Chrysler has produced a new definition of a very fast automo bile in the Imperial "80", as his latest car is to be known," said W. D.

Or if service can not be measured in those terms, the Evanston branch offers 42,000 square feet of floor space de- voted to caring for the needs of the north shore. C. E. Stube, general manager of the Evanston branch, said that the increase of the number of Packards on the north shore, required three changes in the plant in the last 18 months. The last move being the addition of an entire second floor to the new Packard agency on Railroad avenue.
