We suggest that you look to both,

When Better Automobile! Are, Built. Buick Will Build Them
Study the newer lines of the Jewett Coach.
Notice its gracefully rounded back its smart
double belt moulding the distinctive coloring
in its permanent lacquer finish. A more beau
tiful Coach doesn't exist!
It's the greatest Jewett ever built. A car
of beauty inside as well as out. You'll think of
the finest overstuffed furniture when you see
the new type upholstery Jewett has introduced
in the Coach. Sink into its soft luxury and
forget wear and tear, for it's as durable and
strong as it is beautiful.
Sedan Roominess
You have never seen so roomy and comfortable
aCoach.f's the finest Coach ever designed.
A Coach for five with ample room for five to
ride all day in loungy comfort.
Just Drive Jewett Coach
It't the easiest parking steering driv
ing Coach you ever touched. Parks easily
in a 16'i foot space at the curb. Enters or
leaves your garage from a H-foot alley. Steers
with bicycle ease. Turns in a 42-foot street.
Power that Seems Limitless
Jewett Coach will outperform any car
within $500 of its price: We stand ready to
prove this statement on hill, highway, in traffic,
through rough going anywhere! 5 to 25 miles
an hour in seven seconds in high I From a
mile an hourN without bucking, to a mile
a minute in less than a city block. That's the
kind of performance you buy in Jewett Coach.
Performance that Endures
Jewett motor is full, high-pressure oiled, even
to the valve tappets. Timing gears are replaced
with a silent chain drive and automatic take
up for pump and timing shafts. Adjustment
of chain wear is automatic, insuring quiet and
freedom from care for the life of the car. And
a big, new, counterbalanced crankshaft elimi
nates vibration. These are improvements you
look for in costly cars Jewett Coach has them
at $1260.
Just drive Jewett Coach yourself. No obli
gationcall or phone for a Jewett Coach at
your door. (56j.j,

Is said to be the only tractor over

It Is also a singular fact that
long before he dreamed of manu
facturing motor cars, Henry Kord
was experimenting with engines in
an ettori to find so mo means oi
relieving farm drudgery. Horn on
a farm, his firsl glimpi" of life
was in the daily rounds of arduous
farm duties and in his early boy
hood he developed a strong feeling
against prevailing agricultural
methods.
fs first experiments were witl.
steam engines through which he
hoped to find the power necessary
to relieve the farmer of some of
his burdens. That was back in
his boyhood when steam was vir
tually the only power of the time.

"Hard Luck"
May Be Only
"Slight
Inconvenience"
When you burn out a bearing, or need new pistons, or have a part
breakage in your car, don't curse your ill luck too hard or too soon.
The parts for your car may not be stocked by every little-roadside
garage but that's no sign you have to let them send to Portland or
Detroit for replacements. Nine cases out of ten or six out of five
you can get just the parts needed riftht here at Leighton's. And you
can get expert machinists to do a particular job, too.
We've turned lots of "hard luck" into "slight inconvenience" with
our stock, our ability, and our service. Take no chances next time,
try Leigh ton's. , ,
