Priwontitlon next Tuesday of
tiaw and Hiimrter body typeti nnd a
group of new colors for the Model
A Ford l announced today by the
Onjes Auto Co., locnl Ford denier,
who ipmphnslzed the fact thnt no
mechanloul change In contemplat
ed in the cat because of the thor
ouphty Kattufactory performance It
hnn been Hiving.
' Mr. (inlea described this car ns
follows: . , .
.."KodoHlgned along ultra modern
linos, tthe new bodies wilt hnvo a
distinctly: refreshing appearance,
with ull the beauty and charm of
contour, line and proportion usual
ly iiMiociafed . only with custom
conch worli and largo cars. .
' Rutin- Front Hiilsol
"The- entire front of the Model
A Is' raised and in beautiful pro
portion to- the new body types.
Moulding treatment is new, and
fenders are 'of moro generous di
mensions, flowing with the lines or
thn car. A now treatment In the
contour and sweep of the bodies,
with'.' a' '-graceful forward pitch,
gives 'the impression of fleetness.
'"Kvery line from tho flat radia
tor car) to the tip of the low.
graceful ourvo of the rear fenders
is hew,. clear cut ; nnd extremely
smart. ', '
'Rustless steel will be used for
radiator : . shell, headlamps, hub
caps, all are bright nnd shining,
and will stay so, for in this rustless
steel the- ohrornluiu Is not on the
outside, like a thin veneer, but is ;
alloyed with the Iron. Moisture,
whether from water, steam, Ice or
snow will not rust It.
. -1 - Change In itadlator ..
.Vlerhapa - the , most striking
change to catch the eye Is the new
radiator. I HUH retaining; the Ford
individuality, i tho, contour of the
Khtdr.ls extremcly attractive, blend
ing beautifully with the new fen
der lines and other changes.' The
trip follows somewhat the lines of
the old helj, with narrower lines
clown Vu'cn side, which curve Into
a juncture at the starter opening
111 the center of the lower section.
"The. general effect Is one of
greater height and less width,
whloh. combined with the sweep
ing' curves, - contributes much to
the .trlmness and smartness of the j
whole car. ' '
"This effect Is heightened by a
sturdy tie rod, finished in black
enamel, which rises In a graceful
arch from each fender, it supports
the license bracket, and the bend
lights, which nro higher than be
fore. . :-. .
" Sturdier, Smaller Wheels
'"'Additional strength has been
built -into tho body by the con
struction of 'the cowl, the sides of
which extend in one piece up along
the windshield pillar to the roof
line. Not only does this give
sturdlness, but It reduces the pos
sibility of soueuks. While cowl
lights are stnndnrd equipment only
on the Town Sedan and t'abrlulet,
all body types have been wired for
the hi, and they may be Instulled at
siiull cost.
sturdy, compact design of the
wheels has been produced. They
are smaller In diameter nnd conse
quently nearer tho road. As be
fore, they are mnde complete, In
one' piece, all of the steel spokes
lielrig electrically welded . to the
huh KheJI anil rim. The angle at
which the spokes are placed helps
to distribute the force of road
shocks and gives greater strength,
ICnsy Hiding tjuallllcn
"With the use of tho smaller wheel
the tire size has been Increased
from .6lixSI balloon to 4.75-18
balloon. This adds to the romfurt
of the passengers In a car already
rMiiurkable for Its easy, riding
ciuulities.
' "A variety of colors has been
added and may be obtained by the
purchaser without additional cost.
Much study has been given to Ibis
matter and nn especial effort made
to please the women motorists.
-tTlie ,tnost .notable changes In
the body. typos have been made in

beauty of which Is accentuated by

PROVE FALLACY OF
Tr.'iinload shipments of automo
biles In November establish an
other exceptional record In the
history of lie Hoto. On three oc
casions in less than three weeks'
time special mo lid train load ship
ment's, in addition to the regul.tr
deliveries, wore mndo from he
factory in Detroit to supply the
demand of new-car buyers.
"These special trainload ship
ments indicate public realization
of the qualities of the automobile,
rather than the season of tho year,
as the real determining factor.
and that this Is an advantageous
time of year to purchase a new
car, says .Mr. Aloud ot tho aieuu
Kurch Alotor company, local deal
ers. K
In making the first tralnlo.id
shipment, what Is believed to bo
a record In point of time wns
made. This was n. train or thirty
freight cars, moving from Detroit
In tho I e Soto dea lor In T.os
Angeles, The running time w.is
approximately six ami' fine -ha if
days. Tho train left the Do Son
plant In Detroit at 11 a. m.. No -ember
!. At 3:0.1 that afternoon
it was on Its way to Chicago. It
passed through Kiuikis City the.
next evening at 11:10 p. m., Nov

at t:!"( a. m. on November 111.
Following this were two other
trainload shipments to other sec
tlon of the country, made tip of
twenty and twenty-three frek-ht
cars each, at which no at tempt
for speed was made The ol.il
value of the automobiles moved
in these deliveries Is over a qu
tor f a million dollars.
It Is pointed oul by L. C. Tte-.i,
general sales manager for Do Sot
that the demand for new cii"
necessitating these trainload ship
ments proves the fallacy of a i
of f -season In automobile buying
"There ha been a popular be
lief." said Mr. Peed, "that fall an 1
winter are periods when no on
things of buying a now car. in
the case of Do Moto. however. w-
are demonstrating that this sen. n
of tho year Is tho proper one fo
making the change from an old
car to a new."

City Buses
Front Seat Advice
! 'Watch out for high curbs when
' backing Into diagonal parking
1 places in wtrange towns. They wHI
often bend a rear fender badly.
It doesn't add many miles to tJie
days run. and it does Increase the
danger of driving, to speed up In
termittently and pass other cjrs
on a crowded highway. A steady
rate of travel that keeps up with
the average speed of the cars on
the road will bring you to your
destination just as soon.-
j When filling your tires with air
nnd testlnb them, don't neglect the
spare. Jf you keep it at the rUht
j pressure, you won't have to pump
it up when you need it nt some
: lonely place In the country.
t If you do run out of gas on t'ie
i road nnd havo . to walk to the
nearest filling station for a gallon,
bo sure to borrow a funnel that
; will fli Into the hole In your tank.
' On some cats, especially the oldor

buck that the average largo funnel
I will not reach them.
