New CADILLAC eliminates two great inconveniences ISELF STARTIN<TAND ELECTRIC LIGHTED, 1912 OARS BRING MEW LUXURY TO MOTORING. IN equipping its 1912 oars with an electrical generating eysitem, which starts and ignites the motor and supplies current for the eltectric lamps, tie Cadillac Motor Oar Company has: eKmanated th» ; twe great inconveaiieincesi of motoring—the first, cran-king the engine; the other, aAigjhting from the oar whien darkness falls',-no matter what the condition of the road or weather, to light the lamps. Doubtless, oae of the reasons that tflie operation of gasoline cars lias been aJmost entirely restricted to men, is that it is uefualjy a man'® work to cca-ii a motor by . hand. Not onijy experience, but the exertion of much strength i® required to overcome the compression and "turn over" th)e "engine. 1 . . The other inoonvenienoe is almost as. serious, arid'- most- ; qifioouragin'g .when rain' is falling or the wind blowing _ with such force that it is l alLmost impossible to preserve a match. flame long enough: to light an; ordinary lamp. Both, are obviated entirety in the new season's OadiUJae. A woman can start the car as easily a® a man. The lamps in front aaid near are lighted without an occupant of the oar leav- i ing, hiis or her' seat. To start itSie rootor. a button is 1 pressed and ithe clutch, is disengaged by the foot piedaiS. This as aJH th<> ojp«rafbor does; /th» rest is automatic. Tlhe engine begins to revolve, being driven by /the electric generator wfhich for the mometnt becomes a motor. As sopm as the engine begins to rtm under ait® own power—.which. takes place after the first few revolutiioa&r- the generator again assumes its tfumcfciotti' of supplying current for ignition and storing electricity in a. storage battery for tine lighting system. . All the lamps, on. the OacKEac are Eghted electrioaMy. They are turned on with no more effort than l - the pressing of a button. There is no nteoessifcy to stop- the car and plod] from front to r.ear and rear to in mild or slum.
