The industry chiefly responsible for the high grade nickel, chrome, molybdenum and other steel alloys now extensively used in the better motor cars, as well as in other fine machinery. “A parts board takes the mystery out of the motor car,” says O. C. Hutchinson, general sales manager of the Hupp Motor Car corporation. “It gives you the facts that count. Buying a car with knowledge of what is in it, is the sound, business- like way.

They are intertt upon completion of a round trip journey to Mexico City, something that has never be- fore been accomplished, and a jour- ney that will, for the most part, traverse country without roads throughout mountain and desert. The complete mileage is expected to run over 2,000 miles. Hawley explains his motive for the Mexican trip by saying that he wants to blaze the round trip trail and perhaps uncover trade possi- bilities. He states that he selected Casper Motor Co.
