Lighting System; ' which .is the. best mechanically and the most completely worked out in.' all Its details. In this connection. It is essential that consideration 1)e given the important fact that our Light ing System alone. 'costs as mucfh, if not more, than any one of a number of other lighting and starting systems combined. There are a number I of combined electric And starting systems on the market, the adoption of any one by us : would, have been a matter of expediency, only only enabling us to advertise Electric Starting, as well as Electric Lighting, but without offering to the customer the highest development of these features, as we feel they should be Incorporated in the Locomobile. No such combined system met our tests. Only by adopting one highly spe cialised Lighting system could we assure ourselves that we had the high est efficiency in that direction; only by-selecting, the best Electric Start er could we get superiority in that field. No other car has Electric Lighting so fully developed as in the Locomobile. In no other car it the combination of Electric Lighting and Starting handled in the same effi cient way. 5 i 1913 Gars Now In Stock Demonstrations Cheerfully Given i V "I f -v .5 i K : TUT J .

America -expresses confidence that the high anticipations of its f patrons will have full realization. Having attained sol material a lead;as to mechanical practice several years ago, the manufacturers have been able to devote unusual attention to features of luxury and comfort. The advantages of this strong position are reflected to theutmost in the 1913 models. Embodied in them is the highest attained serviceability with refinement that the motor car industry will have to offer. For 1913 th( y air built in thm sizes: thelftng stroke Six "48," developing S2 Imrse-puwer ; tbe JJttle Six, developing over (0 liorse-iK)wer, and tlie "30" four cylinder, developing 41 horse power. The Six "48" will be equipped with touring, torpedo, roadster, limousine and lan daulet Ixnlies. . " . The Little Six will include all the above with the addition of Kerlines. The "30" four cylinder will be in touring, torjiedo and roadster models. In addition to new body designs which express unique ideas, as well as the latest fcatuns of American and European practice, these cars include every feature contributive to the com fort and convenience of the passengers or the driver. The long, sweeping straight line ImmUcs are united to the bonnet by a well-shapl curved dash. The body surfaces arc unmarred and unbroken by hinges or handles. Long wheel base, perfect spring suspension, absolute balance and ten-inch upholstery assure the maximum of comfort. (Jlass fronts, integral with the curved dash, dynamos supplying all lights, air com pressors for inflating the tire, electric starter for starting the motor, all are factors for convenience. The equipment includes quick detachable, demountable rims. THE SIX "48" TOURING CAR Snm Pa.xM'niriTs Ilieht-haiid Inside Drno ;ind Control.
