the FORD SALES co.
Automobiles For Sale and Hire.

In the automobile industry, as well
as every other important line of trade,
it is the man behind the business as
we'll as the public demand for the
products handled that makes for un-
qualified success. True, the car must
have merit. but it is the man at the
business wheel who makes things run
with vigor and smoothness. Through
out this part of Florida the name OF
Mr.. N. ]. Tilghman, Jr., stands for al
that is reliable and efficient in motor
dom. He is a recognized authority on
all things pertaining to the automo-
biles which he sells and repairs, and
is at the same time citizen of wide
popularity and marked integrity. Both
in the civic affairs of the community
and throughout commercial circles his
record is one of honor.
Under Mr.. Tilghman's able direc
torship the Ford agency here has en-
jcyed steady growth and remarkable
prosperity. Though the agency bears
the name OF the Ford Sales Company,
Rambler cars are also handled and
are meeting with much favor. Mr..
Tilghman sold the first new car in

The Ford car is moderately
priced machine that has won a high
place for itself in the esteem of the
general public. No manufactured
product has ever been accorded wide
popularity without bedrock quality
behind it. The solid feature on which
the Ford has gained its prestige is
the splendid quality of the steel used
in its construction This is the cele-
brated "Vanadium" metal. and no

Industry, combined with intelligence
and foresight, having been the under
lying principles involved with the sue
cess OF leaders in Palatkas CONNER
cial prestige. in no instance has re
ward and renown come more worthily
than to the founders OF the Palatka
Automobile and Supply Company
The business was incorporated i'll Au-
gust, 1910, with Mr.. T. J. Barnett as
president, and Mr.. David Benbow as
secretary and treasurer The location
of the firm on South Second street is
one of the finest in town, and because
of its superior equipment to handle
automobile and engine repairing IN
all its phases, the company naturally
enjoys splendid patronage through
out the county.
Since their advent in the local field
unusual opportunities have presented
themselves, and Messrs. Barnett and
Benbow have reached out and grasped
them with precision and promptness.
Without exaggcration, both of these
wide-awake and capable gentlemen
may be said to have been thoroughly
identified with the progress OF the
town during the years Of its more re
cent and noticeable expansion. The
growth of the automobile industry has
been a modern phenomenon which
has had a far-reaching effect upon
commercial life generally, No one
can measure the subtle influences OF
the winged car on all lines of prog
ress, for it has been a "civilizing'
agent in the broadest meaning of the
term. In a far more intimate sense
than the railroad, it has linked ham
let to city, and farm to markct-place.
Good roads have spread out before it.
and peace and plenty have sprung up
in its wake. Palatka owes not 4 little
of its Importance to the fact that it is
the automobile center OF this part of
the State. And the concern of which
this article treats is noteworthy in be
ing the best equipped plant of its kind
in the city.
Starting with a floor space of a
trihe more than 1900 square feet, they
have gradually increased their facili-
ties until they now occupy floor space

WILLIAM FURNACE
Hardware.

Palatka is widely known in whole
sale centers as one Of the best hard
ware markets in the State, as people
from a very wide agricultural terri
tory come here to buy all needed sup
plies in this line. As natural result
some of the most enterprising hard
ware concerns to be found through
the length and breadth of the PENN
sula are located in the Gem City.
Among the best of these is the bust
ness bearing the name OF William
Turnage. Though Mr.. Turnage has
been located in Palatka less than two
wears, he has succeeded in building
ND remarkably fine trade, and has
won the respect and confidence OF the
towns best people He is, native OF
Louisiana, and has lived in Florida
for the past fourteen years, spending
good deal of that time in Miami,
where his reputation in the mercantile
business was of the highest. He was
also a travelling salesman for prom
inent stove factory for one year. Mr.,
Turnage possesses a very attractive
personality, which is one OF his chief
assets in trade-building, and is al
ready one of the most popular men,
bers Of the local Board OF Trade.
He keeps four employees busy in his
store all the time, and will be obliged
to add to his forces very shortly il
the increase in his patronage bears
out present indications. Previous tc
opening at his present location in the
Tilghman Building, Mr. Turnage was
associated with the Kennerley Hard
ware Company, just across the way
Mr.. Turnage's place of business may
be styled a model of its kind Both
street floor and upper story are
occupied. with an aggregate floor
space of 1900 square feet. A freight
lift furnishes convenient means OF
connection between the two depart
ments When he opened in Palatka
the lower floor furnished ample room
for his stock, but with the steady in
crease in business from month to
month, the upper story was called
INTO requisition A gratifying increase
Of IS per cent, in the volume OF trade
has already been noted this year.

tougher malleable steel has ever been
forged Showiness and specious nm
ish have been left entirely out of con-
sideration by the Ford Company, and
the result is that buyers get actual
wearing quality stripped of every
false adjunct. There are innumer-
able enthusiasts to claim that the
Ford is today the best car on the
market for the price. And the enor-
nous sales throughout the country
bear out these claims
1t is due directly to the persistent
and intelligent efforts of Mn Thigh
man that the Ford sales in Putnam
county and the surrounding territory
have shown such a gratifying increase
of late years. The Rambler agency
was taken over last January, and has
also prospered under his manage
ment. In fact, since Mr.. Tilghman's
advent in the automobile field in Pa
latka, the business has tripled in all
its branches, and today is on par
with many towns three times its size.
Under these circumstances, no sane
observer could deny that the Ford
Sales Company has not been an i'm
portant factor in the industrial de-
velopment OF the Gem City.
Possessed of a genial and sunny
disposition, Mr.. Tilghman has never
failed to make personal friends Of all
his customers. His place of business
is center for visiting motorists and
local bugs" who wish to keep posted
on all the latest happenings of the
trade. A motor livery is operated in
connection with the regular business.
If one wishes to see the sights of the
town under attractive and comfort
able circumstances, he cannot do bet
ter than to make arrangements for
such a trip at the Tilghman garage,
Every attention is shown strangers.
