F. P. SHE!
From Monday's Dally
Yesterday the home of Mrs. Sural'
A. Cotner was the scene of a very
pleasant gathering when the mem
bers of her family gathered to assist
her in the observance of her seventy-third
anniversary and the occa
sion of this anniversary will long be
very pleasantly remembered by all of
the members of the party.
The guest of honor has been a resi
dent here for a great many years and
is among the most highly esteemed
ladies in the community and has
reared to manhood and womanhood
a very large family of boys and girls
and a large number of whom with
their families were present at the
home yesterday, circumstances not
permitting all of the family to be
here for the day.
One of the chief features of the
day was the farnilv dinner nt rlif
j noon hour and the crowning feature
of which was the mammoth birth-
Ma unf wun us seventy-three can
dles glowing on it and which was
later cut and divided among the
members of the dinner party. The
cake was a real piece of art work
and was prepared by Earl Williams
of the Graham Cafe and the decora
tions of the cake were in fancy orna
mental frosting of red. white and
blue and the huge affair was one of
me nearest neauty to the eve as it
was placed on the table at the din
ner. Those attending the event were
Clarence C. Cotner. wife and son
Donald, George L Lloyd and wife, of
Murray; Frank Dill, wife and fami'v

family. Murray; Lee Cotner. Ed Cot
ner and wife. Albert Cotner and

Hazel of Fairbury.
the mysterious stranger in the motor industry
Does a difference in price indicate a difference in quality? Why is one
car priced 25 to 50 higher than another of the same quality?
The 4 questions that a buyer should ask when considering any car.
H
ERE are facts based on
world's engineering author
ity. If you have any inten
tion of buying an automobile, you
are urged to read them.
No "Price Class
There are only two kinds of auto
mobiles today. Economically pro
duced cars which give you more for
your money. And cars which are not,
and give you less.
Price does not indicate intrinsic
worth. But an individual
maker's cost of produc
tion. Hence two cars may
show a price difference
of $400 to $1,200 and
more. And 6e of the
same quality.
The difference in price
simply shows that it cost
one maker more to make
this car than the other.
Judging value on price,
this is folly. Price class
is a myth.
The average small manufacturer
whose volume will enable him to
build only 5,000 bodies from a set of
dies in the same time in which Stude
baker builds 50,000 has to charge
each body $20 for die cost. The dif
ference of $18 is in the price but not
in the body. The customer pays it
but he gets nothing tangible for it.
It is one of the penalties of uneco
nomical manufacture.
Thus a car priced at $1,200 to $1,400
can be sold as low as $1045 when
produced economically in quantity.
Where the Difference
Comes in
Why Studebaker excels the
world in body building
ings than are used in any competitive
car, within $1,500 of its price.
We subject Studebaker cars to
30,000 inspections. That requires
1,200 men. All told over 70,000 hand
and machine operations are per
formed in the manufacture of a
Studebaker car. In so many opera
tions, though each one is small, there
is great opportunity for economy
and savings. 15 premium is paid
on many steels to insure Studebaker
specifications instead of "commer
cial run" used in cars many times
Studebaker price.
No finer car can be
built than the Studebaker
of today. Only famous
foreign cars and the most
costly of American cars,
compare.
Studebaker, producing
150,000 cars yearly, has
reduced engineering cost
to $3.33 per car.
This is based on a total
engineering cost of $500,
000 a year, which is the
least on which any man
ufacturer can maintain
an efficient engineering
department.
Thus a manufacturer producing
but 20,000 cars a year must add $25
per car for engineering, or eight
times as much as Studebaker.
Other fixed overheads have been
reduced proportionately. And these
influence Studebaker prices.
A set of body dies costs $100,000.
It will produce many thousand sets
of body stampings, each one as per
fect as though there were only a
dozen made.
By building 50.000 bodies from a
single set of dies, Studebaker reduces
the die cost per body to only $2.00.
For 72 years Studebaker has been a
builder of quality vehicles.
This historical tradition has been inbred
in generation after generation of coach
makers. And the Indiana city of South
Bend is known as a world-Mecca of arti
sans of this craft.
In the modern $10,000,000 Studebaker
body plants, there are sons and fathers and
grandfathers working side by side. Their
religion is fine coach building. And this
is reflected in their work.
As fine body builders, Studebaker stands
supreme. No other maker has the experi
ence of Studebaker. No other the Stude
baker traditions to inspire him.
See a Studebaker
Then Decide
Buy no car until you've
seen a Studebaker. Go
over it, point for point.
Consult any unbiased ex
pert. Ask your banker.
And you will own a
Studebaker.

From Wednesday Dally
The Lenten parish dinner and ser
vices were held by the members of
the St. Luke's parish last evening at
the attractive home of Mr. and Mrs.
R. F. Patterson on North Sixth
street and attended by a very large
number of the membership of the
parish and a most delightful time
enjoyed.
In the dining room was the large
table with its snowy linen and silver
and china and the smaller tables us
ed were covered with the handsome
rainbow luncheon sets that were
very beautiful to the eye. The spring
flowers were also used in the decora
tions very effectively. The ladies of
the St. Mary's and St. Luke's Guilds
served a very tempting two course
ers of the service. The sermon of ooweis, win ieaa 10 enronic consupa
the evening was given by the Very
Rev. Stephen McGinley, dean of the
Holy Trinity cathedral of Omaha,
and was a plea for the Lenten ob
servances and the inspiration deriv
ed by the attendants from the ser
mon will be vital in their church
work in the future.
The services were most pleasing
and the members of the parish felt
very grateful for the delightful hos
pitality afforded them by Mr. and
Mrs. Patterson.
The next Lenten dinner will be
held on April 8th at the home of Dr.
and Mrs. Frank L. Cummins and at
that time the speaker will be Father
McMillan of the University Episco
pal church of Lincoln.
