Packard Makes Hare
Vice-President of Factory

The election of Emlcn S. Hare to a
vice presidency of the Packard Motor
Car Company is announced by Alvan
Macauley, president and general man
ager. Mr.. Hare will still be president
OF the Packard branch in New York
but will go to Detroit to live within a
few weeks.
The rapid development of the Pack
ard company's work for the govern
ment has absorbed Mr.. Macauley's time
and energies to an extent that war
ranted the creation of the new Office
for which Mr. Hare has been chosen.
A little more than year ago the Pack
ard business was the paratively
cars and trucks. together with the
maintenance of an organization for SER
vice on those products. To-day it has,
besides these concerns, the manufact-
ure of airplane engines and airplanes
for the government and the making of
repair parts for those products. The
result is not only an increased volume
of business, but vastly more COM
pick business.
Hare has been with the Packard COM
pany only since January l, 1916. He
began as a special sales representative
Of both the New York and Philadelphia
branches. his success IN 0eVeloplng
national truck accounts, such as the
telephone, express, oil and large mer-
camille business, so distinguished him
that within six months he was given
supervision of the truck department of
the Packard Motor Company of New
York. A month later he was promoted
to general manager, and two months
later was made president.
Hare viii be thirty-six years old in
November. He is a graduate of the
University of Pennsylvania, class of
'06. In his undergraduate days he
made the varsity eleven, and was cap
tain of the Red and Blue baseball team
for two years.

Sometimes the prestige Of an old concern is considered valuable trade mark and asset, but the public gen. orally retains very little impression of what has happened in by-eone days and Tn most cases the success Of business depends upon the reputation that it makes for itself and for the service it furnishes the public. Con- sequently, while the Gates Mercantile Company is one of the oldest establish ments in the county, aside from the large experience 1t has gained, the as sociation has very little to do with the completeness Of the stock they arc carrying and the appointment of the business.
