BELTRAMLI' . i H £ et S TG | H | ‘Y i 5 o o e e e LINCOLN ACTIVITIES T0 CONTINUE AS BEFORE| Increased sctivities - at the great Lincoln factories in Detroit are ex- pected immediately. It will- doubtless prove a source of much gratification to motordom at large that in such'_ circumstances there areé’mo material changes con- templated in Lincoln policies as far a8 concerna motor car purchasers. There have been a number of Le- land-built cars in the Ford private garages for some years t, and in view of the high esteem in which the Fords have always held Leland prac- tices and ideals,. it could hardly be expected that they would have any inclination to do ' otherwise than thoroughly endorse the preservation of the quality standards upon which the Lincoln car was founded. In fact both Mr. Ford and Mr. Le- land have repeatedly gone on record tHat it will be their purpose unalter- ably to maintain the established Le- land standards. 2 i It has also been stated by the same men that there will bé no disposition to force production beyond the dic- tates of sound judgment. It is ex- pected, however, that'new conditions will_effect certain benefits which can be pasacd along to purchasers in the way' of ‘more attractive prices. mong'the other advantages which sre expected to be derived from the Leland-Ford affiliation, it is seen that the new Lincolg company will be as- sured of abundant funds to meet the needs of ‘legitimate and - judicious expansion, 1Y ~ g g he C.

Did you ever find a worm away in the core of an apple when there wasn't ony eign of a hole on the outside to show where it got in? Well in the &pring, says the Ave Maria, when the trees ave all in blossom and Mok their loveliest, @ little moth slippent out of its chrysalis and flew among the blos- soms. Then, when the petals of tite flowers had fallen, the moth luid aw egz 1o the upturned cup made by thp five points of the calyx. In n shorf time the tiny egg hatched into a smalll worm, and the little worm bored its way Into the npple that was Just form- ing! and there it grew with the apple, meanwhile - feeding on it. When the apple falls to the ground, the worm gets out and.findy fts’ way, into the tree, where it spins a cocoon, from which another moth s hatched -the next spring, and-so.on.

These metals have proved their worth under the critical examination and severe tests-to which Harley- Davidson engineers put.them, and have been sanctioned as the. most suitable to. be embodied in the “World’s Champion Motorcycle.” And today, these self same materials 'are purchased by ‘expert metallurgists who insist that the quality must not vary. This fact emphasizes the built- in value of Harley-Davidson motorcy- cles. The design and close manufac- turing standards employed stand ‘out pre-eminently, the most minute care ’ being given to each part while in the vrocess of construction and assem- bly. . Finally, the finished machine un- dergoes a rigid test under the super- vision of expert mechanics whose spe- cial training fits them-to detect any possible imperfections: This combination, togcther with'a plant equipped with the finest, most modern menufacturing machinery, as- sures the purchaser of a Harley:-Da- vidson mutors that he is ‘gerring | the acme of quality and refinemeny— the best that money can buy. ’ The steadily increasing popuiarity which it manifests can only be attrib- i uted to the superior design, the high standards of Harley-Davidson work- manship and construction, the :ma- whing's unparalleled service to its rider and’ its consistency in‘-proving victorious in events of national and international scope. .
