And the factory standards of Locomobile, Mercer and Simplex are too we'll known to the public to require description. These standards are bred into the workmen in the shops, into the foremen, into the testers, into the clerks. The entire organ ization thinks quality.

 A has been it's evolution towards strict transportation basis.
 ' Whereas in the early days of the industry pas senger motor cars were bought for the pleasure and diversion they would give, they are bought today almost solely as a means of getting from place to place-in varying degrees of comfort, it is true, but nevertheless primarily for travel rather than for recreation pure and simple.
 The buying of motor trucks, too, thoroughly haphazard before the science of motor haulage was fully understood, has become very much matter of elementary arithmetic based on known or easily determinable factors.
