DODGE BROTHERS

MOTOR CAR

Its Goodness is alone responsible for the nnusual 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 & 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.

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 apon price, but upon the quality and valu that it embódie.

Expectations of a good exhibition of tennis, yesterday, when N. E. Kent and F. A. Redmond met G. Manley and A. H. Rumjaha in the semi-final round of the open doubles championship. were belied, for a large gathering watched a untch that went into 18 'games. Kent and Redmond were favourites, mainly on the strength of their services, but, in at least two of the acts played, Rumjahn and Manley gave them a very good "run for their 'money."

The firal set provided a ding-dong struggle, with each side gaining a game in succession. Mantry and his partner won the first game and their opponents the next. Manley took the next ganze with his service but Kent and Redmood, obtaining three games in succcasion, were leading 1-2 at one stage. Manley and Kumjahn achieved similar distinction, and not only equalised, but assumed the lead, 5-4. From thin

Particularly brilliant play by Kent, tear the net, and several mistakes on the part of Bomjahn, combined to give the second set to Kent and Redmond with comparative ease, Kent, and Redmond won two games before giving their oppon- ents one, and then obtained another two zamca before Rumjahn and Manley were able to increase their ecore by one. Again Kent and Redmond ran away with two games, and won the set, 0-2. Both Kent and Redmond made good use of their height at the net, in this set, and I peatedly beat their opponents, whose

Export- anontal shots by Redmond, and smartaces at the net by Manley, gave the latter and his partner the next two games, and there was great excitement when once again the scores were level. Eight more games were played during which there were some magnificent rallics from the service line Rumjahn making up for his mis- takes on the base line by judicious plac. from close quarters.

Redmond and Kent were both playing too well for the result of the match to be a maiter of doubt, and when Rumjaho missed

several easy drives in the first two games it became plain that Kent and Redmond would be victorious. Redmond and Kent secured the first two games, and Manley, serving, obtained a
