No Wonder the Stearns

It is the combination of superior mechanical units, better construe
fon am I unexcelled beauty that makes the Stearns-Knight such a value
-a 100 per center'' from radiator to rear. Take, for instance:
Hie powerful Silent Knight motor that is recognized toda
as the supreme achievement in motor building.
The mechanical and electrical parts that stand for reli
ability under all conditions.
The superior construction that assures more riding com
fort. The ten distinct and unique body designs.
And you can readily realize why the Stearns-Knight offers such dollar-for-dollm-
value. We will gladly demonstrate the Stearns-Knight when
you dcsiie.
