The pitcher is folded by merely dropping it on a concrete pavement. The pieces are then carefully gathered up and, 2re then carefully gathered up and I' AUTOMOTIVE BRIEFS.

Here is the most important announcement Reo — for this is the greatest value Reo has ever been — and this is, we believe, the most advanced model ever turned out by any factory. — this new light seven-passenger Touring Car will revolutionize design and set a new standard. — and finally—its price establishes a new low level of prices and creates a new standard of VéTucs. How has this been accomplished? — is your natural query. How, in a car whose over-all dimensions are but little longer than its predecessor, have we been able to obtain so much more seating room ? For this most desirable result the Reo builders have actually accomplished. How?— Why, by converting waste space into passenger capacity. You will have to see this new Reo to fully appreci- ciate the study, the ingenuity and the clever crafts- manship by which this has been accomplished. And when you do, your enthusiasm will know o How often have you wished for a car that would, on occasion, hold seven? Yet you would not buy a “‘seven,” because up to now, a car of cumbersome, unwieldly affair whose first cost was excessive and whose upkeep was prohibitively so. There has been a great need for a car of moderate length, of light weight and hence of reasonable that capacity was an overgrown, with plenty of power and room You have wished for such a car. Reo dealers have asked for such a car. Reo craftsmen have sought long and diligently for the solution, and striven unceasingly to ‘produce Finally, as a happy inspiration, it came. And ' now the long sought, ardently desired, is available to you —at a price that not only is with- in your reach but which conforms to your idea of values —*“The Gold Standard of Values.” It is logical that this advanced model should ema- nate from the Reo shops. Pioneering is natural to “The Reo Folk”. Reo has long been known as the “‘School Master” Reo Motor Car Company.

Phone N. 10-400 Just a few instances of Reo pioneering—all of which, received at first in doubt and some with derision, finally became the standard : — Side door entrance —One Lever, Center Control— Interlocked Clutch and Brake, Electric Starter: —Many methods and special machine tools that have revolutionized manufacturing were first used in the Reo shops. And Z; Reo was first to put pneumatic tires on a has revolutionized transportation and rendered practically every other type obsolete. That Speed Wagon—which “Fits Every Business" and dominates the field regardless of carrying ca- pacities—was just such an innovation as this. History will repeat itself. See this new Reo—you will be delighted with this light, snappy, flexible, beautiful 7-passenger car. Size makes it ideal to handle on narrow roads or streets, or parking in tight places. Upkeep and operation costs will be less than here- tofore have been possible in a car of 7-passenger capacity. Need we say this is a quality car? Being a Reo, it must be that. The very terms are synonymous. Built for the connoisseur — for that select Reo clientele who appreciate and demand the best— this Reo possesses all the inherent quality — the “hidden beauty’— for which the Reo product is famous. This is the handsomest touring model that ever came from the Reo shops. Body design conforms to the very latest mode. Long, slightly-curved lines sweep gracefully from radiator to extreme rear—edges beveled, doors flush. Power and speed and endurance radiate from this new Light Reo. Viewed from any angle, it looks the lithe, sinewy, swift running thing it is. A car of singular grace and irresistibly inviting. Ideal for its purpose—long, cross-country touring, camping—*‘Gypsying’’ with the entire family. In a word, this latest example of Reo pioneering is the epitome of Reo experience, and pride of two decades of Reo achievement. In confidence that it will meet with your enthusi- astic acclaim, we present for your approval this New Light 7-passenger Reo. THE TREW MOTOR CO. 14th Street at P Telephone Main 4173
