And the white enow that folds all life to calms. 1 love to hear the wind amongst the trees. The dear deep Music of the blessed rain, To see the breezes run across the grain, And turn its quiet into swinging seas. I love to see the sunrise touch the zone; To watch it sink behind the Westernbars; To wait the quiet beauty of the stars, And the still splendor of the rising moon. I love the cattle grazing in the glade, And all the life that shares my world with me; 1, too, like Abraham, can lift my eyes and see How goodly is the land that God hath, made. DR. 0. H.

It solves the problem which has baffled automotive engi- neers—how to combine -riding comfort with light weight and. economy. Our new Three -Point Cantilever Springs make this possible. These are the first springs of their kind and they are made of chrome vanadium steel. They are exclusive with Overland. Because of these springs, Overland 4 combines the riding qualities of large, heavy, expensive, long wheelbase cars, together with the advantages and economy of small, light cars. With 100 -inch wheelbase, Overland 4 has the luxurious riding ease of 130 - inch Springbase. The. exclusive, Three -Point Canti- lever Springs cushion the car so that it rides _well on all roads: they reduce choppy rebounds and side swaying, protect the car from road shocks and prolong its life, minimize twisting or racking of frame and body, enable the car to hold the road better. The car and passengers ride smooth- ly as though floating, free from ,road shocks. But this new riding comfort, possi ble only with these Three -Point Canti- lever Springs, is but one of the advan- tages of Overland 4: Its light weight makes possible great economy of gasoline and tires. High quality materials insure dura- bility. All vi.'a:i parts of the front axle and steering gear and all highly stressed driving gears and shafts are made of abby steel. The equipment list of Overland 4 is like that of expensive cars: Auto -Lite Starting and Lighting System, Electric Horn • -- Specially Resilient Upholstery Springs --Demountable Rims—Three Speed Transmission --Slanting Rain Vision Windshield —Tillotson Carbu- retor, and many other high quality conveniences. In every respect Overland 4 is a quality car. The body is all steel, all enamel, the brightest, hardest, most lasting finish. Overland 4 has been tested for two years and more than 250,000 miles over the • Rocky Mountains, prairies,, through deep mud and scorching 'des- erts—through quick, sharp climatic changes. As a result of these tests we were able to judge the car's perform- ance under every condition and to per-, fect it before offering it to the public. There is no previous car of any size or price to adequately compare with the character of service Overland 4 in- troduces. The farther you ride in it the more you will appreciate it. Come in and get a Booklet. The demand for Over- land 4 will be greater than the supply for some time. Overland 4 Touring, $1195; Roadster, $1195; Coupe, $1845; Sedan, $1995. Prices f. o. b.
