"COME THOU WITH US AND Wl WILL DO THEE GOOD"
NO, it hasn't always been easy, here
of late, to be absolutely sure just
which way automobile design was
heading.
So it's a refreshing thing, people tell
us, to sec one car that quite clearly
knows where it's going and shows
it inside and out.
ou can't mistake this poised and
ready fashion plate for anything but
a Buick you're sure from a glance
that you'll find it steady as a battle
cruiser and full of ginger as one of
Grandma's cookies.
Your eye tells you it's big - you step
in anJ find this bigness carried out in
usable room as well as measurable
inches.
A broad bonnet promises plenty
power and you get it with such vel
vety new smoothness that you need
to check the battery-charge needle
