'CHUCKED ME UP TO GENERAL’
General Bailloud of F.cnch m. my Re
minds Corporal That There
Are Others.
Saloniki. — General Bailloud, com
manding part of the French expedi
tionary force in the Balkans, is so
popular with his men that nearly
every good story originating In his
corps is either about him or attributed
to him.
The latest going the rounds tells
how a soldier of the rough-and-ready
style was returning to quarters near
Monastir with a water Jug in eacli
hand. Coming across another mud-
stained “pollu” sitting beside the road,
he hailed him:
“Hello, old man. Say, can’t you car
ry one of these jugs for me?”
“Sure,” said the other, and they
went on together.
“Would you believe it,” said the first
soldier, “they’ve chucked me up to the
grade of corporal.”
“What of that?” replied the other;
“didn’t they chuck me up to the grade
of general?”
After nearly dropping his Jug, the
soldier drew closer and made out three
faint stars on a mud-stained sleeve.
He drew himself up at attention and
saluted.
“Walk on, corporal,” said General
Bailloud, who wouldn’t consent to give
up his jug.

The Whale For WorK Ton TrticR
WIDENS YOUR TRADE CIRCLE
T HE two circles illustrate
the capacity of your daily
delivery with a MAXFER
and with a team. The larger
circle is four times the dia
meter of the smaller one.
Extend your reach. Make
your territory miles, instead
of city blocks. Why not?
Distance means nothing
when you deliver your lodd
in one-quarter of the time
with a MAXFER—the whale
for work! With yourbusiness
equipped with a MAXFER,
you can really adopt the
slogan, “We Deliver The Goods?
MAXFER makes a Ford used or
new into a one-ton truck at a cost
of $350 and a Ford. The MAXFER
slips over the whole length of the Ford, strengthening it all _ /A
the way. Today it is being used by over 5,000 firms having RTI&
strenuous delivery service. In this day and age you cannot
deliver the service which is required without a MAXFER.
We will be glad to send you all 'particulars and have a demonstrator at
your place of business to show you that the MAXFER solves the hauling
problem of the high cost of horse delivery.
