' More than ever before car buy
ers today demand outstanding per
formance In addition to style and
quality, according to John A. Nich
ols, Jr., president of the Falcon
Motors Corporation, builders of
the Falcon-Knight line of slx-cyl
inder cars.
"Long years of service at a min
imum cost is net an unreasonable
demand of the present day car
buyer." Mr. Nichols said, "and we
have so designed and constructed
the Falcon-Knight products to
meet that demand.
"In employing the Falcon-
Knight sleeve-valve engine In our
cars we have set a high standard
of quality and our engineers have
designed every unit to be thor
oughly In keeping with the high
Standard of the motor. We have
incorporated various features in
the Falcon-Knight Six which are
usually found only in cars selling
in a higher price classification.
"This fine method of construc
tion, however, has been made nec
essary in order to produce a motor
car that would set a new high
standard of performance over a
long period of years.
Since our entrance Into a new
low price field with a Knight en
glned car, there has been noted a
marked trend toward this type of
power plant. This trend Is due to
the characteristic performance of
the sleeve-valve engine.- It is not
unusual in Europe, where- this
type of power plant has been po
pular for many yean, to find ears
still in operation after more than
ten year and still giving satis
factory service.
"In our construction of the Falcon-Knight
Six we have built into
it those features which should de
liver to an owner satisfactory and
economical service alter as high
as ten years of operation. This, w
believe sets a new objective for
car manufacturers in the Falcon-
Knight price range."

we have almost equalled our ship

never a year when the full total
of shipments was as large as dur

"Shipments to Canada reflect
the same progress. June, 1928,
Is the largest June in pur history
in this respect as well, being 7 per
cent ahead of June. 1927. The
six months' comparison holds

domestic trade, for we have ship
ped 1320 cars to the Dominion

226 In the first six months of
1927. This Is an increase of 60
per cent.
"The showing in exports is even
more remarkable. In June, 1928,
we sold abroad 559 cars compared
with 274 in June, 1927, an in
crease of 104 per cent, wlv'le In
the first half of this year we have
exported 3,106 cars, an increase
of 1,602 or 94 per cent over the
first six months of 1927.
"For the entire twelve months
of 1927 we exported 2.743 cars..
In the past six months our exports
toialled 3.105 cars. This 'is an in
crease of 363 cars for the six
months compared with the previ
ous entire year, which shows that
we have already exported 110 per
