Detroit, and since 1924, a3 the
metropolitan dealer. . ,
Since the, organization of lc. H

h Mr. Jennings new connection
with the Paige company brings. to
Paige one of the. strongest retai)
selling organization in the , auto
motive field. ' '; : ,
In associating himself with r the
three Graham Brothers,; and - the
-Paige line.l Mr. Jennings baa re
sumed in a closer way. the contact
with the Grahams which he en
joyed during their former associa
tion in the manufacture and sale
of Graham ' Brothers Trucks and
Dodge Brothers cars.
"In my association with Joe,
Robert and Ray Graham Jn the
past, I found the same honesty.
sound business' policy and remark
able organizing ability which gave
John F. and Horace E. Dodge
tbeir wonderful reputation and. es
tablished public confidence in the
values they offered.-for the public
knows the- Graham , standard of
values," n!d Mr, Jennings in an
nouncing his- taking - on of . the
Paige.? - :---'r-'V-l.'-
"I believe that their association

Company will make Paie one of
the key factors in the industry 1
feel that it is certain that they
will advance" standards of value
fn their new field Just aa they
have! in other fields which they
have entered. - -.! f
This is why I can turn with
real enthusiasm : to this new un
dertaking and' at the same time
carry with me the hearty support
of my organization.. Beyond ques-
tion it enables C H. Jennings. In
co.porated,. to continue its basic
policy of offering outstanding mo
tor car ralues in this market-
Tie rapid rise of C. M. Jennings
to a position of power in the New
York automotifd field, having
doubled his business in his second
year, has 'marked him as one .of
the interesting personalities along
Xvw York's automobile row ! .
Throughout the development of
tbe Jennings business there has
been evidence" of military precision
and dispatch,- which probably tra

"Fundamental honesty. me
chanical genius, ability to organ

off, "these are the Qualities noon
which all lasting successes are
built. , - The convincing successes
of the Graham brothers. In other
and varied lines of endeavor are
indicative, of the fact that these
