AN ENTERPRISE THAT MERITS
YOUR SUPPORT

Notwithstanding the amount OF
shipping that is now lying idle in the
harbors and at tn edocks Of the
United States, ocean travellers are
still obliged to pay high rates for
trans Atlantic travel, and an unpar-
alleled opportunity to build UP the
American Merchant Marine is being
lost. Recognizing this fact, and real
izing that the time was opportune
for an undertaking Of this nature,
the organizers Of the Great Northern
S. s. Co. formed their Corporation,
which received it's charter from the
State Of Massachusetts,, October IL,
1922.
They visualized new ocean stem
ship line, plying between Boston and
European ports, controlled by the
people, which would offer to these
same people chance for oceantravel
on comfortable commodious ships, at
a price within the reach OF all, but
large enough to allow profit for the
investor and a sufficient margin to
allow for the carrying on and enlarg-
ing Of the enterprise.
This was their threefold purpose
to render a genuine service to the
people,-to help build up American
shipping, and to bring business and
trade to the port Of Boston.
In spite Of the failure Of the Ship
Subsidy Bill, in spite Of the opposlt-
ion which each new competitor in an
established field encounters, this
Company is bring it's plans to ma
turity and expects that very soon It
will be able to offer definite sailing
dates to the public.
This, surely, is an enterprise that
merits your support

But the little girl was overturned

all the answers at once in single
breath.

yes, sir; go to hell, sir"

OUTPUT
ATTAINS New
January PEAK

with an Increase of 100 per cent
over December production and more
than 375 per cent increase over Jan
uary OF 1922. the output of Paige and
Jewett motor cars reached a new
peak in January. according to reports
received from the Paige factory.
To appreciate fully what an
achievement this means. 1t must pc
remembered that this radical step
ping-up OF production was made in
mid.winter at a time when ordinarily
automobile sales are at their lowest
point. Furthermore, the factory re-
ports show more than 1000 untitled
January orders on hand which must
be held owe for January shipment.
This extraordinary manufacturing
activity is the most reliable evidence
hat the Jewett has made a perma-
nent place for itself in the market,
for dealer demand is only a reflection
of broad public acceptance and a
ready sale.
with more h 25, 900 Jewett own
ers giving daily demonstrations of
the fine performing qualities of this
car and t~estifyIng to Its economy and
dependabllity, we ave every reason
to believe hat We will sell double
the number of Jewetts this year that
were sold in 1929. This is entirely
aside rom the Jewett Specials we
expect to market, for the three new
models have made a most favorable
impression wherever they have been
exhibited at the shows. In this city
as in every locality. a surprising
number of buyers have that these
Jewctt Specials offer exactly what
they want-cars that are distinctive
in appearance and complete to the
last detail in modern equipment, yet
moderate in price.
