Jealously Guarded The wealth of the U. S. mint is not more carefully guarded than is the quality of Studebaker vehicles. Not a stick of wood or piece of metal or a brushfull of paint goes into a that hasn’t passed a most rigid inspection. \jz Not an operation is performed, from the air drying of the wood to the application of the final coat of varnish, that escapes the eye of the inspector. The high standard of Studebaker vehicles is maintained by the most exacting system of inspection. If you are as hard to satisfy in regard to the material and workmanship of a vehicle as the Studebakers are, you will never buy any vehicle but a Studebaker. C. A. ROBERTS,
