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.
Ilcforo taking on tho Studebnker
line no mad n thorough Investigation
of practically every car on tho mar
ket, with n view to adding to our line
u car which wo could safely hack
up with a service guarantco never be
fore attempted In Mcdford. Ily n
Dealer's Sorvleo Ounranteo you can
Judge hln faith In his enr. Ily his
nullity to glvo the service promised
on can judgo your ulllmnto satisfac
tion, Wo have established n service
on Studebaker cars, which space for
bids axplultiliig In detail. Ordinarily
such service would bo very expensive
to us but we have enough faith in tho
Studebnker to feel that the service
piomlso will not he burdensome.
