(This is the first of a geries of automotive articles by Sparky, which will deal with the-outstand | ing features of the various auto- mobiles represented in Casper. Each week Sparky will drive a different machine, and each Sun- day will give readers of the Trib- une’s automobile section the fea- tures of that ‘particular machine which stand out prominently.) BY SPARK PLUG Outstanding among the maty fea- tures of the new Peerless Six, Now on display at the Nash ‘ Casper Motor Co., is its almost uncanny ability to ascend steep grades in high ge: Thoroughly skeptical but willing to be shown, Spar took the. wheel of the new Peerless Yast Tuesday, and slid -easily out of the Nash per salesroom in search of something that should prove the new car’s master. Lester ‘Bird of the Nash agency had previously as- sured Sparky that the new | Six would negotiate Fifth Street hill in high gear from a standing start in high at ‘the foot of the hill. At Witth and Grant streets the Peerless was brought to a dead stop but allowed to remain tn high gear. The start in high was smoothly made and with no seeming effort on the part of the motor. The machine gathered speed and topped the hill at 15 miles an hour. The Peerless was then returned to Lincoln and Fifth streets. at the very foot of the direct up grade, turned around t the intersection and again put over the top of the hill without a change of gear. It ‘was truly a remarkable demonstration of pull- ing power. Out past the Standar@ refinery glided the new six, its motor running smoothly and silently. The car was throttled down in high qear to one mile per hour without tho least effort The Peerless put the first hill on the Salt Creek road behind her at 50 miles per hour: without a particle of vibration. That she had plenty of reserve speed at the time might easily be determined by the fact that the throttle was only impressed to. an approximate half way. . The new Peerless Six fs a beaut!- ful chars powerful, It is equipped with four wheel hydraulle brakes which make it handle swiftly and surely. Jehandles as easily in traffic as machine Sparky has ever driven, which of course makes it an ideal ladies’ machine. It has plenty of power and speed for the man who “drives to get there,” and in short it js rapidly demonstrating to Casper that it is the Peerless Mo- tor Car Co's finest product.

I knew, long before that, that there is no better gasoline made than Conoco but somehow I let a new garage man put several gallons of some ‘unknown gasoline’ in my tank the night before. Of course, I had trouble the next morning—couldn’t get started, and couldn’t get up.any speed and stalled on the first hill! When Idid get to the club, peevish and out-of-sorts, the other fellows were at the first tee, all dressed and yelling for me to hurry. ; "Tt is not surprising that I was completely off my game is it?, I will never forget what a duffer I was that day. but when I think of the valuable lesson learned about gasoline ‘and all the grief I have escaped since by demanding Conoco every time, I am glad it happened. We do a lot of mountain driv- ing and I like to hunt and fish and I find it is always easy to getit and ITamsure that sticking to Conocohas helped us avoida number of things which would have spoiled many pleasant trips.” There is more power in Conoco than there can possibly be in any lighter gasoline and Conoco is balanced—so proportioned that the average motor can utilize every particle of its power. Conoco's range of volatility more than meets the U. S. Government specifications. Its chain of boiling points iscomplete and its power-chain is uniform and unbroken. The superior quality of Conoco isthe same, year in and year out, wherever you buy it.
