Well, wa may ablcker at tha Idea up

and It. almost seems aa though Jeffries
would know a bit of fighting flesh after
all these years.

It Is onlv on the supposition that Un

In the annual Pasadena-Altadena hill climb at
Cos Angeles the $2,000 KISSEL KAR WON
FIRST PLACE in event for roadsters selling at
$3,000 and under, and also won the event for tour
ing cars at $2,000 and under. The time of the
"speedy Kissel Kar roadster was only beaten by four
cars, each selling for $4,000 and over.
THe Kissel Kar was the only car to WIN ALL
THE EVENTS in which it was entered in fact,
the only make to win more than one event, and
making better time than the following well-known
.cars:
Baynes ($3,750); Stoddard Dayton ($2,500),
Thomas Flyer ($4000), White Steamer ($3,500),
Thomas Detroit ($2,750), Oldsmobile ($2,750),
Tourist ($3,000), Rambler ($2,500), Pope Hart
lord ($2,500), Elmore ($2,500), Reo ($2,500),
Oldsmobile ($1,900) Tourist ($1,950), Jackson

terlooa to the foreign cars, ana. too,
the Thomas haa naturally made the
trail for tho tail-endera and atiU leads.
"It la a demonstration also or the
superiority in tha mechanical arts; for
aa yet no account haa appeared where
the Thomaa waa laid up for repairs,
thnus-h wa hava seen where the foreign
cars have torn out whole transmissions
and broken axles. One French car had
to be withdrawn entirely. We, of
course, do not like to see our friendly
rivals experience adversities too se
verely; still, we can't help but smile
when we think how nobly the Thomaa
stands up under the same conditlona.
"This is certainly the most severe
test to which the auto has been put,
and, had the same proposition been con
ceived of and put before the automo
bile manufacturers three or four yeara
ago, people would have ridiculed the
Idea, and some even did sb in thla case
This la also true among the manufac
turers. we believe every auto manu
facturer and dealer and people srener
ally today hope for the success of the
'innmRs car, even though in soma In
stances It ts a strong competitor. Wa
believe also that every automobile
manufacturer baa tha greatest respect
ror tt. uBomas, president or the s.
R. Thomas Motor company, for ao
forcibly showing hla conviction of the
BDiniy or tne m nomas car.
There were a number of American
manufacturers who were to enter thla
race, but when it waa really developed
and they saw It was to be a real race
they got cold feet and withdrew. The

THE CAR YOU
CAN AFFORD TO
BUY AND KEEP
You may feel that a cheap machine is all you can afford to
buy, but can you afford to keep it? It costs as much to
keep a cheap horse as a good one. It costs a whole lot
more to keep a cheap automobile than a good one. Auto-
nlQbilmg is getting down to that point
reached in bicycling soma time ago,
where the. idea is given up of trying
to buy a new model tach year. The
machine you buy now you must expect to keep and you want to buy a machine that
you can afford to keep one that the seller has more than a passing interest in and pro
' tects you for the future with a good'stock of repairs.
