"No color is scheduled to enter production until it is thoroughly tested to withstand all kinds of weather conditions," said Mr. McDonald. "Sample colors are painted on slides fitted in a revolving wheel that turns continually, first 'e xposing the lacquers to a violet ray and next dipping them into a water trough, intensifying many times the atmospheric conditions a car encounters.

Mr. Springer explained that the car, a four quered surface. door Sedan disappeared when a customer, weary of waiting for deliv~ry, took it away. One of the features of the new Nash which is being stressed is ease of riding, and in this connection a little ~tory is told. A north shore realtor who has two cars, one a Nash four years old and the other a high priced "eight," thought he"d like to try out the new "400." He was given the opportunity and the result was somewhat startling. He might have traded in the old Nash for one of the new models, but he didn't do that. He sold the high priced car and has an order for one of the "400" series. "That ought to convince anyone that the new Nash is -an easy rider" remarked Mr. Springer. When cars are parked and space is limited, the considerate motorist will give thought to those who will come after him, and will not park carelessly, so as to waste space.
