LITTLE CHAIRS

Small chairs are easily fashioned from soap boxes. One box, a straight piece of wood for the back, coat of bright paint, is the simplest for mula. This may be elaborated upon to the extent of dads time and skill. See what you can do with your hands this year-your hands, little wood and inexpensive paint. It will be a happy Christmas, for our hands can put love and the Christmas spirit in to gifts so much more easily than they can be instilled into an expens- i've unworked-upon present.

SANTA NEEDED
 BY CR0WN-UPS

If there were no God it would be necessary to invent him. said a well-known writer. There is no Santa Claus in our grown-up world, but we have found we needed him as one of the mast beloved characters in the world of childhood, which is peopled with legends of the child's own making. The enchanting be- lief in Santa and his reindeer, his paunch and his pack filled with toys will never hurt a child. The cynical grown-ups, who have too completely lost their belief in him and his kind, need your help.

CHRISTMAS
 BREAKFAST

Within recent years open house at breakfast Christmas morning has been growing more and more popu- lar. It all started when friends and relatives dropped in to bring gifts and found the late-rising members of the family still at table. Mother made another pot of coffee, urged the visitors to join the family, and another of the most pleasant social customs was born. Nowadays the perfect hostess prepares for an in determinate number at the holiday breakfast.

new CMAC PLAN
FOR FINANCING
DRAWS PUBLIC
Purchaser Can Budget Buy
ina of Car on 6 Per Cent
Rate, Says Official.

The immediate results of the re-
duction in cost and the Simplifica-
ton of the procedure of financing
the 1886 line of General Motors cars
announced recently by the General
Motors Acceptance Corp, with the
GMAC 6 per cent plan, has created
unusual interest upon the part of
the public, and throughout the au
tomobne industry, it was learned
today.
"While we were most happy to get
the cost down as low as 6 per cent
c. the contract balance on new car
purchases" J. j. Schumann Jr.,
president of General Motors Accept
ance Corp, said in letter to L. G..
Pomeroy, Indiana division manager
for GMAC, "the plan would have
been great step forward by vir-
tue of its simplicity alone, even if
we had not been able to make a
substantial reduction in the cost.
Hopes Others Will Follow
1--WE are hopeful that other fin
ance companies will adopt simplified
low cost plans in the near future,
for we feel it would be construc-
tive move and one which should
encourage buying.
I'VE firmly believe that people
over the country now want to buy
just as keenly as merchants want to
sell. The new GMAC per cent
plan is designed to make it easy for
the purchaser and the dealer to get
together in complete confidence, a
most essential factor in sound credit
sales. Reactions already received
from the public and General Motors
dealers have confirmed our belief
that the public has a real interest in
simplifed financing plan, which
brings mutual confidence into de-
ferred payment transactions.
Can. Budget Purchase
1.-THE simplicity of the G. M. A. C.
plan makes it possible for the pur-
chaser, without exposing himself to
Safes oOllClCdCloIl, 10 CONSIDER care
fully before he buys, just how he
will budget his income to accommo-
date the purchase. This is one of
the fundamental factors in sound
credit transactions.
Insofar as the G. M. A. G. plan
is concerned, there has never been
any mystery about the cost of
financing. 1t has always been in the
open. The advantage of the new
plan, however, is that by use of a
simple multiplier the purchaser can
figure for himself"

ering had as guests senior officials
of the Nash company and signifi-

81 AUTO SHOWS
CREATE PROBLEM
Plymouth Sends Out II
Sets for Public
Display.

Staging the automobile shows
throughout the nation this fall is
an industry in itself, rivaling big
time circuses in the efficient han
ding Of display equipment.
The automobile industry is hold
ing shows in 81 major cities during
November and December, and all of
these shows are featuring special
exhibits in addition to full lines of
display cars.
AS many of the shows are in
progress at the same time, the in
dustry had to provide duplicate ex-
hibits to cover all of the exposi-
tons. For example, one manufac-
turer, the Plymouth Motor Corp,
has sent out eleven complete 'show
sets" and is maintaining them on
the road for the next two months
A modern oracle, operated by
electricity, tops the list of ingenious
Plymouth show exhibits. Specta-
tors ask the oracle questions about
the Plymouth car by pressing but
tons on a keyboard. The answers
flash back in lights on dial.
Other exhibits include a giant
hydraulic brake assembly, magni-
fed many times actual size; chas-
sis showing the new mechanical
features; floating power exhibit
aid floating ride display.
The show sets" are shipped from
city to city on prearranged sched-
ules. They are packed in special
cars, which are attached to fast
passenger trains. Overnight the dis
plays are dismantled in some cities
and reassembled in others.
All of this movement on the road
takes planning-and manpoWer. A
central headquarters in Detroit SUI
pervises the routing, while a crew
of workers travels with each 'show
set"
The Plymouth lecturers travelling
with the show displays this fall
were selected from leading engi-
neering schools. They attended spe-
cial training courses and passed

AUBURN SALES
TO DISTRIBUTE
CORD IN CITY
W. R. Smith Appointed as
Manager for New
Company.

Announcement was made Satur-
day by the Auburn Automobile Co.
of the appointment Of the Auburn
Automobile Sales Corp, 1921 N.
Meridian-st, as distributor for
Auburn-Cord for this territory.
w. r. Smith, who has been asso-
ciated in the automobile business in
Indianapolis for many years has
been appointed manager Of the new
company. H. Montgomery, who has
been identified here with Auburn for
several years will be in charge of
the wholesale department. Clyde
La Porte, who recently returned
from the Auburn factory where he
took special instruction in the serv-
icing OF Auburn and Cord cars, has
been named service manager.
Complete Servicing
The new company will have COM
plete equipment for servicing Cord
Front-Drive and Auburn cars, will
carry full line Of parts and &C
cessories, and of course, a complete
line of Cord and Auburn Straight
Eight and Super charged siX-cylin-
der models, Mr.. Smith asserted.
Mechanically, the new Cord is the
result of nearly 10 years Of expert
mentation and development of the
front-drive principle by Auburn en-
gineers. Of chief Importance is the
unit power and driving plant. Di-
rectly ahead of this short ~" type
engine is the differential and trans
mission, cast en- bloc. Thus the en-
tire power plant is a single motive
unit, closely coupled and with long
drive shaft eliminated. The result
is more effective delivery Of power,
less vibration and the elimination
of several hundred pounds of I'M
sprung weight.
The universal joints used on the
shafts that deliver power direct to
the front wheels are Of the constant
velocity type.
New Iycoming Engine
The new Lycoming 'V" Eight
engine has been developed expressly
for the Cord Unusually compact,
this power plant develops 125 h. p.
at $500 r. p. m.
The four-speed transmission is
entirely new Gears are of the con-
slant mesh helical-cut type, quiet
in all four forward speeds.
Gear shifting is by remote con-
troll. The ratio selecting unit is on
the steering wheel column directly
below the wheel rim. To shift from
one gear to another, all the driver
has to do is to select desired ratio
and press down the clutch pedal.
For the first time a truly custom
type automobile has been made
available to the public as a produc-
ton car. This is evident in the in
terror treatment of the body. The
entire interior is carried out in
two-color motif. The door window
knobs, control buttons, upholstery
and ceiling panel piping, etc, are
finished in the same color as the eX-
terror of the car.
