'nJ g e "Cleans as it Polishes” n WHEN BETTER AUTOMOBILES ARE BUILT, BUICK WILL BUILD THEM I Mi - Built for-- Roughßoads Extra iturdineie is an outstanding feature of Buick motorcars. Buick dosed cars demonstrate this most strikingly in cross-country travel. Town or country, good roads or bad, it’s all the same to a Buick. You can go anywhere any car can go, and do it much easier because of the famous, 75 horsepower, Buick Valve-in-Head engine. You can travel long distances in more comfort because of the deep, wide, luxurious seats, the extra head and leg room, and full can tilever rear springs. And Buick's bail bearing, worm and nut steer ing mechanism removes'all driving strain. This is the most efficient and most expensive steering gear so far perfected. Better Buick dosed models, are now on display. Your attention is particularly directed to the 4- door and 2-door Fisher Body Sedans at “Coach” prices.
