And it's not at all strange. Suppose you had a car that gave you 20 to 25 Miles to the gallon of gasoline. Would you talk about it? ' ' If your car delivered regularly 10,000 Miles and more to a set of tires wouldn't you take considerable satisfaction in it 'especially in these times? These figures are regular performances of Franklin Cars and owners, being human, become Franklin enthusiasts. Another reason is that waste today is unwarranted, and the Franklin doesn't' waste. The Five Passenger Touring Car, because of its Scientific Light Weight, its Flexible Construction and the splendid materials which go to its making, docs exactly what an automobile should do it delivers an efficient motor car service, economically. And the man who owns it knows he is conforming to the national need of economy.
