THE BIG FACTOR.
OF SAFEEi"'Sri
Engineers have been building
safety into Picrcc-Arrow ars for
two decades. ''
Their nicely balanced weight
holds tKem to the road at any speed.
' The greater power of Dual Valves
and twin-spark ignition permits ac
celeration that takes them through
traffic Jams unscathed.
Their improved gear shift, al
most automatic in its actionin
vites use when needed and permits the shift at any speed.
Faithful brakes that grip and hold and a steering system'
that responds to the lightest toufch these are some of the
ways by which the Pierce-Arrow owner is safeguarded
sways4hat have been developed and improved as the need
has arisen. -
