Introducing a Good Neighbor On Wheels THERE'S a powerful lot of back-country tucked away among the mountains, deserts and seaside wastes of the Pacific Coast. In all that territory we re a one-man Company. In every part of it there's a color ful fellow the home-folks call by his first name instead of his title of area-salesman. To them he is the Company. All day long this chap in whose job some of this Com- parry's top-flight executives got their start is on the go from one out-of-way place to another more remote. All day long he's busier than a one-man band twinging it for the jitterbugs. At a single isolated garage he may fill the tank, install a display, collect a bill, paint the pump. That makes him the dis tribution department, the pro motion department, the collec tion department, and the main tenance department all within a few minutes. Besides that he has to be a diplomat and a man who knows everybody like any ambassador. City dwellers never meet him. But he's a good neighbor to them, just the same a good neighbor on wheels. He's the reason you can go anywhere, any time, confident that where ever, whenever you need them, every motor necessity will be on hand come flood, come fire, come anything.
