Before Buying, Ask Yourself
Two Questions : "What Kind?
What Price?"

Mr. Householder, if you are thtnklnff of

opportunity to select wisely that Is par

Injr your electric doorbell.
The rars that are laid out In the exhibi
tion building are tho crenm skimmed from
the mo.torc.ir Industry. They represent tho
very latest and the very best thought anil
execution of the motorcar maker, from tho
finest and most costly combination of metal
and wood to tho product that Is evolved
from an endeavor to reduce tho price. Cars
of every prlco and type tho gamut from
the modest runabout to tho luxurious lim

It Is a well-known principle that. In
Cencrat, the wider the range of selection
tho more perfect tho selection will 13. That
principle la exemplified over and over again
In the motoring world by men who havo
obtained "Just the car" by beginning their
purchases with a jtnllrtoui visit or two to
an nutomobllo show, and, negatively, by
men who have rushed Into unsatisfactory
ownership with unwise haste and lack of
preparation. a ,
Scloctlon of, an nutomobllo should bo pre
ceded by a decision nt the outset of two
fundamental questions:
I-'Irst. Tho purpose.
Second. The price.
First, decide why you want an automo
bile, and, second, decldu what prlco you aru
going to pay.
Why do you want an automohile? In
It for business or for pleasure? Is It for
two persons or for a family of live or
even? Is It for town use or for tho
country?
- If It Is to be a business car that must
brave all kinds of weather, sleet this month
and a scorching sun that, get a closed car
that can bo opened at tho sides. If you
wish your cor to adapt itself to both sum

degree of style, get a convertible. If pleas-

ure Is tho object, a louring ear furnishes
the ready answer.
Tho number of persons for which tho car
hi Intended will dotcrmlne the seating ca
pacity. There Is n tendency to underesti
mate this. The nnclen't Joko (almost thlr
toen years old) about one's friends Increas
ing In number with the advent of one's mo
torcar Is based upon fact, ns aro most jests
of this nature Actually, thu owner of an
nutomobllo often llnds that his car Is not
largo enough for tho purpose for which ho
Intended It. Ho should, however, not go
to tho other extreme of Investing in a
ponderous seven-passenger machine which
has the only duty of taking him to Ids
olllco and his wife on n cross-country spin.
As there is a wldo iirlety from which to
select, due rcllcctlon should toad otic ailglu.
There are cars that arc more fitted than
others for line on the smooth Htieet of
cities. Ono of these should be the i Ikhi'i
if you do not contemplate driving mir
car off tho paved highways. Hut If your
business or pleasure will lend you to rugged
country and poor roads, nu nutomobllo of
light yet durahlo construction Is the car
for y :i Thought of lines and beauty
shoiil I play a minor part here.
The Hist important element of your car
buying having been disposed of, next con
sider tlie second Impurtaut element tho
price.
What can you afford lo pay for the car
that you want? This question perhaps is
of too intimate a nature to bo bruited
about publicly. It can bn answered best by
nn interview with your hank account, your
conscience and your wife.

Look for no car equaling this new
Hlipniobile, even in externals, for
twelve months to come. It was the
world's finest Four before. Now it is the

More than $750,000 spent for factory
improvements in 191G paved the way.
Wo needed larger production to spread
the cost of excess goodness. And new
factories to fjcl the production. Now
we have, them both. . And you get the
beauty-car a year ahead.

course. Nearly a riiillion dollars spent
in factory-saving and efficiency looked

A Wonder-Car in
Performance
The Ilupmobile has always been a
wonder-car in performance. Its su
premacy has not stopped short with su
premacy over all other Tours.
It wins every day against Sixes, blights
and Twelves- as any Ilupmobile dealer
will gladly show you.

The Glory of
Good Looks
The Ilupmobile will always be sold on
performance. Dealers will continue to
court competitive tests. Owners will
continue to boast of the superiority of
"their" car. But a new glory is added
the glory of extraordinary good looks
and social distinction.
The Show will not disclose an equal
value. Looking a year ahead, nothing
equals it in sight. You cannot buy wisely
unless you see The .New Ilupmobile.
