AN ANNOUNCEMENT-.

We bavo to announce that the second series of 191G "Studebaker" ears are now on their way to New Zealand, per s.s. Pal'cha, from Montr-ij', duo to arrive shortly. These cars come from the Canadian assembling and finishing branch, Walkerville, Ontario, and are remarkablo for their exceptionally fine finish, necessitated by the demands of the overseas Studebaker trade. Many valuable detail improvements aro incorporated in the second series models, one of the most noteworthy of these being the provision of independent and separately adjustable front seats of the "bucket" type, together with adjustable pedals. This refinement should especially appeal to the lady drivor or tho exceptionally tall or short man, whoso comfort is not adequately provided for by the usual fixed dimensions in the front of the car. Another important modification is the relegation of tho petrol tank to the rear of tho car, and the provision of a very efficient vacuum fc-ea to carburetter. There aro many minor modifications and im-, provemonts, all designed to add to the comfort and convenience of both driver and passengers, while in appearance the car is handsomer than ever. The uew Studebakers will be on view at Studebakor Agoncios shortly, and all interested in the latest developments in American automobile design are invited to inspect them.
