there Is no reason why all th

can be secured without the tiring
process of being personally made
by the busy mother. Teday. for
Instance, the marvellous modern
bakeries of America, produce the
same kind - of holiday , fruit cake
that "mother used to make," while
similar advances have been made
in other culinary fields.
Consequently the hostess of the

month in and month out with
little variation in the degree of
comfort
While it Is true that enclosed
models jump 'to the forefront in
popularity during chilly periods,
tourings and roadsters are no
wise strictly summer vehicles.
Chevrolet, for example, offer
in their open models a very snug
and comfortable means of trans
portation with adequate protection
agajnst wind, rain, fog and other
weather '. contingencies that beset
the motor traveler between Nov
ember and April. With curtains
up all around the interiors of
these body styles are as comfort
able as any fireside. Close fitting
door curtains permit of easy ac
cess, and when the warm days
come, as they do frequently in
Pacific coast winters, the owner
has an open car for the open
road.
Some special features of the
open models are: extra heavy
brake bands giving greater brak
ing efficiency, a positive steering
mechanism, clear vision wind
shield with rubber weather strip
and many other items intended
for the safety and comfort of oc
cupants.
The paint on both touring and
roadster models of Chevrolet is
Duco; that durable finish which
resists the ravishes of salt -air
dampness and retains its lustre
even under extreme exposure to
the hot sun.
