Because of ispecial design of the come clut- i$ in the transmission, exceptional- ; 5 ick synchronization has been imiade possible, SWAnother feature of the new Mc- Eaughlin-Buick Eight and one which ls' created a lot of favorable com- 1 pit on the part of the experienced ptorists is the new engine oil tem- pature regulator. Probably no im- ement of recent date contributes so much to better engine per- que Th a formance and longer motor life than does' this comparatively simple and cffective device which holds the heat of the oil down to effective lubricat- ing temperatures. The high speeds made possible with the modern auto- mobile engine have resulted in higher oil temperatures and a consequent lowered visrosity, Therefore, Mc-Lauchjin-Buick has provided a safeguard against extreme oil temperatures by the adoption of this regulator, which is similar in principle to a radiator. It is mount- ed in a metal casino at the water in- let to the cylindar block. Water from the pump flows through the tubes of this radiator on its way to the motor, while the oil from the oil pump flows around the tubes on its way to the bearings. Thus it quickly warms the oil in. cold weather and reduces the heat in warm weather. Power roar, which has been iden- tified with most eight cvlinder motor construction has been sile~~d on the McLaughlin-Buick Eight with a new compact attachment fitted to the carburetor intake which fills the dual mission of celaning and filtering the air. and eliminating the irtake noise. And incidentally, this air intake silencer is only one of several un- usual methods employed to make the 1931 McLaughlin-Buick Eioht the most silent high-powered car on the road. = The beautiful new . Fisher Bodies incorporate a novel idea in body construction that is designed to add to the silence of the car, the bodies being insulated. Insulation is accomplished in the front compartmenty of all models through the use of lav~rs of felt and insulating material which in turn is covered with a special embossed com- position board. In the rear compart- ments the felt is glued Hirectly to the floor and covered with a carpet of deep piling. All metal floor pans, even under the seat cushions, are covered with felt. Another improvement that attracts the attention of many show visitors is. the. fact .that both the. brake and gear control levers in the front com- partment have .bcen moved forward making this compartment untisually roomy.

Notwithstanding the fact that the new Pontiac is larger than before and has a number of engineering im: provements, it is being offered for less than the price at which any pre- vious Pontiac has been introduced. Most noticeable of the changes in the new Pontiac, is the longer wheel- base, which lends itself beautiful body proportions and has permitted the designing of a bigger, lower appearing automobile. Other improvements introduced by Pontiac engineers affect safety and ease of operation of the car, its engine re- liability, ventilation and riding com- fort. Rubber insulation has been de- veloped to a new high point of ef- ficiency. Theexternal advance in the styling of the distinctive new: Pontiac cars is found in the chrome-plated screen which conceals and protects the ra- diator core; in the curved fender tie- bar supporting the new chrome-plat- ed head lamps; in the longer hood secured by a single handle lock on cach side; in one-piece full-crown fenders carrying indicator lamps; in the concave running board aprons smoothly, carrying the body contour to the running. board which them- selves are aluminum-bound and rub- | ber-ribbed. New belt mouldings and a' new type of sun visor add further touches of distinction, Extensive use of rubber for insula- tion against sound and road shocks has contributed greatly to the factor of riding comfort in the new Pontiac, The whole body is practically cush- ioned on rubber Metal spring shackle bushings have been replaced throurh- out by rubber bushings and the heavier frame and body are entirely insulated by live rubber from the springs and axles and, it is stated, this design. of spring shackle elimin- ates 12 chassis lubrication points.

Beauty of design and 'richness of color are conspicuous iogether with the many added. refinements and distinctive touches that make for true luxury and lasting pride of possession. i Most important of all, the Model 66-D, brings all the inherent snu- perior advantages of the patented Willys-Knight double sleeve-vaive engine--the simplest and most cf- ficient of automobile power plants. To the already firmly astablish- ed prestige of the Willys-Knight engine has been added an enviahle array of improvements. For ex- ample, the new Willys-Knight is the most powerful car ever produc- ed by Willys-Overland. It has an engine which develops 87 horse- power and is capable of sweeping you over the highways at more than 80 miles per hour. This remarkable power plant is, as in the case of all of our cars, rubber insulated in a strong, all steel double drop frame. The wheelbase is 121 inches and the tread is 583% inches wide. The new model 66-D is by far the most brilliant performing XKnlght-cn- gined car we have ever built. It will do 50 miles per hour in sec- ond gear, quietly and easily. It is available in two Body styles --=Victoria Coupe -and Sedan with either wood or wire wheels. In every model you will And greater luxury than ever before plus the added safety of shatter-proof glass.

It had been built into a ship or- dinarily powered by three gasoline motors, Officials of the Transport Ministry and the Lufthansa Airline were aboard for the test, The engine Is to zo into the Lufthansa freight service and after extensive tests wih be mounter in passenger "planes, It has no spark plugs or other electrical ignition, Compresseg air fed from a special tank starts the motor and in flight a small auxili- ary. Diesel re-charges the tank. SIMCOE STREET As it looked before the horseless carringe was invented. This rig is just about mired on the core ner of Athol street and Simcoe. Combustion in the cylinders takes placo when a jet of fuel oil is spray- od into a temperature raised by high compression to 762 degrees Fahrenheit. The motor weighs 1,760 pounds and its builders say is will increase the flying range by 40 per cent and will double the payload. Grenadier Island Corn : Brockville~--The warm weather of the past few days has had a marked effect on the growth of the famous Grenadier Island corn. Pedal and control openings are sealed by felt or rubber pads against the in- trusion of unwanted hot or cold air. Heavy dash insulation muffles road sounds and prevents motor heat from entering the passenger compartment. Improvements in the top construction and a new method devised by Fisher for building the tonneau sides render the bodies stronger and more silent. The 1931 Pontiac is offered in the coach, standard sedan, sport sedan and the standard and Sport Coupes. The sport coupe, equipped with rear deck seats, affords comfortable accomodation for two additional pas- sengers. All the basic features of design of the old Pontiac which were respons- ible for its staunch qualities and re- putation, have been retained in new car, yet several further refinements have been achieved. The air purifier formerly used on the Pontiac engine has been replaced by a new device called the air silencer and it serves to reduce the hissing of the carbure- tor during periods of acceleration. It also acts as a positive arrester of back fires and it eliminates the roa caused during high speed operation by the vibration of air columns in the intake manifold. MODEL 66-D WILLYS OVERLAND DEEMED FINE ACHIEVEMENT Beauty of Design And Rich ness of Action Are Notable In the new Willys-Knight, Mod- el 66-D, Willys-Overland presents the finest achievement in twenty- four years of building quality au- tomobiles. In artistry of design and in brilliance of action, the new Willys Knight deservedly takes front rank among the most luxur- fous cars of the modern age. Par- ticularly appealing is this car, when it 1s considered that its price represents a savings of $700 thus bringing the exclusive, patented features of its sleeve-valve engine comfortably within the reach of Noday Genuine receives its Dust Recognition WEN men gather in home, club or office, and the conversation turns to motor cars, there are always words McLaughlin-Buic! of praise for k. These are times when careful thought is given to important expenditures--times when genuine value, such as McLaughlin. Buick offers, receives its just recognition. Hence McLaughlin-Buick is winning more than fifty out of every 100 sales of eights in its price class"--with 14 other makers shar. ing the remainder. Any company may have a good year, may catch the public's fancy through some one point or other -- but McLaughlin-Buick cars must be better or people would not be buying them in such unrivalled volume. *Compiled from latest available registrations supplied by Migh doh about the GM AC General Motors Owner " Forward Canadal id | Canada is joining in a great forward movement; and General otors' contribution is "Canadas on Parade", a radio hour every F evening that gives n. : Che N Listen in to this all-Canedisn broad: Value » -, DW} il TELLERS t Directories Limited. plan of deferred payments = and the ervice Policy. in music end story the progress of the 4 Series--4 Price Al with Syncro- Mesh Cransmission and Corque Tube Drive There are four series of MecLaughlin-Buick Straight Eights -- 20 luxurious models--listing from $1290 to $2900.
