Each passing year has marked a far ad vance in electric car construction. The Detroit Electric of 1916 is a modern, powerful automobile in every sense of the word. It is a car with all the speed yon really need. It is a car with battery capacity which guarantees you greater mileaee with out recharging than you ordinarily use in a day's motoring. It is a car with plenty of power to climb hills and pull through heavy roads. Yer even while the Detroit Elec tric has steadily advanced in value the price has steadily declined through the economies of greater prod uction. 1916 Detroit Eiactrlc Price Model 61 4 pat Brougham, Jt73 Model 60 5-pata.

Alder at Twelfth. Marshall 1752. The Electric Vehicle It gives economy of money because the up keep is much cheaper. It consumes nothing while idle. It requires less "stable" room. , It requires fewer men to care for and groom it. 'It requires no attention when idle, lasts much longer, reduces force of men used in delivery of goods, because in small package delivery it can do the work of two or more wagons, because it carries more and goes much faster than a horse. It does no damage to roads to speak of, and makes congestion -of-traffic problems comparatively easy. It is always ready, keeps up its power in spite of roads or weather, can be worked any number of extra hours, as, for ex ample, in the holiday rush. Yes, It's a Stubborn Fact, the Electric Vehicle For the conveyance of passengers or freight Is the Only Modern Way Phone Commercial Department Marshall 5100, A 6131 Portland Railway, Light & Power Company ELECTRIC VEHICLE CULTURE'S CAR There is a distinctive place in Cardom which only the Electric Automobile can fill. For those who live in town or suburbs it is the one logical car. Because more than mere utility is imperative. There is the further requisite of quality, of j-efinemer.t. of fashion, of that extra "somrthinjr" which bespeaks true culture. This is realized by those who own an Electric car.
