Do You Need Truckers?
The answer is " yes," hecause every man responsible for the " in
ternal handling of goods by trucks needs more. truckers. and
can't get them.
Better Trucks relieve this situation ty enablingyourpresent
force to handle more goods at a decreased cost per ton mile.
One man can handle, on an easy running Hyatt-equipped truck,
loads that require two and three men on an ordinary friction
hearing truck. He does it -without overexertion and can keep
it up all day without excessive fatigue.
Give a hundred Hyatt equipped trucks to your gang and see
them fight to get one of these husky, easy running trucks that
lightens the load and keeps truckers, in good humor.
"A Gentleman to See You"
If the gentleman is one of the Hyatt Better Truck Fngineera
it will pay you to see him, and talk with him for a few minutes.
He knows truck designs, truck materials, truck specifications
hut best of all he knows Better Truck Performance. Perform-
i
ance counts and when you hear the story of quality trucks that
"perform their work quickly, economically, and constantlyf,you
will want them to perform for you.
Remember Better Trucks arc not special they arc just capable
trucks built of honest materials by progressive manufacturers.

Mme. Tetrazzini, the glorious, coloratura soprano, sings at the Metropoli
tan Opera House tonight
SHE AND THE HARDMAN PIANO
for this artiste is never accompanied by any other instrument.
The great artists, Caruso, Tetrazzini and the galaxy in which they shine
whose voice is their fortune, the creature of nature and interminable hard work
take no chances. The voice like a child quickly picks up bad habits and a queer
"a" might end a career. t
Mme. Tetrazzini wrote Messrs. Hardman, Peck & Co., New York makers of
the Hardman
"I am again delighted to be able to use your perfect instrument on my forth-
coming transcontinental tour in America during the season of 1919-1920. It has
always given me thorough satisfaction."

1917.
Sinoo Koombor 1911, this Oonpany has
been uolng, exclusively, the Hardman PlanoB. There
have been eigiteen of these 1 intrunents In constant
use In the dressing roomc of the artists, In the
orohestra, and elsewhere for practical work, besides
a largo nunbor used by the artists In their private
apartments, and It gives me much pleasure to exoress
on behalf of thle Company 'and also tho artists taking
part In the performances, the thorough satisfaction
we all feel in these instruments.
The fine tone quality, fullness and splendid
durability of tho Hardmsji Plano3 are fully recognized
by evory-ere hore, and It is very evident that they
must be-'exceedingly well built to stand the usage to
which they are'subjeoted, owing to the extremely heavy
demands which we make upon them.
Wo shall start upon tho coming Cearion of
1917-1918 with complete assuranoo In regard to the un
qualified satisfaction that the Hardman Pianos will
give to us, and to our artists.
Believe me,
Very truly yours,
Administrative Seefetary.

New York City.
Hardman, Peck & Co., New York
Operate two factories that function as one musical organization, although the
