FRIENDS-AN OPEN LETTER:
| Court duties are keeping me

counties in the district, it is not

personally; therefore I am taking
this method of placing my candi-

The records will show that the

saved, during my term of office, an
amount equal to several times the
entire salary of the district judge

Pontiac Franchise To
Homer Duncum Motor
1
A sales and service franchise for
Pontiac automobiles in this terri-
tory has just been granted to Hom-
er Duncum Motor Co. by Pontiac
Motor Co., it was announced by G.
W. McKinney, district manager for
the company.
The new dealership is equipped
to look after the service needs of
all Pontiac cars in this locality.
A representative line of 1936 Pon-
tiac sixes and eights will be on
hand for demonstration and deliv-
ery, with the second carload of
these automobiles being received
Wednesday.
In commenting on the new ap-
pointment, Mr. McKinney said,
“Pontiac Motor Co. is delighted to
obtain such an aggressive and well-
known dealer organization to han-
dle its complete line of six and
eight cylinder cars in this locality.
‘That Pontiac design and serv-
ice have been highly satisfactory
is evident from a single glance at
the sales and production figures
of the last two years. Sales were
doubled from 1934 to 1935, while
production jumped from 76.000 in
■ 1934 to 175,000 in the year just
- closed.
“Many more Pontiac cars could
have been built and sold last year
if the company had had the capa-
city during the spring of 1935 that
it possesses today. As a result of
this increased capacity, it is ex-
pected that sales will easily reach
the 225,000 mark that has been set
for 1936.
“Included among the features
that have made the 1935 and ‘36
Pontiac cars so outstanding are the
fine triple-sealed hydraulic brakes,
solid steel turret-top Fisher bodies,
knee-action, Fisher no-draft venti-
lation, silver-alloy bearings, full
pressure metered-flow lubrication
and many others. Its reputation
for splendid economy and dependa-
ble performance is 'tops’ among
motor cars.”
Homer Duncum Motor Co. is
holding open house this week and
the motoring public of this com-
munity is invited to see the new
Pontiac cars for 1936 at the sales-
