Newcomer in the field of eights

months to reach first position in
that class.
"Eever since its first display.
when 400.000 people went to our
various. auttriDutors" and dealers
, , Rfiowroouis to see the car within
30 hours exceeding, all prsvlous
records for, -interest rsales of the
car have grown at a, remarkably
fast rate," Mr. Hutchinson said.
"Output this month will! be the J
largest yet reachedv . The, car',3
unusual features have, attracted to
it more attention than ha been
accoruea any . new model in s the
, last year or more, regardless of
price; . . ,
"KepOTts from owners as to the
lemarkabie results they are re
reiving from the Eight continue

, Jj Rowland Bibbins, wno made
a survey for the city of Indianap
olis, pointed out that in that city
automobiles carry as many per
sons as the street cars In the out
bound rush hour evening traffic.
The put-bound and in-bound
peaks in the center 'zone of that
cttyare so cfosly proximate as to
indicate a very large cross-town
traffic through the center xone
which can4 be greatly relieved by
by-pass streets. ? 1 .

In the, day time constitutes one
half of, the total motor vehicle
movement and much Improvement
can be effected by segregating this

The crankshaft of ftPneroiis
proportions is perfectly balanded

the slislrtest variation of any of
the crankshaft throws. Aside froln
thig the shaft rotates in three
bearings, bronze backed of liberal
size, which are dovetailed Into the
crankcase and then securely bojted
for rigidity. The fact that pres

cushioning effect.
' Periodic vibration of the valves
at various motor speeds has been
entirely eliminated by the adop
tion of'double valve springs. The
tension of the inside spring Is
different from that of the ontside,
conseyjuently it Is next to Impos
siblefor any valve to hold open

build-up of the sprincs, which j Is
primarily' caused by improper
