=-and Does it.*' 



Did you ever think how carefully and perfect- 

 ly an Oldsmobile is built to stand all the hard 

 knocks it gets? Thing-s happen to it that would 

 put it out of business if it had even one weak 

 point. Over big jolts at high speed, through 

 mud, water, and sand; sudden stops, quick 

 starts, careless handling, etc., etc. 



The Oldsmobile stands them all. because it is 

 constructed for just this kind of handling. Every 

 part is exactly right for the work it has to do— 

 the mechanism is the simplest; there are no deli- 

 cate adjustments to get out of order. 



It took 20 years of gasoline-engine experience 

 to know how to build the Oldsmobile. It is as 

 near perfect as any automobile can be made. 



Increased power, increased speed, inci-eased 

 size, increased strength and weight of all parts; 

 increased gasoline and water capacity, wider 

 seat, larger i-adiator. Hub brake?, safety start- 

 ing-device (from the seat), three-inch double- 

 tube tires— entire absence of packed joints. 



The greatest "road efficiency" of any run- 

 about, because of its 5x6 cylinder, 7 horse-power, 

 1100 lbs. weight.
