GOOD BUSINESS
is REPORTED

The exceptional good run of bust
ness which The Henlcy-Kimball
Company have had all the Fall still
continues, having sold this week, five
Hudsons and two Essex cars. There
is n strong tendancy for closed cars
shown by the fact that out of twenty
two cars ordered for Spring delivery,
eighteen are closed models. This
weeks big drop in prices has stirred
up great deal of new interest and
inquiries, and requests for demon
STATIONS are pouring in rapidly.
There are four fundamental reasons
why business will be better in 1923
than in 1922. These reasons are:
The best crops in years, aided by re-
cent advances in prices Less unem-
jloyment. Better money conditions
and greater banking confidence More
business in sound condition. The
combination of these conditions is an
assurance of increasing business ac-
tivity and a general larger volume of
trade. 1922 crops, because they were
produced at lower costs and are SELL
ing at advancing prices, should De
the most profitable in years. The
