NATIONAL VELVET - Enid
Bagnold. This is the story Of a lit.
tie girl, Velvet Brown, whose pas
sion in life was horses. And so,
when she won notorious and un-
wanted horse in village lottery,
Velvet began to dream. And, since
the breathless imagination of
youth sees no obstacles as insuper-
able, Velvet's thoughts turned to
the greatest race in the world
The Grand National.
There Is Mi Taylor, who had how
cred around the racing world till
he knew everything about it, except
the horses back. And there is the
horse-part carthorse, part Arab.
Because he preferred sociable vii
lage life to lonely fields, he learned
to jump fences. When Velvet took
him on, he looked like a newly
painted rocking horse" When he
appeared at Aintree, people looked
at him and hooted.
National Velvet is a fine spirited
story. Charmingly written, it will
live for its pure enchantment, ex-
citement and enjoyment.

OFFERED BY
CHRYSLER

Six models comprise the Chry-
aler line for 1885. introduced to
the public at the automobile
shows.
Four of the 1885 models are an
improved and refined version OF
the Airflow, which made its ap-
pearance in January, 1884, and at
tanned such popularity that in
spite of the fact that full produc.
ton was not accomplished until
April, some $4,000 were placed in
the hands Of owners.
The other two cars, designated
as the Airstream line, are six
and an eight which replace the
conventional cars formerly oullt
by Chrysler. AS these cars are in
A lower priced field than the Air
flow, they do not embody all OF
the features of that line, some Of
which involve construction too ex-
pensive to be included. They do,
however, bear close family re-
semblance to the Airflow, and
they have been given the advan-
tage of many Of the things that
ChrySler has learned in a years
experience with the revolutionary
design that came out a year ago.
Appearance Changed
There has been a change in the
appearance of the Airflow brought
about by a new and pleasing
treatment of the front end, af'
fecting hood, radiator. headlights
and lowers. Instead of the hood
having uniform width from cowl
to front as in the 1884 cars, a
new curved center section, ter
minating in a pointed radiator
has been adopted. This gives the
car an appearance Of greater
length.

gine has a bore Of 314 inches and
