The wide, soft-cushion seats, upholstered in genuine hand-buffed plaited leather, are cozy as cozy can be. And the low underslung spring construction, a feature of the Cleveland Syc chassis, subdues the road-shock long before it can reach the cushions. Many unusual qualities such as these are fast winning friends for the Cleveland Six. Among light weight sixes it stands out distinctly. At all the principal automobile shows this season it has attracted ex traordinary crowds. Men of mechan ical interests and men experienced in the use of motor cars have been generous in their expression of ap proval and admiration for the entire design and construction of the Cleve land Six chassis. The several beautiful styles of body, mounted on this one chassis, have met with praise from men and women alike. When you see or drive the Cleveland Six, you want it.
