WHAT A CHEISTOHTJRCH DENTIST • SA.YS ABOUT HIS STtTDEBAKER, Wo have made big claims for the Studebaker'car on the score of its reliability, its simplicity, and the ease with which, it can l>o driven. The following letter, addressed to us by Mr. R. Cowper, surgeondentist, of this city, demonstrates the kind of service the SSudebaker will give in the hands of an owner who has had comparatively. little driving experience. Mr. Cowper purohwrett a Studebaker oar from us on November 30th last, and his first lengthy tour was one in the North Island ilunug tlie recent Christmas and Neve Year holidays. Concerning his experi. cnces on tUt tour, Mr. Cowper writes:— "Just a few lines to tell you how thop. ougMy satisfied I am with my Studebaker car. As you know, I took it away with ine to the North Island, and went in all about 1200 miles, over all thejjig hills up in the north. . Going from Weilingtou through to Napier over the Rimutakns, across to Palmerston, Wanganui, tind New Plymouth, and back to Wellington over trie famous Paeknkanki Hill, iihe car took-all the big hills with the greatest ease, and did not give mo the slightest anxiety. All that distance It wa9 not touched by anyone save to give it petrol and oil, and wo did not even have to put wind into the tyres. You will he surprised to hear that I brought the car over the Zig-zag from Lyttelton to Sumner, which says something for tho car and the way you taught/me to drive." The Studcbaker driven by Mr. Cowper was of course, equipped with electrio volf-storter and electric lights. The new 1916 model Studebakers will be to hand thortly, a first shipment being expected next week. The prices of the new models iivc:--25 h.p. five-seater (including electrio Eelf-startcr, elcctrio lights, and full road equipment), ,£315; 25 h.p. three-seater (samo equipment), .€335. They are even better than tho 1015 model, which has given such magnificent satisfaction to all purchasers. Adams, Ltd., N.Z.
