The need for greater driving "care at night is highlighted by the fact that three out of every five traffic fatalities occur after dark. This is true, although only 30 per cent of driving is done at night. At night many pedestrians, looking at the bright headlights of an on-coming car, feel sure that they are being seen by the driver. What they don't realize is that if their background is as pu« axB Xaq) umn jo hjbp they are wearing dark clothing, less than five per cent c£f the light which falls on them is reflected backf to the driver's eyes. Rain, mist, fog, a dirty windshield and inefficient headlghts further reduce the driver's visibility. I Motorsts al-e urged to cut down driving speeds which, while safe during clear weather, may be excessive under autumn 4riving conditions.

But we have noticed, through the years, that the car is a very special favorite with the ladies. For, most assuredly, a Cadillac does some vfery wonderful and extraordinary things for a lady. First of all, she looks her loveliest when she is seated behind its wheel. Every time she takes to the highway, she finds herself the •Oil point in a perfectly gorgeous picture. And she/f<?/j just as wonderful as she looks. ' The car's deep, luxurious cushions cradle her in magnificent comfort throughout the longest journey. The great responsiveness of the quiet, powerful engine gives her a marvelous sense of command. The car steers and brakes and drives with such miraculous ease that she actually rests as she rides. Of course, there are a great many"other satisfactions which a lad^finds jn ji new? Cadillac car. There is, for instance, her delight at seeing her family surrounded with every comfort a&d safeguard known to the science of motor car design. And there is the deep and reward- OVERTON CADILLAC 400 Front Street McHenry ing sense of fulfillment which comes~wit)» - ownership of such a prized and sought-aftei possession. Even parked in her driveway, the car is a tribute to her good taste and judgment ... and a wonderful complement to the * beauty and graciousness of her home*' * e * To any gentleman reading this advertise? /nent--we would like to make a suggestion: Some day soon--when the sky is bright and the time is right--ask your lady if she wouldn't like to take a ride in a 1953 Cadillac^ We think we know what the answer will be --and we'll be happy to see you, indeed, PONTIAC Co Phone 17 ;'1
