Have you met the Johnson family
yet? They're on display all this
week in the south window of the
Hussey Hardware Co. There's Old
Man Johnson, Ma Johnson and
young man johnson and they GER
tainly are a bright healthy looking
family. Pa Johnson does all the
heavy work for the family-he GER
tainly is the huskiest looking out
board motor you ever saw. When it
comes to pushing big heavy boat or
driving a light boat at a fast clip
Pa Johnson is the fellar for the job.
But in spite of his power and rugged
build Pa weighs only So lbs. and de-
velops full 6 horse power. Ma. john
son weighs only So lbs, but she's no
SLOUGH when it comes to work. Her
twin cylinders produce a full 21a
horse power and how she can drive a
row boat or canoe. Young man
Johnson weight only 26 lbs. and his
single cylinder produces a full IL
horse power. He is a real chip off
the old block though and for
youngster his strength and power
are astonishing.
The Church Electric Co., are Au-
gusta Representatives of the Johnson
family and are glad to show anyone
anytime just what this family can
do.-Adv.
