We Give Standard
Willard Service on
AH Batteries
With our experience and equipment we
have a v notion that we could work out a
pretty fair sort of battery service without
much help.
But we also have an idea that it wouldn't
measure up to the brand of service devel
oped for our use by the Willard Storage
Battery Company. ,
As Battery Headquarters we have the
benefit: of their years of experience, and of
the definite national standards of service
they have been able to develop as a result.
,- , Come in! No matter what make of bat
tery you happen to have it needs the sort of
. attention provided by the Willard Standard
of Service. '

cars, will be sold this fall throughout
the territory. Mr. David I. Stoddard,
Franklin dealer in the La Grande and
Baker territories, when in Pendleton
this last week, placed his orders with
the local distributors for two touring
limousines, three sedans and one
coupe all to be specially trimmed in
a Spanish leather upnolstery two
Demi Sedans and one Touring all to
be delivered as soon as shipment can
be made, ' r
Xo new Franklins are available this
week report the Pendleton Auto Co.,
as business has been so brisk that they
have sold out all their new cars. ; Used
cars have also been moving very
rapidly. , - .
So far during June the Simpson
Auto Co. has sold and delivered 25.
hew Fords. More sales have been
made, but delivery Is held up until the
company can secure cars. The branch
office at Portland Is being beseiged
by distributors anxious to get as many
cars as possible. "I camped there for
a while this week, and I think I'll
have to go back and do the same thing
again next week In order to get hulf
as many as nve need to fill orders,"
Bob Simpson said yesterday.
Auto dealers always evpect Oliver
to hesitate a bit during til" l'lt'e- port
of June because of the fact
auto licenses taken out after July 1
cost only one-half as much as if taken
out for the entire year, and buyers fig
ure on holding off and getting thefized and
uwnein. or me. saving on licenses. .oi
wlthstanding this condition, local deal
ers almost without exception are
swamped with orders. Prospects are
Lthat by. this fall the leading com
panies will be far behind with deliveries.
