WHAT A CHRISTOHURCH DRNTISI slVs ABOUT HIS STUDEBAKER. We have made big claims Tor the Studo. hiUi-r car on tlie score of its reliability, a\ simnllHty, and the ease with which it. ran be driven.. The. following letter, addressed to us by. Mr. 11. Cowper, surgeon., dentist, of this city, demonstrates the kind! of service the .Studebakw will give in the hands of an owner who LfC had com; parativeiy little driving expenenc Mr.. Towner purohascd a Studebaker rar frt>r» „ 3 on November 30th last, and his fir<* lengthv tour was one in the North Island durin-* the recent Christmas and Ne* Year holidays. Concerning his expen. ences on that tour, Mr. Cowper writes "Just a few lines to tell you how thoroughly satisfied I. am «i.h nn Stude-_ h-iker car. As you know, I took it away wUh me to 'the North Island, and went in all about 1200 miles, over all the bis hills up in the north. . Going lington through to Napier over tho Emmtakas, across to Palinerston, Wanganui, and New Plymouth, and back to .Wolhng, ton over the famous Paekakanki Hill, the car took all: tflie big hills with the greatost ease, and «;d not give mo the slightest anxiety. .Ad that distance it was not touched by anyone save to give it netrol and oil, and we did not even hav« to put wind into the tyres, lou will be surprised to hear that I brought the cai over tho Zig-zag from LytteiUa > i 0 Sum. ner which says something fot the car and' the way you taught me to drive." The Studebaker driven by Mr. Cowper was, of course, equipped with electrio «elf-starter and electric lights. The new I9IG model Stndebakers will be to hand shortly, a first shipibent being expected next wee I; The priovj of the new models areli.ii. five-seater (including elcctriq Belf-startei - electric lights, and full road equipment), .£345; 25: h.p. ' tbrce-seater (samo equipmeut), .£3:5. They jre even better than the 1915 model, which has given such magnificent satisfaction-to all purchasers. Adams, LtcL, N.Z.
