PAUL BENNETT
NOW SELLING
FORD PARTS

Paul Bennett. of the Paul Bennett
Auto supply Company. local Good
year dealers. has just Installed a
Ford parts department. in his estab-
lishment at 326 n. Central avenue,
with complete stock Of genuine
Ford parts department in his estab-
of the many owners Of Ford cars who
are making his establishment their
automotive headquarters.
Service" says Mr.. Bennett, " is
today the one big factor in the auto
motive industry. including both the
manufacturer and the dealer. Tn
less we are able TO give our patrons
real service, our business existence
is only a matter Of short while.
''At the Paul Bennett Auto Supply
company we have always made serv-
ice the outstanding feature of our
policy and the large number of sat
isfied customs which we have built
up has led us to believe that our
efforts along this line are in the
right direction.
There has been one outstanding
feature of the service we have al
ways desired to render Ford owners
that has, up to this time, been lack
ing, and that was our inability TO
supply our customers with genuine
Ford parts. For long time we have
been endeayoring TO secure stock OF
these parts, and at least our efforts
have been rewarded, so that today We
are ready to meet the Ford owners
every need along this line.
Most Ford owners know from bit
I o7r.1ayfat1ro that fhprn a largo
! number Of "gyp" parts on the mar
ket, the product OF ely by night,
| concerns, and built to no particular
specifications. Naturally. these boz
! gus parts. when put into service, give
| out after very short usage, due to the
poor quality of workmanship and
materials entering into their cons
| struction.
"Then too, in nine cases out Of ten,
these bogus parts do not fit ac-
| curately, and cause great deal OK
unnecessary trouble and inconven-
ience.
"We take great deal OF pride in
| the fact that we are now in posi-
ton to supply our customers VINO are
the owners of Ford cars with the
| genuine article-made by the same
| company that makes the Ford car,
and built exactly 10 Ford specifica-
| tions.
"How much satisfaction there is in
knowing that right here in Phoenix
the Ford owner can be assured OF
service of this kind-and the possi-
bility OF securing Ford parts from
us when he needs them :
In keeping with the general trend
OF prics reductions. Ford parts are
Il nov Ell in price today than ever.
by this new addition to our busi-
ness we. hope to be able TO give
4 greater service and more complete
satisfaction to the motorists OF TINS
vicinity than ever before. and carry
out our policy of satisfaction TO the
end thxt our customers may get more
service from their cars.

CIRCULATION IS
OU|CKENED IN
GILL BATTERY

BATTERY men and motorists alike
know that a very large percentage
of the difficulties with batteries or
iginate in the separators," declares
NJ. A. Moody. Of the Titan Battery
Co. Gill distributors. Distributors
of Gill batteries have something new
and decidedly different 10 show GUS
toners i'm the Gill battery which mas
no separators. and are enthusiastic
about the greater degree Of satisfac-
tory service that Gill battery users
are getting.
THE narrow plates in the Gill bat
terry are made thicker and heavier
than those of the ordinary battery
and are placed crosswise Of the cell
rather than the long way. The plates
are held apart by rubber strips along
the edges which keep the plates rig
idly in place but still allow for per-
feet circulation of the electrolyte over
the full length of the plate.
at is this greater freedom OF CIR
culation of the liquid content of the
cell that makes so much difference IN
the action of the acid in the LIQUID
on all parts Of the plate at all times.
This feature Is given credit for the
quicker replacement of current used
and for the remarkable recuperatiVe
power of this battery"

OUTLOOK FOR
1922 BRIGHT
SAYS FIELDS

It is no longer necessary to con-
slider prophetic the statement that
1922 opens to the motor car indus
try one of the most promising years
it has ever known, according to j.
z. Fields, director of sales of the
Liberty Motor Car company, pro-
ducers of the Liberty Six Says Mr..
Fields: while some sections of the
country are somewhat slower to re-
spond to generally improved condi-
tions than others, the upward tend
ency is noticeable every place and
the larger portion of the country
seems to be on normal footing
right now, so far as the motor car
business is concerned.
zone of the striking indications OF
the return of good business is found
in the used car situation. Three
months ago it was the most widely
discussed condition in the industry
and threatened to throttle the whole
business by requiring so much OF the
capital of dealers that they would
simply be unable to absorb new car
{
of their buyers. Today the used car
situation is much less talked about.
In fact, it seems to be solving it
self In some points there is actual
ly a shortage of used cars. ] stopped
in one Of the used car saleSrooms
last week and saw three cars sold
in 15 minutes. Within an hour Ia
ter at least a half a dozen people
stepped in there inquiring for some
certain make of car which they want
ed TO buy immediately.
"One big distributor of automobiles
in Detroit actually has a. man out
in the state buying used cars or his
particular make in order to supply
the demand made through his own
place of business by local buyers. If
there is any significance TO be gain
ed from this it is in the fact that a
used car shortage usually precedes
| shortage of new cars. And in view
of the difficulties of getting into a
| production that even keeps pace with
| present orders, a new car shortage is
not beyond reckoning with.
| eve have not been disposed to
make statements or predictions
about business in general, but con
| cerning our own particular business
1 it has seldom been so good or prom
al it does right now. With the IN
PRODUCTION OF our new models at the
early automobile shows there begar
a steady inflow Of orders that ha:
increased in volume with each sue
| ceeding week. We secured more
business than we have before OBJ
tanned at these early shows, botf
wholesale and retail. and have re-
ceived a larger number of applica'
tions from distributors and dealer:
than Liberty ever before experienced
Distributors and dealers are urging
immediate shipment of cars. many O
them are even placing orders for cari
to be shipped so to 80 days from thu
present in order to make sure tina
they will not be deprived of car
because of over demand. Right nov
we are bending every offort to in
crease our production in order t
keep pace with growing sales, ever
working many Of our departments a
night. This unusual situation we at
tribute largely to the popularity o
our new models and the lowere'
price of 81 .295 on this improved Lib
erty. which is the lowest price a
which Liberty on the presen
chassis haA~eyer sold.'

Durant dealers have many orders for
