"IP IT WERE MADE IN ENGLAND " Sixty-five years ago two blacksmiths started business in a small smithy in Indiana. Their capital amounted to .£l3. Their business policy was to giro the beat of quality in their work at tho lowest possible price consistent with quality. To-day the business started bv those two blacksmiths is known as tho Studebaker Corporation of America. It has a capital of eight millions sterling, and the value of its annual fnctory output of automobiles is thirteen millions sterling, in addition to a, big business in horse-drawn vehicles. The business policy of the Studebakers is the secret of their success, and tho new Model 35 h.p. Studebaker car which is creating 6uch interest among motorists in New Zealand is a striking example of that policy of "best value for tho lowest price." Thoso who have seen the new §5 h.p. Studebaker say:—"lf this car were made in England its retail price in New Zealand would not be under .£750." A. powerful light car, embodying the best and latest English practice in every detail of its construction, with electric, solf-starter and electric lamps, and a hundred other little luxuries and refinements, for .£195, including nil "extras," is something to startle New Zealand motorists. That the wonderful valuo of (ho Studebaker is appreciated is proved by the fact that we have pold over twenty during the past week. The 25 h.p. Studebaker is another car of wonderful value. If it came from England we could not sell it under X.IOO, but its price is .£1195, all completo.
