If Yon Want A Snper-Si Get It -Now There Is f3o Certainty How Long Prompt Delivery Can Be Made You have read in the newspapers how, automobile production has been reduced. And you know how further curtailment is planned for the future. Increased uses for cars, because of reduced rail road facilities and other needs, keep up a demand that it will not be possible to fulfill much longer. Prices of some cars have already been advanced for the second time within the past six months.' It is likely that buyers will soon be offering pre miums for prompt delivery of Super-Sixes. This is the situation of the Super-Six. For two years it has been the most popular line car. More than 50,000 have been sold. No dealer has been able to accumulate stock during the past winter and the present demand exceeds the output. Hundreds of cars are being driven overland to points of sale because freight is so uncertain and buyers want prompt delivery. Today we can let you drive away in tcertain models. We might not be so fortunate tomorrow. We have been told our allotment for the coming months is to be much less than we had planned for. It is needless to tell you anything about Super-Six reliability. That quality is an accepted fact with all motorists. There are ten different model types There is one standard of reliability. v If you get a Super-Six it will serve ycu well throughout the period now before us, in which it may be impossible to get good new, reliable cars Seven Passenger Phaeton . . $1,950.00 Four Passenger Phaeton ... 2,050.00 F. 0.
