1921 HAS REWARDED FIGHTERS ALL O. K.
Referring particularly to saleemen—these that peddle automobiles included — someone predicted that "1921 would reward fighters," and as far as we have gone this seems to be generally accepted as correct.
"Bill" Hauser of the Frank P. Taggart organization, Chevrolet dealers, gets credit for being one of these fighters and after looking over his sales record we think that he should bear some kind of a title for we are convinced that he is entitled to put on the main event in this 1921 fracas, especially when it comes to selling automobiles.
Taggart claims that the excellence of the Chevrolet has figured as a prominent factor in the making of this record, while Hauser claims that if a buyer will just get behind the wheel of a Chevrolet, the car will sell itself. "Bill" is modest. He is also courteous and accommodating and we are certain that these last characteristics have earned him many a sale, in fact, we know of a recent delivery of an FB model that was obtained in this way.
While returning to the salesrooms from a trip to the oil fields some few days ago, Hauser chanced to overtake a stranger afoot on the boulevard, and as was his custom, gave him a ride into the city. As a topic of conversation, the sturdy, powerful motor, and the new features of the car in which they were riding were discussed. Several questions were asked and answered regarding the car's low cost of operation, while Hauser's companion was surprised at its remarkably low cost. On arriving in Fullerton the stranger departed and the incident for the time was forgotten.
A few days later Hauser wae greeted in the Taggart salesroom at Fullerton by his new acquaintance, the purpose of his visit being to purchase a Chevrolet FB.
He stated previous to his short ride with Hauser from the oilfield he had made a deposit on another four-cylinder car but immediately after had gone and withdrawn the same. He further added that the trip had proved a convincing one to him and that there wasn't a car on Mrs. Ray Townsend, wife of the senior men distributors, is seen beside one of the new Cabriolthe Orange-co fair, Huntington Beach, recently.
The new Essex Cabriollet, one of which is now on display at the local salesroom of Townsend and Medbury, is attracting considerable attention, according to H. R. Groves, local manager for the firm, and it is gaining popularity among women and professional men.
One of these models was exhibited in the recent fair at Huntington Beach and received first prize as the Yorba Linda News

CROSS NATION WITH 1914 FRANKLIN CAR
"Trans-continental tours are all the rage these days and excite no comment as in the years gone by, unless they are unusual enough to make the blase motorist sit up and rub his eyes," states Bob White, of the Bob White Co. Franklin dealers for Orange county. "So with this as a preface, we would like to introduce you to Mrs. Wm. Loftus, of Whittier, who, accompanied by her sister, Miss Edith Hardison, has just completed a round trip to Caribou, Maine, in her 1914 Franklin.
"Dire were the predictions of misfortune that should befall them, but the 9200 mile journey was made practically without incident and with no hardship. Poor roads were encountered, it is true, but the record of no tire changes for the whole journey except to repair one lone-some puncture speaks volumes for the manner in which the faithful old Franklin covered the ground.
"While you think it over, you will have to admit it was a pretty enterprising stunt for two women to set out on a nine thousand mile trip in a car of 1914 vintage, but Mrs. Loftus states that neither she or her sister had any doubts about getting there in the Franklin—it had been a faithful servant for years, though they were surprised at its ability to keep going day after day with but ordinary care.
One of the outstanding features of the trip, considering the fact that the car was in storage every night and charges sometimes running as high as a dollar, was the fact that the cost of storage, gas and oil for the entire trip only amounted to $115.15.
When it is realized that the two sisters, traveling across by way of the Southern states, and returning via the Lincoln Highway, visited friends along their route and yet only consumed 50 days on the actual journey, the showing is not only confirmation of their ability as cross-country motorists, but an excellent showing for the faithful Franklin as well."

SHIP S. A. PIRE TO RANCH IN MEXICO
A well pipe manufactured in New York was on a car today ready for a journey into Mexico for wells to be sunk by a company in which W.D. Baker, Santa Ana baker, is interested.
The pipe was manufactured by the Vincent Manufacturing Co., and is consigned to the Culinean Land Co., at Culinean, Sindon, on the west coast of Mexico.
The company owns 130,000 acres, according to Baker. It has between 3000 and 4000 acres devoted to growing tomatoes and last season the company shipped 70 cars of this vegetable.
"We raise winter tomatoes on our tract," said Baker today. "We have been successful. When the United States government recognizes Mexico and that country settles down to a permanent peace basis, Mexico is going to offer a wonderful field to energetic Americans." The soil is rich and there are many possibilities for successful farm and business operations."

most attractive car for $2000 or more. During the fair this classy little two passenger was the center of all eyes and as a result a number of new ones are now seen in the country.
"Many new features embodied in the Essex this year make them hard to beat at their price." Mr. Groves said today, "and that the public appreciates the value of a quality car at an extra low cost is strongly proven by the increasing number being seen on the streets of Anaheim."
Mr. Karston, local contractor, of 1115 W. Broadway, is one of the thousands of big boosters for the Essex and his second one was delivered by Mr. Groves yesterday.
A carload of the new Hudsons are due to arrive at the local salesroom Monday morning.
