And Fitzmaurice smilingly confirmed this statement. “There has been no trouble among us,” he said. This meant conscquently that the trio, . the fates willing, will sail down on New York within a few days more—perhaps Saturday, Sun- day or Monday—to a welcomo such as only that metropolis gives the famed.

It might get an owner that would not be just the right kind. Not that this Flying Cloud is conceited. But it knows how good it is. It knows that it can show even the twenty thousand dollar kind a few things about going from here to there in this country. So it wants an owner that will let it step out once in a while. There's a figure on the speedometer dial quite a ways above seventy that this Flying Cloud likes to flirt with now and thea. It wants an owner that likes to go places, with smart peoplg, and get there a little bit ahead of the rest. Now and then this Flying Cloud enjoys loitering down a side road bathed in summer’s smiles. A high hill just makes it chuckle, and it's still looking for a moun- tain that it can really call a hill. It doesn’t much care whether it’s on pavements or in ruts, whether the road is dry or slippery. Just see — whiter yet I did not scrub or boil this wash WOULDN'T believe it, if I didn’t see it with my own eyes. Such snowy, gleaming whiteness—just by soaking and rinsing! The secret must be in the suds. I could tell Rinso suds were different right away. So thick and creamy, my hands got lost in them! And how these suds last! Now I just let the wash soak while 1 do my shopping, ard then I rinse off suds and dirt together. It's mar- velous the way Rinso soaks out the dirt and stains. No hard rubbing, even at the grimiest cuffs and edges. Naturally this gentle way saves the clothes, and my hands, too. ‘Why, I don’t even need to bother about boiling things any more! Rinso is & real “no-work "’ soap—no wonder all my neighbors use it for washer and tub! Just ask your grocer for I The granulated sop that soaks clothes whiter In fact, it wdnts the right kind of owner. One who gets a lot of fun out of traveling and will know it when he drives a car that feels the same way. Perhaps you're the right kind of owner for this car. If so. you'll know it the minute you try it out. The more miles you cover, the more sure you'll be that this Reo Flying Cloud of 1929 is your car. But you'll have to get acquainted to find out. So we're inviting you to come down today, just to see if you're the kind of owner this Flying Cloud wants. REO MOTOR CAR.COMPANY, Lansing, Michigan REO FLYING CLOUDS KENNETHI M. SEARLE & CO. Cor.
