POPE QUALITY
PLUS CRANE SERVICE.
Lester S. Crane Locates in Atlanta in
the Auto Business.

L. S. Crane, styling himself as indi-
vidual dealer for Pope Hartford pleas
ure cars, trucks and public service
wagons, also OilZum, for motor lubri-
cation, is the latest addition to Allan
tas automobile quality. Mr. Crane
comes to Atlanta from Hartford, Conn,
wher the Pope factory is located, says
the Atlanta Constitution of Feb. IL.
He has been a Pope owner for sew
eral years, and if ever there was a
man enthusiastic over anything, he is
about a Pope Hartford machine-and
it is an enthusiasm so sincere and
deep rooted that one does not have to
stay around him long to find it out.
This is his first fling at the auto
mobile business, as he was engaged in
another line of business in Hartford,
and it was only after it became ad-
visable to move south that he enter
tanned the idea of locating here as a
Pope dealer.
He has made a good start and is
laying the foundation for a mighty
good business.
The first thing he did, instead of
going out to try to sell cars, was to
look UP every Pope owner in the city
and invite them to let him have their
cars In order that he might take them
to his place Of business, where they
were taken down, inspected and put in
Al condition by expert Pope mechan-
les that he had brought here with him
from the factory.
In this connection, it might be added
that ne found several Popes here in
use as old as Eve years old, and they
only needed the overhauling he gave
them to run as good as they ever did.
