TRIBUTE TO MAKERS
OF MODERN CARS
Tells Why Every One Should Strive
to Own a Car Suited to
One's Means
Some time ago the New York Ameri
can published one of the ablest testi
monials for the motor vehicle that has
ever.been written:
"The man who makes a good auto
mobile, efficient and cheap for the
crowd, or magnificent and dear for
the few, is a benefactor of humanity.
Great events come upon us so quickly
that we scarcely see their meaning.
Few of us realize that the automobile
has done for the body of man what the
telephone has done for his voice. The
one problem of life Is speed. He who
can move, think and act quickly
doubles his life. The automobile
doubles the life and power of the busy
man. To be without an automobile,
if you can possible manage to get one
is to be out of date, cousin to the do
do, and brother to the ox. The strug
gle for speed has been the story of
mankind. The telephone conquered
distance for the voice, the telegraph
conquered distance for the written
message. The automobile enables man
to move about as rapidly as the bird
—and now, the intelligent citizen is
asking himself, 'What machine shall
I buy'?
"Let us give some reasons why eve
ry man who can should buy some ma
chine —big, snorting and expensive, if
h§ can afford it, smaller, less expen
sive. but the greatest possible addition
to life, if the big one is too costly. The
automobile means economy. All that
a man has In this life is time, and
very little of that. The automobilb
adds to the power of an hour, adds
hours to a man's day, doubles, triples
and quadruples his efficiency. And
this does not apply only to the doctor,
with his many visits, or to the fash
ionable women rushed in nine direc
tions by calling, shopping and other
pleasures and duties. The automobile
will do more for a small plumber than
for a man of leisure. It will do more
for a 4 butcher, small contractor, or
other little business men than for the
richest citizen. Because the little man
is more in need of the machine that
means more work accomplished.
"Long ago, when only 'dudes,' so
called, rode bicycles, the envious scat
tered tacks and broken glass along the
roads. We used to tell the workers
then that one day they would be the
chief users of the bicycle—and that
statement Is now fact. We tell the
workers to-day that the time is com
ing when to them more than to any
other class the cheap automobile or
motorcvcle car will be the greatest
blessing, another "freeing of the serfs.'
A workman now can hardly believe
that he ever opposed the bicycle as the
amusement of the rich—but he did
that. In a short time it will be un
believable that vexatious laws and
innumerable annoyances would have
been devised to harass those engaged
in developing the automobile. You can
get a car now that will carry five n>en
eighteen miles for twenty cents' worth
of gasoline. The man who writes this,
with fifty horses standing in the stable
on his farm, bought two automobiles
to send farm hands to their work. It
was foolish waste to let the men jog
slowly behind farm horses, and the
machines cost less than the horses,
even on a farm that produces the
horses' food and does not yield gaso
line.
"The day is here when the smallest
tradesman, builder, skilled mechanic,
can own an automobile economically.
Let a man care for his own machine
an Intelligent boy of 15 can do It. Let
the owner consider that he Is using his
valuable property as he drives. Then
the life of a machine low In price Is
almost without limit. And the owner
ship of a car, far from being an ex
travagance, Is an actual economy. It
saves time and makes money during
the week. It gives happiness to the
entire family on Sunday. It is a health
ful, useful pleasure that discourages
pleasures that are harmful. The money
that has carried hundreds of thou
sands of men no further than the cor
ner salopn would take the whole fam
ily out In the country on Sunday.
Whisky and whisky sellers hate the
automobile, and well they may.
"The little man's car 1b here al
ready. The workman's car is not far
away. Within Ave years the tin din
ner-pall will rest beside the cjutch and
the brake at the bottom of a small
car. The wife will drive her husband
to work—take her children to school,
do her marketing no longer tied
down to the prices of the nearest store.
Many a weary workman at the day's
end, seeing the birds flying so easily
to their nests, has wished that he
too, had wings. Now the automobile
will actually give him wings. The
day's end need no longer mean a weary
tramp across country roads, or a long
journey, • hanging to a strap in the
city street cars. One workman will
take his friend home one day. The
friend will do the same next day. All
workers thus relieved of drudgery will
have for their employers an added
value greater than the cost of the
gasoline. First we had the 'white
ghost' and the 'red devil,' toys for rich
young men. Then we had beautiful,
quiet expensive limousines, ideal for
nervous old ladies. Then we got the
wonderful machines of low price,
with the reach of the citizens of small
means. Soon we shall have the work
man's car—then the automobile job
will be complete.
NEW TYPE TRUCK FOR MILLS DEL IVERY
Cadillac Coupe Scores
Perfect in Reliability
That even a reliability' run In these
days of mechanical achievement can
reveal something new and unusual was
demonstrated at the recent contest
held by the Chicago Athletic Associa
tion and the Chicago Automobile club
In a run to Peoria, 111., and back. By
long odds the most discussed feature
of the contest was the winning of a
perfect score by a Cadillac coupe, the
only car of that type in the event.
Among the contestants was George
B. Dryden, a director in the C. A. A.
Hr. Dryden had never been in a relia
bility run, and, doubtful of his ability
to handle a car under such conditions
was about to decline to participate. At
the last moment, however, he elected
to pilot his Cadillac coupe.
So well did he drive so satisfac
torily did his coupe perform, that Mr.
Drdyen not only earned a clean score,
but satisfied himself that his coupe
was as fast as any of the machines in
the run, and as economical as many a
smaller and lighter car. Moreover, on
the return from Peoria. Mr. Dryden
had the laugh on the other contestants
because of the hard rain that fell.
At the banquet following the run,
Mr. Dryden was voted a medal as the
only man who had ever driven a coupe
to victory in a two-day reliability con
test traversing 320 milees.
MOVING DA Y IN GOLDFIELD, NEVADA
Houses to rent are scarce in Tonopah, Nev., so when the moving fever
hits the residents of nearby towns they not only move their household
goods but their houses as well.
The Illustration shows a Reo two-ton truck moving a house and
household effects from Goldfield to Tonopah.
The road between these two towns is none too good and in places the
grade is very steep, but the Reo model J proved equal to all the difficulties
of the occasion.

National Company Sends
John Aitken to Europe
John Aitken, a member of thq ex
perimental department of the National
Motor Vehicle company of Indian
apolis is being sent to Europe by his
firm to visit the foreign automobile
factories and to witness the Grand
Prix race. Aitken has every year
bathed in the limelight at the time of
the speedway races. For many years
he was a driver in races for the Na
tional company, and then managed
the National's race teams, most note
worthy being the 1912 5 00-mlle race
when the National won. Last year
Aitken managed the Peugeot team at
the Speedway and brought Jules Goux
home an easy winner. This year he
managed the Peugeot team again. He
sails about the twentieth and will be
the guest of Jules Goux while In
Paris. The Frenchmen became greatly
attached to Aitken and have been per
sistent in their invitations. Aitken says
that a car will be piaced at his dis
posal with an English speaking chauf
feur. He says that he will visit the
various automobile factories and will
attend the Grand Prix race. It is said
that Atiken will manage the Peugeot
team in the Grand Prix. It is known
also that when the Frenchmen were
here they invited Aitken to drive one
of their machines in this race which
is the annual speed classic of Eu
rope.
TO THE PUBLIC:-
After consulting with many REO dealers, we wish to
announce that our policy is to let well enough alone.
There will be no change in the REO model, or the REO
price this season.
Some of the reasons are these:
In the past five years, during which our engineers
have confined themselves to this model, the car has been
brought to perfection. We have made changes as needed.
Again and again important improvements have been
added in mid-season. A larger cylinder bore was
adopted last winter without even announcing it to you.
No changes can be made in the way of improvements
now.
We reduced the price last year by $220.* In this way
we anticipated all the economies of larger sale and
output.
1 he demand for REO the Fifth—which continues to
break all records—show that buyers are satisfied. In this
car to-day they ar£ getting the best value that will ever
be offered, we think.
Any change now would mean six weeks of delay, right
in the best selling season. For the Summer and Fall,
under present conditions, have as good selling months as
the Spring. And this delay—this loss of sales—could
bring no improvement of any great value to anyone.
\\ e are not going to stand still. We shall keep on, as,
always, bettering this car as fast as we find a way. And
we shall bring out new models. Rut we shall brin& them
out in mid-winter—right before Show time—when they
should come out. We do not want people who buy in
June to find in July a new model or price. Such a policy
in time would discourage Sping buying.
We want you to join with us in keeping up the present
enthusiasm for REO the Fifth. Tell every prospect that
the car won t be changed. It is as good as we can make it.
Perhaps our rivals will offer some changes as usual.
They may in this way try to stir up new interest. But
they cannot offer more real value than we do. They can
make no changes which will make their cars more form
idable competitors. Reo the Fifth will hold the same
advantage as it has to-day—the same appeal as a super
car. And every month's production which goes out to
users places us in stronger position.
We shall continue our advertising in full force during
the Summer and Fall. A little later we will announce a
larger production—three new factory buildings. These
we figure, will add forty per cent, to our output. In an
advertising way we shall stand right with you in keep
ing cars moving at the present rate against any competi
tion, new model or old.
Base all your plans on these facts. Keep pushing the
same as ever. Let it be known that this model is stand
ard. That it represents, both in body and chassis, the
best that we know about car building'. And the price is
the lowest that ever was offered on a car built like this.
Send us your orders for Summer just as you did last
Spring.
Things are coming our way as never before. Let us
now all work to make the car seem stable, perfected and
Let buyers know that we give them our
best in it. That we haven't in mind anything newer or
better or lower in price. WE ARE, AS WE ADVER
TISE, BUILDING A CAR TO KEEP. Yet men know
that we shall not discredit it by any new announcement.
Very sincerely yours,

Hudson Six-40
1915
Ready Now
Why buy a 'l4 Model When the New HUDSON
will be Available in a Couple of Weeks?
The HUDSON Six-40 for 1914 was 3000 cars
oversold. Not in years has there been such a
new-car sensation. In lightness, beauty and price
not a quality car could compare with it.
And motor car buyers, almost as a unit, now
demand smooth-running Sixes, when they pay
more than SI2OO. At a higher price, Fours are
ridiculous.
NOW A BIGGER SENSATION
Now comes a new HUDSON Six-40 lighter
than last year, lower in price, and with 31 distinct im
provements. The HUDSON engineers—48 of them—
have spent a whole year on refinements. And on noth
ing else, for last year's model, in a mechanical way, was
perfect. •
To meet the demand the output has been trebled,
thus reducing the cost immensely. The new price wili
be the lowest price ever quoted on any type of hieh
grade car.
Come and discuss it with us. The first of the new
models arrive early next month. If you want it, we'll"
save one for you. To-day we can put you very close to
the top of the waiting list.
By all means don't at this time pay more than SI2OO
for any other car. You would surely regret it. We
promise you, in this new HUDSON Six-40, the greatest
new-season attraction.
