The Rev. Mr. Sandeen might he ch aracterized as one of those p reach ers who is at it and alw ays a t it, and it Is to be hoped th a t his am bitions may he realized.

Metzger Buick Gresham, Oregon City A BRIEF H IS T O R Y OF A GREAT A C H IE V E M E N T * I D years ago D odge Brothers embarked upon a pro* .-*■ gram designed to place it and its Dealer Organization in a position on January 1, 1928, second to none in the industry. The astonishing results o f this great achievement are now known to the world. It is doubtful if industrial annals can cite, over a similar period, an achievement so outstanding. A smart, swift, low-priced and immensely popular qual ity Four has replaced its famous predecessor. The Senior Six, outstanding in performance, quality and luxurious appointment, has been created. Graham Brothers Trucks and Motor Coaches (formerly exclusively Fours) have been supplemented by sixes. Fifty new types have been added. The capacities are broadened to range from one-half ton to two-toft, all resulting in the most com plete and capable line o f work cars known, and with prices ranging front $670 to $4290. Then Thursday came The Victory— a Six fo r $ 1 0 4 5 a n d ub—the most spectacular engineering achievement of the decade. These accomplishments, one follow ing the other in steady progression, have now provided D odge Brothers Dealers throughout the world with the most diversified and com prehensive line o f passenger and commercial vehicles eves manufactured and sold by a single organization. For every need and nurse there is now a D odge Brother« vehicle built dependably and in full recognition o f the progressive ideals o f today and tomorrow.
