Show M i FIENDS AND BRISCOE US Transportation by Autc Now Supersedes All But Rail Service. "There is a decided difference be twecn a motorist and a pedestrian from the standpoint of health," said Sales Manager Miller of the Millcr-Cahoorj company of Murray. ' ' The man whe drives a Briscoe or ay other automobile stands a better chance of outliving his brother on the pavement for many reasons. rea-sons. A great health specialist asserted that 'a motorist has the advantage of moving air,' and this, he asserts, 'is great. 'There was a time when we believed that fresh air was only valuable for the oxygen in it. Today we know that good air and plenty of it is absolutely- essential, essen-tial, not onlv for the lungs but for the skin as well. The skin needs moving air, and you can only get that to the greatest "advantage in an automobile. Automobile riding is a sure preventive of and cure for that great American malady, the bad cold. "Few people atop to think that rail-rtransportation rail-rtransportation and transportation f4y water are really incomplete transportation trans-portation "which must have as their auxiliary aux-iliary the motor car. Thus, you may bring into a city or town all the freight that you please, but unless it is removed from -the depot to its final destination by the motor car, it as far from the buyer as it ever was. ''This is particularly the ease these days as to passenger traffic. In the city we use the motor car, privately owned, or the pnblic taxicab, in which to reach the depot, and our motor car or the taxicab meets us at the depot when we return home. Even more marked is the use of the motor car in the smaller towns where there are no street cars or where the street cars run but- a short distance from the depot, as is usually the case. Many expressions have come to us from buyers of Briscoe cars, and parti eularly from local buyers, buy-ers, in which they comment on the extreme ex-treme value of their automobile to them in petting from country places into town rapidly and easily, or going from their homes to depots to catch trains. The conclusion that must be reached, therefore, there-fore, is that the motor car is absolutely indispensable to the conduct of business busi-ness affairs of our nation." |
