Jetton of Quinton, Okla, after taking # trip thru portions of Oklahoma, Missiesippl, Arkansas and Ten. nesses. Jetton was convinced when the trip drew to a clove, that his “boat” was made more for mud than land. Caught in severe rainstorms of a fresh highway under construction in Missiasipp!, Jetton made most of the distance in high gear, In «spite of a heavy camping outfit and four passengers aboard, the car never faltered, altho Jetton was afraid the car would pull in two pieces. After taking. the mud tn high, Jetton washed the car which showed no signe of the rough going. AUTO DEMAND ON INCREASE Davis Motor Car Co.

Who can say how largely the motor car has jeon- tributed to this vast increase in| our national earning power? “The motor car has replaced mil- lions of horse-drawn vehicles. And it has replaced them with transpor: tation of @ vastly superior sort. The motor car has given us a hew standard of living, and new stand ards of business, new opportunftios for self development, for recreation, and for the creation of wealth.) “We in the Industry oun: bounded faith in the future of] the automobile.
