The New
Franklin
The 125 Franklin owners in the La Grande
territory, will be greatly interested in seeing
these outstanding models. Drivers .'of other
cars will also show a keen interest as Franklin
now offers the newest note in fine motor car
design. '

. The New Franklin," as styled by de
Causse, is a brilliant ajid enduring
conception of beauty. Correctly fash- .
. ioned, richly appointed, completely
equipped, and high-powered, it is a
striking ensemble of everything that
makes ownership a delight. All seven
types lower-sluhg with longer wheel
base. Leading in comfort, reliability,
economy and road ability, it is fitting
that Franklin should also lead in style.
See these wonderful cars ride in them, with
yourself at the wheel and you will then have
a new conception of real motoring pleasure.
