ARMORY Tenth and Davis Streets ACCESSORIES DISPLAYED AT THE ARMDRY Largest, Most Comprehensive Auto Show Ever Held West of Chicago! Owners Praise It For Its Comfort The delightful comfort with which five adult persons ride in the Cleveland Six touring car has appealed to buyers everywhere. The wide, soft-cushion seats, upholstered in grenuine hand-buffed plaited leather, are cozy as cozy can be. And the low underslung spring construction, a feature of the Cleveland Six chassis, subdues the road shock long before it can reach the cushions. Many unusual qualities such as these are fast winning friends for the Cleveland Six. Among light weight sixes it stands out dis tinctly. At all the principal automobile shows this season it has attracted extraordinary crowds. Men of mechanical interests and men ex perienced in the use of motor cars have been generous in their expression of approval and admiration for the entire design and con striction of the Cleveland Six chassis. The several beautiful styles of body, mounted on this one chassis, have met with praise from men and women alike. When you see or drive the Cleveland Six, you want it.
