K IE - S i- Si"' C 4 ' IT -i " 4 " What Mr. Hosford says: Welie Motor cars are the equal of any three thousand dollar car on the market today. In fact it is difficult to find equally as good parts in many machines of much higher price than the Velie. We have the kind of car that must appeal to the intelligent buyer who insists on knowing more about a car than merely whether it is well painted; furthermore, the car he buys must be guaranteed by a concern whose reputation for fair dealing is well established. That s why we s.ay Vehe Motor Cars are built for the man who stfy Kiiuiva uy limit ujiiu iwiuiu. : y What Mr. Huffman says: The Interstate which I have shown all week at the Auditorium met with more than usual favor. I con scientiously believe that it is without an equal. It is a mechanical masterpiece faultless and power f ul. It is graceful and has luxury enough. t The Hupmobilc is the greatest little car made recognized as the best from one end of the country to the other. The De Tamblc is a superior car of the lower priced car, while the Anhut "6" is in a class by itself. We are prepared to deliver the goods. I A . jr ' J 3 K k .
