Dovls 35" -- The Quality Cop In the Davis, you will find a car of quality. It's a home product manufactured by home labor and capital There are a number of good reasons why this car is one for you to buy. When we, call it "the quality car," it's all that the phrase implies simple in design and construction, dependable at all times, as efficient as any higher price car, and has the appearance of a car twice its v price. The selling price as well as the cars themselves, represents essential value, for the Davis price probably contains more of labor and material and less of overhead' and productive expense than any cthcr hih grade car on the market. There are many individual- features that promote favorable comment ; it is the combination of excellence, all to be relied on at the same time, that is impcsdbb for the superiority of the Davis Motor Cars. Every item of material used undergoes a minute examination before being built into the cars and nothing faulty and imperfect is ever allowed to no cut.
Lock over the specifications and compare them with other cars of the same price. or higher, and you will be convinced that the Davis is the car to buy. .

This Is the car on which we have made the big sales. This is the car we will continue to selL The price is right, . ... ...... ......... . the quality is there no car ever manufactured has had the sale that the E. M.-P. had last year. In buying an E. M. F. you are getting a car manufactured-by the' largest manufacturers of vehicles in the; world the Studebakers. This Is the car we want you to see before deciding.' There Is no car manufactured that gives you as much for your money as in the E. M. P. "SO." ? ' " On road, hill, track and speedway, it is the car of proved strength, proved speed and durability. The par-1
chase of an E. M. F. "30" Touring Car at $1,000 makes an investment In comfort and satisfaction that is bound to pay dividends for years to come. ;No better car at the price. . ' THE NEW FLANDERS "20", positively and absolutely defies competition. It is manufactured by the same firm that makes the E. M. F. "30", so you know that it necessarily must be a good car. Every mechanical principle embod ' led in the new Flanders "20" is an achievement proved and guaranteed. For comfort, grace of line and general good looks there is no car sold at any. price which can claim superiority and none that in ease of operation, economy of fuel and maintenance is comparable to it. --"; ..
