"The Car of the Hour"

Now upon its second triumphant year with a record of perfect scores . and highest economy honors in every contest it has entered, including some of the most gruelling reliability and endurance runs of the past season. The most recent championship performance of the Elgin Six was the establishing of a new record of 67 hours between Chicago and Miami, Florida, over some of the roughest, steepest mountain roads .and, through the heaviest sand and mud in the country. The Elgin improved velvet -acting clutch enables the Elgin Six to be started on high gear, under ordinary conditions, eliminating almost entirely the necessity of gear shifting and removing the last barrier to, die safe and easy driving of a motor car by women. The Elgin improved cantilever rear spring suspension, found only in Elgin cars, has set a new standard of motoring ease and comfort at high speed. You can safely drive an Elgin Six in comfort at 35 to 50 miles an hour over roads so rough that the average car is limited to half that speed. That this big, roomy, impressive quality car has been designed to sell at less than $1,000 is the most notable achievement of the year in motordom. $1,500 quality at $985 Can you afford to buy a small "cheap Six," when for a slight additional cost you can drive this Capable Six this big, roomy, impressive quality car, of supreme beauty and comfort? Can you afford to pay more than the Elgin Six price when this "Beauty of the Road" embodies in such full measure all the quality, style and coxa fort desired by the discriminating motorist? - ELGIN MOTOR CAR CORPORATION, CHICAGO, U. S. A.'
