pussy willows are out, the Iambs
tongues and other early flowers
will r,ooti dot the hillsides. Till
brooks, are ..rustling and the trout
arc rising in the riffles, while sea
ward tho salmon run is beginning.
Spring's here and senile uld Dame
Nature la telling you it's lime lur
the meadows and the mountain,
the far trails and the open roud.
The highway associations and
the automobile men are busy, nun
ut them more so than the local
Durant dealers and tho other 750
dealers who make up tho Durant
sales organization through tin
west, for commencing today and
lasting until Saturday, March JO.
'they are ecle lira tin tr jointly the
summons outdoors and the sensa
tional values offered in their new
l'JUU cars. They have named the
celebration, "Durant Open Road
Week." . - .
' The event is one of tho most
elaborate and far-rcaehlng of the
kind ever held, for It represents
tho cooperative effort of the doal
ors, tho western. Durant factory at
Oakland and a goodly share of tho
public which is embracing this
opportunity tu open the : . spring
touring season appropriately. In
every community of the west, spe
cial displays of tho new cars have
been arranged, special programs
of , entertainment have been ur-
ranged, more than 100.000 Invita-
Ltjons have gono out to' motorists
of the west, urging Uiom to par
ticipate In the event.1 .
"Compare it for yourself," urges
.Mr. tfabin, along1 with the other
Durant dealers.- "Try it. Drive it
Then be convlncod how greatly it
excels all others of . comparable
price. Some good authorities have
said wo have the greatest array of
' motor cars and the greatest values
ever offered; try ono and find
out.' ' v
One unusual feature of "Durant
Open Itoad Week" Is a radio pro
gram to bo broudcast tonight from
8; to 9 p. m. by rc 1110 to control
over tho coast network. Leo Carll
lo, noted stage star, will be master
of ceremonies and Norman deVaux
head of the western Durant or
ganization, will bo tho chief speak
er... A striking part of tho program
wijl be tho broadcasting of the
hum of Industry as represented by
tho factory in full operation. Or
ders, for the new models have
forced the running of night shifts
for a tlmo and DeVaux has taken
this opportunity to let radio listen
ers hear just how a factory really
sounds. ., . ,
Another radio program will be
broadcast Wednesday night from
'station KVO to commence at il;yu
and contlnuo half an hour.
The doors of tho local Durant
establishment will ' remain open
until a late hour each evening this
week, to pormtl everyone tho full
est' opportunity to view tho now
cars and arrango for a drive in
ono. "
Fred M. Zeiler, vice-president in

' -"Neither tho- Chrysler car nor
