WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1922 ' iF CL TON AN RPL Lexington Lark Pulls Limp- ing Ship 174 Miles Bdward J. Wohlfarth, Lexington representative at Englewood, N. J., re- cently put his Lexington Lark to the most unique test in automobile his- tory. Mr. Wohlfarth, who is an enthu- siastic Elk, with a couple of compan- ions flew in an aeroplane from his home in Englewood to Atlantic City to attend the Elks' convention re- cently held there. While making some exhibition flights over Atlantic City, motor trouble was encountered and Wohl- farth was compelled to land in his machine, a land plane, in the water. The plane was so badly damaged that further flight was impossible. Atlantic City to Englewood Mr. Wohlfarth wired his office at Englewood for his Lexington Lark, a car which had already, in one year's running, been put over 27,500 miles of road. When the Lexington arrived, the disabled aeroplane was hooked on behind, and the long run of 174 miles from Atlantic City to Engle wood started. Despite the fact that Mr. Wohlfarth was compelled to drive carefully and slowly, the Lark made the entire re- turn trip on 10 gallons of gasoline, or an average of better than 17 miles on a gallon, and this despite the fact that the Lark had already seen long and hard usage. Mr. Wohlfarth, who is an experi- enced automobile man, believes this is a record that no automobile has duplicated.

The great majority of buyers of Type 61 are not led to its purchase primarily by a consideration of price. Many of them could easily pay a great deal more for an automobile and would do so if they thought they could secure more than in the Type 61 purchaseindicates they conclude they cannotsecure more. It is equally true that they could pay less, but just as they refuse to pay more for what they consider in no way better, so they refuse to pay less and accept what they believe to be inferior. | They buy Type 61 because after mature reflection they | have a clear conviction that it is both the Standard of the World and the world's greatest motor car value. | CADILLAC MOTOR CAR COMPANY - CHICAGO BRANCH EVANSTON SALES AND SERVICE - CADILLAC Cadillac.
