Also, the cylinders of a six-cylinder engine being much smaller in diameter, than those, of a Four of equal horsepower, the explosions are, of course, lighter, and lighter, explosions means less vibration. In the Great Arrow Six vibration ts entirely aosent. - SILENT OPERATION These small and more numerous explosions naturally create a much lighter and a more continuous exhaust; and both, being less violent, means practically noiseless running. .

For the sixth succeAsive yer we are, telling the .tory of the ingle cylinder Cdillac. Yet, with 11 its repetition, it hat lost none of its interest.

Look around and you 1QAR will see the very first Cadillacs made still running the same as iyUi ever. Not one of them, so far as we know, has ever been cast aside because worn out or unfit for further service, although a number of 'them, according to the reports of their osers, have been driven more than 50,000. niiles.

After the first year, envious competitors, none of whom had I ever been able to produce its e9ual. predicted the early, ."1 of e single cylinder Cadillac, but it did not and would not "down. It had so en trenched itself as the ideal car for the great majority of people that no power could halt its constantly gaining prestige And now, after five ?ears of unprecedented success, it enters upon its r position of still greater favor than ever before-a position attained by reason of genuine merit alone. -. ,, . There has, during the past year, been a wonderful awakening to the fact, which is now generally conceded, that in moderate jnced r, the Sinele Cylinder !s the only type that has truly "made good m every senfe of the word, and the position of the Cadillac in that class is so pre eminent that it is not even a subject of argument The Single Cylinder Cadillac has conclusively pwv ttwlf to be the most economically operated and maintained of any motor cm the world.

The Cadillac "Model G" was designed in response to the great de mand for a medium priced four-cylinder car. possessing the desirable features of construction and high grade material and workmanship rep resented in the more expensive types. - How well this was accomplished is best evidenced by the success of the "Model G" itself, its splendid performances' on the track and road and the splendid service and satisfaction it has rendered to its hundreds .' of users during the past year. ; , ThtX the "Model G" was correctly designed and that every minute detail has been worked out with consummate care is proven by its con stantly outrunning, outclimbing. and outclassing in every way, cars of twice its rated power anf cars selling at fifty to one hundred per cent higher prices. V;.;.. . ' ' r , y ' " The "Model Gi is not a new. and. untried experiment. It has-been thoroughly tested and" tried out during the; past year by hundreds of the most : critical and exacting motorists, both in America and abroad. It has repeatedly demonstrated its speed capabilities at a .rate of from 45 to 50 miles per hour and has proven itself a hill climber extraor dinary, ' ':-..;;r' ' ' In action, the "Model G" is remarkably free from noise, and vibra tion, while only by actual demonstration can its luxurious riding quali ties be fully appreciated. , jcodzti a, ss ac ' . roira-OTMMPZB oapit.t.o moaparum; sa,ooo. q-dtht, rowxnm, wnBDt, bxuaxzjb. . 4-Cylinder, 30rft.
