Hobb's Garage on Calumet Avenue, Sells Fine 4 Auto Accessories The great outstanding feature of the Briscoe car handled by the Tlobbs Curate on Carroll street, near Calumet avenue. Hammond, is its motor. This won'.crful engine designed originally in France where gasoline costs tvt-n under r.ormal conJHU-ns are several times wha: Americans pay. Hence the basic Idea of the engineers from the start has been fuel economy. B! icoe engineers have devoted the best part of a decade, to minimizing the power losses due to friction and improper combustion which in the best of meters eat up a large part of the developed energy. Today their motor is the wonder of the industry and lt3 fame has spread round the world. At the same time they have worked out hundreds of short-cuts In manufacturingthe many parts which enter into the construction of a car. Ninety-nine per cent, of the parts of the Briscoe are mad-! in their own factory. Insuring lower cost, exact duplication of parts, greater production and dependability. The Hobbs parage also does repair work, backed by a real guarantee and hancles a complete line of accessories.
