! Sensational Engine Talk of the Town Creation of Vibrationless Motor bv Velie Engineers Ushers in New Era for Motorists. The triumph of Velie engineers over all others In building the first vibrationless motor has not only made the new 1922 Dyna-Motor equipped Velie the sensation of the automobile world, but It also marks a new era rn motoring. In Richmond, as when shown In New York and all other places, this amazing new motor has quickly become the talk of the town. There are two outstanding' reasons for this. Primarily, of course, the lmmeasureable superiority of a motor that is free from vibration that produces power with the quiet, perfectly balanced precision of a spinning dynamo, giving better service, greater oper'ating economy, longer motor life and more satisfaction in motoring than has ever before been .known. But the triumph of the Velie organization in creating this great motor is shared with the public As an exclusive Velie development, this new, vibrationless motor, which could well be placed in the highest priced cars on the market, goes into Velie cars exclusively. Their classification as moderately priced cars has been established and will be maintained, to the immense advantage of that clash of motor car purchasers. If you have not seen this remarkable Dyna-Motor equipped Velie, by all means see the display at 5 North Tenth street, Westcott Hotel Building. : 3 3 Interest on Your Savings Accounts I American Trust Company I I Main and 9th St. 1 1 i "r t ' "-.4 4t 1 .'
