Why, listen—nothing can be too speedy for the red

The ingenuity of the greatest American brains, which
has fathered our greatest inventions, has had but hardly
one thing in view, and that is speed. :
It was the human, American desire, for speed that
gave birth to the electric car, railroads, steamers, teleg
raphy, telephones, wireless, typewriters, adding ma
chines, aeroplanes, automobiles, motor trucks, and last,
but not least, THE QUICK TIRE SERVICE OF AT
LANTA.
Why, you don't know the real meaning of the word
until you have tire trouble and ring up the Quick Tire
Service. No matter where you are, or the time of day or
night, you are just as near our service station as the

motor truck. field.
F. G. Tegder has been with the
United Shirt and Collar Company for
the past four years, and on January
1, 1917, was promoted to the position
of manager of their Atlanta branch.
He has but recently resigned that po
sitlon to enlist in the army, and at
present is stationed at Camp Gor
don.
With such an enormous demand in
the South for motor trucks; such a
complete and high-class line of agen
cies, and an experienced and ag-|
gressive organization, the future of
the Tegder Motor Company would
seem to be assured. They have just
unloaded a carload of Atlas delivery
cars, and are expecting shipments of
Acme and Denby trucks the coming
week, They have the distribution
of these line in South Carolina, Geor
gia, Florida and Alabama, and dealers
are rapidly closing agency contracts
for their territories.

! The Atlanta Tire and Rubber Com
pany are firm believers in advertls
ing. The manager says that if you

‘not to be had in competitive articles
and do not advertise them you are
‘hiding your light under a basket.
This company carries a large line
of automobile tires of diiferent makes
and offers them at prices that at
tract every auto owner. Their main
talking point is low prite, and they
make that the burden of their adver
tising, and they advertise regularly,
which is proof that they not only be
lieve in advertising,, but are getting
results.
Most any day one can see a large
number of express orders stacked up
in their store waiting to be shipped.
Those orders are the results of their
advertising of low-priced tires, and
they come in fro mnot only Georgia,
but Florida, Alabama and the Caro

Fleet of Garford
Moved Overland
Wtat is perhaps the largest over
land delivery of motor trucks ever
attermnpted at one time is being made
by the Garford Motor Truck Com
| pAnY, of Lima, Ohio.
| This fleet, comprising thirty-eight
trucks of all the various models from
'one and a half to seven tons capacity,
[lelt the plant at Lima last Wednes
day in the face of the most severe
‘weather conditions imaginable Bat
tling with snowdrifts mountain high
over roads that had become well nigh
impasez ble, these sturdy freight haul
ers aré bucking their way over & long
?huul to New York city.
Men with the party stated here
that some of the drifts through which
they had to pass were from six to
twelve feet deep and from three
quariers to a mile in length.
“Thig is In no sense a test run,”
gald S. M. Willlams, sales manager of
the company. - The Garford Motor
Truck Company has been making
these cverland deliveries for months
and knows that they are thorughly
practical, as we have demonstrated.
But this particular ‘trek’ is remarka
ble in that it is the lagrest fleet of
trucks ever engaged in a trip of this
kind at the same time.”
“The trip is beirg made to supply
our various brancheg between the
home plant and New York city,” said
Mr. Williams, “as the eonditions fac
ing the *country demanding the more
expeditious handlipg of+all kinds of
commodities, combined with the dem
onstrated value of the motor truck
as a dependable means of freight
hauling, have resulted in unusual de
mands upon our factory.” ’

For This Section
When Mr. Randall, of the Randall
Motors Company, visited the Chicago
automobile show his attention was
called to the Davig car: He was
thoroughly impressed with the ap
pearance and specifications of the car
and when he investigated the com
pany building it he was more than
pleased. He found that they had
been building the Davis for eight
consecutive years and were very con
servative in thelr claims, and were
financially able to back up and carry
out all of their plans.
The result of Mr. Randall's inves
tigation was the making of a con-’
tract for handling the Davis car in
this territory. A shipment has al
ready been received and numbers of
them sold. .

In each of these countries it i{s ne.

At the annual convention of (g
Motorcycle and Allied Trades Asgo
ciation, just closed, at New York, it
was the unanimous sentiment that the
first and onily thing that should be
considered was how the industry
could help to win the war. Motor.
‘cycles have been wusecd in this wap
more extensively in Europe than in
America in military matters, and it
was agreed that every effort shoud
be made to equip our Aamerican
armies with adequate motorcyela
equipment. Mr. H. 8. Quine, man.
ager of the publicity department of
the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Com.
' pany, presided over the convention.
