Q&e#eZferßuiek is aMan-sized Mohr Car ' ] Fl The 3'Pauengcr Country Club Model \ '/ — x' People appreciate a smart-driving, easily-handled, but full-sized, man-sized car. The Better Buick, for instance. Each Buick model seats its capacity of full-grown people—in relaxed ease—without cramped legs or necks. Tall people, especially, enjoy its extra head-room and leg-room. American men and women are above the average stature. And a smaller car than Buick is apt to be tight-fitting, low-ceilinged, crowded 1 . Drop in and try the ample, arm-chair comfort of a car that is right in size. Bring some of your sixfooter friends. You will find another big reason why Buick is so widely considered a better motor car—another reason why there are a million and more enthusiastic Buick owners. Or telephone, and we will send a Better Buick to your home or office for you to try. ■ BUICK MOTOR COMPANY, FLINT, MICH.
