Not the dangerous accidents due to reckless driving but the kind that the average driver cannot foresee? Nine cases out of ten they are due to some part of the car being out of order. They are usually due to some complicated or concealed part L- i. j.-: L f . - 1 J:J I .' L! J:J -. wmcn me anver, wno is nui a mecnanic, euner uia nut Know was in (lis carf uiu nut understand or could not see without taking his ur apart. It is in the accessibility of pats, the simplicity of construction and the dependability of the working parts that Velie cars have established and maintained a record peculiarly free from accidents. Take the steering gear for instance. At every sharp turn of a mountain road the lives of the occupants of the car depend upon the proper action of the steering gear. The Velie gear is adjustable, self-oiling and overly strong. Not iu Velie history has one failed. The Velie Motor is built with bronze-backed bearings which run longer with less attention than any other. It has larger valves, thorough combustion, best balance, cen trifugal pump with two water outlets and a positive, gear-driven oil pump supplying lubrication to every bearing and moving part. This means that the Velie motor is dependable. It will not fail when the crisis comes. The radiator is of the honeycomb type with maximum cooling ability. Timken axles are used on every Velie car. Starting, lighting and ignition systems are independent in function and thoroughly dependable. Velie gear shifts are quiet, positive and effective. The clutch is smooth but posi tive and the gliding pickup not only protects the car but assures dependable application of power. Velie brakes are larger and better than ever. A slight touch stops the car in stantly. These are but a few of the many features that make the Velie the safest and most dependable car on the market today. Add to this the roomy compartment for the driver with the depressed footboard and .adjustable pedals, insuring that the driver is always comfortable and you have the reasons why Velie cars are seldom mentioned and are never at fault in the accident records of the automobile world. ...
