The multiple disc clutch is soft and velvoty in operation. The car starts with ease and smooth- ness, without jerk, shock or jar. The shifting of gears is easy and quiet. After getting under way, which is only a matter of mo- ments, one rarely has occasion to change gears unless at times, perhaps, to Meet some unusual or extreme condition. The steering is steady and positive: the _natural inclination of the car is to travel straioht ahead. The brakes are powerful, yet easy of applica- tion. In operation you enjoy the widest flexibility. From less than three mites an ticiur in crowded city streets and congested traffic—wihout change of gears and without nursing or espcially skiHful manipulation—to more than sixty miles an hour on the open highway has been demonstrated to be the range. The Cadillac Eight is a car of practically throt- tle control, of rapid and easy acceleration. From a snail's pace to the speed of the wind, without apparent effort, without hesitation, without tremor. Comfort is sabserved in the highest degree by the absence of vibration, the soft upholstery, the yielding springs, large wheels and tires, 1The 'ellsY control, the unusual fielcibility, the extreme smodthnets accentuated by the Worm bevel gears, and the quietness of MatiOn.
