THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, FRIDAY, JANUARY 21ST
DODGE BROTHERS
MOTOR CAR
Its Goodness is alone responsible for the unusual demand
that has existed right from the beginning.
Nothing has ever disturbed the demand for this Car.
No outside conditions,
no conditions inside the industry seem to slow it up a particle. The people want the Car more intensely at this moment than ever they wanted it before. The Car has reached the stage when its sales are almost automatically increased. By this we mean that one sale is almost certain to result in one or
two other sales.
There is a very pronounced and definite public opinion now in this country concerning the Dodge Bros. Car.
that People seem to know that Dodge Brothers' idea, from the very first, was that if they built the Car right, nothing else mattered. It is the quality revealed in its performance which makes the price impressive. People are attracted by something more than price; it is the internal and external excellence which characterises the Car.
The high price it demands when sold second-hand increases the respect in which the Car is held.
It would be hard to find a truer test of enduring worth. People are not eager for used Cars unless they know that such Cars have before them a long life of satisfactory service.
And so the Dodge Brothers Car is bought, not upon price, but upon the quality and value that it embodies,

As Kowloon have only played 7 matches and have lost one, their record is better than that of Craigengower's. but they. alan, have to meet the Artillerymen twice and the Civil Service once. Much will depend on how the two rivals far against the Artillerymen. Kowloon can rightly claim, I think, to be stronger in batting than Craigengower, but the latter have the advantage in bowling, for, with the exception of Pestonji against whom offensive tactics will be. found to pay, Kowloon bave not a bowler quite up to the standard of Lam-Kowloon in a Becond Division league mert, Omar or Grimmett.
