I am only a boy, but I want every reader of The News-Times to know that I have one into business for myself. 1 am told the business I am eniin in is the best business that a boy can get into and I want you, dear reader, to help me make a success of this business. I am the boy who delivers your News-Times to your home or office every day in the year, and for me to make a success and at the same time i;ive you ood service, and win your esteem there is only a few things 1 am going to ask you to do for me. First 1 am just like your grocer, butcher, clothier or coal man. I buy outright from The News-Times Printing Co., every paper I deliver. I am required to pay for my papers every Saturday and that is right. Second I am charged for every paper I miss delivering, and that is right, as The News-Times keep a boy at the office both day and night to deliver all the customers, papers I miss. I want you "to call the office every time I miss you, as that is the one way of impressing me with your order and your number. Third I buy my papers so there will be a fair margin of profit to me if all my subscribers pay me each week. This is what I am going to ask you to do. Please pay me each week so that I can be rated as A 1 as any business man must be in order to secure his merchandise. It I should lose one week's pay from a subscriber it will take nearlv all the profit or two who do pay, to pay for that one paper, so vou can see that I will thus be carrying three papers seven davs for nothing Fourth I am only asking you to do the right thing bv me and in return I will give you good service and courteous treatment or the circulation manager will not permit me to remain in busine

THOUGHT OF BUYING A CHALMERS CAR

An arrangement has been effected whereby the Maxwell Motor Company has leased for a period of five years the properties of the Chalmers Motor Company. The immediate effect of this transaction is: 1. The Chalmers car will be continued under the Chalmers name for a period of five years. 2. Those distributors or dealers who have been successfully marketing the Chalmers car will continue to do so. The appraisers of the property and their engineers report the current Chalmers model a good car and the Chalmers plant a wonderful factory. The first move we have made is to increase the efficiency of the Chalmers organization. The second move was to place behind the Chalmers car the resources of the Maxwell Motor Company.

WANT ADS BRING RESULTS

This is a business transaction between two automobile companies of probably no more than ordinary interest to the public but important to you if you have thought of buying a Chalmers for these obvious reasons: 1. You obtain a good car. 2. You obtain a car produced in a magnificently equipped plant 3. You obtain a car produced by an organization materially strengthened by the addition of able executives. 4. You obtain a car produced by an organization materially strengthened by additional financial resources. 5. You obtain a car from a distributor or dealer who will have the support of this organization. In this way all three of us prosper in the transaction.
