OWNER MARVELS AT REPUBLIC PERFORMANCE

The following excerpt is from a letter submitted to us by the Roberts Motor Car Co., Inc., Republic distributor at Portland, Ore. It was addressed to the Lyle Garage, Lyle, Wash., and signed by Mr. J. E. Dunne of the Hazelwood Ice Cream Company, (of Portr land). . . “The past winter period we witnessed the greatest demonstration by the Republic truck that has ever been known in our plant. When practically every other truck of ours was tied up we were able to climb over the tops of all those huge snowdrifts in Portland, and continue our delivery in the face of almost a total stoppage of other vehicles. We put all our men on the one truck, made all deliveries from it and succeeded in getting t^‘I Ug think probably this is the greatest testimony we can give you in behalf of the Republic truck. In addition to this, we find it easy to keep up, our men like it very much—its manipulation is easy and its care is not great.”
