It is the ONLY 7-passenger, 4-cylinder car with a 376 inch bore x 5-inch stroke, FORTY horse power motor that has ever been offered, in America or Europe for less than $1000. And it is the ONLY car of the sea son that has accompanied a $100 reduction in price with such a SUBSTANTIAL INCREASE in quality. But all that we ask is for you to see the car. And it won't take but a few minutes for the car to convince you that dollar for dollar, it gives MORE than any Other Four on the market OREGON MOTOR CAR CO., Local Distributors Chapman and Alder Sts.

Klaael Kar Dealer Report That More Than S3 ler feat of Owner Re ard Maehlae aa t tility. Jiany people declare they cannot un derstand the marvelous trrowth of the automobile business. "Vet there are many plain reasons why it la year after year smashing to smithereens its own previous records. One of these Is found in the fact the American business men (renerally have come to r'Allsc. that the motor car is inilitpen.-ablc to the economical conduct or aff.-iiis. The sales of cars lo rnaniifai tun r.x nnd commercial houses for the use of their salesmen has irrown to bi proportions and there are positive indications that this class of trade will continue to expand. Careful Inquiry by leading Kissel Kar dealers In various parts of the country recently disclosed that more than 5 per cent of Kissel Kars are resarded by their owner as a utility, as well as a pleasure. They found that whilo the averaa-e owner thoroughly ap:re clales that there are splendid bent-Tits atTectinsT to an Inestimable decree the health and contentment of the domestic cr, la he also nr. come to know that his car cm earr Us own keep by serv Inar business purposes as well. "Next to the increasinx employment of cars for business purposes, the all year car Idea has been a potent factor In the nutomobile lrr.de." said II. f. thinner the other day. "Alth-Mich this oriainal conception of Kissel Kar is only a yur and a half old. it Is already self-evident that it has brought to the Industry a conlinous demand, in place of the former alternate live nnd dead seasons. Before the advent of ihe all year car. and the many convertible cars that have recently followed it. dealers used to give up trylrw to sell cars at Ihe first sKn of cold weather. Now they can k tp on tlohiK business all Winter. It has been a wonderful boon to motoring and a j:reat thinst for the car manufacturer and dealer." XKW KISSKl, THICK AKIUVES Coiislilernblo Interest Is Caused by TlireevQuarler-Toii ('nr. In accordance with an announcement made by the local Kissel Kar branch a sliort time a no. the new throe-quarter ton Kissel truck arrived in this city Tuesday, according to II. "". Skin ner, manager of the Pacific Kissel Kar branch. Considerable interest has been aroused in this new Kissel truck, it Is said, principally on account of the fact that it will sell for a price said to bn considerably under that of man:: other trucks of similar capacity and also to the fact that it is equipped with the popular David Brown worm drive. Mr. tjkinner predicts that it will en Joy a wide patronaxe in botli the cit iea and farminir districts, as the ca pacity of this sturdy model is exactly adapted lo so many different lines of industrv that Its field Is practically without limit. This hiirh efficiency truck, tho latert product of the Kissel factorv. is marked with the same care ful attention to detail lr construction that has so long distinguished the Kis sel pleasure cars.

The course of the tour was changed, the car beinK driven to Toledo and return, the liSO miles buintf covered in five hours and 5S minutes" actual running time. This was about seven minutes under the running time of the previous day. showing an aver age in excess of 12 miles an hour. During the four days' running tlia car had only to change a tire. Many of the cars were forced to com bat mud and slippery roads, but all covered the required distances, and frequently in excess, within the allot ted tii.ie of li hours by one or two 1 .... ......... rrn Till' llltnta.

The official observer on this trip was a one-armed man, and he drove the final lap, making a speed rangine: around 47 miles an hour in stretches. The reports, which include driving over mountainous territory, through snowstorms and over mired roads. show the Studebaker cars participating in this remarkable test averag'd miles an hour, and J".2 miles to the gallon of gasoline. The only troubles experienced by the drivers were from tire punctures, nonu whatever of a mechanical nature. DEMAND l OI! ROADSTER MAINS Kissel kar Adapted to Rc(iiircniont Tor Business Purposes. The demand for roadsters this rail is much greiier than that of any previous season, due largely to the in creasing use of tiie aiitoin. iliile for business purposes and the wider util ity afforded by the new three and four-passenger bodies. One of the most useful cars on tin maiket is the 1916 four-passenger Kis sel Kar roadster with which a detach able coupe top may be obtained. It is an ideal car for both business ami pleasure am1 one of the niosi attractive of the Kisse all-year ear imd.-ls. Old as the hills but still rambling along 4f J ii tt We can save you money This advertising expres sion undoubtedly dates back to the beginning of barter and sale, and as a talking point is hard to beat The only trouble about its use is that some people are impetuous and want to see the saving quick. So far as tires are concerned, and if it is the immediate dollar right in hand that is wanted, you can beat Diamond Squeegee Tread Tires for a quick saving at the start. BUT if it is the big saving that comes from accumulated mileage that's most inviting, we can truly save you money on Diamond Squeegee Tread Tires.
