I invited him in and asked him to be seated while I fin ished the letter. Norcross Was Hit Hard. "As I turned mv back to him and continued my letter, Barnwell struck me across the head with this heavy stick. You can see by the splintered stick and by the cut in the back of my head that it was a terrible-blow. "As I turned toward him after the first blow he struck me two quick blows with the same stick, the blows falling on either side of my head. They left marks also, as you see, "I clinched with him and took the stick from him, threw him to the floor, and. after taking several punches at his face, let him up. As soon as he was on his feet again he began hurling any thing he could get his hands on at my head. There is no telling what would have occurred had he had a pistol or knife. "By that time several men hart gath ered at my office door and some of them grabbed Barnwell and carried him from the room. I went immediately to a physician in a nearby office and had the wound on the back of my head dressed. Angered at Phone Talk.

MS The time has passed when automobiles can be sold to you on their appearances or claims. This is a day when you and every KgJ* &F 3 purchaser must be shown what the car for which you pay your /'aS money will actually perform; what it will do. Beware of an £**2 automobile salesrrtan who attempts to beguile you with a pleasing story. Tell him to show the goods and prove to you that his cars are worth the money. Find out whether his car UA is a real car or only an assembled automobile built to sell. You have a right to your money's worth, but it is up to you to see that you get it. Deeper than all appearances, there are a few expert tests which ought to be applied to every car. Who makes the car? Is it an assembled car or made from top /i J to bottom by one manufacturer? What kind of a guarantee fl is on it? Does the manufacturer respect his own product with a real guarantee, or does he want you to take the chance? X’l What do parts cost you and how conveniently can you get them? How many cars of- this make arc in service and how many are giving satisfaction ? Questions like these go deep into ,n the heart of the case, and if you put them rigorously upon W any car you will find out with a certainty whether or not that year is worth its price. We are selling Studebaker E-M F “30” and Flanders “20” because we know that, dollar for dollar, their equal is not sold in the market today. The records of many thousands of dFs cars in all kinds of service have convinced us absolutely. Studebaker E-M-F “30” and Flanders “20” cars are built to run. and because they run they sell. If we cannot prove to fekl you under the most searching test that Studebaker cars are absolutely the best automobile values in the market, we do AtfAy. not want your business; but we can prove it. and your neighbors who drive these cars will tell you the same thing. .
