responsibility of the producers, feed

tributed to preventable diseases, con

insufficient exercise during heavy

Losses under cont rol of the rail

The Star Oupster, a new type of
automobile that im certain because i
its utilitarian features to win instant
approval from car buyer, is an
nounced by the Durdut Motor com
pany of ( uiifornia and has been pined
on display by the I,une Auto company,
local iStar car dealers.
The new .Star Coupster fills a def
inite motoring need. It is at . unce
an oprn uud enclosed roadster H;id
a coupe, at, the wiil ' f its, owner.
Ituilt on the frame iMiUHft made 1am-ou-
by standard equipment of four

lur Motor," the greatest single feature
of the new model i the I tody, whidi
is built by Unyes-Huut, interuatioti
ally famous coach workers..
It is finished in blue lacquer, has
n grained leather t' p and is uphoi
stered in Spani-h gray lea the '.
Natural finis- wood wheels, and b.tl
loon tires, set off the new ear ad
ninthly. Fenders and running gear
are in black.
There is a large, roomy compart
inent under the rear deck for carry
ing practically any number of small
articles, and which will accommodate
a quantity of u teases, bags :r port
folios. I or this reason, according to
Kenneth Able., there will be a m'
demand for the car from doctor-,
nurses, professional men nnd women,
and salesmen.
The name "Con paler,' unique as
a type of nut mobile, has been pro
tected by government register. Ac
cording to thf Star oiticia.s, th;s
mime combines both coupe and rond
ter in its make-up.
T' e coupster has a low, racy ap
pearance. Its tp just beyond the
one-piece w niishield just enough te.

same time as a vist r. Above the
doors are the sliding w ndows, whicii
slide into the top by a clever arrange
ment, and which -may be raised or
lowered at will. These are fimule
extremely durable because of the
constant ue to which they will be
subjected.
Somewhat nfter the fashion of the
recently introduced Star conch, the
coupster is an all-year car. He-cause,
nf this reason alone, both are' destined
to reach supreme heights in demand.!
The coupster may be made just nn i
snug as the eon(u, because its sid
ing windows are well fitted.
The new model seats two passen
gers. ....
The local Stnr ear dealer states
that the new model will be the
recipient of great approval hy car
buyers, because of its instant adapti
biiity and because of great records
that have followed the intnxlucti'-n
of the 'Million Dollar Motor,"
