to the exceptional interest, centering
on the activities OF these two con-
Germs by announcing their third sub

from S095 to 1915; IL ton chassis
from $3.50 to S1245; MBW low
chassis from $1345 to 1925.
Even more substantial reductions

tor coaches, of which Graham Broth
IRIS build varied and attractive as
sortment of types, arc reduced proper
tionately:
While these reductions come stimuli
taneously with the Dodge Brothers

case with the Dodge Brothers product
December, ordinarily not a par
ticularly evcntful month in the truck
business, was the greatest in Graham
Brothers history. The year 1925 as
whole also set a new record, hav-
ing surpassed 1924, which previously
held the record, by 123 per cent.
