whether the matter ever eolpes to

Dodge Automobile Company, - ^
Detroit, Michigan,
Gentlemen:—
Seveial times while traveling through France and Germany I was inspired to ex
claim, “I really must write to the Dodge Company, when I get home and tell them
what I think of their car.” Now, that 1 am home that intention has not weakened. 1
have spent tha whole of this winter in F> ance and Germany amid the mud and rain
and shell torn rosds of the battle front, and later over the steep mountains and through
the narrow gorges between the Luxenberg and the Rhine.
Gendral Pershing gave me for my use while I served the A. E. F. a Dodge car
With my littie company of entertainers I was enable to go to many of the boys in
isolated spots who had no transportation to send for me and would have gone without
entertainments had I not had mv own car. We traveled hundreds of miles some time*,
over almost impassable roads. We scaled mountains, where at every minute we feared
onr little car might balk at further pressure. Vie never had a moment's trouble. I
can say most emphatically that the Dodge gave splendid service and held out where we
had found other cars disabled by the road side.
Whet, my service with the Army was through and I hsd to retuin the car to them I
felt as if I wss parting with a personal frieud and wished that it could run me down to
Brest and be taken aboard the transport and sail for horrife with me.
From what I have heard from many sources I believe that others haye just as suc
cessful experiences with the Dodge at the front as we have had.
Belisve m*.
Very cordially yours,
MAUD B. BOOTH.
