WL OW MOTOR PHD FOR ITSELF ON POWELL'S PLAN An clement wlilcli the pliospccllvo motorist seldom tnkes Into account In his estimates of tho bcnoMts which his car will bring, Is tho inspiring In fluence which the car brings to tho health and strength of hlniHolf nnd hln family, Many a life linn heen prolonged by a doctor's prescription that consisted folcly of ono motor car, taken In reg ular nnd frequent (loses. Moro oft en than not, bo doctors say, tlio car's advent marks tho loss of ninny a re munerative patient who, given this added Incentive- to regular, pleasant outings in tho open hlr, lifts Ijcmi en tirely cured of sorao real or Imagin ary ailment. Especially Is this benefit noted among person's of advancing age, to whom n dolly outing or two Hi tho open old often proves n restorer and nn agent of prolonged 11 to nnd good health. "Pny aH yon ride." Power of tho Powell Auto Co., local Maxwell dis tributors, Is fond of telling In this connection of n enno that leccutly camo under his own notice. "I happen to know a business man" Mr. Power says, "whose wages tiro probably about $I2R or ft 50 a month, lie Is middle-aged and lias unbody dependent on lilin but his wife, who wns for many jenrs mi In valid. "Aftor trying nil sortH of treatment to restore her to health, bo bought n light, medium-priced automobile. Tho car was of no uso In IiIh business, ex cept as n means of trnuaportntlon to nnd from work, but ho told mo tho other day that It had already paid for itsolf in both happiness and in cold cash. "Kvcry pleasant ovenlng this man nnd his wife motored tho streets nnd boulevards of their homo city. Kvory holiday when weather has permitted, they have enjoyed n short tour in tho country. lie upends his annual vaca tion in tho car and takes his wlfo with him. "Slnco ho hits had tho car ho has not Incurred ono cent of doctor's hill. Ills wifo is, Tor tho first thuu In years, absolutely well nnd radiantly happy. As for tho maintenance expense, lio u'eclares'tlint It is easily eovered by the reduction In carfare, theaters nnd othor nmiiBomentH which tho enr has displaced. "Tho last tlmo I saw him, this man told mo that, If his car couldn't ha re placed, ho wouldn't sell It nt any price. It had transformed tho whole atmosphcro of his homo." SERVICE OF MOTOR CAR DIG PROBLEM Tho greatest problom to car ownors of tho west Is: Wlioro can I get n car that will render mo normal sorvleo under norninl wentern conditions, nnd at tho unmo tlmo lm assured of Bor neo from my local leader necessary to makn my purchaso u satisfactory ono Practically all automobiles are manufactured In tho mlddlo went whoro rond conditions such nst wo know arc unknown. Under the con ditions existing hero, most any car will measure up to manufacturers tests, nnd give uniform service. The western driver naturally meets somo mlddlo western rond conditions, but In mountain driving ho strikes the long hard pulls that aro unknown In the car manufacturing country. With this (rindltlon In mind, tho Studchnker Corporation produced a car, light In weight, sufficiently roomy, with excess power sufficient to Insure normal service under the most adverse rond conditions. Tho four cylinder car, weighing only 2GC0 pounds, Ifas a 40 h. p. mo tor, tho Six of tho samo tpo actually generates SO h. p. On a rcconl drive from Portlnnd to Med ford It was not found necessary to shift the gears of the Six, but instead, nil hills wcro easily negotiated In high gear. This run not only conclusively proved that the enr has sufficient power, but that back of this power was sufficient strength of construction to lnsurt long nnd continued nervine under tho nioHt trying conditions.
