E TESTSflRESEVERE Probably no more thorough test Is ever given to a motor car than that Imposed by the various cities throughout the I'nil-.i States for cars to he used In their fire and police departments. Purchases of cars for these purposes are only made after comparative tests that are calculated to bring out the best or the worst In a motor, In the opinion of V. V. Michael, Chrysler and Maxwell distributor In Kose bii rg. According to word received bv Michael fmm the Chrysler factory In Detroit,, Chrysler cars are be ing adopted very generally through out the country for use by the va rious imiiiicip.litie in fire and no lle work. New York City recent ly purchased a number of Chrys lers for use by its fire battalion chief-, acconlinc to this lufoma tion. and such cities as Indianapolis. Detroit. St. Louis, Portland, Kansas City, Hnltfmore, Newark, Minne apolis. Wilmington and Berkeley have purchased Chrysler cars after very exhaustive tests. "In making selections of motor cars for fire and police work, the safety factor Is the prime con sideralion," said Ml ha I. ' The h draulie four wheel brakes, which are used on the Chrysler, give the driver constant control of the car at any speed. The Chryslers low hung body and pa rail- I spring sus pension allow the car to he dtiv. n at hUh Rpe'-d' wit hout side s wa and enable the enr to be driven h round corners at high speed iri perfect safety. Immediate aicel cralloti and ability to attain anil hold ri I mIi sp-'ctl are, of course, es setitinl In cars for use of this kind nnd the ('hosier's ability slont. then lines need not W elaborate 1 upon. "lu the state of California there are a larre number of state nuli way police driving Chrysler cars In the uorthern part of the state there Is a one armed traffic o: t i cer who drives a Chrysler, s- speeders who have tried conch, shms with this ofifeer have ln,. tiably decided thiit there are b- r ter places to speed than over Cir liirJiwaya that be patiols." Motor Company. It is a notable fact that the buyer was much quicker to ap preciate the advantage of 4-wheel brakes than the average manu facturer. It was only after the buyer began to demand this great improvement and to refuse to buy an automobile unless It had them, that most manufacturers reluc bdiuly put them on. "Lven now it is a difficult and an expensive process some of them are going through, in trying to sell cars with brakes whicu are simply 'tagged ou' instead of built into the very design and sinew of the car. "itfekeubacker body designers from the first could not see how buyers would long be satisfied with a 5 -passenger closed car which had only two doors, and which required the lilting of one seat lor ingress and egress. "So we designed a model which because of Its difference in type and structure we named "Coacn brougham". "This has four full size doors and no tilting seats. "We exhibited this model at the New York. Show and, whereas we "expected it would need a let of pressure behind it to put it over, to our delight it went like wildfire. "Never in my experience have I seen so many telegrams pour in to a factory in any one day, as we received every day last week ail begging for immediate deliv eries. "If the demand is Jike this In April, wtiat will it be in May? "The average automobile owner spends more hours In the corn puny of his car than he spends, waking hours, in his home, or with his family. "It is more closely associated with him in business life and periods of recreation than any other thing be possesses. It also represents a large investment and quite au important item of daily expense, while it is unquestion ably the greatest fuctor in the conservation of time and increase of his own efficiency. "Being a citizeu of standing in his community, and his lamily possessing a certain social status, he s naturally interested In the matter of style also. So he reads everything he can find, and be discusses automobiles with every one he knows. "Perhaps sometime we may miss a trick aud find ourselves trailing but so far Kickenbacker fcos always managed to lead; and With orders pouring in as they are how, It is a mighty comfortable feeling as well as an added re ward for engineering enterprise to know that our product appeals to buyers who are, on the aver age, more alert and progressive than automobile makers."

Answer One reason is the strik- ing appearance of this famous motor car. Then comes Buick dependability. A woman knows , when she starts out with her Buick that she will "get there and back." Other reasons are tlic com fort in driving a Buick die velvet clutch action, easy steering; then the power and quiet ness of Buick's Valve-in-Head engine and tha safety of Buick mechanical four-wheel brakes.
