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

Why, you don't know the real meaning of the word

therein will be very valuable in the
motor truck. field.
F. G. Tegder has been with the
United Shirt and Coilar Company for
the past four years, and on Ja.nua.ry‘
1, 1917, was promoted to the position
of manager of their Atlanta branch.
He has but recently resigned that po
sition to enlist in the army, and at
present is stationed at Camp Gor
don,
With such an enormous demand ln‘
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.

Atlanta Tire Co.
Believes in and
Uses Advertising
The Atlanta Tire and Rubber Com
pany are firm believers in advertis
ing. The manager says that if you
have something to sell that has merits
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 different makes
and offers them at prices that at
tract every auto owner. Their main
talking point is low prite, and thgy
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
T Truck
| otor Trucks
| Moved Overland
Wtat is perhaps the largest over
land delivery of motor trucks ever
attempted at one time is being made
by the Garford Motor Truck Com
pany, of lLima, Ohio.
This fleet, comprising thirty-eight
trucks of all the various models from
one and a half to seven tons capacity,
left the plant at Lima last Wednes
day in the face of the most severe
weather conditions imaginable DBat
t'ing with snowdrifts mountain high
over roads that had become well nigh
impasgseble, these sturdy freight haul
ers aré bucking their way over a long
haul 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
quarters to a 4 mile in length.
“This is in no sense a test run,”
sald 8. M. Williams, 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 being made to supply
our various branches between the
home plant and New York city,” said
Mr. Williams, “as the gonditions 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.” . P

- Take Davis Line
For This Section
When Mr. Randall, of the Randall
Motors Company, visited the Chicago
automobile show his attention was
called to the Davig cari He wu]
thoroughly impressed with the n.p-l
pearance and specifications of the car
and when he investigated the com-‘
pany building it he was more than
pleased. He found that they ’nad?
been building the Davis for e'ight‘l
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. .-
