Potomac 1742 OAKLAND P RO D U C T G E N, E-R A L M OT ORS When the clu (eorge Washington UPON George Washington's estate was a mill in which the wheat from his farm land was ground into flour of fine quality. The flour was placed in sacks upon which the name “George Washington” was stamped. And wherever this flour was offered for sale, housewives accepted it without question—without inispection. They knew that George Washington’s good name would never be placed on anything but the finest flour—that each sack would contain full measure and honest weight. Last August a new car was announced by The Pierce-Arrow Motor Car Company—a more moderate-sized and more moderate-priced com- panion to the large Pierce-Arrow. And just as the good housewives of long ago accepted George Washington's flour without doubt or question, so men have accepted this newest Pierce-Arrow product—the Series 80. They knowthat The Pierce- Arrow MotorCar Company would not allow its good name to be placed upon any car that did not fully meet the long-established standards of the company. That is why several hundred men placed orders for the Series 80 before the first cars were made—without even seeing the car or knowing its price. That is why many others ordered the Series 80 immediately following the first public an- nouncement—after seeing only a picture of the car and reading its description and price. That is why—though only six months old —the Series 80 is today serving several thou- sand owners. At the Automobile Show you may seé this latest Pierce-Arrow car —the Series 80. Both closed and open models—the finest product of Pierce-Arrow coach workers—are being shown in new and distinctive color combinations. But to fully appreciate what Pierce-Arrow buildingoffers you in this more moderate-priced car—what it means in comfort and in road performance—only a trip through city streets and over country highways will suffice. This trip may easily be arranged, either at the Automobile Show or through our salesrooms. We will gladly place a car at your disposal for the piirpose o oW ewo Runabout . $2895 7-Pass.
