IN HiGHEEAR TEST
Famous St. Louis' .Grpde,
beckman Hill, s Conquer-.
ed by Stock Car "
Spence,wen-known automobile
writer on the staff of the St. Louis
Poet-Dispatch, was given a real
surprise by a motor car 'recently,
wjien a stock Cardneii; Six to'urtng
car driveu by R. , E. Lypes o.tbe
Gardner Motor company, and car
rying three additional passengers;
including Spene, and another
nek-spaper ' mabrv climbed r St.
Lobis' most voted test !grade-
beckman Hill in high gear. ,
Referring to his experience fn
a recent Sunday issue of the'Post-
Uispatch, Spence -wroter "Rain
had made the hill slippery-tt In
stretches and the pitches were
even meaner than usual. As the
Gardner; was carrying .four men,
it looked like Lydes was setting
it to an impossible task. But the
car never t .hesitated, - climbing
steadily a and surely over-in high
gear without knocking of labor
ing. It was a fine exhibition of
power.
"The car rode as comfortably,
as many' a car of 125 or 130 inch
wheelbase. There was a noticeable
steadiness in its behavior at all
times, giving an impression of
firm, solid construction and
plenty of strength. Its 207 cubic
inch engine gives unusual power,
Its acceleration is very swift at
all speeds and it hangs on dog
gedly at slow speeds ou steep
grades.
"From a walking pace through
all the sped ranges up to 40, 45,
50 miles an hour-and faster It
ran kuietly and with an eagerness
to 1 go that was very attractive.
Incidentally, it may be remarked,
that it can do better than 60 miles
an hour when necessary. If It has
a "period of vibration," the writer
failed to detect it. It handled,
sweetly on the curves'. Its enclosed
mechanical 4-wheel brakes took
hold stoo6th1y and firmly, its long
springs, -each two inches wide;' its
full balloon tires and' the snub
bers f ront nd" rear added mater
ially to riding comfort. Altogether
Itlisa ear-worthy; of a. place la
any .man's -garage, and "one, that;
on ' city streets or country roads,''
will. Jiold its own with - cars that
cost much more money. ' :

.?"It is a hill climber par excel
lence, a fast-stepping tourer; "a
chariot of ease over- the ' bumps
and always comfortable,' eveti In

and !again with accents of pleased
surprise. v .' " ' ' . r

the six-cylinder, low price also
both mechanically and iu (appear

ed," he said. "However, nothing I
can say will exactly satisfy the
curious, and we prefer to make
ah announcement of the new car
and extend an invitation to see it,
inspect it, and ride in it when the
cars are actually here.
'"This new car has been the
Subject of discussion for several
months in tho auto trades, when
news first leaked oul in manufac
turing circles that it whs being
built. Then came the newt- that
it would be a six-cylinder car, and
that its price would be extremely
low. I am sure I could say nothing
but what would detract from the
cars themselves. 1 do know, how-
