servation cards or other signs of
loyally anti service. While silting
in a drugstore my eyes fell upon
it beautiful American flag attached
io an eke trie fan in such a way
that its lovely tolds floated con
tinually in the bieeze. As 1 con
tinued to gaze upon it and think
deeply of nil it stands for, of what
it means to us as a nation, burn
ing te .rs sprang to m\ eyes and
my heart seemed near to breaking
when the dark thought came to
an that I might possibiy see the
day that its colors wnuln be torn
down and dragged in ihe dirt, its
staff b;okeu by the heel of the i n
titny we are warring against and
our iiMiniiu' flag coast to be. But

Don’t You Think This Reo
Six Is a Beautiful Motor Car?
WE CONFESS WE ARE PROUD of the looks as well
as oi nie mechanical excellence of tins ne*\ Reo model.
RIVALS USED TO SAY “Oh, Reos are good cars —no
gain saying that —but our bodies excel in design,” etc.
PERHAPS WE DID concentrate our attention on the
mechanical features, and sometimes to the neglect of
mere outward appearance.
PERHAPS WE DID, but as between the two, which do
you prefer, a good car —or a good looking one?
FOR IT IS A FACT that those who “build them to
sell” are just as prone to overlook vital mechanical
details as we were to ignore the fads of the moment
in our body design.
OF COURSE the ideal, at which we aim is a good look
ing car that is also v ternally good—and tjiat de
scribes this New Reo Six.
IN EVERY LINE and curve —in all details of upholstery
and finish and equipment —this Reo Six is a la mode.
»
UP TO THE MINUTE in design—while the quality in
seen, as well as in unseen places is—Reo.
AND THAT’S THE BEST the world affords.
WE REO FOLK DON’T SKIMP to meet a price com
petition. Reos are not built to sell at a predeter
mined price.
REOS ARE BUILT just as well as Reo experience and
Reo engineering skill, actuated by Reo Good Intent,
can make them. Then the price is set —based on
cost plus a reasonable profit.
IN A WORD, the Reo you buy is made just as you
would ’nave it were you to write the specifications
yourself, test every part and then watch every ope
ration.
SPACE FORBIDS a detailed des@ r iotion here. Besides
the car itself tells its own story beker.
•* ■*
SEE THIS SIX—RIDE IN IT. Diiye it yourself—you
can, without a word of instruction if you have ever
driven any automobile. - 1
THEN LET CS HAVE your order at once —for demand
is already ahead of factory output and only those ,
who order early can hope to obtain Reos.
TODAY won’t be a minute too iate.
