Expect Greater Sales
During the past year the great
increase of cars sold in Indiana has
been due, it is said, to the mechani-
cal and other improvements and the
previous drop in price of models.
City sales in 1926 represented
IS per cent of all cars in the Chevro.

officials.

Acceptance of Marmon's full line
OF quality motor cars in the last few
weeks has made IL necessary for the
Indianapolis sales branch to expand
its facilities TO meet the demand for
sales and service. Sam V. Harding,
general manager of the branch, has
announced the reorganization OF the
sales department to include n new
little Marmon division, a new used
car salesroon1, and an enlarged serv-
ice department.
The sales department of the local
branch has been divided into two

other to handle the demand for the
little Marmon Eight. Jack Hen
bricks. Jr.. is general sales director
for the branch, and Hugh NJ. Knip-
penberg is sales manager Of the new
little Marmon division.
The new used car salesroom, an
nounced by Mr.. Harding, is situated
at 1887 n. Meridian St., adjoining
the new car showroom at Meridian
and Eleventh SITS. The new sales
room differs considerably from the
usual used car display quarters in
that it is fitted in the same manner
as a showroom for new cars. IL
contains $500 square feet Of floor
space. extending back more than 200
feet from Meridian st. G. j. Wilds

ment.
Complete service facilities for the
new little Marnon Eight has made
it necessary to enlarge the service
department which is in charge OF

,AUTO NECESSARY
COMMODITY, SAYS
BUICK PRESIDENT
Public Now Entering Era OF
Certainty, Ayers {. 7.
Strong.
By E. I. Strong
President and General Manager,
Buick Motor Company.


1t is a good time to take stock of
this industry of ours, and see what
lessons have been learned from the
last quarter of a century that can
be applied to advantage in the fu-
ture.
In summing up. we find we nave
entered an era which is nearer GER
tainty than any previous time. we
find that a great deal of speculation
has been removed. We are better
educated than we were a few years
ago when it was necessary for plo-
neers to sell the automobile to the
public. We have put behind us the
highly competitive years when six
hundred companies were scrambling
for a foothold and this number has
now been reduced to less than 10
per cent of the original total.
We know that the automobile is
an accepted commodity and an abb
solute necessity. Under normal con-
ditions We can depend upon GER
tain amount of business each year
from the replacement market and
the natural increase in population.
We are assured of a yearly increase
in registrations which is depend
ent on what might be termed a regis
tration ratio. In 1917 registrations
increased 40 per cent over the pre-
vious year. Since that date the
trend in the increase on a percent
age basis has steadily declined. To-
day the growth in registrations is
on much lower ratio. In 1925 it
amounted to about Is per cent and
each year it is growing smaller.
Dealers Permanent
We are now able to level off our
production schedules and divide pro-
duction more equally among the
seasons. This is an economy which
is reflected in the lower prices and
higher quality automobiles from year
to year.
1t is true of our company, and
undoubtedly true of many others,
that dealers can obtain an expert
appraisal of their territories from
the factory which tells them just
how much business they may ex-
poet each year.
Automobile dealerships have be-
come a permanent, profitable source
of livelihood and are practically non
speculative if the dealer utilizes fac
tory aid. This was not true few
years ago, but today we know where
yesterday we guessed.
. Competition has not decreased, but
Ait is a different kind of competition.
1The fewer companies who know the
bulk of automobile business are the
survivors of the more speculative
era of competition which we passed
through during the early years OF

One dav he met friend who had
been under treatment by physician.
For wears this friend had been fail
ing in health and business, never
suspecting that poisonous toxins were
accommodating in his system - to f.
nally strike him down with the most
prevalent of all diseases, TOXEMIA.
A check-up of the symptoms revealed
to Mr.. Collins the truth about his own
condition-he was nearing the danger
point - drifting day by day into this
frequently fatal conditional poison
saturated body-TOXEMIA!
Investigation showed that quick,
sure, economical way of cleansing the
system of poison wastes that bring
on this misunderstanding condition,
was through taking Partola, recon-
mended by doctors and druggists.
Mr.. Collins lost no time in getting
box from his druggist. He soon got
rid of the poison wastes in his sys-
tenn, and now at the age of so, is
we'll and strong, energetic, successful
and head of a large store, making
plenty of money. He has proved that
a clean system is the real key to
continual good health and success in
business.
Partola, being antiseptic and laxa-
tive, cleanses the system quickly and
gently, ends constipation and pre-
vents oncoming TOXEMIA. All good
druggists sell regular box zoe, double
size Zoe If you are tagging, getting
behind, going back, - get box of
Partola and see what difference its
occasional use makes in your health
and life.
