GOOD Will TRIUMPHANT Under TEST

AS this message is being written,
Dodge Brothers daily, weekly and
monthly production, is at the highest
point in its history.
The most casual sort of inquiry will
satisfy you that this production is
being absorbed as it is delivered.
Within sight and sound as we write,
great addition to Dodge Brothers
immense works, is being rushed to
completion.
The interesting thing about this sit
uation is, that it is not likely that a
half hundred people have ever
bought Dodge Brothers Motor Car
just because they wanted motor car.
Of the more than half a million who
have bought 1.-THE overwhelming
majority did so because of the name
it bore.
It has always been treated, by the
American people in particular, as an
exception always set apart, and
singled out, and never judged by
ordinary standards.
1t has always been thought of, and is
still thought of, first, and foremost,
and all the time, only in terms of its
goodness, and the results it gives.
All of this is wonderful, in one way,
and quite natural and logical in an
other.
1t all dates back to the day when
John and Horace Dodge conceived
and designed and finally built the car
after warning each other, and their
associates, not even to think of it in
any other terms than the best obtain
able value.
They began with a few almost abb
surdly simple principles, bluntly ex-
pressed and rigidly executed, about
decency and honor and integrity

such as most Of us wrote in our copy
books at school.
They reduced these old copy book
maxims to a splendid and scientific
system, pouring more, and more, and
still more value into the car, and then
marshalling all the resources of mod
ern massed manufacture to get their
product into the hands of the people
at an honorable and an honest cost.
These policies and principles have
never been changed, and never will
be changed, by SO much as a hairs.
breadth; and they have come to be
recognized and accepted as Dodge
Brothers principles wherever motor
cars are driven.
1t has all happened as John and
Horace Dodge planned it-quite SIM
ply, naturally, and automatically, all
over America, and all over the world.
People do discriminate, as Dodge
Brothers contended they would;
people will find out when motor car
is well built and gives good service
and great good value.
Dodge Brothers market today is
where they planned to locate and
establish tin the mind and the
heart of every man and woman who
admires good work, well done.

ing, as it has kept on growing for five
years Easter than Dodge Brothers
works could keep pace with it), as
long as the number of those who be-
lieve that a manufacturer should
build to serve and not merely to sell.
continues to increase.
All is well with Dodge Brothers to:
day, because John and Horace Dodge
builded well in the beginning, and
because their business will continue
to build well until the end.
