HUPMQBILE SHOWS
MM REFINEMENTS
Fine Body Lines and More Power
and Longer Wheelbase
on New Car
E. C. Ensminger, distributor for the
Hupmobile In Central Pennsylvania re
ceived three of the new models yester
day. These are of the type referred
to In the official announcement pub
lished elsewhere in thiß paper.
The wheelbase of the new Hupmo
bile is 119 inches long, the result being
two Inches more leg rom in the front
compartment and seven inches In the
tonneau. Upholstery is full-tufted, and
the wider seats have the same com
fortable tilt that has characterized
Hup cars for three years.
Wheels are larger, tires being 34x4
inches, with non-skid treads regulur
equipment for the rear wheels. Other
regular equipment includes a Hup de
sign of one-man top, which when
raised attaches rigidly to fixed up
right of the windshield; new style top
cover that conceals the bows when the
top is laid back; raln-vislon wind
shield, with lower half adjustable for
ventilation of the front compartment;
special design headlights, with one bulb
which can be dimmed at will and spe
cial glass front, with the upper half
corrugated to kill the reflector glare;
special design tall light; electric horn,
demountable rims, spare rim and car
rier at the rear, license plate holders
in front and rear, robe and foot rails
in tonneau.
I An Increase in power is gained
through larger valves, an Increase In
the bore and a different shape com
bustion chamber. The Hupp Com
pany was one of the first American
, manufacturers to use the small bore,
'long stroke type of motor, and this is
continued, the bore being 3% inches
and the stroke 5% inches. The car
buretor. of the horizontal type, Is mov
ed to the right side of the motor, and
the gas carried through a passage be
tween the cylinders, assuring complete
vaporization. Storage battery Ignition,
with automatic spark advance, replaces
the magneto.
The motor is made nonstallable
through being connected at all times
by a silent chain with the Westing
house combined generator and start
ing motor, the single unit system hav
ing replaced the dual unit used for
1914. The voltage of the electrical
system Is Increased from to 12 volts.
Body sides are higher and the doors
are wider, having the handles inside
and flush with the door upholstery.
Easier riding is assured by the use
of longer front springs and long rear
springs of the semi-elliptic type.
The front axle is of the Elliott type,
with a slight castor elTect which
makes steering easier and gives the
wheels a tendency to resume a
straight course after turn has been
made. The rear axle remains the full
floating type, with a new design hous
ing which makes the gears more read
ily accessible.
Steering Is now from the left side,
with an 1-inch steering wheel, while
the gear change and hand brake levers
remain in the center.
The gasoline tank is increased in
capacity to sixteen gallons, with the
filler cap under the hod to avoid a
break In the smooth lines that sweep
back from the new shape radiator to
the windshield. The cowl board car
ries, In the center, the lighting and
ignition switches and the speedometer,
which are illuminated at night by a
small hooded electric light. The
switches are controlled by Yale locks.
Crowned fenders, without beading and
with flat edge, add their part to the
beauty of the new car's design.
The Model 82, which has just com
pleted Its third successful season, and
which has proved the most popular
model the Hupp Company has yet
produced. Is to be continued. Its char
acteristics are well known and are the
foundations on which the model K has
been designed. This was the firfrt
American car in which the small-bore,
long-stroke principle was applied and
was among the first few, if not the
very first, to adopt the stream-line
type of body. Along with these in
novations come others that have since
been widely adopted by manufacturers,
such as placing the gasoline tank in
the cowl of the dash, driving the mag
neto and camshaft with a single silent
chain, horn concealed under hood. etc.

answered Moran, as he threw down
his hammer and started toward a
bench. Moran missed one meal, last
night's supper. He returned to work
this morning.
When Moran went to work this
morning, he said he would remain
just long enough to find a way to get
his freedom. "And when lam gone,
you will never see me again," he
sighed.

Saxon Company Announces
Lowest Priced Delivery Car
The Saxon Motor Company has en
tered the light delivery field with the
lowest priced delivery car of standard
design ever produced. Of 400 pounds
carrying capacity (in addition to the
driver's weight), the Saxon delivery
car is priced at $395.
This new delivery car has such fea
tures of standard design as a power
ful 4-cyllnder motor, sliding, gear
transmission, dry plate clutch, shaft
drive and standard tread. The top of
the body is fitted with storm curtains
which may be lowered so as to protect
the load in Inclement weather. The
loading platform is low, making it
convenient for the driver to handle
goods.
Further conveniences are provided
by placing the Ignition switch and
carburetor adjustment on a leather
covered Instrument board in the dash,
and by making the spark control au
tomatic.
According to Lawrence Moore, di
rector of sales much attention has
been given by the Saxon engineers to
securing simplicity of control and
operation, so that inexperienced driv
ers may have no difficulty in operat
ing this vehicle.
"The new Saxon delivery car is de
signed for the thousands who need
motor delivery in their business, yet
who have always thought of motor de
livery cars as being expensive," says
Mr. Moore. "After a long period of
experimenting we have produced a de
livery car which costs no more than a
good horse and wagon and at the same
time has every advantage over horse
delivery, in point of distance covered,
new business possible to handle, mile
for mile economy, and dependability."
