King "Foursome" Victoria
When iVV. L Kllljr. King distributor,
, Mys "She s some boat," you wonder
whether be is enthusing about a sub
marine chaser or a Carter lake cruiser,
but the next utterance, which dispels
all doubt from one's mind, takes your
thoughts far out of the war tone to
a vision of hill climbing and triple
carhuretion. The so-called boat is the
King Eight "Foursome.".
It is a clever looking job and it sure
, does perform. Even if It does take
time to ,';j0y ride" the automobile
editor it is sometimes necessary to
prove one's claims. .
Reserve power is the cardinal virtue
of the. "Foursome" and to prove it
two demonstrations are being made
which will t significant to Nebras

From a standing start on the near
est railroad track at the bottom of the
West Fsrnam hill, starting in "high,"

Mr. Kilborn was returning from a
tour of the entire west and stated that
his mission was merely to determine
the feeling among distributors regard

points and other places assured him
that so far as they were able to see
there was no let-up in business and

n additional order tucked in his
pocket ' . - .
Mr. Kilborn advises that the Lib

filled orders. While this does not
sound very large, as compared to the
statement of some of the extremely
producers, in view of the fact
that this is only the second year of
the Liberty car, it is a remarkable
showing. t
