(By E. T. StronK. General Sales
Manaxer Uulck Motor Company)
It will be interesting to know
that In spite of the talk ot n gen
eral depression of business and es
pecially the sale of automobiles,
that those companies that have be
come established over a period of
years have not been affected to
the extent that one might suppose.
The facts of theease are that
those companies that are the rec
ognized leaders have enjoyed an
increase in business during the
past year, as evidenced by the de
liveries of Uulck cars into the
bunds of owners during the year
1924. compared with deliveries
during the two previous years. For
instance, from July 1st, to Decem
ber 31st. 1922. there were over
60.000 new Uulck automobiles dellv
ered to owners. During the cor
responding period of 1923 there
were over "5,000 new Bulck cars
I delivered to owners, and during
the same period In 1924 the deliv
eries of new Uulck automobiles to
owners numbered over sj.uov.
These figures show a steady In
crease in Uuick business each
year, and accounts for the Duick
Motor company continuing for the
seventh consecutive year to be
awarded first choice of space at
the National Automobile shows
held at New York and Chicago,
and also shows a healthy growth
of business which could not help
but keep Bulck in its envious posi
tion of the leader In the industry.
These facts may seem surpris
ing, and they are, but when one
considers the fact that Bulck has
been a popular car for more than
twenty years and is recognired as
product that represents tne lat
est advancement In body design
and mechanical construction It
will be readily realised that the
number of Buicks sold and in use
Bhould be in excess of any other.
CHRYSLER CARS
FORGE TO FRONT
Two of every three Essex buyers
come to it frqm those who form
erly owned cars bought chiefly
for their low first price.
Just as the Coach body and
Coach name have been exten
sively copied, even by costliest
cars, so must future mechanical
design seek to approximate the
results Essex gives.
But the patents which make the
Super-Six the most enduring-,
smoothest motor and give it all
advantages, also prevent any
from copying its chassis.
Surely you cannot be satisfied
with less than Essex offers. Its
cost is but little more than cars
of the ldwest price. v

It will be recalled that many
new makes of cars huve been pro
duced, placed on the market after
a preliminary advertising cam
paign, flourished for a while and
then passed out of existence, said
J. W. Michael, local Chrysler and
Maxwell dealer. At the recent
New York National Auto Show it
was noticed that some 20 per cent
fewer manufacturers displayed
cars this year than in 1924. Suiue
of these manufacturers who did
not display have finished a year of
the keenest competition In motor
car history, and under the strain
of this competition found it neces
sary to cease operations.
A few manufacturers developed
new cars and launched them on
the market, but the road for the
newcomers has been extremely
ships, the steamers Oneida and
Onondaga. These steamers "were
put Into this service on a rattier
experimental basis." said Mr.
Kord s announcement, "and nave
proven the feasibility of extend
ing our own shipping service to
Kurope. '
rough. A notable exception to
this, however, is the Chrysler car,
wiilch It will be remembered was
shown for the first time at the
New York show one year ago. In
'hat single year Chrysler, accord
ing to figures recently released by
the Chrysler factory, actually pro-1
uuced and sold more automobiles
In Its first year than has any oth
er manufacturer in the history of
the self-propelled vehicle. i
Walter P. Chrysler's history
reads almost like a romance. Be
ginning his business career as an
engine wiper in a small town in
Kansas, Chrysler rose to the presi
dency of one of the world's largest
locomotive factories within a few
years. Ills genius as a production
nian and designer attracted the at
tention of the automobile manu
facturers, and In 1911 he took the
position of production manager of
one of the largest General Motors
concerns. At the time he left this
organization he was executive
vice-president of ail General Mo
tors companies. Going to Maxwell
In 1921, his work with that com
pany la a matter of history.
A man with this brilliant record,
of course, attracted instant atten
tion and confidence when the car
bearing his name was first an.
nounced. Chrysler announced cer
tain ideas of design which were
termed almost radical, but Inter
est in the product was at fever
heat when his car was first plac
ed on the market. That this in
terest has developed Into a heav
ier demand than present factory
facilities can accommodate is
borne out by the figures of the
first year's business.

The new Chevrolet coach Is now
on display at the show room of the
ed Marsh Motor Company Chevro
let dealers In RoseburR.
Like the other models in the
new Chevrolet Une, It is a radical
departure from the conventional In
small-car construction.
The sturdy Chevrolet motor has
been refined T yinclosin the over
head valves and rocker arms to
protect them from grease and dirt
and muffle the sound of valve tap
pels. Strong, lightweight cast iron
pistons with two step-cut piston
rings and one special master ring
permit more thorough cylinder
wall lubrication.
The crankshaft is four pounds
heavier and is mounted on three
main beurings and a larger and
longer center main bearing.' The
rflywheel Is completely inclosed
and the Hemy starting motor id
mounted directly in the flywheel
housing with all the moving parts
completely inclosed. The Hendix
drive Is fully supported at - the
driving end, which sets it rigidly
and insures proper alignment with
the teeth of the flywheel.
The new Chevrolet motor Is de
clared to be by far the most pow
erful, economical and smoothest
motor ever built for a car in the
Chevrolet price class. '
All models have Duco finish as
standard and in the closed models
bodies are built by Fisher. Stand
ard equipment on all closed mod
els including one-piece VV-type
windshield with automatic wind- j
shield wiper and other refine
ments. The color scheme of the new
coach, which Is now on display, is 1
a dark blue Duco for the body, j
with upper panels and feeders in I
black. This contrasting color j
scheme makes the Chevrolet
coach one of the most attractive
small cars that has ever been
shown In Southern Oregon.

More motorists every day come to the conclusion
that for year 'round utility there is no more
practical or convenient car than a Ford.
The Fordor Sedan is roomy, comfortable, and
attractive in appearance inside and out '
In city traffic it handles and parks so easily that
thousands drive it who could readily aOord
costlier cars.
On country roads it comes through where heavier
cars frequently cannot Such qualities as these
have brought the Ford its well-deeerved reputa
