the United States, covering every nook of the country. The Jordan has climbed every hill that could be climbed, and has established a record for economy that has pleased their owners.
 The factory replacements on the first thousand cars amounted to only $3S7. The manufacturers claim every good thing for the Jordan chassis, claiming that it embodies all units known that are useful and efficient. AS to some of the material used the Jordan people point with pride to the parts used in their car, to wit: Continental, Timken, Stewart Warner, Gemmer, Bosch, stromberg. Fedders, Boyce. Parish, Bi- jur, Willard, Hotchkiss, Sparton, Ne verleek, Firestone Vanadium and Solar. These they say, stand for finality with engineers.
 Accuracy of Assembly
 The third principle is accuracy of assembly and inspection.
 Jordan inspection begins with the choice of materials which go into every part, and does not end when the car is delivered to the customer. Jordan knows that economy in manufacturing lies in fixing the responsibility for mis- takes where it belongs and the eco-

JORDAN MAGIC
 STORY BASED
 ONF|GURE "z''

Such success has attended the sale of the Jordan cars by the Babbitt- Poison company in Phoenix and else where that it has caused comment throughout the field. The Jordan is a car that ,as a remarkable record It is a record of success from the begin ming, because, as the manufacturers say, they had good car. or principle to start with.
 It has been largely through this good beginning that the Babbitt- company has met with such notable success. The manufacturers recently got out a poster entitled The Magic Story of the Jordan" which tells lot about the Jordan in brief space, if such large type had not been used, but as it is it takes the space of small slzed wall to tell the story. The story reads something like this:
 Seven is the magic number i'll the story of the Jordan. Seven men, each one skilled through years of experience in how to meet the problems of the manufacturer, head the Jordan organ iZation.
 There are seven distinctive custom style bodies and the Jordan has seven principles. The first principle is, pleasing the owner. People buying motor cars have right to exercise in- dividual taste. Jordan body lines are distinctive and Jordan colors are op- tional. The bodies are finished in striking shades, including Pershing Gray, Liberty Blue Italian Tan, Jordan Maroon, Venetian Green, Mercedes Red and Egyptian Bronze.
 The seven distinctive style bodies, designed to fit a single chassis of fin- ished mechanical excellence. comprise the Jordan line.
 AS to the seven fundamental princi- l ples. They are the result of ten years constant study of what the dealer and owner have right to expect of a man. ufacturer and form the basis of the 1 Jordan success. l The second principle of the Jordan l is performance and service. Two 1 thousand Jordan cars are in service il

J. S. Amundsen

J. S. Amundsen, secretary treas urer of the Babbitt- Poison com pany, has been associated with the Babbitts since 1901. He was trans ferred from Flagstaff to Williams in 1907, as manager of Babbitt Brothers company. Here this com pany was consolidated with Poison Brothers Mercantile company in 1908 and the Babbitt- Poison com pany was established.
 He established branch of the Babbitt- Poison company at Ash Fork in 1911 and later the Babbitt- Poison company in Phoenix. He was general manager of the con- pany until April, 1916, when he was transferred to kingman, as mana ger of the Arizona Stores company, which the Rabbits had just ac- quired. These stores-at Kingman, Oatman and Yucca-as branches of Babbitt Brothers are doing the largest general mercantile business in Northwestern Arizona.

It has been the policy of the com- pany to foster local enterprise and improvements, as it is far-sighted enough to see that, while it will not be the sole beneficiary of time and money spent in this way. it will bene fit by the generally increased pros perity of the community. It is upon these broad lines that the company has built up it's business and gained the friendship of it's patrons. By the continuance of the same policy, the management announces, it hopes to retain that friendship and keep ex- pandinng.

COMFORT AT ANY SPEED B|G ITEM
 IN HARMON CARS

The Rabbit Poison company, which recently took the agency for the Mar mon line of cars. has been asked to tell in a few words something about the comfort at any speed of the Marmon 34. This comfort is due to many things but the matter of springs is here emphasized:
 The Marmon 34 is HOO pounds lighter than other cars of its class. yet it rides easier than the heaviest cars.
 One reason why this is true Is be- cause the Marmon 34 has compound cantilever rear springs mounted trans versley with a double wedge-shaped cam cenetered between.
 But springs, no matter how fngeni-' ously constructed or suspended, are not, alone responsible for perfect ease and equilibrium.
 Here scientific principles. originally applied, have given the Mar1non SA . nicety of balance that distinguishes 1t among it's competitors as a trained athlete, poised on his toes is dis tinguished from the awkward begin ner.
 And the result: tire wear diminished; spring strain minimized; side sway abolished, and comfort assured at any speed and under all conditions. &

nomy in selling lies in the enthusiasm of satisfied owners.
 Jordan cars are produced in limited numbers, assembled with extreme care and inspected to the limit. This ac- counts for the fact that Jordan dealers and owners are relieved of the burden of heavy service expense.
 The fourth principles fair price t< the customer and fair profit to the dealer. Time was when the dealer had difficulty in making the necessary number of trades. The Jordan sales proposition solved this.
 Time was when a dealer maintained 8 large force of mechanics to keep tho cars running. Jordan high grade units and careful inspection and assembly solved this.
 Time was when dealers worried from year to year over the retention of im- portant territory after they had mad. a substantial success for the manu. facturer. The Jordan sales proposition solved this. The Jordan has nevex closed a contract with a dealer unth deliveries could be made positive.
 Dealers of Character
 The sixth principle is character ot dealers. Only substantial business men are included in the Jordan deal CTS organization. They are men, who because of their judgment and experi- ence. are qualified to permanently suc- ceed in the business. This is why, say the manufacturers, that wherever sold it is found that the Jordan is repre- sented by high grade business men, who stand for the Jordan policy and ideals.
 The seventh principle is Future Policy" The policy of the Jordan is to grow gradually through intelligent cooperation with dealers and by culti- vating the good will and enthusiasm of the owners. One hundred manufac- turers were counted among the leaders in the industry when the Jordan started. Jordan passed 49 of them in quantity of sales within the first six months.
 Now the magic story of the Jordan is being told by successful dealers and satisfied owners throughout the world.
 The seven models of the Jordan are. the Jordan seven passenger sport limousine, the Jordan seven passenger sedan, the Jordan four passenger brougham, the Jordan six passeneer town car, the Jordan sport roadster, the Jordan four passenger sport car, the Jordan seven passenger touring car.

GENUINE |ND|ANWARE
 AT FLAGSTAFF STORE

There is absolutely no doubt as to the genuineness of any article of Indian ware exhibited or sold at the Flagstaff store iof Babbitt Brothers. All goods are purchased direct from the Indians by Rabbit Brothers per sonal representatives, permanently To- cated at the different trading posts of the several reservations. To ade- quately supply the wholesale and re- tail trade it is necessary for Bab- bitt Brohers to always keep on hand about 15,000 pounds of Navajo rugs and blankets.
 The Navajos only use the best grades of wool and dyes in their blankets. No two Navajo rugs are alike, as the Indian women who do the weaving never follow set de- sign.
 The best and most artistic baskets are those made by the Apaches, on their reservation near the White and by the Pima Indians on their reservation on the north side of the Grand Canyon Silverware, plaques and pottery are purchased by Babbitt's from the Hopis.

W|NS[OW WSTORE
 OLDEST BRANCH
 OPENED IN 1887

In the spring of 1897 the first of Babbitt Brothers big family of stores was born in Winslow, and was named Rabbit Brothers Mercantile con- pany. This was a big name for a small child but the sponsors were far sighted enough to see & big future for the youngster, and unlike the many George Washingtons and Obraham Loncolns who have failed miserably to live up to the regulations of their illustrious namesakes, this young fel low has been & credit to the family. Next April he will attain his major ity, and while he will not overshadow his father at Flagstaff, he will stand beside the old man, 8 credit to the family traditions.
 At the time the young mercantile company appeared on the scene Winslow was but little more than g. tank station. Today it is one of the busiest and best towns in Northern est and best towns inestaoinshrdlun Arizona Contrary to the usual small railroad town, Winslow has become an oasis on tho face of the red desert. Winslow has grown into @ small city of homes and happy people. Its schools and churches are among the best and most substantial in the state, and no matter how fast or slow the growth, Babbitt Brothers Mer- cantile company has always kept ill the lead, until today it occupies a store building with 11,2O0 square feet of floor space and 8 concrete base ment of the same size, together with several warehouses and sheds, prob ably a total of 35,0O0 square feet. Several Stores In One While the establishment Is in real ity a western merchandise store in effect, it is departmentized and run as several distinct stores under one roof and one management. Every thing that is necessary for the equip ment and maintenance of small | house, or a big ranch, is carried in stock.
 1 Its retail system is based on ser vice and quality, as is its wholesale department, and the buyer of spool of thread or box of crackers is ac- corded the same courteous treatment as the purchasing agent for ths largest ranch, trading post or con- tracting outfit.
 1 For the past five years zthe Wins low business has been managed by Lawrence W. Quinlan, better known as Larry" MT. Quinlan was pres ent at the birth of the baby store, all most twentyone years ago. but only
 management in the, early spring of
 1913. Under his able supervision
 many innovations in store manage
 ment have been instituted.
 Among these improvements are the meetings of employees every month
 when there are general discussions
 regarding the business policy of the
 store. At theses meetings the newest
 employe is listened to with as much
 interest as the oldest department
 head, and if his suggestions are good
 they are adapted in the running of
 the store insofar as they can be made
 to apply.
 Own Fire Department
 The building and stock are pro-
 tected by a trained fire department
 of employees. A recent addition to
 this part of the establishment was an Ajax chemical engine.
 The company has always taken a lead in the welfare of the town and
 many of the recent improvements and projects in the vicinity were initiated and assisted by it.

INDIAN TRADERS BUY
 FROM THE BABB|TIS.

Babbitt Brothers call attention of the Indian traders of Arizona to the fact that they have at he Flagsaff establishment a carefully selected line of merchandise especially adapted to meet the demands of their par ticular trade. A cordial invitation is extended to all merchants and traders to visit the new wholesale depart ment at Flagstaff, whether to buy or simply look. !
