Pioneer Build ers of Valve-in-Head MOTOR CARS Power Accessibility Dependability Power in the motor car is seven-tenths of the time a dormant factor, but, when it is needed, the most important of all others. Whenever power is needed the Buick Valve-in-Head motor is the most efficient. No engineers or writers of recognized authority in either the United States or foreign lands hesitate to admit this. The leading builders of motors for all purposes where constant power is demanded, such as in the aeroplane, the submarine and marine engine, un hesitatingly adopt the Valve-in-Head type. The simple construction of the Buick Valve-i -Head motor makes all parts accessible. They are where hey can be seen. No uncertainty or guess work, no complication of moving par s to make oiling a difficult problem. The success of the Buick Valve-in-Head motor is due to the f ct that it is not an experiment, not an uncer tainty. The Buick is a car of proven value and dependability; starting their fourteenth year. You will eventually buy a Six, why not now? You can't get greater value anywhere in any car. Easy riding, graceful in appearance and performance, durable and substantial. 1* 45 Horse-Power Roadster, $1,015 45 Horse-Power 5-Passenger, $1,050 DELIVERED IN NEWNAN ■ A a i C( iweta Auto Sales TELEPHONE NO. lO G 0. = II II " II 111 11 ll II Gay.
