Now more than ever before are women turning to e Willys-Knight as tho {deal ca r woman drivers, Willys-Overland dealers report, as sales for the four-cylinder Willys- Knight models continue to climb during the summer months, Unfilled orders at the Willys- Overland factory indicate that deal- ers generally throughout the coun tiy are finding a distinct impetus.in the demand for the four-cylinder Willys-Knight line with the many feat ated which practi- cally puts this in a class by its elf, officials de e. Ever since the first four-cylinder car was built, manufacturers have spent thousands of dollars to elim- inate the gxcessive vibration found in the average motor. It was only through the introduction of the fa- mous Lanchester balancer, that In- genious dev of intermeshing gears iow found only ht fours, that a’ four- sylinder car wus introduced {n which the vibration of the motor was posl- tively ellminated. Enthusiastic own- ers write the factory that the smooth and even flow of power from the four-cylinder Willys-Knight engine, undisturbed by excessive motor vi. bration, makes driving these cars a pleasilre enj nly by drivers of multiple cylinder Especta: has this lack of disturb- ing vibration appealed to the femi- nine motorist, who In these ds are fast betaming almost as crit! of the car they drive as are the men folk, dealers declare. ““We now find,” writes one dealer, “that women no longer center their admiration only on the beautiful finish of the Willys: es incor cars, Knight, and the sumptuous interior finishings and equipment, but they actually want to drive the car, find smoothly the motor performs and how easy to out for themselves how handle fs their new car.” Women are now appreciating the ease of steering, the smooth action of shifting levers as never before, and the average woman driver of a Willys-Knight will inform her hus- band that the presence of eight Tim- ken bearings in the- steering and front axle units of this car present one reason why she prefers to han- dle the car, dealers say. UNIFORMITY IN RAIL SIGNALS (Continued From Page One) hundreds of lives each year," Pres!- dent Henry declared. “I believe,” he skid, “that the es- werked-out #andard system of signals, together the standard fixed warning and direction signs which the joint committee of the Sureau of Public roads and State Highway officials tablishment of a well with are developing would prove the most effective means, other than separat- ing the grades, of reducing the haz- ard to public safety.” The A,.A. A. program provides for four distinct phases of activity in regard to grade crossings, as fol- lows: First, standard signals for .traffic control and watchmen wherever pos- sible. Second, smoothening our the ap- proaches to crossings of motor vehic- les at crucial moments. Third, {mproving the physical con- dition of the actual crossing itself so as to prevent stalling of machines and to permit the operator to watch for approaching trains.

Se General i, S RELATED in a preceding A article, the test carried out by the Bureau of Standards at Washington showed that it took an average of a little over a half a second for a driver to change his foot from thé accelerator to” the brake, or that a car at thirty miles an hour traveled about twenty-two feet before the brakes were touched. In these tests cae driver apne expecting the si; to 5 ate to Bea ee ierclore ita it would take considerably longer to shift the foot from the accelerator to brake pedal if the driver was not waiting for the signal. , Many interesting facts were brought to light as a result of these tests; some of which may surprise car drivers but not students of psy chology. The most expert driving and the quickest reaction to the signal was not obtained from the college students tested, but from taxicab drivers, whose whole busi- ness was learning to drive well. The test showed that women reacted to as quickly as men. Quick ‘stopping is a combination whereby in co-operation with the railroads, grade crossings, at least the most dangerous of them, will be ultimately eliminated. President Henry severely criti- cized the attitude of those who con- tend that the elimination of cross- ings is so gigantic a problem that {t cannot be undertaken. —_— WYOMING GLUE MEET PENDING (Continued From Page One) present plans are carried to com- plete fruition.

Treber CKARD ANNOUNCES — Packard announces that already more than 15,000 new Packard owners have found in their cars the most notable improve- ments since the introduction of the electric starter. These improvementsare (1) the chassis lubricator, (2) the motor oil rectifier. Together they double the life of Packard cars. The Chassis Lubricator With the exception points that must be oiled by hand once every 10,000 miles, the chassis points re- quiring regular attention, 45 in all, may be oiled in less time than it takes to the horn. The pull of a plunger, a second of time, and part is bathed in oil. How. much would your car be worth today if it had no electric starter? How much will your car be worth two, three or four years . from today if it has no chassis lu- bricator and motor oil rectifier? of six These improvements, found to- gether only in Packard cars, are among the most important ever made in motor car design. While the electric starter in- creased the sale of cars—the chassis lubricator and the motor oil rectifier double the life of cars —cutting depreciation in half and making the Packard the most economical car in its class to own, to operate and to maintain. sound every The Motor Oil Rectifier The motor oil needs to be changed but once in every 2500 miles. bricating qualities are pre- served through a complete and automatic purification once every hour while the The lu- motor is running. The result—longer life of parts, lower costs for oil, and quietness of operation. First by ten years 01 more to protect the interests of owners through retaining standardized appearance and in offering no yearly models, Packard is now first to make it easily possible for owners to get out of their cars the long and desirable mileage life built into them. 328 South David St. JOE E.
