the sales forecast, but so many deal
ers, upon noting the public attitude
toward the new car, have asked to
have their quotas increased that our
output for the month will now exceed
the figure for last January.
Messages from our dealers relat-
ing the public attitude toward the
new car have come to us in greater
numbers this year then heretofore
and every message rebates a note of
complete confidence owe the years
prospect. Large dealers are increas-
ing their commitments for cars, and
small dealers, who formerly sold six
to eight cars in a year, have asked
to have the new 1880 car shipped ia
them in carload lots.
1.-THE reduced prices on the new
car contribute materially to the in
creased public interest shown this
year, as did the mechanical improve
ments. The price reduction resulted
directly from manufacturing econt
omics effected by our record output
in 1929, and u policy of passing on
to the consuming public the savings
effected by volume production are d.
rectly reflected in the low price of the
new car
"On the basis of present indications
we expect the early months of this
year to prove exceedingly satisfact-
Dry, and look to the year 1880 to COM
pare very favorably with 1929 when
we built 100000 skies, a new high
record"
Messages received by Mr.. Klingler
indicate that the national attendance
the first day Of the showing of the
1880 models, and the favorable COM
ments of the public, exceeded even
that which greeted the first appear
ance Of the Chevrolet Six a year ago.
Plentywood herald. [volume] (Plentywood, Mont.) 1908-current, 1930-01-23

Typical of many messages received
by Mr.. Klinger is one from Los An
geles dealer organization: "Recep-
ton of new car by public, dealers
and statesmen best for last four years
All amazed at price reduction. Many
thousands of people attended show
rooms. Even greater attendance
than last year when we first intro
duced the Chevrolet Six"
Expressions Of confidence that
their sales for this year would ex-
coed any previous year came from
dealers in all parts Of the country. At
Great Falls, Mont, rural prospects
dorve to the showrooms in sleighs to
see the car. Chicago wired: "We will
require in u territory more cars
for the next three months than we
received last year same period"
Messages from big and little towns
struck the same note. Clovis, N.
Mex, registered 800 in the show
rooms the first day out of a popula-
ton of 1900. Minneapolis reported
the largest first day crowd in ten
years experience, and Baltimore the
sale of 105 cars before 500 P. M.
"At no time has the financial fu-
ture looked better" said the Peter
son, NJ J. dealer. "If there is such
a thing as one hundred per cent car
/ feel | have it." And from Seattle:
"All dealers expect more business in
January and February than last
year"

CHEVROLET TO SELL
MORE CARS this MONTH
THAN LAST JANUARY

Detroit-Chevrolet will sell more
cars this month than in January a
year ago, according to H. j. Klingler,
vice-president and general sales
manager Of the Chevrolet Motor Com
pany, who announced on Saturday
that the months schedule had to be
increased in response to the greatest
reception a new Chevrolet model has
received in the nineteen-year history
of the company.
Directly on the heels of the first
first showing of the new car on Jan
uary 4, a flood of congratulatory mes
sages poured into the home office
from every quarter of the country.
Every message told Of ~unprecedent
public interest in the new car and a
consequent increase in retail sales,
with the result that the January
schedule had to be revised upward to
meet dealer requirements for immed-
late Mr.. Klinger said.
AiLAI Iiic SIcP-up Is Tie SCHcuule
resulted directly from the number of
orders taken for the new car when it
made its pubic bow, rather than upon
an estimate of the months requir-
ments, is indicated in a statement
from the Chevrolet sales executives:
"Our policy for some time" Mr..
Klinger explained, "has been to key
our production facilities to the an
ticipated needs of our sales organi-
cation SO that dealers might not be-
come over-stocked. On this basis we
set our January schedule to parallel

Custom of Challenge
by Gauntlet Kept Up

Tossing gauntlets to the ground in
challenge was not nearly so common
in the old days as some pOvelists
would have us think. In the first days
of chain armor, there were no gaunt-
lets at all. The hand was protected
by a mitten attached to the sleeve.
When gauntlets did begin to appear, in
the days of the Fourth and Fifth cru
sades, they were cumbersome things
which were strapped to the wrist so
firmly that issuing challenge by
means of them would be more of a
job than hot-headed knight would
care to undertake.
1t was not until plate armor had
reached it's full glory that the gaunt-
let became symbolic of challenge. And
it has rarely been anything else but
a symbol. Even today, there is per-
sonage in England-the king cham
pion-whose duty it is to cast glove
in Westminster abbey during the cere-
monies attendant upon the coronation
of king, and to cry loudly his will
ingness to fight any .man who denies
the new kings title.-Popular Biog-
raphy.

a program Of capricious effects such
as are capturing the fancy Of women
who glory in the new" and the dis
tinctive. One of the latest whims of
fashion is to play up sleeves which
are different" This they accomplish
not only in the shape of the sleeve
which is often quite generously pro.
portioned and unique in contour, but
the lavish fur trimmings are made to
tell tale of most out-of-the-ordinary
treatments.
However, the sleeve does not carry
the entire responsibility of interpre-
ting that which is novel and new. A
fascinating vagary of the mode is that
of the coachman's cape made of as
trakhan or similar fur. When worn
with the tailored suit of velvet it be-
speaks unmistakable chic.
Then there is the little fur bolero to
take on and off at will, how striking

well as its general styling as to when
and where it may be correctly worn.
AS to the models in the picture be-
low they are exquisite to the slightest
detail, are highclass, yet are so con-
servatively styled as to tune in to-
most any hour of the day.
The social rounds of the day seem
not so arduous to the woman cuddled
in luxurious fur and who feels the,
soft caress of rich velvet. And so if
you are bordering as to whether the.
new winter coat shall be of cloth or
of fur, why not let the models in the
picture solve the problem in their sug-
gestion that you choose velvet.
While the most natural thing to do
is to decide upon black for the day
time velvet coat, the vogue for deep
rich colors is also declared. The
youthful model illustrated to the right
is fashioned of velvet in empire blue.
