Emerick Returns From Hup Dealers' Convention H. C. Emerick. local manager for the Xeighbors Motor Company, at 1-0 Market street, has returned from the second annual convention of Hupmo bile dealers at Detroit. The three-day cession was marked by fun and feast ing as well as inspecting the factory and consideration of sales plans. Every dealer had a good look at the new model K and a ride in it to see how it acts. That it tills the bill was more than made evident by the good things that were said —and not whispers—by the men whose business It is to place Hupmobiles in the service of satislied customers. The car was admired and praised from every standpoint—size, beauty, finish, upholstery, equipment, room, power, electrical system, performance, speed, etc. Even with the banquet waiting It was difficult business to round up the men and drag them away from the new car to the hotel. But it was done finally. The ban quet was a climax to the best three days any dealer or group of dealers ever spent at the factory, and the sec ond annual meet came to an end. The new model K was the center of Interest and made the feeling general that it more than ever strengthens the Hupmohile's position as being far above the ordinary class and that it will meet with a most gratifying wel come from the buying public. is said by every dealer that, with out doubt, this model is the greatest production that has ever left the Hupp factory, and if this attitude can be maintained throughout the year the convention will have been a most sat isfying success.
