ways stood ready and willing to

reasons or desire to receive business
through any particular field, but be-
cause the company was established to

nature along lines that would afford
every one the utmost in purchasing

Every automobile owner and driver
appreciates the fact that ever so often
an automobile like a house or any

This is a work that cannot be done
successfully unless the workmen are
skilled in this line of work and who
have the proper facilities with which
to do work. Hence, it is not at all
surprising that the well known firm

and permanent increase in work dur
ing the past year. This firm special

covers, celluloid or plate glass win

IN which the owner delights in re-
iierrlng his friends to. This firm stands
