Mr.lt. Cowpor. surgeondentist, of this city, demonstrates the land . n f service the Sfcidebaker vrdl give in tho ' hands of an owner who has had coa- ' paratively little driving experience. Mr. ' Coirper purchased a Studebaker cai from I us on November 30th last, and his first ; lengthy tour was one in the North Island during the.recent Christinas and New Year holidays. Concerning his expert* II cnbes on that tour, Mr. Cowper writes S "S a few lines to tell you how hor. i satisfied I am wrth mjMude. , bafercar. As you know, I took it away I with me to the North Island, and. went in all about 1200 miles, over all the big ' hills up in tho north. Going from ' hn"ton through to Napier over the KimuI taki, across to Patmeiston W.ng«nni, ' and New Plymouth, back to .W. elhngtoa over the famous PaekaKariki Hill, . Uhe car took all the big lulls with the ! "reatost ease, and did not give me the 1 Slightest anxiety. All that distance It was . not touched by anyone save to give it \ petMl awl oil, and wa did nof even have , io put wind into the tyres. You lull l>e Burprised to hear that I brought the car 1 over the Zig-zag fro™ Lytbilton to Sum. 5 ner which: says something for the car : and' the way you taught me to drive. - The Studebaker driven by Mr. Cowper 1 was ol' course, equipped with electric ►elf'starter and electric lights. Tho new 191G model Studebakers will be to hand ! shortly, a first shipment being cxpccted - • nex (; W eek.
