The Buick Motor company has never singled out a detail of construc­ tion as a main talking point, nor held out the bait of novelty to the public. Rather, it has pointed to the effectiveness of the cars as a whole, in their ability to overcome stubborn obstacles and their value as an adjunct to the average man in every fiP^ld of activity. A Buick car is an asset to every business, to every home, to every individual who has need of dependable transportation. And to this end the Buick Motor company has fitted Valve-in-Head motors to nine different models for 1918, each with a distinct range of usefulness. / " Prices F. O.
