Sunbonnet Club
With Mrs. Young

der by the president, Mrs. John

session, Mrs. Brown gave a most
interesting talk, choosing as her
subject a few of the small birds
that are permanent residents of
the state. They were the Carolina
wren, house wren, Carolina
chickadee, tufted titmouse, cedar
waxwing, goldfinch, song spar
row, true sparrow, ruby-throated
humming bird, red-headed wood
pecker, and the crow, the black
sheep, but most inteligent.
The importance of feeding
birds, especially during severe

starvation to a bird.

Rambler won this groat
distinction over all other
cars. How come? Read
these comments from the
Motor Trend experts who
tested theAmerican ( Clas-
sic and Ambassador:
1. You get room for six 6-foot
ers. “Interiors of both,Classic
and Ambassador are roomy and
comfortable ... plenty of leg-
room.** «>
2. “Classic and Ambassador
have cleaner, more functional
design... apparent from almost
any angle.”
3*-‘The basic-engined Classic
gave an overall average of 23.1
mac per gallon.”
4. “The Ambassador V-8 is a
sportier, more performance-
- oriented vehicle” (test car had
opt. 270 HP V-8. 250 HPstd.).
5. “RamWer is how one-up on
every oth^ dkr^w .Jolh its new
sports-car option,'Twin-Stick
Floor Shift with overdrive.
€■ New Advanced Unit Con
struction .. .“results in a unit
so strong it’ll take punishment
longer and, naturally, hold its
resale value.” ^
7a Rambler’s exclusive “reclin
ing bucket seats with headrests
are options well worth the
extra expenditure.”
8a ’’Rough tpads can be
stormed with confidence. There
isn't any pitch or choppiness
noticeable.”
9a All Ramblers have, in effect,
“two separate braking systems
for the front and rear wheels.
If either one should suddenly
fail, the remaining one can bring
the car to a safe stop.” Self-
adjusting brakes standard.
10. 'Quality has always been
one of American Motors’largest
selling points and continues to
be in the new models.”
11. The sedans’ trunks SHL.
“large with a good amouht of
usable space.”
12. “We've never seen a heater
that produced more heat. At its
maximum it should be up to
amr climate.” «
13. “In addition to long-rec
ognized owner-appreciation fea
tures ... the factory has doubled
the new-car warranty to 24
months or 24,000 milest.”
14. Rambler’s “an even better
buy this year,” according to
Motor Trend experts. Here are
some outstanding examples: the
American 220 for $1846*, the
Classic Six 550 for $20SS*,
the Ambassador V-8 880 for
$2465* (all 2-door sedans).
