The faireSt lilies are the first to fall.
The sweetest first to fade:
The fondest. dearest best OF all.
At peaceful rest is laid.
AS some sweet blossom drops and dies
When blighted by ths frost.
She faded from before Our eyes
And all too soon vas lost.
But in Gods garden. free from pain.
Where grow His falrsst flowers.
We know that We shall meet again
This fairest bloom of ours.
Sadly missed by

PLANT STARTED
28 YEARS AGO
Pontiac F0rerunner Began
Operations in
1907.

Wednesday, Aug. %, was the
twenty-eighth anniversary of the
founding of the Oakland Motor Car
Co., forerunner and parent organi-
zation to the Pontiac Motor Co.
The company grew out of the
carriage and wagon business and
was the result of the vision of Ed
ward NJ. Murphy, president of the
Pontiac Buggy Co.. who foresaw the
future Of horSe-draWn transporta-
ton.
To build the first model automo-
bile the company set aside 50,84O
square feet of floor space. Today
the Pontiac car is build in a mod
ern plant with approximately 4,OO0,-
900 square feet of door space under
one roof.
During that first year production
averaged around Is cars a day. This
year the output of Pontiac oS4s ran
at a continuous clip Of from 800 to
1000 cars daily. In the first full
yo0r of operation the company
built 278 cars. Already 124.978 cur
rent model cars have been built
and by the close of 1885, produc-
ton for the year easily should
reach the 10000 goal
The Oakland name was dropped
in 1881 when the management de-
cided to build cars only under one
name, and the company has since
been known as the Pontiac Motor
Co.
From its inception in 1907, and
for several years prior to that date,
Pontiac and its predecessor COM
panieS have had an employe on
their payrolls steadily who has car
ried on as an active worker. He
is Joe F'rechette, carriage and
wagon blacksmith for the Pontiac
Buggy Company; foreman of the
blacksmith shop, foreman of the as
sembly line during the days of the
Oakland company and again expert
mental department blacksmith in
the Pontiac engineering depart
ment. He has contributed mater
tally to every motor car the COM
pany has built.

RETAIL DELIVERIES
OF CHRTSLER RISE
Gain of 91.2 Per Cent Over
Last Year Shown.

Joseph E. Fields, president of the
Chrysler sales division of the Chrys-
Ter Corp, and Joseph w. Frazer,
vice president, find plenty of cause
for satisfaction in retail deliveries
of Chrysler cars this year as COM
pared to the two preceding years.
AS of June %, Chrysler dealers
had delivered 23,510 Airflows and
AirStreams, an increase of 91.2 per
cent over the corresponding six
months of 1884. and GA per cent
over the corresponding period of
1888. These figures are in addition
to $3.50 Plymouths. a grand total of
l06.260 units for the Chrysler dealer
body.
The ChrySler sales executives ex-
pect that the second half of the
year will be relatively even more ia
vorable as compared to 1884 and
1888.
