FEWER "CHUMMIES".

MODEL THAT IS NOW RARELY SEEN.

Ins the chummy body heen a failure? The question is prompted by the undeniable fact that what promised once to become all the rage has suddenly declined in popularity, and is now almost ex- tinct, while it would be perfectly -safe to wager that these for whom. the type of body was created are still just as keen on it as ever. Why, then, is the type dying out?

The answer is provided by the fact that light cars now-a-daya are selling more, than ever on their appearance. It costs very nosrly as much to construct a chummy body as it does to turn out a full four-seater, and if they fare placed side by side on a show stand the full four-soater looks by far the more attractive vehicle. When tho would-be supporter of the ohummy 808s them both he says to himself: Why should I not go in for the more pretentious, vehicle it will cost me no more, has greater accommodation,..and. looks thore like a real car? But the whole point is this--the family man is not osscutially, the most enthusiastic supporter of the chummy model.

LUGGAGE FOR THE FAMILY: A As a rule he has a dead loud as well as a live load to carry and the luggage for the family, to- gether with a couple of infants, constitutes a very tight fit in the rear soat. It would be more cor roct to say that for a man, hig wife and two children the average chummy body is really unsuitable and that a full four-seater, com- plete with a rear luggage grid, is more the sort of thing he wants To whom, then does the chummy model appeal? Thia query may be answered by asking anbthor, Why was the dickey-seat invant- ed? This seat is usually uncom fortable when compared with the front seats it is not protected from the elements, and when open it usually detracts from the general appearance of the car. It is intended, of course, as an occasional seat and nothing more; the sort of accommodation you offer to a friend in an omergency; but, with the cushions in place the remaining accom modation is very limited; in factį sometimes it is difficult to stow away, a medium-sized ́guít care Sithout Jeaving the lid of the diokoy-seat open..

How much botter the idea of chummy body. The occasion seat is still there, with the adred advantage that it is under cover in foul weather; the lines of such a vehicle are not ungraceful, and, when unoccupied the chammy compartment forms a capacious receptacle into whiot plenty of

luggage, including suit cases that fluenced by the opinions of the| will not go into the average family man, for whom, in the first dickoy, can be packed.. Let us place, the chummy model was hope, then, that manufacturers désigned. The type still enjoys will not overlook the market that the distinction of being popular, still exists for the chummy body and is, reality, far and away bet- and that, they will not be in- ter than the dickey-seat..
