Hrei the DRUM-MAJOR: of e motor car puaradde F you know a leader when you meet one, you'll see the moment you try this spar- kling Buick why it’s called the out-in-front car of the year. You'll go for the way it goes for you— serene, steady, gallant as the figurehead on a buoyant ship—you're in for a thrill every time you put it into action. You handle a wheel that turns as easy as the pages of a book. You press the treadle —and sink inches deep back in the soft cushions with the swoop of its take-off. You click off miles by the score, the hun- dred—and no matter how far you range or v-hat gait you travel, you can’t get a whine 1t of that softly whispering engine! “"he answer is you've got a car that was IDENTIFIED The body of a woman found float- ing in an Ohio lake some time ago ntly pronounced to be that Robert, bons, and Hinote, Capt.

Tts gait is the level gait of a car built close to earth with enough bulk to hold it there. Its maneuverability is the quick mobility of a charger. Yet the crowning touch of its creators was none of these but the figures they succeeded in writing on its price tag. The hard-to-real- ize fact is that this great straight eight can be bought for less than some of today's sixes! There’s just one way to get the true picture of Buick’s standout value, and that’s to drive it yourself. See us soon and get your order in, and you'll enjoy a summer like you've dreamed of !
