day the kissel Kar is firmly established in the state. and the number of them in Arizona runs far up into the hundreds. Although there are more cars of some other makes in the state, the Kissel kar has sold in Arizona almost to the limit of it's supply. for it is built for quality, not quantity. and the number made each year is limited.
 As a fitting climax to it's renowned all-year car idea. the Kissel company has recently introduced the Kissel Hundred Point Six This car repre- sents the top crest of the company's progress in the art of motor -car mak- ing and contains probably more per- fections of the business than any other car on the market. With the perfect Kissel all-year top, the Kissel reliable power-plant and chassis, with a body containing all the successful features of automobile making in the last few years, with none of the freak features, the Hundred Point Six is indeed a car worthy of the Kissel name.
 The KiSsel comes in all the standard types of motor car. However, it has the added advantage of a tWo-in-o one car, for with the all-year top a touring car becomes a sedan; a roadster becomes a coupe; a victoria becomes town car With all the improvements the car in- dustry has developed, and with the Kissel guarantee of freedom from all defects in manufacture. the car readily becomes one har dto do without. And | it's price, when the years of service il

[ chose the kissel Kar. picking out that make as one most likely to obtain last ing results, even while selling less rap idly than some cars of cheaper and less dependable make. MT. Reubens results have amply proved the value of his choice
 Thus Mir Reuben first established. three years ago today, his Kissel agency. It was first known as the Kis- sel kar company. but later changed to the G. H. Reuben company MT. Reu- ben has been in sole control since it's | foundation, and built the building the company now occupies, at 235 North Central avenue, to be the permanent home of the Kissel Kar in Phoenix In 1917. MT. Reuben added the Dort car to his agency. and later the Doble steam car and the Federal truck. He also has the Arizona agency for the Kissel truck.
 It is now MT. Reubens boast that not once since he has been in the mo- tor car business in Phoenix has he | changed in the makes of cars he rep resents. while other dealings have | switched from car to car.
 During the three years he has been in the business in this city, Mr. Reuben has played a prominent part in civic affairs. While too busy to mingle much in the social world-for Mir Reu- ben is a firm believer in work, and can be found at his offices from ten to twelve hours a day-he has become a well known figure in the business ! world. He has always been ready to help all he can in any movement to | better and improve Phoenix, and has i-been one of the city's biggest boosters

 MT. Reuben is one of the greatest good roads boosters in the state, and
 is a firm advocate of a permanent mo-
 tor highway directly connecting Los Angeles and Phoenix. In his frequent
 trips to the coast he has preached the
 good roads gospel, and has spared no
 opportunity to boost the city of Phoe-
 nix and the state of Arizona.
 Since the war began, MT. Reuben has
 always been found ready to sacrifice
 his interests to serve the cause of the government He has taken an active
 part in all Liberty loan campaigns. and : has subscribed generously to. each is- 7 sue.

K|SSEL TRUCK HAS
 EXCELLENCE IF THE
 K|SSEL MOTOR CAR

There are few motor corporations in this country which have been able to produce both a motor car and a motor truck and make both of them perfectly successful. Yet this is what the Kissel Motor company has done.
 In addition to manufacturing a mo- tor car which is quality personified, or rather machinified, the Kissel company has put on the market a motor truck which comes up to the full Kissel standards; a motor truck such as is seldom found in the ordinary course of motor truck construction.
 The Kissel truck is the bearer of one proud distinction: nothing new can be said of it in the way of praise. Like the company which makes it, and the car which is it's half brother, it is a machine that needs no praise but that given it by it's own owners.
 Little need therefore be said in re- gard to the Kissel truck. It has plenty of followers to speak for it, and if they are lacking the trucks are fully capable of speaking for themselves with their work Like the Kissel products in

Kissel custom built Six. a car designed to surpass even the hundred point six in excellence. This car is designed to give the maximum in luxury and comfort with the smallest possible ex- pense, and will soon be placed on the market It will appear in three models, four passenger speedster, four -passen- gerroadster, and seven passenger tour ing. It contains all the Kissel features of production, coupled with the latest custom built body work and detail. /
 With the announcement of the new custom six, the Kissel Kar company made the statement that owing to the quality of the car and the great pains of workmanship involved. Production would be limited. This typifies the Kis- sel system of motor car manufactur- ing: sacrificing quantity to achieve the utmost in quality.

After several years with the Sprouw company, MT. Reuben once more en- tered a new field, this time as a sales man for s. F. Bowser and Company, of Fort Wayne, Ind, with which he was connected for the greater part of thir- teen years. During that time, MT. Reu- ben became one of the foremast sales men of the company, and served in various offices of the Pacemakers' Club, composed of 800 Bowser sales men. Part of his first period with the Bowser company was spent in charge of the company's office in Pitts burg, Pa
 After six or seven years with the Bowser comrr ny, MT Reuben, then To- cated in Texas, severed his connection temporarily and entered the law school of the University of Texas, where he was graduated as full fledged mem Der of the bar. After graduating, how ever he decided not to take up the practice of law, and returned to the Bowser company, which he represented several years in Georgia and on the Pacific coast.
 Previous to this, Mir. Reuben had married, in 1906, Miss Leda Katherine Elliott of Louisville, Ky, a niece oi Judge Bruce, a member of the Jefferson Davis cabinet and prominent Kentuck- ian. Their only child, a girl, was born while MT. Reuben was attending Tex as university.
 | MT. Reuben terminated his career with the Bowser company as their rep resentative in Arizona. After serving some time in that post he decided tG make his home permanently in Phoe- nix, being moved by a desire to leave the road and settle down where he could enjoy the society of his family He then decided to take up the motor car business.
 Before obtaining the agency for any motor car here, MT. Reuben made al extensive tour of the east, visiting z number of the leading motor car fac I tories. to select a car to represent ir the new field of Arizona. He finall,

NEW CANNERY IN OPERATION.
Patriotic Women Lend Hand In
Solving Labor Problem.

The new plant of the Rising Sun
Packing Co. began operations Mon
day afternoon on the pack of corn.
The plant, which is located just
south of the railroad, is an extensive
establishment and is equipped with
the most up-to-date machinery for
the rapid packing of corn on a large
scale.
There, has been many a hitch in
getting the machinery to run
smoothly, and large amount of
corn has gone to waste, but things
are going along at lively rate now.
One of the big problems has been
the securing of adequate help, and
an appeal was made to the w. G. T..
U. and Red Cross ladies on Wednes-
day, with the result that about
twenty of our patriotic women and
girls are now lending helping hand
by husking and cutting corn off Of
the cob.
The management of the plant
appreciate the part these noble
helpers are playing in this time OF
need, and are doing everything in
their power to make working con-
ditions the best. The tasks are
light, surroundings sanitary, wages
good and employment will be given
all who apply.
