Harry w. Jameson, who. as he puts
It himself, has lived In a trunk for the
past five years" and has covered every

tative Of the Paige-Detroit Motor Car
Company has come to New York as

settle down now and devote all his at
tention and energies to Paige represen-
tatives in the territory controlled by the
DALEY Brothers, who represent the
Paige Detroit passenger cars, and trucks
In this section. He Is a valuable ad-
dition TO the strong Paige organization
that has been built here.
Mr. Jameson calls n spade spade.
His success has been due to the fact that
he has never made promises to dealers
that he didn't keep. For many of
them, and always at their request, he
has been kind Of a ,super-manager. His
experience with conditions all over the
country has given him a very complete
knowledge Of the way to do business
successfully. In speaking of him, the
dealers all say:
when automobile conditions were
most uncertain we always knew how to
cut our cloth because Harry always
told US frankly what to expect in the
way of deliveries"

MAKES 1NTERC1TY RECORD.
Msrmon Required Only II Ia
Hours for All Miles.

J. NJ. Sterling of Pittsburg recently set
up a new road record between Pittsburg
and New York by making the run with
and one-third hours, He made the re-
turn trip In snow and rain in less than
thirteen hours, which IL about as fast
as they used to do II with the roads in
the best of condition in the remote past
1918. Mr.. Clipson is vice-president OF
Sterling, Carpenter & Clipson Company,
Marmon distributors Of Pittsburg.
A record OF seven and a half hours,
plus fve minutes, was set UP between
Pittsburg and Philadelphia, n distance
of 500 miles. Az far as the records show
this Is the best time ever made by a
standard stock touring car Of any make.
The entire distance from. the steel city
To Manhattan IL All miles and the jour-
ney was made at the rate of thirty six
and one-half miles per hour In spite Of
the various mountain ranges OF Penn
sylvania. The journey was made in
high gear all the distance. and Mr.. Clip
sons car scaled the Laurel Ridge at
forty-three miles an hour, though this
range rises 2.400 feet. McConnelfsburg
Mountain, considered the hardest pull In
western Pennsylvania, was topped at
thirty-three miles an hour, which should
be quite swift enough for any one. con-
siderins the turning. twisting road.
This run was not made as 0 stunt"
but as n matter Of transportation. Mr..
Sterling says he prefers the motor car
to the Pullman and he wanted to get to
New York In hurry.

with conditions swinging back to

natural that this increased individual

lie TO avoid extravsgances. with the
result that the Individual buying power
OF this country has been Sreatly In
