Buick First Again in Yellowstone Park! Each year since Yellowstone Park was opened to automobile travel by the U. S. Government, more Buicks have made this difficult trip than any other car excepting Ford. The figures for 1921, just announced, show 1,871 Buicks passed through the Park during that season, 412 more than any other make. The Yellowstone Park tour calls for every ounce of car performance—miles away from service for days at a time—the car must never fail. And that is why each year an increasing number of Park tourists depend on Buick. Buick cars measure up to Buick reputation. @ ras By & system of gears connected With the steering columm as shown, the searchlight may be made to turn | with the front wheels.
