“I win,” said the President to Sul
livan, after Lundblad confirmed the
first shopkeeper’s decision.
But the President was not so fortu
nate in a wager with a newspaper man
whom he asked to accompany him on
the walk. Some members of the Pres
idential party wanted the services of a
manicure, and when the question arose
whether Seward boasted a manicure,
the President offered to bet the news
paper man that it did. The newspaper
man took the wager. “We’ll make it a
tin of tobacco,” said the President.
At the first barber shop the Presi
dent asked the barber about a mani
cure and found none in town. He paid
the wager at a tobacconist’s a few
doors beyond.
There he also bought a plug of chew
ing tobacco for a member of his party,
I “I am doing this in memory of dear
old Knute Nelson,” he sai'd. “This was
his favorite brand.”
Strolling around the town the Pres
ident stopped to talk with children,
many of whom recognized him.
“What’s your name,” was his usual
question to each child. Two children
a sister and a brother, told him their
names were Constance and Jerrold.
“Constance, that is a beautiful name,”
he remarked.
A girl of 12 ran out of her home and
got the President to pose for a photo
I graph. When he had done this he ask
5 ed her name and found it was Beulah.
“I like the name Beulah,” he said,
“I’ve got a cousin of that name and
I’m going to see her when we get to
Los Angeles.”
j Malcolm Jennings, of Marion, Ohio,
! a member of the President’s party,
! hailed the President from across the
i main street.
Lome over here and see some game
trophies,” he said.
j The trophies, the heads of moun
tain sheep, caribou, and other animals,
were in the office of the hotel kept by
George Sexton, who told the President
the history of them. Louis, a 4-year
old cyclone, with a pencil tucked be
hind his ear, which he exhibited proud
ly, got another pencil from the Presi
dent.
“He’s going to be a business man,”
the President commented.
Most of the Seward houses are built
of wood and stucco. The President
likes the stucco ones. He spoke of the
attractiveness of the log houses at
Fairbanks, where he spent Sunday
and Monday. He was particularly im
pressed by the architect of the log
house of Mayor Marquam of Fair
banks. “You know,” he said to those
who accompanied him on the stroll,
“there are only two classes of houses
suitable for this country—log and stuc
co. I like them.”

NEW BODY STYLES
SPLENDID BRAKING SYSTEM
Buick External Braking System Ex
tended to Four Wheels—Speciall
Designed Carburetor
Introduced to the public today, the
1924 Buick cars offer renewed proof
of the unreliability of rumor. For
months gossip of what Buick would do
on August 1st has been prevalent and
often solemnly asserted by the wise
acres as “on good authority.” Yet so
little of it proves true and so many
complete surprises characterize these
cars, that Buick is to be congratuat
ed on keeping its secret so well.
There is no guestion that these
Buick cars will be hailed as a substan
tial advance in automobile engineer
ing, but it will be noted at the same
time that the new feautres are de
velopments rather than innovations,
evolutionary rather than revolution
ary and consisent throughout with
those Buick fundamental principles
that have endured through twenty
years of Buick manufacture.
With fifty per cent more power
—■— ■ 1 "
claimed for its famous valve-in-head
six cylinder engine, its successful ex-1
ternal brakes extended to four wheels
in both Sixes and Fours, a specially
designed carburetor that is heralded
as a wonder, and literally dozens of
other developments, major and minor, |
Buick proves that its engineering staff
has been very much ‘on the job.’
The thousands who are certain to
see these cars in the leading centers
this week—and very soon in the show
rooms of all Buick dealers—will first
observe a change in body lines, un-1
doubtedly influenced to a degree by
recent refinements in foreign design.
Thus a more modish appearance,
even than the 1923 Buick, has been
accomplished by a departure in radia- |
tor and hood contour on both open and
closed bodies. This applies to both the
six and four cylinder models, of which
there are fourteen body styles.
Exterior feautres noted at first
glance are the new head lamps, nickel
ed radiator on the sixes, water tight
hood hinge, open hood support, newdy
designed crown fenders, a more effec
tive weather-proof windshield strip,
operating instruments conforming in
design to the headlamps, flush venti
lator, new dust apron and a heavier
and better looking gasoline tank.
It will next be noted that a two to
| four inch longer wheel base on the
! six cylinder chassis has created more
room in both the front and rear com
partments, thus affording greater com
fort to both driver and passenger, and
coupled with an improved spring sus
pension, easier riding qualities also.
The finish is exceptionally fine, even
for Buick, and the appointments unus
ually complete.
But, despite the notable advances in
Buick appearance and roominess, it is
the chassis that reflects most the pro
tracted and intelligent effort that the
Buick organization has applied in de
veloping its car to this, the highest
attainment of its history.
The six-cylinder valve-in-head en
gine, which has probably brought more
enduring fame to Buick than any oth
1 er unit of its construction, has been so
re-designed that it actually yeilds 50
per cent more power and a speed of
60 :to 70 miles an hour. It has forced
feed lubrication, removable heads,
larger valves, heavier crank and cam
I shafts, greater piston displacement,
and a new Marvel carburetor that in
cludes a simple dash adjustment for
1 economy, regardless of weather or of
| kind of gasoline employed.
The extension to all four wheels of
the highly successful Buick external
brakes is a feature that, it is announc
ed, has been in process of develop
ment of a period of years and recent
ly subjected to more than 150,000
miles of hard and varied road tests.
These brakes enable the car to be
brought to a standstill much more
quickly and smoothly thus affording
an added factor of safety inestimable
in its advantages. The branes are op
erated by a light pressure on the foot
pedal and the mechanism is both sim
ple and ingenious. The factory organ
ization gives its complete approval to
this feature as perfected and in no
sense experimental.
Another outstanding factor is the
improved lubrication of the engine.
There are new cup-top push rods and
the rocker arms , valve stems and
springs, connecting rod bearings are
all automatically lubricated.
The foregoing are merely “the high
spots” in the 1924 Buick, the minor
improvements and refinements of the
line being, in the aggregate, scarcely
less interesting and epochal. And thru
it all basic Buick ideas of construction
have been rigidly adhered to, ampli
fied marvellously, but in no instance
discarded.
Of the fourteen body models of the
line, ten are mounted on the Six cyl
inder chassis and four on the four
cylinder chassis.
Of the six-cylinder body models
there are two interesting departures
from the 1923 line, a five-passenger
Sedan to be known as the “Double
Service,” and a five-passenger Brough
am. The former is painted a durable
black and the interior is lined and up
holstered in easily renovated material.
The result is a car that' can be sub
ness and at the same time quickly
adapted to social purposes.
The five-passenger Brougham, paint
ed in a brilliant maroon, is a very

smart model of the so-called Sport
type, It has all the refinements, inside
and out, that are associated with cars
of this character, besides many fea
tures distinctively its own.
The five passenger touring car and
the five-passenger Sedan, finished in
lustrous black, are distinguished by
ample room. The seven-passenger tour
tiinriff (inrtkimtmitkr
ing and seven-passenger Sedan are
finished in a beautiful soft shade of
blue. The sport roadster and sport
touring are both maroon color.
Of the four cylinder lij^e, the five
passenger touring and the two pas
senger Roadster are finished in black,
the four-passenger Coupe in maroon,
the five-passenger Sedan in blue.
