REQ AGENCY IN MIDDLEBURY
II. W. Caswell & Co. Receives Agency
for REQ Automobiles-Plans for
Extensive Business

The H. w. Caswell Company, auto
mobile dealers of Middlebury have
just been appointed sales agents for
the REQ automobiles. The REQ has
the reputation of being one of the
very best medium priced cars on the
market, and its reputation for quality
and endurance is second to no car OF
the same price.
The REQ Company manufactures two
models, the REQ "Six" and the REQ
Speed Wagon, and the Caswell Com
pany will have for demonstration two
OF the touring cars and one Speed Wa
gon in a very few days. They plan to
have number OF both models on hand
at all times as they have the distribu
ton agency as we'll as the sales agency
for Addison County They will ap-
point agents in other towns of the
county and distribute and render ser
vice from their garage at Middlebury.
1t is a well known fact that automo-
biles have their ups and downs, that
is some years the same make of auto
mobiles NAV not be as good as the
year previous. And the remark is
frequently made, that a certain car is
not good this year" But the record of
the REQ automobiles during the past
twenty years has been remarkable in
this respect, and the cars produced by
the REQ Company have always been
well made and guaranteed to give good
service. This fact has been evidenced
by the number of persons who always
drive a REQ, and the owner OF a REQ
automobile is invariably a booster for
his car and a satisfied customer.
1t means much to the purchaser OF
an automobile to have in the county
near at hand a good service station
equipped with good men and materials
for the repairing Of automobiles; and
purchasers Of the REQ cars are sure to
get the very best Of treatment at the
Caswell Garage. The members Of this
Company take pride in giving good
service and this policy of their business
viii aid materially in producing an ex-
tensive sale of REQ cars in Addison
County.
