requirements. "'
People demand less cear shifting, less weight, more power,
; more beauty and more luxury. ' " They want a car so competent
that it will deliver any reasonable speed without an effort V -
A car must float instead of labor over the roads. It must play
at its work, instead of work at its play. It must be sibnt, viora
tionless, and. while its motor must have Mgetaway," the brakes
must be more powerful, silent and absolutely equalized. On the
country roads there must be no swerving aboutno bouncing' of
ttiar,-wjieel 'U. " 4
No car can do all this, jrou may say. But before you make the
statement, take one ride in a Cole Eight , .
And best of all It carries the Cole nameplate, and back of that is '
the Cole guarantee of standardized perfection-- distinction of
