WHAT A CHRISTCHURCH DENTIST SA.YS ABOUT HIS STUDEBAKER. We have made big claims for the Stude baiter car on the score of its reliability tits siicpHSßy, and the ease with which, it tan bo driven. The following letter, addressed to us by Mr. 11. Cnwper, surgeon, dentist, of this city, demonstrates the kind of service the Stadebaker will give in the hands of an owner who has had cornuarativeiv little driving experience. Mr. Cowper puroliased a Studebaker car from us on November 30th< last, and his first lengthy tour was one in the North Island during the, recent Christmas and New Year holidays. Concerning his experiences on tint tour, Mr. Cowper writes:— "Just a few lines to toll you how thorouglily satisfied I am with my Studebaker car. As you know, I took it away with me to the North Island, and went in ail about 1200 miles, over all tho big hills up in tho north. Going from Weihngton through to Napier over the Rimutakas, across to Palmcrston, Wangauui, and New' Plymouth, and back to Wellington over the famous Paekakariki Hill, the car tool; all the big hills with the greatest ease, and did not give mo the slightest anxiety. All that distanco It was not touched by anyone save to give it petrol and oil, and ive did not even have to put wind into the tyres. You will lie (surprised ito hear that I brought tile car over the Zig-zag from I.yttelton to Sumner, which says something for the car and the way you taught me to drive." The Studebaker driven by Mr. Cow-pur was, of course, equipped with electri® fcelf-starter and electric lights. The new I9IG model Studebakers will be to hand shortly, a first shipment being expected next week. The prices of the new models lire':—2s h.p. five-seater (including electricf Eelt ; startci\ electric lights, and full ri-ad equipment), .-345; 25 h.p. three-seater (same equipment), .OS. They are even better than 'the 1015 model, which has given such magnificent satisfaction to all purchasers. Adonis, Ltd., _\'.Z.
