This top was designed as an integral part of the car, although it is easily .detachable for summer driving, and is in entire keeping with the luxurious appearance of the Scripps-Booth line. The top fits closely to the body of the car with flush sides and will not rattle under the heaviest road strains. The windows are removable and the interior is finished in beautiful gray whipcord and a dome light adds to the attractiveness of the top. .

While these two men were closing Premier terri torial contracts. Homer McKee, Premier Advertising Director, has been spending the hot weather up to his neck in work, and it is thought that his approaching campaign, in behalf of the Aluminum Six. will be the most noteworthy ever planned and written by the author of "The Stand ardized Car." McKee says its lucky that he caught the summer months for the preparation of this campaign —because the days are longer. E. W. HurcL who will handle the Premier Service department, has laid all of his plans and is ready to see that the Premier cars which the new organization sells will stay sold. "We are going to operate the Premier ser vice department as a part of the sales department," says Service Director Hurd, "und I think the plan is logi cal. The sales department alone is in position to know what a customer is entitled to. and it will mean satisfied Premier owners to have the sales de partment see to their wants person ally." Earl G. Gunn, the Premier Chief Engineer, and the builder and design er of America's first aluminum mo tor, is improving the few days re maining to him before the actual de livery of demonstrators, to final touches on the car. "We know to a certainty that the car is all right," says Chief Engineer Gunn: "We have tested it without mercy on the hard est hills, on long grinds and under all reasonable conditions to which a mo tor car can be subjected, and I can say truthfully that the new Premier Aluminum is the most successful* car, mechanically, with whioh I have ever been connected. I have never seen a car with such pulling power at low speeds, and the magnetic gear shift is 100 per cent. From a standpoint of looks, it has no superior and few equals. This feature of the car is due entirely to Charles S. Crawford, our assistant chief engineer. I believe that Crawford knows more about putting art into a motor car than any man in the business. His most notable feat in the new Premier is the obtaining of as much room on a wheel base of 125i£ inches as has ever been pos sible heretofore on a wheel base of 13114 inches." The Premier demonstrators are now undergoing final road test and will be ready for shipment in Septem ber. In the meantime, materials are roll ing in and the big Indiana factory is speeding up to a point where shortly it will be employing two thousand men. Beginning with October a straight day and night schedule throughout the entire factory is plan ned. Already certain departments are running a double shift.

Gsrsgg Auto Dealer Must Attend to Wants to the Car Owner "The best definition of service, as applied to my automobile business, is the making of satisfied users," said Carl Hanson, of the Overland-Harris burg Co. "The average car owner demands nothing more than courteous treat ment from the man of whom he pur chases his machine and if his needs are taken care of auickly and econo mically, he will in almost every case continue to l'avor the dealer with his patronage. "In many respects automobile ser vice is no different from that of ho tel service. A hotel may boast of the best chi. in the world, but if the ser vice is poor, the guests will soon be come dissatisfied and the chances are that the next time those people visit the town they will select a different place. The relations between car owner and dealer arc very much the f<ame. The owner will continue to do business with a dealer as long as he receives proper treatment at his hands, but if the dealer's interest in his cus tomer ends with the sale of a car he has little chance of selling him again when the time rolls around for the owner to invest in a new machine. "That Is why it is good business policy for the dealer to pay strict at tention to the wants of the car owner. And if a stranger drops in the sales room to inquire about some mechan ical feature of the car you are hand ling, make him feel before he leaves that it is a pleasure for you to render such service. A little attention and courtesy on your part may mean the sale of a car later on. "The same treatment should be ac corded .the car owner when he drives in for any needed repairs or replace ments. See that his wants are taken care of promptly and efficiently and that he is charged only a fair price for the service rendered. By doing so you will make of him a friend for life. Motorcycle Ambulance Accommodates Two Persons The recently perfected Indian Mo torcycle Ambulance which has just been announced by the Hendee Man ufacturing Company, of Springfield, Mass., is far in advance of any other vehicle of its kind yet produced. The stretcher carrier is of the dou ble decker type, accommodating two persons each trip. Regulation stretchers are used, but they are fitted with special pedestals which set into sections of the carrier frame where they are clamped to prevent slipping. The chassis on which is mounted the stretcher frame is of special reinforced construction with such features as vanadium steel springs, and adjustable tread. The power plant of the outfit is the latest Indian motorcycle with the fa mous Powerplus motor. The Power plus motor is one of the most won derful stock motors ever made, and its popularity among motorcyclists has increased by leaps and bounds since its first appearance. It is cap able of climbing the steepest of hills, and It has speed up to sixty miles per hour. Other features which make the Indian motorcycle most adaptable to ambulance work, are tfce Cradle Spring Frame, three speeds, starter, double controls, and heavy duty clutch. Another feature of the Indian* A mbulance is the First Aid Cabinet which is beneath the lowerstretcher on the chassis. This affords opportunity for the ambulance attendants to give dressings right on the battlefield with out the delay which would be occas 5-Passenger Touring $665 Roadster Type $5-10 Ensminger Motor Co.

It is the only motor in the world that improves with use. The longer it runs, the smoother, sweeter and more powerful it becomes. All motors are more or less good for the first three or four thousand miles. Then the wear, tear and friction start their deadly work and gradually eat their lives away. But the sliding sleeves of the Willys-Knight Motor get smoother and smoother and smoother. Each 1000 miles you run add to its economy and efficiency. No Willys-Knight Motor has ever worn out. No carbon troubles, no pounding and banging, U practically no gear shifting. Just a gentle operation that's as smooth as silk and as soft. No valve grinding. Carbon makes it run the smoother —the only motor in the world that makes an advantage of carbon. The Knight Motor is the power plant pre ferred by} Kings, Queens and royalty of Europe. They all use it. And now you can have the same thing—at a popular price. • No other car in the entire history of the auto mobile business ever attracted such inter • national attention. No other new car in the same price class ever sold so rapidly. Stop in and have a look at the Willys-Knight U motor. Drive it yourself and feel its won derful power, pep and flexibility. Once you own a Willys-Knight motored car, you'll never be content to drive anything else.

Sixty days ago the Jeffery company announced thai It had added to the four-cylinder model the same grace ful roll-edge feature that met with such widespread popularity on the Jeffery Six. In the course of redesign ing the Four's body there was soma slight change made in the radiator. Otherwise it is the same Four as be fore. The Jeffery Four occupies a dis tinctive position ir. the trade, it being the car in which the Jeffery engineers introduced to America the high-speed long-stroke, high efficiency type of motor. This species of motor met with instantaneous favor; and to-day Its praises are sung by all the lead int.' manufacturers in America. The roll-edge feature was added to satisfy the demands made by hun dreds of motor car buyers who saw and liked it on the Jeffery Six. All who saw the Six wanted its beautiful lines incorporated in the Four.
