Rickenbacker Six Captures
Most Coveted Record
San Francisco to Los Angeles 439 Miles in
8 Hours 57 Minutes
Thi amazing car, the new Rickenbacker Six
with "Cannon Ball Baker" at the wheel, has
now added to Ita many conquests, the most
hotly contested and most coveted road
record on the entire continent.
A roster of those who, from time to time,'
have clipped a few minutes or even seconds
time between these points, reads like a
volume of "Who's Who among Speed Mer
chants, and includes almost every make of
car which has any pretensions to power, I
speed or road-ability.
Space forbids printing any but a few of the
more recent records.-
In 1916, Buick lowered the former, and set a
new mark of 10 hours, 47 minutes.
Cadillac went after that and did it in 9 hours, ,
30 minutes.
In 1920 Peerless shaved off 10 minutes set '
the mark at 9 hours, 20 minutes.
1921 Studebaker lowered that by 4 minutes,1
10 seconds 9 hours, 15 minutes, 50 seconds.
That record like others that have recently
fallen before the on-rush of this invincible
Rickenbaker Six stood for several years.
And now, Rickenbacker clips off 18 full
minutes.
439 miles 8 hours, 57 minutes total elapsed
time.
And this by a car that is a standard stock
model in every regard save for a higher gear
ratio 4'4 to 1.
At times, on straightaways, Baker drove 80
miles an hour.
He made the amazing average of nearly
fifty miles per hour for the entire distance
(49.05 to be exact).
We believe this record will stand for a long
time to come.
Any car that essays to lower it by a fraction
must possess several features, must be a
perfectly balanced combination of all those
qualities that make up a perfect motor car.
Power-plus ; Speed j Flexibility j Matchless
acceleration! Precision steering abso
lutely responsive and true to the wheel;
Axles that will stand any strain or shock;
and finally, 4-wheel brakes.
Those specifications for a world beater spell
"Rickenbacker."
You are invited to ride in a Rickenbacker
Six exactly like the one in which "Cannon
Ball Baker" made that great drive.

Will Serve You Well
There is no need to argue the merits of the Fordson
Tractor with the Farmer ... he knows ... here is a
statement of facts:
"We also have 120 acres of land in trees, a
veritable forest. There is always trees falling
down, or trees that die and have to be re
moved. Before we got the Fordson, we were up againat
it, as to what to do with these trees, as well
as with the trees that have to be dug up where
we are building roads or making other im
provements. Now things are different and we
owe it all to the Fordson."
The above is only one of the many statements of facts
we are continually receiving from owners of Fordson
Tractors, but to further convince you of the superiority
of this wonderful tractor we are giving you four of
many reasons why you should own the Fordson.
No. 1 The Fordson Tractor Costs less for upkeep than
any other tractor made.
No. 2 The Fordson Tractor is built to meet the require
ments of the farmer at a price the farmer is
willing to pay.
No. 3 The Fordson Tractor is in big demand for road
work when not in use on your farm.
No. 4 The Fordson Tractor outclasses all competition
and will serye you well.

Own Your Own Fordson Tractor

STORK PRESIDES
After the birth of a baby comes
the christening But In Yuma,
Ariz., they do 'things differently.
The Johnson Ambulance Company
of that city put a new Buick "4U"
coach, converted Into an ambu
lance. Into service and the arrival
of a baby was Its christening;.
The stork presided at the coach
christening when Just after Frank
Wellena, now with F. K. Sapgul
nettl's Uulck agency in Yuma, de
livered a new couch to O. C. John
son, a hurry-up pall came from an
eastbound train.
It seems that the stork had been
flying low and following a South
ern Pacific train and was just get
ting ready to swoop down when
the train rolled into Yuma.
The ambulance-ized Buick coach
made a swift trip, starting with
Mrs. E. O. Grey to the hospital,
and en route a nice ten-pound baby
girl was born.
