IN GET-AWAY TEST rcirt Autumn la the Ideal driving sea on of the year. The roada are bard, the weather b:-isk and plea sant, and the country-aide In It moat attractive dreaa . That fact la undoubtedly behind the active demand fur motor ear, according to Hoy Catching, Hudson Essex dealer. He estimates that even as many families are now tak ing week-end rides than In the us ual vacation days of summer. " "This of coarse directs attention to the especial advantages of en closed cars," be said, "For the au tumn ride an enclosed car la al most a necessity. It can be opened ! during the warmer hours of the j day so that all the boneNts of a f.-eah breeie are obtained. Then when the cooler hour come along. It can be closed to give aa com plete protection as is desred. "In my opinion, Hudson-Essex are still the recognized closed car I apeclallst of the industry. No otb- er concern builds so high a per centage of closed cava, no other has so energetically studied and de veloped the closed car demand, and no other has bad the experience of building a third of a million coaches. The word coach, indeed is closely allied with Hudson-Kssex. Broughams and sedans are other popular Hudson enclosed cars. "Because of the volume of pro duction. Hudson-Essex closed cars are actually sold at leas than open car prices on many other makes, which Is unique in automobile In-, duatry. We know of no parallel. "The coach has contributed mightily to Hudson-Essex success In the paat few years, and yet it Is nether the coach alone nor the lowered Hudson-Essex prices which have brought about this ever expanding growth. "Neither price alone nor any one model could have accounted for EFFECTIVE OCT. 1 Announcement li made by Dodge i Brother, Inc., that they have adopt ed a new plan for financing " bale of Dodge Hrother Motor: car and Graham Brother truck, which Is to he known a Dodge1 Brother credit purchase plan and which facilities are now being of feral by . Commercial Investment Trust Incorporated and it affiliat ed companies to all Dodge Brothers dealer. It 1 expected that It will be generally adopted without delay by Dodge Brothers, Inc., dealer, who are now being Instructed In It de tail by Dodge Brothers, Inc., and Commercial Investment Trust rep resenlatlves. "All details will be available through dealers to anyone Interested In the purchase of a Dodge Brothers motor car or a Graham Brother truck after the new plan becomes effective, Oc tober 1," It was said at Detroit. A letter by Prewident F. J. Hayne to all Dodge Brothers deal ers included the following: "Our pulley having always been that the lowest possible cost should prevail to the public, (be Dodge Brother credit purchase plan, should, because of its kw rate, appeal to all buyers of Dodge Brothers motor cars desiring credit. "The plan makes it absolutely unnecessary for a purchaser of a Dodge Brother motor car desiring credit to pay more than the rates quoted." RtudeDaker models. builds do yearly The fleetness of a "human grey hound recently failed to beat an automobile in a 100-yard dash from a standing start at the Los An geles coliseum. A half-dote n four-cylinder cars of different makes had been given acceleration tests In 100-yard daahe. The best time was made by a Chevrolet. Each car ran eight sprints over the distance and the results were averaged. The average time made by the Chevro let was 10.73 seconds. The other averages were: 11.13 seconds; 11.19 seconds; 11.28 sec onds; 11.68 seconds and 12.54 sec onds. The cars which ran second and third were considerably higher in price than the Chevrolet Alter the tests, the question arose as to the relative "pick-up" of the automobile and the human sprinter. A contest was arranged In the Coliseum between a Chevro let and Keith Lloyd, cousin of Har old Lloyd. Keith Lloyd is the champion sprinter of the Univer sity of Southern California. The Chevrolet was driven by Dick Champion, former Bucknell Univer sity track star. The stop watch was held by Dean Cromwell, Lloyd's coach. At the starting gun Lloyd leap ed ahead of the car. He was in full stride before Champion bad chang ed to second gear. The rapidly ac celerating car roared after him. however, and caught him at thei tape. Coach Cromwell clocked car and sprinter In a dead heat of 10.3 seconds. On comparative figures, had Lloyd sprinted against any of the other five cars he would have won without extending himself. The speed of the Chevrolet car at the flutsh was 32 miles per hour.

ESSEX, WORLD'S LARGEST SELLING "SIXES" I) CZOC J" ESSEX "SIX" COACH naHaa Name ack Dp A Good Rarely in manufacturing history has a name entrenched itself so firmly in the confidence of the entire world as the name Dodge Brothers. Everywhere and to everyone this name means but one thing: a product built honestly of the best available materi als and sold at a just price.' ' Behind this product, this price and this enviable reputation lie certain impressive and fundamental facts. So important is a knowledge of these facts to the motor car buyer that Dodge Brothers, Inc., have determined to publish them, from time to time, until every newspaper reader in America may be presumed to have read them: Dodge Brothers, during the past eleven years, have built and sold more than one million four hundred thousand motor cars and more than 90 of these cars are still in service. This record requires no com ment It stands impressively alone in motor car history. It has never been Dodge' Bro-' thers policy to build yearly models. When an improve ment, that is really an im provement, is discovered, it is made at once. Their slogan, "Constantly Improved But No Yearly Models" is familiar the world over. Dodge Brothers build one chas sis and only one. This policy materially lowers manufactur ing cost It also enables Dodge Brothers engineers to concen- trato their entire time and thought on the betterment of this cno type. Dodge Brothers have never had ar. "off year" or cn "off car." This is because they have never used the public as a test ing, ground fcr "new models" cr lowered the quality of their product in the slightest degree. Every change has been an im provement on tfie original design. Dodge Brothers pioneered in building the first all-steel open car and the first all-steel closed ar. These epochal develop ments have' saved Dodge Brothers owners many millions of dollars by materially prolong ing motor car life and by effect ing marked economies in man ufacture. This construction has also reduced incalculably the danger from accident and fire.' Dodge Brothers sell directly through their dealers to the purchaser. There are no sec tional distributing agencies to increase the cost of distribution and the cost of the car. Dodge Brothers have never given so-called "free service." The car is sold at a fair and honest price. Nothing is added to this original purchase price to pay for service that the owner may never need.' Dodge Brothers Dealers were pioneers in unanimously adopting the flat rate service system. By this system, the owner knows in advance what any service job will cost There are no unpleasant surprises in his bills ' The sturdiness and long life of Dodge Brothers Motor Car is reflected in its resale value. Comparatively few Dodge Brothers Motor Cars are ad vertised in the resale columns of . the newspapers. The values they bring testify unanswerably to their goodness and the pub lic's belief in their goodness. The time has passed when fransient novelties Can lead a thoughtful buyer to overlook the great essentials of motor car worth. A few of trese essentials, outlined above, go far to explain why Dodge Brothers name is accepted, the world over, as the hall mark of dollar -for -dollar value. DodeeB roth e-rs. In c. D&TROIT
