PUBLIC NOTICES. New Cadillac: Ellmlnat Two Great ■ nconvenlen- ' fft-Stor«n« and Ctssctrtc LlKhted. 1912 Creßrinc New Luxury to Motorists*. In equipping tte 11)12 cars with an electr leal generating system, which starts and Ignites the motor and supplies en rrent for tbe electric lamps. the Cadillac Motor Car Company has eliminated the two great tocoovenT* enees of motorlnc—the first, cranking the engine; the other aUgMlna' s falls, no matter what the condition of tfcZ t road or weather, to light the lumps, -vmuamk oi im .■A Doubtless, one of the reasons that tie operation of gasoline en ■/I: been almost entirely restricted to men. Is that It Is usually a man's , f to crank a motor by hand. Not only experience, but the exertion of much strength Is required to overcome the c ompresßlan and "turn over" the engine. The other inconvenience is almost as «prions, and moat daaa—a« - when rain la falling or the wind blowing w lth strch force that ft to aXßsaat; impossible to preserve a matcli flame long enough to light fen ordinary lamp. Both are obviated entirely In the new season's Cadillac. A -wan can start the ear as easily as a man. The lcmps to front and tear lighted wlthoot an ocenpant of the car leaving his <a her seat. To start the motor, a button is pressed and the clutch Is flls. by the foot pedal. This Is all tie operator does; ttff rest Id antomatle. The engine begins to revolve, being driven by the electric generator which tar the moment becomes a motor. As soon as the engine begins to nn under its own power—which takes place after the first *ew iewliithaM—the generator again assumes its function of supplying current for Ignition and; storing electricity In a storage battery for .the lighting system. An the lamps on the Cadillac are lighted etectrlca&y. Tney are tumc* on with no more effort than the pressing of a button. Them Is Do necessity to atop the car and plod from front to rear and rem* to front m mnd or slush. DEXTER & CROZIER, WELLESLEY ST.
