H. BASSETT. (President Buick Motor Company) Much has been said and written regarding the “‘passing’ of the tour- ing car and roadster because of the increasing popularity of closed auto- mibles. Analysis of conditions, how- ever, shows that such {deas are only ased on hastily arrived at conclu- sions, and that open cars will con- tinue to be made and sold for many years. There will always be a. certain group of automobile users which will prefer the open car. In addition the number of families that own two or more cars {s constantly increasing and in many cases one or more of the models owned is a touring or roadster. Then too, there are sec- tions of our country where climatic conditions make the open car the popular model. And, lastly, the very popularity of the closed car will cre- ate a demand for open cars, for there is a class of persons who will always buy something different from that which {s enpoying the fancy of the majority. Automobile companies that have successfully merchandised open cars in the past will find a continued de- mand. The Buick Motor company rec- ognizes this condition and has in- cluded six open models in the sixteen different body types which make up the standard and master Buick lines that have just been introduced. Four of these bodies have been constructed with the latest design permanent tops, which permit of quick and easy attachment of winter enclosures for the benefit of those who desire the airy freedom of an open car in sum- mer and snug comfort’ during the cold weather. Permanent tops are on the road ster and touring models in both mas- ter and standard etx lines. The mas- ter six touring and roadster aye fin ished in Buckingham gray Duco with red striping under the moulding, which extends around the car from the radiator shell, and also on the wheel spokes and louvers. The stand ard six open models have Buick gray Duco finish, also with red striping. The two master six sport models —touring and roadster—are finished in Buick blue with orange striping. “They are upholstered in real Spanish leather in a harmonizing shade of blue, These have tops that can be quickly lowered.

How ‘Auto Fires Start Gasoline is a highly inflammable liquid and is cially dangerous’ fwhen vaporized. pew owners realize how ately, a flame fr {vaporized gasoline will spread, and once a gasoline fire starts it is a very qiffcult matter to stop it It is a good idea to learn how to deal with a fire, but it is much more helpful to know what pre- jcautions should be used to prevent fires occurring at all. A fire on an automobile is generally the result of neglect or care- Hessness. Everyone knows that gasoline is a paply inflammable liquid! and is especialfy dangerous when vaporized. Gasoline vapor is heavier than air and for this reason if any is spilt when filling the tank thei vapor given off floats just above the ground. If a lighted match is carelessly thrown near a spot where gasoline is spilt, it imm ly sets fire to it and the next thing you notice is a sheet of flame and your car is on fire. |. There is an old motto: “Don't play with fire,” and this applies! (with special force in connection with an automobile. When your! gasoline tank is being filled, extinguish your cigarette and STOP the lengine. When filling a tank that is located under the seat, be especially \careful not.to spill any gasoline on the floor mat. Many fires joceurred from this cause after the driver bas lighted his cigarette and \thrown the match on the floor. ‘ | Itis avery d; ous practice to use gasolene for cleaning grease off the engine or in fact ANY part) of a car. Gasoline will certainly cut the grease quicier than kero-| sene and for this reason is used. It is safer, however, to use| kerosene exclusively for cleaning! The practice of using gasoline for cleaning when the car is in the garage is especially dangerous, for in this.case the vapor hangs about) for a long time and the lighted) match will quickly start a fire. Another very common camse of} fires on automobiles is desing car- buretor or gasoline joints. If leak occurs under the hood gasoline drips down and collects) jin the pan under the engine. Suppose your carburetor pops back or; you have an ignition wire that is shorting now and again, it is an imatter for this gasoline to catch fire and the next thing you notice is flames coming from under the hood. A red hot exhaust will also set fire to any surplus gasoline vapor under the . Most! ns under the engine have holes that allow any liquid to drain off! ut in course of time dirt and grit collect and fill up these holes. It is a idea to take off the pan once or twice a season and| scrape it cdzan, so that in the event USE GASOLINE TO REMOVE GREASE AND DIRT—-USE KEROSENE fase Tse pesca ing, 1 me jaa away Gnmediately.

Following the regular semi-annual directors’ meeting of Studebaker held at South Bend on July 31, new Studebaker prices were announced effective August 1. Greatly, in- creased sales, due to the widespread public approval of: Studebaker’s an- nouncement in June that “yearly models” would be discontinued, has contributed production economies: directly responsible for the price re- ductions. A report of the finances of the corporation aa revealed at the direc tors’ meeting showed that sales for the second quarter of 1925 were the largest in history, representing an increase of 48 per cent over the cor- responding period of 1924. Although complete figures for July are not available it 1s understood that July sales will be at least 200 per cent greater than in 1924. As a result of Studebaker fac- tories working at peak capacity through May, June and July— months when the volume of business Senerally tapers off—productions costs have been lowered. Profits have automatically increased. In keeping with the policy of exacting only a fair profit on its cars, the management accordingly. decided on the last day of July that savings effected through increased produc- tion should be immediately passed on to the public in the form of new prices to become effective August 1. Aside from the inevitable econo- mies effected through large scale Production, Studebaker has been able to accomplish many savings in the manufacture of its cars through making every vital part in {ts own Plants, With the exception of Ford this concern {s the only manufac- turer making in its own plants all bodies, engines, clutches, differen- tals, steering gears, springs, axles, Bear sets, gray iron castii and drop forgings. Thus Studebaker in the fine car field and Ford in the low-priced field save the profits of outside body and parts makers. This” advantage has enabled Stude- baker to keep the price of {ts cars consistently low and pass on to the purchaser the maximtim values. pal ie desiccs tii FORD WOULD PUT ONE OF ils TRACTORS ON EVERY FARM INU, 9, A financial plan to enable farmers to own a Fordson tractor, Oliver plow and harrow and other equly ment without any inconvenience has been worked out bythe Tractor, Im plement and Equipment Distribu tors, according to word received b.
