WHAT AUCKLAND'S LEADING MOTOR ENGINEER THINKS OF. THE NEW ERSKINE. The opinion of a well-known man> like Mr. A. Taylor is always very muck sought after. He has built a flourishing business by selling only quality goods. Mr. Taylor says, "The new Erskine, to my mind, has embodied in it all th o very latest refinements and engineering design that has ever come to this country. It is the type of car I like to sell and recommend to my friends for it is a really quality job and further enhances Studebaker's reputation for being builders of high quality cars. From an engineering point of view the engine design is remarkably attractive. The new crankshaft is a specially built up job and counterbalanced and machined on all surfaces, and dynamically balanced by a Lanchester balancer which is only found on the very high priced cars. '"The Erskine has now grown up and has a full 114 inch wheelbase and is powered with a 25 h.p. motor, which will gi vo you speed up to TO miles per hour, taking all hills in the surrounding territory with the greatest of ease 011 top. The Erskine's new double drop chassis allows for cornering at a, very high rate of speed, and the smart low swung body is beautifully finished in maroon. The Bedford cord upholstery is in keeping with the rest of this quality car. The equipment is specially generous and in" eludes New Burgess Acoustic Silencer, new type four wheel brakes, exclusive to Erskine, Lovejoy Hydraulic Shock Absorbers and chromium plating on all exterior bright work. ' I assure you this car is one of the snappiest, speediest little cars and is an an absolute revelation to drive. I extend a cordial invitation to my friends and to any interested prospective owners to inspect this last word from Studebaker.

'In conclusion I would like to say that I am short of used cars and. will give a good trade in price on your present car as part payment for a New Dynamic Erskine."—ADAMS LTD., 37 ATberjj Street, Auckland.—(Ad.). '
