MOTOR CAR
Few days are too cold for co m fo rta b le
driving in this sturdy car.
Snug-fitting cu rtain s, w hich open and
close with the doors, afford complete
protection from wind and snow.
The carburetor and starter are famous for
their prompt and dep en dable response
on cold mornings.
Cord tires, with safety treads, act as a
safeguard against skidding, and greatly
reduce the possibility of having to change
tires in disagreeable weather.
