PROMPT DELIVERY OF 1911 CARS GUARANTEED
Complete Factory Facilities
Four Years of Proof-
Regal Cars are manufactured cars made by one company, under one supervision.
Four years ago, when the Lamberts the -well-known capitalists of Detroit, Mich., and Fred W. Haines, the manufac
turer, first discussed producing a thirty-horsepower car of Regal excellence for twelve hundred and fifty dollars, they unan
imously decided that the mere assembled proposition would not do. The only way to make a car of such quality to sell at
such a low price was with complete factory equipment.
During the years sinceri this decision has been rigidly adhered to. The Regal plants have steadily grown from an output
of three cars a day in 1907 to thirty cars completely manufactured and shipped each working day in 1910. These three
years have been conscientiously devoted to the development of one model. Tools, machinery, buildings, organization, have
been untiringly improved, added to and changed in order that a perfect thirty-horsepower car might be produced for twelve
hundred and fifty dollars. The ultimate result is the 1911 Regal Thirty, the strongest, most durable, quietest and most hand
somely finished low-priced car made.
In the Regal factories it is not sufficient that each operation on each part be done with a special tool made for the pur
pose; each part after each operation is measured with a fine gauge made for that one operation, at great cost. If the mea
surement on any fine working part varies so little as 1-1000 part of an inch it is discarded as unfit.
Briefly, complete Regal factory equipment means to the purchaser of a Regal car this
That he gets high-grade construction and finish but does not have to pay a high price for it.
That he ean depend upon the manufacturers' and dealers' statements as to quality. The claims of the Regal manufac
turers are sincere because every part is made under their own personal supervision.
That extra parts can be quickly obtained at any time within one year or five years after the car is bought.
Automobile quality is proved by years of good service. The strongest claims and speculators cannot take the place of
such proof. y
Regal quality is insured by proper factory facilities, but beyond that is the strong, undeniable proof of time and service.
The Regal Thirty was the first low-priced car of such size and luxuriousness and power made in America. Four years
of factory experience and effort have seen it improved to higher and higher standards, with every feature, every item of
workmanship, every particle of material, tested and found true by thousands of satisfied owners. The price alone has re
mained stationary.
. . - It was the first 1910 'Regal Thirty that made the grueling run from New York City to San Francisco, and captured the
touring car record between those two points.' No car of cheap construction could have gone through such punishment and
" have arrived at its destination in good condition as did the "Regal Plugger."
It was a standard stock car, Regal Thirty, that won the cup in its class at the last Redlands, Cal., hill climb,
a nee, not claims, was needed, and the Regal stood the test.
When you purchase a Regal, you buy a motor that has proven its excellence through three years of bard usage,
bearings that are absolutely known to give long and good service. You get gears that have run without noise
great durability tor thousands of miles, iou procure the product of experience and certainty at low, cost.
It resolves itself into this
You may get good service from a low-priced car of another make.
But there is no other low-priced car of the size and power and appearance of the Regal that has so beyond question
proved its excellence and "durability and worth, as has the Regal.

J. R. Hall. Factory Representative,
Says Rose City Is Above Average
In Ownership of Machines.
Sign Posts Recommended.
That Portland Is one of the best auto- j
mobile cities on the Pacific Coast is the
belief of J, R. Hall, of the Losler Motor
Company, of New York, who was a
Portland visitor last week in the be
half of his company. Mr. Hall was
here trying to establish a Lozler agency
for Oregon In Portland.
An agency for this car was estab
lished with the Metropolitan Motor Car
Company but as' this company has dis
solved business a new agency must be
established. It was said last week that
Captain C- P. McCan and W. T. Sleddon.
cf the Tip-Top Automobile Company,
of Hood River, were the agents for the
toiler in Oregon and Washington, but '
this was not so. for no permanent
agency for that car was established in '
these two states although the oars were
handled by the Metropolitan Motor Car
Company of both Portland and Seattle.
Mr. Hall is a factory representative
and has been making a tour of the sub
agencies of the Losler Motor Company
throughout the Pacific Ooa&t and Is par
ticularly Interested In the future of his
car in the Northwest.
To that end he will probably install
agencies for his company in Portland
and throughout the Northwest. He has
had many offers to take care of the
interests of this popular car and may
accept one within a few days. At pres
ent he Is making his headquarters at
the Hotel Seattle In Seattle. He has
been on the Pacific Coast for some time
and Is much Impressed with the scenic
grandeur of the Western part of the
United States and particularly Portland.
The New York automobile man will
continue his Journey from Seattle to
Spokane. Salt Lake City, Kansas City.
Chicago and way points and on to the
home factory in New York. All along
the way he will Inspect the agencies
for his car.
Autos Gaining- Ground.
"1 am much impressed,' said Mr.
Hall, "with the automobile outlook on
the Pacific Coast and I think there is a
great future for the gasoline propelled
vehicle in the Western United States.
Particularly is this true In Portland. I
find the automobile Industry in its in
fancy. Here in Portland with Its fine
agricultural tributary territory, the
farmers are Just awakening to the
prospects of the automobile as a time
and labor-saver.
"In my estimation, "before many years
have gone by the horse and wagon as a
means of transportatlng their crops to
market will have been supplanted by
the automobile truck, many of which
are being sold to enterprising ranchers
tn California.
"One thing you need in this country
is sign posts to guide automobile par

"The pleasant hours spent in the

Mrs. Cadwell to- an Oregonian reporter.
"I am sure I have found the surest

View From Crest Is "Liked..
"In Portland I find fully as many au
tomobiles in use as in any of the other
cities of the Pacific Coast, in proportion
to sise, and within the next few years
the number will be doubled or trebled
After an automobile ride to your Coun
cil Crest I was introduced to one of the
grandest sights I have ever seen In the
world. There I saw three snow-capped
mountains and two broad rivers in ad
dition to the broad expanse of green
virgin forest, of which my state. New
York, has been almost entirely depleted.
If we but had this scene in New York!
Ah, how the people would flock to it.
Nature has done much for your beauti
ful city. I hope to locate on the Pacific
Coast some day and Portland appeals
to me very much."
Mr. Hall said that the Losler Motor
Company has a gigantic new factory
under construction at Detroit, Mich,, to
help the output of the present factory
located at Plattsburg. N. Y. Owing to
the small facilities of the present fac
tory much trouble has been experi
enced by the Pacific Coast cities in get
ting their cars supplied but with the
addition of the new factory this win
be overcome. The new factory will be
opened in the early Fall and will
double the output by January. A num
ber of Lozler cars are in use in Port
land and Oregon.
Mr. Hall left for Seattle on Friday
evening and will remain there about a
week when he will visit the Inland
Empire on his- way East. The Pullman
ear will probably be handled In Port
land by one of the other automobile
agencies.
