AN ANNOUNCEMENT. , We have to announce that the second series of 1916 "Studebaker" cars are now on their way to New Zealand, per s.s. Pakeha, from Montreal, due to arrive shortly. These cars come from the Canadian assembling and finishing branch, Walkerville, Ontario, and are remarkable for their exceptionally fine finish, necessitated by tho demands of the overseas Studebaker trade. Many valuable detail improvements are incorporated in the second series models, one of the most noteworthy of theso boing tho provision of independent and separately adjustable front peats of the "bucket' type, together with adjustable pedals. This v> finemont should especially appeal to the lady driver or the exceptionally tall or short man;-whose comfort is not adequately provided for by tho usual fixed dimensions in the front of tho car. Another important modification is tho relegation of the petrol tank to the rear of the car, and tho provision of a very efficient vacuum feed to carburetter. There are many minor modifications and improvements, all designed to add to the comfort and convenience of both driver and passengers, while in appearance the car is handsomer than ever. The new Studebakers will be on viow at Studebaker Agencies shortly, and all interested in tho latest developments in American automobile design are invited to inspect them.
