each front wheel a unit in meet
ing and absorbing any possible road
shock. When a front wheel meets an
obstacle or a depression, knee &C.

wheel affected and IS not commune

Truck Production in
1888 Showed Increase

Approximately 1863, 900 motor trucks
were produced by American manufac-
tIrers In 1888 as compared with q
total output OF 237, 500 In 1892, accord
Ing to an annual report made public
by A. J. Brosseau, Vice president OF
the National Automobile Chamber Of
Commerce. The Is per cent in
crease reflects not only improvement
III general business conditions, but
also the pressing need for motor truck
service to fill shipper requirements IN
moving commodities cheaply and
speedily" the report said. Motor
truck production should continue on
an upward swing with business be-
cause Of the expansion in truck use,
and because the replacement field has
been sadly neglected in previous
years"

Fisher No-Draft Ventilation, indi-
v.dually controlled, remains a driving
comfort and safety feature. It means
all the fresh air wanted without
drafts and prevents dangerous fog
ging on the interior of the windshield
and windows. The hinges Of the No
Draft ventilators are fully concealed.
The new models are wired for ra-
do, the aerial being located In the
top OF the body with the shielded
lead-in wire following down the left
corner post and into the body.
The body models for both the six
and straight eight chassis include the
following:

Has Air Cushion Tires
Air cushion tires, completely new

sGres, contribute their full share to
the gliding qualities OF the 1894 Buick
ride and the ease and safety with
which the car is handled. Moreover
they are absolutely noiseless in travel

These include a Vacuum Servo me-

pressure, but new Smoothness and

Clutches on the new models are re.
markedly smooth and function with

best engine performance with the
greatest economy.
All Buick engines are mounted in
rubber. at five points, and the driver
IS never conscious Of the engine, even
at 30 miles an hour.
Dual Starting Mechanism
Starting at once, IN all WeatherS, Is
