WINTER DRIVING Refinements in Dodge Bro thers Car Bring Added Comfort to Motorists Dodge Brothers improved coupe which may now be viewed at the salesroom of Bonesteele Motor company, local Dodge Brothers dealer, is obviously a car which will contribute much to the repu tation of the makers. The outstanding feature of the car, after its motor and substan tial appearance, is a minute at tention to all those details which cater to the comfort and conveni ence of the motorist. One feature certain to win approval during cold weather is the body heater palced flush with the floor direct ly in front of the passenger seat. This neater is adjustable for sum mer or wineer weather, so that by means of a convenient lift control the heat can be regulated. In summer the lever is dropped back to normal and the heat passes out through the exhaust pipe. Disc wheels, done in black enamel with cream stripe, en hance the appearance of Dodge Brothers coupe and bring out to advantage its substantial linen. Other refinements are anti-rat-Uers which hold the windows firm ly in place and prevent vibration, and weather strips in the doors, affording extra protection in un pleasant weather. The shopper need not worry when she parks her car and leaves it crammed with parcels, for both doors are Yale lock equipped. With the adjustable steering wheels, the dlrver of the coupe man enter it with ease from either side, and by means of a latch the wheel can be thrown up out of the A 1 on the slippery pavement ii yo sylvania Vacuum Cup Tires" After the many accidents that sliDoerv navemenis no one can " j of these wonderful tires. way while jgettlng in the and then thrown back into normal position when ready for driving.
