THE ALLIANCE HERALD, FRIDAY, APRIL 2, 1920.
AN OLD-TIME ALLIANCE VIEW
The above view was taken In the garage run by Jan. Kecler, lorated where the Schalfor battery station now
lands on EaRt Third street. It was in 1908 when motor cars were In their Infancy and when a one-lunger
end a two-lunger were Just the thing. The first two cars shown are a one-cylinder and a two-cylinder Reo
Third car Is Doc Copsey's first Lambert. Fourth car Is nlo a Lambert and the last one was a big six-cylinder
car called the Klckctts. This big car was seemingly ahead of Ite time In thoHe days and Ir.oked upon with aw'
and wonder by the denlteus of this little village. Mrs. Kecler occupies the first Reo In the picture, her daugh
ter, now Mrs. Schaffer, and a girl friend were at the wheel in the second Reo, and Keeler himself was holding
the lines In Copsey's car when this snap was taken. The sign hanging on the wall was painted by Bill Rumor
and shows the skill of a real artist. Ed Henry, Link Low 17 and Dill Rumer were among the first who owned
two-cylinder Reo cars In those days, and Rumer says he never drove a better car in hla life. A glance at those
old-time models shown In this picture and a look at the latest type six-cylinder Reo like The Herald is giving
way for Us capital prize, shows a long step In the way of body-line Improvement and mechanical excellence
Mr. Keeler Is quite proud of this picture and regards It as a relic of those good old days when motor care were
considered more or less as an experiment.

INDEPENDENT PLANTS
HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL
What has been the history of pack'
ing plants In other towns than Al
liance really independent plants,
not affiliated in any way with the so
called "big five," and not owned by
families nor by close corporations?
Have plants of this variety been sue
cessful elsewhere, and are they re
garded by the respective towns In
which they are located as distinct
assets to the community?
The Uiance chamber of commerce
undertook to secure an answer to.
these questions. Letters of inquiry
were sent out to various chambers
of commerce throughout the coun
try, in towns in which such plants
are located, and these direct queries
were put before the secretaries.
Most of the replies have raehd Al
liane, and, to the extent of almost a
unanimous chorus, they say "Yes" to
the two principal questions which
were propounded. The operation of
these plants has been successful, and
they are regarded as distinct assets
to their towns.
Occasionally the answer has been,
"Plant not In operation long enough
to give an opinion," or words to that
effect. In two or three cases it was
said that at first there was lack of
proper management, but that there
has been a change In management
ar-4 present prospects are assuring.
These are, however, the exceptions
a' me the replies. Broadly speak
ins they indicate unmistakably the
fact that independent promoted pack
ing plants in the United States have
been uniformly successful ana hare
meant much both for their stock
holders and the communities In
which they are located.
