The Sociable Clubster COMBINING as it does the companionableness of the roadster and the capacity of the touring car, the Lexington four-passenger Clubster is deservedly one of the most popular cars sold today. The Lexington Clubster is a hospitable car. It is roomy and comfortable, yet all of the occupants are brought into one delightful company without that sense of separation which is unavoidable in any touring car.

4 The Moore Multiole Exhaust System, the most valuable

single feature offered by any car made today, is an added reason for the LEXINGTON Clubster. It means 22.8 more usable power with less gasoline, increased hillclimbing ability, less gear changing, more flexible power, less carbon trouble, and, because power is obtained at lower engine speeds, less vibration and wear and tear on engine and car. LEXINGTON beauty of line and finish are only exceeded by Lexington performance. You will be completely satisfied with your LEXINGTON, and not only, satisfied but delighted. Let us show you the Sociable Clubster now.
