. DETROIT., Mich.. ; Aug. 15.
Following closely the recent price

dent and general manager of the
Cherrolet Motor . company, that
the entire line of both open and
closed models has been improTed
by the addition of numerous im
' provements. i-;r K:"fi .
. Included in the list ot improve-
ments are new and attractive
Leadllghts which replace" the for
mer type.s They are mounted on
a heavy tie-bar placed between
the front fenders. This arrange
ment affords better mounting' for
- the headlights and permits them
to be Interchangeable, eliminating
the necessity tor right nd left
hand lamps. The tie-bar also pro-
Tides a convenient place for carry
ing the front license plate.
The former steering wheel has
been supplanted by a substantial
walnut wheel with notched finger-
grips. The center ot the wheel
spider is ot polished aluminum.
' An Improved mounting for the
spark and throttle controls has
been arranged on the Instrument
panel.
The gear i shift lever has been
lengthened three inches
The .horn , formerly used has
been replaced by a motor .driven
Klaxon born. ;
. A heavier tie-rod ha been plac
ed between the radiator and dash
'Additional Interior" reinforce
ments have been added to the
Harrison radiator of rustless air
, plane metal. v '
Balloon tires are standard, on
all ejoaed models
Indestructible -Duco finish is
used on both open and closed cars.
The sedan Is In aquamarine blue
j and the coach and coupe In eage
green. The roadster, and touring
models are finished In gun metal
grty Duco with striping to match

blends pleasingly with the body
finish.

One wonders " why so many
towns do not build highways
around their towns rather than
leading to the center of the city,
adding to congestion. Many a
small town has made the mistake
of routing through traffic along
the main streets.

Gasoline La"n(ern'is Dependable for Use "Around 'Auto Camp
There are many ways of light
ing the camp, but for all around
efficiency and' convenience the
gasoline lantern will beat 'answer
the purpose.' !
fff
The 300 candle power light Will
Illuminate the entire camp and
Its surroundings so that i the
camper may cook or even read
without straining his eyes. An
other advantage ot this pressure
lamp is that it is economical to
use. Under ordinary conditions
where the'lamp is used only an
hour or so each night, one filling
should last for a week. :
It is absolutely safe to use, as
it cannot be filled while It Is
burning, or if it is accidentally
knocked over or dropped no harm
will result. j
It packed each time after using
in the carton in which it was pur
chased, the one eet ot mantels
should last for many weeks.
Where a light is not needed
for any period of time, a spot
light with a. long extension cord
will solve the problem very nice
ly. This can be used attached to
the car or clamped to the tent
pole. The rays can be focused so
that a wide range of lighting is
given , In place ot the concentrat
ed beam. There Is no noticeable
drain on the storage battery as
the day's drive will keep It fully
charged.
