WHAT A CHEISTCHTJECH DENTIST SAYS ABOUT HIS STUDEBAKEB, Wo have made "big claims Tot the Studebaker 'car 011 tho score of ita reliability, its simplify, and the ease with whic-h it tan be driven. The following letter, addressed to us by Mr. It. Cowper, surgeondentist, of this city, demonstrates the kind of service the Studebaker Trill give, in tha hands of an owner who has had comparatively little driving experience. Mr. Cowper purohased a Studebaker car from us on November 30th last, and his first lengthy tour was one in the North Island during the recent Christmas and Nevt Year holidays. Concerning his experiences on tl.at tour, Mr. Cowper writes:— "Just a few lines to tell you how thoroucMy satisfied X am with my Studebaker car. As you know, I took it away with mo to the North Island, and went in all about 1200 miles, over all the bis hills up in tho north. Going from Wellington through to Napier over the Kimutakas, across to Palmerston, Wanganui, 6nd New Plymouth, and back to Wellington over the famous Paekakariki Hill, the car took all the big hills with the greatest ease,- and did not give mo tho Slightest anxiety. All that distanco it was not touched, by anyouo save to give it petrol and oil, and wo did not even have to put wind into the tyres. You will be surprised to bear that I brought the calf over the Zig-zag from Lyttelton to Sumner, which says something for tho car and the way you taught me to drive." Tho Studebaker driven by Jlr. Cowper was, of course, equipped with electric and electric lights. The new 1916 model Studebakors willbc to hand shortly, a first shipment being expected next week. The prices of the new modelsnre:—2s h.p. five-seatcr (including electrio Belf-starter. electric lights, and full road equipment), JE345; 25 h.p. tbree-seater (same equipment). .£335.
