Webster the Tailor, and New Nome and Ideal Sewing' Machine Agent, upstairs over The Advance Times Office. to ideal Motor Car By ERWIN GREER (President Greer Collage of Automotive Engineering, Chicago) It goes without saying that the ideal .automobile should be noise- less, free from vibration, power- ful, of simple, sturdy construction, with few. moving parts to get out of order and require attention, and with friction reduced, to a • mini- mum. It should be easily operated, flexible, capable of rapid accelera- tion, quick stopping, ready at a moment's notice, free from me- chanical and other complications, theft -proof, clean, roomy and com- fortable.. Most important of all, it must be practical, reliable, serv- iceable and economieal. In ap- pearance it should be so distinctive and attractive as to cause that just' pride that comes with ownership of a really fine car. The body work should be typical of the best tradi- tions of the coach -builder's art. In brief, it should be right in every detail. Thereason for the high favor with' which the closed type of auto- mobile is regarded seems obvious. The well built closed car affords, in summer and winter, a greater measure of comfort thaan is possible it the open type of vehicle, With windows lowered, the touring se- dan or coupe becomes an open car, providing . protection from dust, rain storms and other summer alis- turbances, 'In the winter months with. windows closed and equipped with a heater, the sedan or coupe always is comfortable. And com- fort, after all, is the factor that most appealsto the present-day zrotor-ear owner. What will the final equipment of automobiles. be? This as the question that is brought up almost, every time sevbral motor -car own- ers get together for a few minutes' chat on what their ear can do. When the electric . lighting and starting was installed, it was thought the last word had been heard, for these improvements overshadowed all the previous ones that bad been made.
