tremendous difficulties encountered
throughout the entire trip, the car
emerged without mechanical break.
The same car later descended to the
bottom of Grand Canyon, an amazing
journey over rocks and mountain
streams into gorge more than one
mile deep. The Death Valley Dodge"
is an ordinary Cur, no different from
any others turned out at the factory
and its wonderful accomplishments
are but another testimonial to the sta

general.

them out rapidly enough to supply the

AS DEALERS
Realize Great Possibilities in
Automobile Field Of
Thriving Community.

Recognition of Hopkinsville as a
thriving community that gives prom
Use of big opportunities in the auto
mobile field, has led Dodge Brothers
to establish representation here with
Duffer-Cox Motor Co. as the newly
appointed dealers. The Dutfer-Cox
Co. has just been notified that they
now have the exclusive selling rights
in this territory.
The remarkable popularity OF the
Dodge Brothers car has caused auto
mobile men all over the country to
clamor for the sales privileges, but the
Dodge Brothers policy of quality in
selling methods as well as quality in
car, requires a painstaking investiga-
Hon in every instance before a selec-
tion is made. In the Duffer-Cox Mo-
tor Co. Dodge Brothers have a firm
on whom they believe they may rely
for both fairness and activity.
Particular attention has been focus
ed ON the Dodge Brothers car, both
the roadster and touring type, during
the u. S. army's activities along the
Mexican border. II Is said fully 200
cars were being used by officers and
men during the border patrol and pu-
nitive expedition. Gen. Pershing
adopted the car for his personal use
and directed his entire staffto do like
wise. His reason lay solely in the
|, fact that the Dodge Brothers car had
proved itself dependable under any
conditions. Numerous instances are
on record where Dodge Brothers
motor cars were responsible for the
saving of lives, both civilians and SOL
J diers. 50

GROUND HOG HAS
MADE IDEA GOOD

The grounding saw his shadow six
weeks ago and retired for his &C
customed slumber. At the end of
that time he finds March stormy and
conditions unchanged. The idea that
six weeks of winter would follow has
certainly come true. Perhaps the
grounding will not attempt to give
another such period, although it looks
very much like it at this time. There
is plenty of snow on the ground and
little indication of its sliding into
the river.
