SATURDAY EVENING,
Two Haynes Cars Tested to
Determine Correct Design
"Along in the early part of the sum-
of 1A13." said A. G. Seiberling.
"The Haynca Automobile company,
Kokomo, Intl., completed two cars of
entirely different design and construc
tion from any car that had ever been
j built before in the Haynes factory.
One car was driven to the south west
i ern part of the country, down in Mexl
|oo and Arizona, while the other car
I went to the mountainous district of
Pennsylvania.
"The Haynes company has always
looked forward to each new season
with the idea of offering a better and
more economical oar—a car more
complete in every detail. At the same
time the price must be kept down
within reasonable limits. Every car
carrying the Haynes name plate must
have the quality of endurance. The
customers must be given the benefits
of the latest improvements.
"With these ideas in mind, these
two cars were set to work. All
through the hot summer months they
were kept plugging away. Every dif
ferent type of equipment was given
its turn on the cars under the grueling
tests. Each day of the test suggested
some new feature to be added or
some rearrangement to make a cer
t-in point more accessible.
"Both cars returned to the Kokomo
j factory in the middle of Febartiary.
'after having each completed over 80,-
'OOO miles. No time was lost in tear
ing down the cars, and systematically
Inspecting every part. All data, taken
during the months of the test were
compiled and carefully checked tip.
Comparative results gave the valuable
information that connected the theo
retical designing with the practical
results.
"These two cars were the forerun
ners of the Haynes 'Light Six.' The
design was correct. It withstood the
continued siege of tests that meant so
much concentrated wear. The Haynes
'Light Six' embodies the same design
and combines all the features of stur
diness and endurance of these first two
cars.
"To-day over 1,000 Haynes 'Light
Six' cars are in actual service and their
performance in the hands of the own
ers under all weather and road condi
tions has been consistently out of the
ordinary in all respects."
Nature of Diamonds
Determines Vindication
Since the publication of their "Fair-
List" prices the Diamond Tire people
have received many letters of com
mendation and many assurances from
; tire purchasers and dealers of con
i tinned confidence and anil good will.
| They have dicovered also that it is
I impossible to please everybody, no
matter ho.v sincere the effort to do so
may be. Not long ago there was re
ceived at the general offices of the
Diamond Tire company in Akron.
Ohio, a letter from an indignant man
In Chicago. He did not hesitate to
make use of strong language or to set
forth charges that were In no wise
complimentary.
"You say," he wrote, "that you have
got only one price on diamonds and
that people don't need to dicker none
■ when they go to buy your tires. That's
! a lie. or else one of your men are cut
jten prices. I never bought diamonds
, yet. but if you have different prices 1
| don't want them. For I would he
i sure to get the worst of it."
When he was asked for explicit In
formation concerning his charges and
for the name of the agent who was al
leged to be cutting prices the indig
nant gentleman who had "never
| bought diamonds yet" returned part
of a newspaper which contained the
first two or three lines of an adver-
I tisoment under the caption; "We Save
iou Money on Diamonds."
Investigation revealed the fact that
i the advertisement had been published
i! by a firm that sold jewelry on the in
stalment plan. A complete copy of
the paper, containing the advertise-

One Dealer Sells 52
Paige Sixes in a Week
Several of -the Paige dealers
throughout the country are signaliz
ing the success the new Paige Six
has won by a celebration they all
"The Paige Jubilee .Month." These
celebrations take on the character of
an "open house" reception held every
day and evening, with special decora
tions and other fixings, special exhi
bitions of the Paige line and other
features, and are much like an auto
mobile show in miniature. The in
terest and enthusiasm aroused has
been great and the result in actual
business done has been remarkable.
Chicago, for example, is now in
the midst of its Paige Jubilee and
has stirred up considerable excite
ment along automobile row, where
the Paige has been very much in evi
dence. Just what these jubilee cele-1
brations mean is fairly well indi- i
cated by the fact that during the tirst
week at Chicago fifty-two Paige Sixes
were sold at retail. Those sales were
made from a special allotment of 150
cars from the factory, as the Chicago
dealer had already disposed of more
than 200 Sixes ?ince January 1.
The fast selling of the Paige Six
and the increased demand aroused
by the jubilee celebrations explain '
why the Paige factory has been rifh
nlng and will continue to run night
and day in order to meet a demand
for cars which is taxing their large
' resources to the limit.
