by entered into an animated con-
versation with his face, discussing
such topics as he thought might be
of interest. At length, afer a
short respite, he asked;
"What, now is your profession,
sir?"
81 sing" replied Chaliapin.
The cabby flieked his whip i'm
patiently.
"oh," he replied. 81 do a bit
of that myself. But / wouldn't call
it a profession. What d'you do

Record

Nine thousand, eight hundred
and four new Chevrolets, and IT.
467 used cars of all makes, is the
sales record set by the Hoffman
Chevrolet Sales, Inc, according to
0 @cials OF the company who have
just finished compiling statistics
covering the period between Nov.
l, 1925 to Nov. 1, 1897. And in
concentrating their twelfth an
niVersary in business in Hagers-
town, the company is conducting
one of the most extensive used
car sales ever held in this section
of the State.
The history of the Hoffman
Chevrolet Sales Company is ex-
ceptionally interesting, and the
success of the organization in
large degree is due to the progress
siveness of its president, Mr..
Charles w. Hoffman.
Back in 1922 Mr.. Hoffman was
sales manager of The Benjamin
Ourisman Chevrolet Sales, the
largest automobile company in
the city of Washington. When
the Chevrolet agency in Washing
ton County was offered him he
came to Hagerstown and started
in the old Carver Furniture Com
pany building on East Franklin
street. Within a short period of
time he was forced to seek larger
quarters, and, accordingly, leased
the garage and show rooms in the
rear of the Hotel Patterson. The
company remained in this loca-
ton until 1928 In that year the
company moved into the new
