Many concerns, many individuals, faced with overwhelming difficulties, have turned those very obstacles to profitable advantage. One New York town, on a branch line, was threatened by extinction by freight congestion. It could not get supplies and deliver products. An enterprising man organized a truck fleet, carried supplies Irom a nearby railroad, delivered factory outputs via the Erie Canal, and turned disaster into prosperity. There is opportunity everywhere for the alert man who is far-seeing enough to recognize it and has the nerve to grasp it. This is no time for the timid or the sluggard. If you sec an opportunity, nsk us to help you grasp it. The success of the Pierce-Arrow is knowing how. PIERCE-ARROW Motor Trucks No other company is equipped with service facilities like the Pierce-Arrow to insure the suc cess of our trucks. m FOR INSTANCE: Sinclair Refining Compuny boupht 100 trucks, choosing the Pierce Arrow. Sinclair depends on ils trucks to maintain its srmce to its rustomers. So Sinclair had to have a truck that would not fall them in any circumstances. Through subsidiary companies, they had had experience with cheap equipment. They found it depreciated too fast, was too often and too long out of commission. They examined Pierce-Arrow records In actual service and cboso on performance solely. Then they required service facilities in principal cities of New York, Massachusetts, Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Minnesota, South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma and Colorado. l'icree-Arrow afforded it. Pierce-Arrow had had experience in the oil business and could supply complete equipment, including tank trucks, suitable for every purpose. So they bought I'ierce-Arrows which are serving them satisfactorily In all of those states. Similar considerations influenced many nationally known companies to equip with Pierce-Arrows. Among those operating fleets in various cities are: These concerns know whnt they are about. So do the local users who are operating Pierce-Arrow trucks. Ask us to tell you about them.
