Why Do You Say I Can Share in the Bis Profits? because Gary Motor Stock is a good buy especially at the exceptionally low price tf $15 per share and we are going to prove it to you right now. Our present success is due to three and one half years of untiring labor on the part of the experienced and capable business men who form our Board of Directors. These men have succeeded in building what is considered to be one of the best Motor Trucks in America. This is evidenced by the fact that the Gary Truck is in the service of such discriminating buyers as The United States Steel Corporation, Standard Oil Co., Standard Steel Car Co., Krey Packing Co., American Bridge Co., Illinois Steel Co., Schulz Baking Co., Lomax Co., Crumpled Horn Dairy Co., and other representative concerns. The company has been so ably managed that it has operated at a substantial profit since its organization.. Leading Distributors and Dealers everywhere sejl the Gary. Due to the tremendous demand for Gary Motor Trucks the world wide recognition of the motor truck as a means of freight transportation the assured demand for trucks for many years to come we are greatly increasing our production and can earn still larger returns on the additional capital necessary. There should be a liberal profit for all of us. That's why we say it is possible for you to share in the Big Profits. You as an INDIVIDUAL can buy Gary Stock at its present low price of $15 per share and you can have a small amount or as many shares as you can take care of conveniently and you can buy your shares on' EASY PAYMENT TERMS.

If feat Will the Stock Fay? Here are some figures which do not lie. We have had over three successful manufacturing years the Gary Truck rs well and favorably known it has never failed to give ABSOLUTE SATISFACTION and a great many of our orders come from concerns who started with one Gary Truck. During the first year (ending Augustk 1916), we made a PROFIT on the capital invested. Durfng the year ending August, 1917, our NET EARNINGS WERE 247c and -for the year ending August, 1918, 29 WAS EARNED. Conservatively estimated, on the basis of our increased production, our NET EARNINGS SHOULD BE 42. This should not only permit a substantial dividend disbursement among our stockholders BUT on this basis, the $15 shares WE ARE OFFERING YOU NOW should be worth $40 to $45 per share PLUS whatever you receive in DIVIDENDS. Complete Line of Motor Trisclis ; Output Sold In Advance We are manufacturing and shipping the Gary Truck in five models of five different capacities, 1 ton, lx2 ton, 2 ten, 2J ton and Zl2 ton. We have some of the best distributors throughout the country. Our Sales Contracts on hand MORE THAN absorb our output which means GREATLY REDUCED SELLING EXPENSE. Another advantage well worth your considering is that we do a STRICTLY CASH BUSINESS. We get our money FIRST thus our capital is being turned over constantly.

Yoei Can Help Us Grow By Leaps and Bounds The west wing of our new factory addition (Unit A) is now completed and the extensions to our present factory, are being rushed. We have proven that we can build and sell Gary Motor Trucks at a big profit. We are increasing our annual capacity to 5,000 trucks. This takes money it requires additional capital and you as an individual, by taking shares - in our company, can help us grow much faster and in return you will have an opportunity to share in the increased profits we make. Our stock is selling faster than we anticipated. There is still some stock for sale in the present allotment at the old price of $15 per share. .

From Corporal Kunert. Somewhere Jn France.. Oct 1, 118 Dear Mother and Father: Have been unable to write you a letter, because we take a six-day hike, and therefore could not write any sooner, but will say that I am sure feeling good, and by the looks of things think that the whole world will feel better in a short time. Am sitting in my dugout after a day's work, toasting a few pieces of bread, and thought I had better write you folks a letter. We have been working very hard for a week or more, for we are connecting the American and German narrow gauge rallroar and havenow put it in shape that we. can take supplies over it. If you ever happen to aee it in motion pictures you can say that It was our company, as it was our company that did the Job. Keeeived your letter and was glad to hear from you and surely wa glad to hear that Jim was promote;! to superintendent of the shop, as I

figured he would get the Job in a short time after I left. I met a boy from Hammond yesterday who is in the Trench Mortars, by the name of Jackson. Used to e around Benny'n fruit store a great deal of the timeWe are now on a different front and building another railroad. but think we will be leaving here again in a week or two. Harry Dayholt myself and two other boys were sent on a scouting trip yesterday morning and Juet got back and will say I 'haver seen more in that day and a half than I ever could see wese I not here. I have seen dugouts that the Germans had before the drive that were divided into rooms with electric lights, curtains on the windows and portiers between the dors, also wagons that had twelve shower baths in it. Wnen we started back to our dugout we met a French lieutenant and asked him our direction, which he told us and then placed his hand on my shoulder and shook his head and said, "My but the American boys are the bravest I have seen in all my life, from private to general, and believe me, he is right: for if you could. see them the way I have it would convince you that they are' better than the best drilled soldiers in Europe. Well, I actually don't know what else to write, but will telLyou all the important details when I get home, which Will not be very long now. Cr not be worried if you do not hear from me so often for I have beru writing about once a week before, but this is the first one I have written, In about three weeks, but will write as often as I can. Well, my candle is just about out, so guess I will havo to close. Am feeling the beet in the world and hope you are the same. With love and kisses to all. Your son, CORP. ARNOLD KVNEP.T. Co.

From Sergt. Fillibeck. Somewhere in trance, Oct. 22. 1918.

"Dear Folks:

Am located in the southern part of France, it sure is a wonderful country. The chief occupation of the people seems to be in making wine, they don't like to see us drink water. They say water Is for washing purposes. The country seems so different from home. It .Is something X cannot explain but while marching along this morning in the light morning breeze something mnda nature more attractive than it

ever was to me. The song birds seemed to be throbbing such sweet melodies that alone just freehsns o ne up. so you can Imagine how interesting things ara to mo. I suppose the people think I am awful curious. I ask a million questions, but they are so good about answering them I can parley voua very well now. so I will have quite a time, and when I come home I will have an awful lot to tell which will be of great Interest to you. Give my regards to Mr. Moor and the rest at the plant, also Mr. Rotide and tell them to drop a line or two, also tell the rest of my friends to write, t recieved your letters and was glad to hear from you. Am feeling fine and hope this letter finds you in as good health as It leaves me. With lots of love to all. I am your loving son and Bro. Joe, SERGT. JOS. A. FILLEBECK. Sup. Co. 342nd Inf., A. P.
