Willys-Knight Demonstration At the Star Saturday.
Owing to the non-arrival of the films, the demonstration of the WiliysKnight car has been .postponed until Saturday, May 26th. The films will be shown in connection with the regular pictures both afternoon and livening at no extra charge. ■ The Knight-motored cars have always been the aristocrats of motordo mi The leading cars of Europe— Daimler of England, Panhard of France, Mercedes of Germany, Minerva. of Belgium—were first to adopt the Knight sleeve-valve motor. That was eight years ago. Today the leading cars in practically every foreign country are Knight-motored. They are the cars that are owned by the royal families and nobility of Europe—by people of wealth and position everywhere. And they coat from $4,000 to SB,OOO. Now there has been placed in reach of the many what ’before had been enjoyed by the few—a car with the smoothness, the power, the flexibility —the undeniable charm—of this Knight sleeve-valve motor. It remained for the Willys-Over-land Company, with its vast quantity production capacity, to build a car with the Knight motor at a price wihin the reach of all. The .pictures at the Star Saturday will show the Knight sleeve-valve motor, and the advantages of it ovu the poppet valve motor which is used in other cars. The local agent, Dr. J. Hansson, is bringing these pictures here and invites the public to see them. He will also be pleased to demonstrate the Willys-iKnight to prospective purchasers.
