Trucks from the ground up—not an adapted passenger car part in them; built for work; built to last and pile up profits for owners; hundreds of useless parts and hundreds of pounds of dead weight eliminated; strong, sturdy, hard- working assets to any man or business, AND THIS. THE ACCOMPLISHMENT: In only eight years Stewart has become one of the world leaders. It has fought the daily battle of business for owners and won out—be- cause it is a stronger truck, simpler to operate, more economical on gasoline, oil, tire and repair costs. Starting with one on trial, Stewart fleets have grown rapidly—one, two, four, and more— all working and earning; piling up profits for their owners; spreading the Stewart reputation for quality and economy. Factory output has been more than doubled this year. Stewarts are in use in 800 American cities, on hundreds of farms, and in 88 foreign'countries: Stewart Trucks have won—by costing less to run Capacities: 3%4-ton, 1-ton, 114-ton, 2-ton, 214-ton, 31-ton ROESCH MOTOR CAR CO., WASHINGTON, Third at Bell OREGON AND IDAHO Elliott DISTRIBUTERS 6117 ‘i turned angrily | it in certainly odd.
