AN ANNOUNCEMENT. We have to announce that the second series of 191G "Studebaker" ears are hot on their way to New Zealand, per s.s. Patella, from Montreal, due to arrive shortly. These cars come from the Conftdian assembling* &n<l finishing branch, Walkerville, Ontario., and are remarkable for their exceptionally fine finish, necessitated Ijy the demands of the overseas Studebaker' trade. Many valuable detail improvements are incorporated ill the second scries 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 tha ladv driver or tho exceptionally tall or short man, whose comfort is not adequately provided for by the usual fixed dimensions in the front of the car. Another important modification is the relegation of the petrol tank to tho Tear of the car, and the provision of a very efficient vacuum feed to carburetter, Thore are many minor modifications and improvements, all designed to add to the comfort and convenience of both driver and passengers, while in appearanco the car is handsomer than ever. The new Studebakers will be on view at Studsbaker Agencies shortly, and all interested in the latest developments in American automobile design are invited to' inspect them.
