Tamagno Walked, but -His Carriag Bill Had to B Paid. Several years ago a tenor named Tamagno was engaged to come to America and slngt the Metropolitan Opera House, New York. He was paid $1,000 a night This Is a sum which would make many people willing to put up with small extra expenses, but not so Tamagno. Before leaving Eu rope he made a stipulation that be be furnished with a carriage to and from the opera house every night. This was Inserted in the contract When he arrived he found a carriage waiting at the pier. He rode uptown always at the expense of the opera company and took a look around. Then he decided to put jip at the Marl borough hotel, which happened to be only three short blocks from the Metro politan Opera House. Every time he sang he walked up to the opera house, refusing to take a carriage. He said he had Just as soon walk. When It came time for him to return to Europe he presented a bill for over $200 "for carriages to and from the opera." "But you didn't take a carriage." said the manager of the opera com pany. Tamagno bowed low and Invited the manager to look at the contract He repeated the same suggestion when ever anything was said about it The result of course, was that the $200 had to. be paid. He stood out for it with as much insistence as If he hadn't seen a dollar for a month, and all the time he was getting $1,000 a night Darkened at the Start.

I - are Biiil i on H onor i A Quiet Advertisement to Men Who Think ' - v E-M-F "3G" Touring Car, $1100 Amid the noise of much automobile advertisings we will speak quietly. We have something to say. We want men who think to listen. - V This is our story: We are building E-M-F "30" and Flanders "20" automobiles building 50,000 of of them this year and selling them to men of moderate means and also of large means, but all alike in one particular. They investigate, criticize, make comparisons and prove the value of what they buy. They think. y Years of honest dealing and skillful manufacture have given the name Studebaker a great pres tige. It stands, as a fine man does, for honor and square dealing. It has become a principle. Into every E-M-F "30" or Flanders "20" automobile built goes the reputation and integrity of that name and what it stands for. ' , We Build for You Think a minute. Ourcars are built with a single purpose. To furnish the most of automobile value in design, quality and everyday good service for the least of cost. We are not catering to . those few who buy where they can spend the most money, nor to any Indiscriminate purchaser. But we build for you, Mr. X (let us have your name and we will use it), who knows the worta of a dollar and who are looking for the best value, dollar given for dollar, spent on the market. - .- y - Yes, we could make cars cheaper. Others whose resources are smaller do so. We could make their cars and sell them for less money than they do. But what kind of a car would we offer to you then? A light fragile car to spin merrily for a time and then develop a spasm of weaknesses and lead an Invalid existence until discarded. To that we will not turn our hand. Our cars are Studebaker cars. M atenals Give Long Life In E-M-F "30" and Flanders "20" automobiles go the highest quality steels and .other materials it is possible to buy. The big mills make steer for us in accordance with our secret formulas. We build practically every part of the cars in our own plants. For instance, there are 252 drop forgings in every E-M-F "30," 226 in every Flanders "20." You will appreciate what thatx, means for strength. Incidentally, it means that we have our own forge plant it's a wonder, too or we couldn't afford it. Similarly, our foundry, our body plants, our steel stamping plant, our extensive laboratories all co-operate to give us heavy manufacturing advantages and economies. Put Studebaker honor and square dealing Into the best automobile factories in the world and what must the product be? Absolutely beyond question the best automobile values you can buy. That's what we sell you when you buy an E-M-F "30" or Flanders "20." . There are no freak features in either car. Every important part in their design and manufac ture is used by a big majority of the best cars built In them , you buy the sum of engineering skill, standardized. , - ecor ds rove It During the past summer stock Flanders "20" cars won: 1 World's Speedway Records 1-20 miles; 2 Most important hill climbs in the country in record-breaking time. 3 The severest reliability runs held In the United States. Further, a stock Flanders Flanders "20" did 1280 miles pioneering between Seattle, Wash., and Hazelton, B. C, over trails where in many places neither vehicle nor horse had been. It is a record. No other car last year approached it. " ' The E-M-F 'TJO" won 1st, 2nd and 3rd places in the Savannah Tledman Trophy race, the only event in which we entered the car. If you are interested in further details, ask any man who has driven an E-M-F "30" or knows the car. y A story of honest and square dealing. This Is the Studebaker story. It's, all true.
