Stephens Sales Show
Remarkable Increase
The Stephen. Salient Six at ill
new rediu'd price continues to Be
the sriuation of the line car market.
Public demand for tomrthing mmc
than mere motion is rrllerled in the
itrc.it increase in the Stephens sale
incc the price was reduced an addi
tional $150, making a total reduction
of $S(l5 in the Ut few months. This
demaiul i all the more impressive
brume of the acknowledged rank
of the Stephens car as the most ad
vanreil six-rylindrr car on the
market.
Further interest has been focused
on the Stephens Salient Six because
of this remarkable showing in the
Los Angelcs-Vosemite valley run
held on May JO. In 380 miles of
travel through mud and rain in
mountain country, climbing to elcva
lions of 6,100 feet, the Stephens wcyi
the honors in its quality and weight
class.
The Stephen bettered by five ton
miles the record it established in W)
when it won the sweepstakes and the
class prize in this greatest of econ
omy contests. The Stephens Salient
six this year averaged within a frac
tion of 2.) miles to the gallon.
This is regarded as convincing
proof of the extraordinary efficiency
and economy of the 57-horsepowcr
motor now in the sixth successive
year of its development at the Steph
ens Motor works.

sales of these lines there was a won
derful field in the way of service.
"The Ford lines are playing so im

'twenty-four-hour service' is really a
practical and necessary thing, he
said. Hannan-Udell-van Brunt,

Studebaker Bodies
Don't Rattle or Squeak
Studebaker bodies rest squarely on the chassis
frame not on the body sills.. The body and the
frame form a rigid unit that successfully resists
the rack of the road.
.Studebaker bodies are built in Studebaker shops
by men, many of whom have been building vehicle
bodies for Studebaker for upwards of 30 years
and their fathers before them. Studebaker has
been building fine bodies for seventy years.
Studebaker Special-Six bodies, because of their
quality and soundness, weigh more than those
of other cars around the Special-Six price. You
cannot skimp in material and build a body that
will not rattle. -
Freedom from rattle or squeak is just another
of the fine-car refinements that emphasize the
extra value of the Studebaker Special-Six.

from width ot 29 in the
front to 41' in the rear,
to that the sides of the
body fit perfectly without
overhang. Five cross
members prevent the dis
tortion that eventually
causes bodies to squeak.

Five-Passenger Coupe
Proves Popular Model
"The five-passenger coupe, jutt in
troduced last spring, hat become a
popular model," says T. D. Foley,
sales manager of the J. H. Hansen
Cadillac company. "The seating ar
rangement of this car is ideal for
those who have found other coupe
models too small to accommodate
the number of passengers they or
dinarily carry, and who prefer the
coupe to a four-door car."
Five-passenger coupes have been
purchased in Omaha by J. A. C. Ken
nedy, Arthur F. Mullen, S. E.
Schweitzer, A. D. Mallory, J. Clarke
Coit and Gould Dietz.
Maxwell in New
Hill Climb Feat
Car Carrying 10 Passengers
Scales Sterji Mountain
at Sedoua, Ariz.
"We are accuttomed to hearing of
treniiugly Impossible hill climbs
made simple by the good Maxwell,"
says W. S. Johnson, local Maxwell
dealer, "but one of tie most remark
able I have ever heard of is reported
from a small town and a big hill in
Ariiona.
"Schnebley hill, on the fringe of
th desert, overlooking Sedona, Ariz.,
it teven miles long. It it really a
tizeable mountain. The road to itt
summit it no more than a wagon
track, boulder strewn, curved and
double-curved, almost impassable. A
mighty tough climb for an automo
bile, you'll agree, under the most
favorable conditions. Yet, a good
Maxwell touring car reached the
summit of Schucbtry hill, carrying
10 passengers plus 100 pounds of wa
ter, which had been added to bring
the load up to 1,500 poujids.
"At tome points the hill reaches
a 30 per cent grade. In one spot,
where there is a pitch of this de
gree the party encountered deep,
sticky clay, placed in the road to re
pair dangerous washouts, but the
good Maxwell pressed through it all
and on to the crest.
"The descent, as well as the climb,
had to he made in low gear 14
miles of low speed driving and car
rying of super-excess load when most
cart would have groaned for mercy.
The membert of the party, all of
whom were prominent business mw
in Sedona and Jerome, Ariz., be
lieved that their driver had taken on
a job 1 gger than any car could well
handle, but after the performance
they were more than willing to fur
nish an affidavit giving their ac
count of the trip. The facts set down
here were taken from that docu
ment." Rubber fingers are excellent to
wear when slicing vegetables.

Cadillac Drivers to Get
Special Service Here
"Tourists driving through Omaha
receive most unusual service on
Cadillac cars," says J. H. Hansen
of the J. H. Hansen Cadillac com
pany. "I have toured myrelf. and
know how annoying it is to be forced
to wait for attention to the car, to
for the accommodation of touristt we
have detailed a special mechanic to
look after the needs of tourists who
come to our service station. It is
only rarely that a Cadillac tourist
wants more than a few minor adjust
ments, grease or oil, and we have ar
ranged to render this service instant
ly on tourist cars brought to us for
service."

previous half-year in Nash history.

the six reveal a gain over and above the best
previous quarter of 301

have inspired such a pronounced and positive
preference on the part of purchasers.

bodies; two, three, four, five, and seven passenger capacity; a price range from $965 to
$2390, f. o. b. factory.
