days when Barnum was THE
Prince Of Humbugs"
Mr.. Fowler is one Of the leading
men in the movie business when it
comes to writing full-length moving
scenarios.
There is a definite form to this
type of writing as it is different
from the regular novel as day is
from night.
Nearly everybody has an idea
about a movie story but very few
have the faintest idea how a movie
manuscript is built.
Up to the publication of the
screen play, The Mighty Barnum,"
by CoviciFliede, New York City
publishers, never has a full-length
movie script or screen play ever
been published.
More people come to this depart
ment for the same reason-how to
write a movie play. The only
answer to that is this book The
Mighty Barnum."
Here is a new form in modern
literature and as literature it is
commanding, powerful and tremen-
dous theater of reading.
I suggest that you read this screen
play as we'll as see the result of this
script which is now on view at
Loew's Palace.
This screen play in printed form
proves more clearly the worth of
fine actors and intelligent directors
in the movie business.
Mr.. Fowler has filled this book
with hundreds of directions and in
structions regarding the business"
of the 337 scenes which make up
this screen play.
The book is illustrated with
pictures Of many scenes from the
actual movie.
The book sells for 50.

make it of general interest, our surveys prove to us that our news paper advertisements are carefully read by women. Our salesmen re- port that in calling upon women motorists, they find that many times they are as familiar with the important features of the car as the salesman himself! And they even go as far as to quote phrases used in the newspaper advertising copy!
 It used to be said that "woman's place is in the home"
 But this is a changing world
 Woman, to-day, occupies a very prominent place behind the wheel.
 And when you view 1934s motor cars, you'll realize, too, that she played a very important role in their designing. For tradition has it that woman usually gets pretty much what she wants!

that great effsrt has been made to have the interior part of the car smart. regardless of the low cost
 on the price tag.
 You'ii find instrument panels. such as on our new Plymouths, of modernistic design. Glove compart- ments and thersconveniences. Women want cars that are easy to handle just as their husbands want cars that are easy to handle. If you ask any automobile sales man, he'll quickly tell you that the woman is his best booster If the car rides comfortably and drives with q minimum of effort. This year you will find even more effortless steering action in l the new cars. And 1894 is a year of the easy ride. New types of in- dfvidual front wheel springing; cars with a new redistribution of weight which makes possible a new riding ease. Springs have been very much in the news recently-and springs are an important factor when Mir and Mrs Prospect try out | the bumps in the demonstrator. Most times those demonstration rides are made with the wife in the back seat. And if that back seat isn't easy riding--that family isn't ] going to buy!
 1 A few years ago the workings of Ia motor car were mystery to the average woman. When she first learned to drive, she would be told to pull this lever" and "shift that one." To-day she's asking ques- tions. She wants to know why and what for.
 When she is told the car has an
 automatic clutch, she wants to
 know all about 1t. She wants to
 drive with it on-and with it off.
 She wants to find out for herself
 what its all about.
 She asks about gas mileage. She wants a car that's economical. She is the one, most times, who keeps the house. hold budget.
 And brakes-that's an exceed ingly important item. Our records show that one of our big selling
 points with women has been hy-
 draulic brakes on the Plymouth car.
 She's interested in safety in its
 every phase. What kind of body has the car? If it is all-steel, she wants to know about that, too.
 We have found that women are
 close readers of newspapers and

i by directing streams of water a. gainst the water jackets adjacent to the valve seats from holes in a pipe line extending the full length Of the engine. Pontiac's motor block has purposely been made larger than actually necessary to provide space for ample water iacketing. Pontiac employees the exclusive Cross Fl ow type radiator, which prevents evapora- ton in warm weather and con- .erves alsohol or anti-freeZe Solu- tions in cold weather.
 Metered flow full pressure lub- rication to all motor bearings, a feature pioneered by Pontiac in the low price field, is continued. This system provides a regulated flow through the connecting rod crankshaft bearings which remains unchanged regardless of bearing wear. Oil spray from the metered bearings bathes the cylinder walls. Connecting rods are rifle-drilled to convey oil pressure to the piston pins. The danger of oil tube break age is avoided by drilling all oil channels through the metal of the block itself.
 Although the engine develops greater power, the 10 per cent saving in fuel consumption has been effected by the efficient new cylinder head and by the new method of vacuumatic spark con- trol, operated by the vacuum in the intake manifold. Regardless of load or speed, this vacuum spark control times the cylinder explos- ions at the exact instant when each piston reaches the top of it's compression stroke. The Gaselector another economy feature, enables the owner to make manual ad- justment of the spark which ob- tains the last ounce of power and economy from any grade of gaso- line used.
 Winter starting has been made extremely easy by adoption of Q larger IT plate, 107-hour storage battery and by a generator of 50 per cent greater charging capacity.
 Electrical controls have been simplified. The starter control is now operated by the accelerator pedal. As long as the engine is operating, it is impossible for the starter to engage. When stalled in traffic, only one movement of the foot is neded to get the car un- derway.
 The warning signal of the 1894 Pontiac is a new type of "electric whistle" One combination of light ing beams suitable for city driving and another for country driving

New Pontiac Larger
 And More Powerful
Successor to Straight Eight Features Seven Smart
 Original Wind-Stream Bodies By Fisher

The 1884 Pontiac-successor to the straight eight which last year invaded the low price field with such spectacular success now presents even more highly com- petitiye values. The new Pontiac. although larger, faster and more powerful than before, remains a low priced straight eight. It offers marked advance in riding com fort and ease of control. Several Improvements in motor design re- suit in a 10 per cent improvement in econmy. Seven smart new windstream bodies have been created by Fisher.
 With the motor developing S4 brake horsepower, seven more than lin last years car, the 1894 accel- crates with silent, split-second pickup and attains an effortless road speed of well over 80 miles per hour.
 Independent Knee action" sus- pension of the front wheels is largely responsible for Pontiac's amazing improvement in riding comfort, especially for rear seat passengers. Other contributing factors are increase in wheelbasc to IF IA inches, increase in car weight to 3455 pounds (for the four door sedan, low pressure tires of larger diameter and mounted on a new type KY frame of tremendous strength.
 In Poniac's new front-end spring design the conventional front axle and front leaf springs are eliminat- ed, effecting considerable reduc- ton in unsprung weight and ren- derihg 1t impossible for road shock to defect the front wheels from the line in which the car is travel ing. A rigid king pin mounting .on a short dead axle" extension of the frame holds the front wheels in unvarying relation to the chassis. Each front wheel employs an extremely resilient dual coil spring and twoway hydraulic shock absorbers, all enclosed and sealed in massive oil-filled housing. In steering, the wheel Knee" and spring housing all swivel as unit on, the king pin.
 This suspension, eliminating the conventional method of attaching the front axle to the frame through leaf springs which had to be given considerably greater strength than the rear springs to prevent steer ing defiection by road shock, now permits use of equally ''soft" springs, front and rear. As re- suit the car rises and falls gently over road obstacles without shock or pitching. An automatic stabi- lzer reduces body sway.
 An the advantage of rigid front wheel mounting, of course, is re- hected also in Pontiac's new steer Ing ease. The car speeds through heavy gravel in a straight, true line, the driver reaction being that Df steering on rails.
 Big, powerful Bendix brakes, simple in design and certain in operation, which multiply pedal pressure many fold, afford addi- tional driving safety. Even with the brake shaft sawed completely in two-the rigorous French gov ernment test-the car still can be braked on all four wheels by using the emergency hand lever and the foot pedal. The emergency, in- cfdentally. is not merely 8 rear wheel parking brake; it operates on all four wheels and provides

braking power beyond that of the f foot pedal.
 Pontiac engineers assert that the improved 1894 straight eight motor is even more smooth than it's fam ous predecessor in the 1893 Pon- tiac. They claim that it is match ed in smoothness by only one en- zine in the entire American auto- mobile industry, the motor of a car in the extremely high price field.
 Due to the excess strength built into the motor and the precise bal ancing of all moving parts, the road speed of the car can be advanced in one-mile stages throughout its entire speed range without the slightest trace of vibration. A larger Harmonic balancer guards the big, Fl pound crankshaft a. gainst torsional vibration. The heavy cylinder block, with deep, rigid crankcase, short stroke and main bearings supported by five solid webs cast into the block, pro- vide other salient factors which contribute toward the smoothnesy of the motor. Pontiac does it's job easily, as evidenced by the fact that only 55 per cent of the avail able motor power is required at a road speed of 65 miles per hour.
 Pontiac's compression has been raised to new ratio of 6.2 to 1. A new type of cylinder head carry ing cooling bosses above all valves permits the use of regular grades of fuel under this high compres sion.
 An ample cooling system which provides forced flow of 1,200 gall ons of water per hour at road sped of 25 miles an hour assures a cool-running motor. Fountain cooling" of the valves is achieved

ToTo THE 1884 AUTO SHOW! See the pass V ing of an old tradition .. see the begin ming of new one. See the beginning of the Aerodynamic Age on Wheels!
 There are three principal reasons why every one is talking about the AIRFLOW De Soto. First .. its appearance. Second it's "Floating Ride." Third .. its new method of construction. All three are of vital im- portance to every motorist.
 Appearance. It has the same thrilling lines as the fastest modern ships and planes. It literally bores hole through the air. And once you've seen it, you'll decide it makes conven- tional cars look old-fashioned and outmoded.

 The feminine sex has had the Hast word" in the designing of the 1894 motor car.
 For this year, more than ever before, I believe that motor car manufacturers have taken the "women's angle" into more serious consideration in designing new au- tomobiles, not only from a style, but from a mechanical standpoint, too.
 The modern American woman has not only become potent fac tor in the buying of motor cars she has become a very strong in fluence in their making.
 It is true enough that not many automobile factories employ Wo- men on their staffs, but Plymouth, for instance has questioned thou sands of women about their auto motive tastes-and our 1884 cars have ben built so that they have a definite appeal to Miss and Mrs America.
 For the automobile engineer and designer knows that if his car pleases the woman-it will most times please the man, too.
 Women like style. They want an automobile that's smart. It must have sleek body lines. It must ap- peal to her sense of beauty. And most times her husband will con- cur in her opinions as to what that style ought to be.
 Women have weather eye for interior appointments. Hardware. Upholstery. The design of the in- strument panel. If the lady of the house looks over the prospective
