7 hi WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, AUGUST 22, 1925 PRICES CUT BY DODGE BROTHERS Increased Production Brings About Reduction Announcement of a reduction in the rrices of Dodge Brothers motor ve- hicles, both passenger and commercial, effective Monday. August 17, has been received by Wersted Motor Co., local dealer. New list prices, f. o. b. Detroit, are as follows: Standard Types Touring ..

"These new prices come at a time when Dodge Brothers product has reached the highest peak of mechanical perfection in its history," declares Mr. Wersted. "In an attempt to supply public demand, factory production has been stepped up since the first of this year from 900 cars a day to the present rate of over 1,100 and now Dodge Brothers are pushine as rapidly as pos- sible an eight million dollar expan- sion program to give them buildings and machinery for a production of 1,500 cars a day. "This price cut is just the applica- tion of Dodge Brothers policy of faith- fully returning to the buyer the sav- ing made possible by increased pro- duction. Since the first of this vear production has been steadily increased month after month. The first six months of 1925 were the largest in the factory's history--more than 11 per- cent greater than the first six months of 1924. The problem for Dodge Brothers executives has been, not to find a market for their product, but to increase production to supply a ready market. : "The constantly increasing, vet never satisfied, demand for Dodge Brothers Motor Cars is convincing evidence that a motor wise public is more and more appreciative of the greater value made possible by Dodge Brothers sound policy Ot constantly improving a basic design instead of bringing out a new model every year."

LAKE BLUFF DEFEATS LOCALS Winnetka's Playfield baseball team met its first defeat of the season re- cently when Lake Bluff scored a 5 to 4 victory in a thrilling ninth inning rally. Cadillac Stendard 7-Passenger Sedan NewCADILLAC is More, Groves More, Does More The new Cadillac is lower --superbly graceful, with the air of fleetness and agil- ity that is more than equaled by its brilliant performance. The chassis is lighter by 250 pounds, and more simple. Power is increased and flexi- bility and responsiveness augmented. Acceleration is remarkable, and sustained speed is, of course, avail- able in extraordinary degree and for any length of time. WY Product of Years The new Cadillac, throughout, bears the hali mark of supremacy. Squarely in line with the most advanced tendencies, is this new Cadillac. It is not a change in Cadillac's fundamental prin-* ciples of V-type eight-cylinder design. It is, rather, a development, a perfection of the appli- cation of those principles, due to a quick sense of the responsibility thatis upon Cadillac. Cadillac, today, as always, can be trusted to maintain its position as the standard of the world. 7.
