ROSEBURG NEWS-REVIEW. WEDNESDAY. APRIL 29, 1925. FIVE A very fine car at a very low price STUDEBAKER aNgw Standard Six Qoach $1295 . o. b. factory ' with full-size balloon tires STUDEBAKER has $60,000,000 invested in plants in which Studebaker cars are manufactured complete, including all bodies, both open and closed. No other large automobile manu facturer that we know of makes all of his own bodies. This means that Studebaker saves the profit of outside parts makers and body-builders. Thus the price of this new coach is not bur dened by an extra profit. At $1295 it represents a value no otter automobile manufacturer can equal. And no other manufacturer can offer a coach of such fine quality at the price. For every coach that Studebaker builds carries with it traditions of fine craftsmanship that have existed in Studebaker plants since 1852. Compare this coach with other cars which sell at much higher prices. This will prove that Studebaker values are unequaled. W. A. BURR & SON IS HELD M "Very few gasoline user real tee the time-and energy used by the larger oil companies in plac ing 'quality' first in their pro ducts." states K. G. liowman, manager of (Ion oral iVtroleum Corpurutlon in Oregon. "In the case of General gasoline, which is becoming ho popular in this terri tory, we worked for years to place the quality in our product, and now nothing Is left undone to in sure that this 'b a live quality Is maintained. "We know for a certainty," he states, "that the quality of Gen eral received in the lust shipment to the Portland distributing mu tton was the same as that re ceived in the firm, several months ago. Nor do we use any guess work in proving the quality of our gasoline, but keep a complete record by means of a scries of distillation tests. The?e tests are made not only during the rwfin ning process, but before shipment and also during storage. "As an example, every ship ment of General gasoline In tested before it Is pumped aboard the tanker, and again after reaching our Portland storage station. Still another test is made of each lot before It goes to the principal dis tributing stations. The refining process of General gasoline is ac curate and dependable, so much go, that the tests have shown there is not the slightest varia tion between our first shipment to Portland and the last. It is because of this unusual refining process that our product is suf ficiently dependable to allow us to tell the motorist confidvntly to 'fill up and let the engine decide.' "A good gasoline requires many peculiar qualities it should start easily, so It is neeeesary for it to have sufficient of the very light factors In it to vaporize "easily and Ignite quickly in a cold mo- I tor. Jt needs eo have an even range of boiling points, fo that it will ignite and burn evenly and give a steady power push. He cause the heavier factors in the gasolin'e contain the greater num ber of heat units, end are there fore the greatest power factor, Mt should have as high an end point as is pructlcal. "After years of careful Investi gation and experimenting the General Petroleum Corporation has been able to place on the market a gasoline which has the necessary requirements. The mo torist is now able to secure a dol- of the Purchase Certificate. When the suin of l lit payments plus the six per cent interest earned reaches one-third of the retull price, the tar is delivered. The balance may be met wither out r.glu or ou a deferred payment plan. "Another attractive feature Is a provision that a Certificate holder who already owns a car gains a further credit toward his new au tomobile of six per cent of such amounts as he may spend with the dealer for service, repairs or accessories on his old machine. "The Certificate savings ure amply safeguarded. They are banked in separate trustee's ac count in a local bank. Over 2,000 of these accounts are established In different banks In the United Statt'S. In addition all money paid in on a Chevrolet Purchase Certificate is insured against all loss by a strong and well known Insurance company." inter business on closed cars. ''Before the Buick factory, built a coach they took into considera tion the features necessary for ireal driving and riding comfort. The coach as.llulck builds it, con tinued Baker, "is a real closed car. The body is large and three per sons can be comfortably seated in the rear seat. The doors are wide, which allows the passengers to get In and out of the car without dis turbing the front seat occupant This is a bis advantage, and has been an important factor in the Bale of Buick coaches. The wide windows can easily be opened while touring through the warmer sections of the country, giving to the owner an open car with closed car protection. If a sudden wind or dust comes up the windows can be quickly closed. "We can see a bright future, for the coach because of Its ad vantages, and can readily see why the motoring public has accepted this type of car for all year around use." -pi The Royal Coup IiETKOlT. Mich., A a delivery unit to meet requirement, for equipment lighter than that of the ' ton truck, the Ford .Motor Com pany has just added a pick-up body to lta commercial car line. The new body Is designed for use on the Ford runabout, taking the place of the rear deck, and is well adapted to all kinds of llKht hauling and quicx delivery. The runabout seat affords comfortable rliliuii for the driver and there Is ample room for another passenger. Full protection against inclement weather Is provided by the top and side curtains.

' There were predictions during the winter that the great swing to closed cars would level out this oldtinie fea ture of the business. But good as winter buslneg was, our April sales are going at a rate just twice as fast," says Koy Catching, local Hudson-Essex dealer. "For example, the fore part of April has a volume of new Hudson Essex cars sold and registered about ninety-six per cent of them being coaches which is double our average volume for the year. This is despite the fact that our winter business was consistently good. 'It all goes to show that there Is something in tho atr of spring that wakes up a man's motoring urge. Men who have been think ing of buying cars suddenly put their money In their pocket and get ready to buy. That is the flame urge which wakes up tho clothing and sporting goods mar ket, and makes women look about for new bonnets and wraps. 'We are fortunate that this season of great demand Is being met by an unprecedented produc tion of cars at the Hudson-Essex plant. The factory Is now working 24 hours a day to keep up with the d'-mand for prompt deliveries.

"The solid comfort that is being 'derived by owners driving coach models is a real indication that . there will be a continued sales in- crease for this type of car during 'the summer months," says O. C. : linker, of the Motor Garage and lo cal lluick dealer. j "People who prior to the intro- ductlon of the coach were owners i of open models, are now driving in- closed cars.

Consequently Chrysler popularity continues unabated. You are invited to study these results at first hand. First you will observe that the tre mendous power is vibrationless at all speeds. It represents a step for. ward in motor smoothness and efficiency as important as the over, lapping power stroke of the six in contrast to the old twsvcylinder opposed engine. You will also experience new riding qualities. A new type of spring mounting, with rear springs mounted close to the hubs and parallel to the wheels, makes it possible to drive the Chrysler around turns at 50miles an hour. Side-sway and road-weaving are eliminated. All these qualities, as well as many other features that distinguish the Chrysler Six from all other cars, are properly appreciated only when you ride in the car. For that reason we are always eager to demonstrate Chrysler results. A telephone call is all that is necessary. The TrHn, Cy Th Phaeton . . Tfw RoadetaT .
