Miss Esther Feltz entertained the senior girls, Miss Pryor and Mr. Treadway at an elaborate six o'clock EXCELLENT UNIT TYPE DEMONSTRATOR This Self-Contained Type of Demonstrator Has Many Advantages [Farm Light & Pow^r, April 15, 1922] , W. L. Howell of W. L. Howell & Co., dealers for the Kohler plant and distributors of Exide batteries at McHenry, 111., is a strong believer in what may be termed the "self-contained" type of demonstrating plant. The accompanying photograph will show very plainly what is meant by this. Mr. Howell mounts his Kohler plant in the miniature house on a twowheel trailer, so that he cannot only ihake the demonstration wherever desired, but can even leave the entire plant at the farm for two or three nights. * At night the name-plate "Kohler" is illuminated from the inside of the house, while at one side near the wheel, as may be seen in the photograph itself, there is a flush receptacle for the attachment of a cable to carry current into the house or barn in making a demonstration. One of the great advantages of this unit, or self-contained, type of demonstrating outfit is the fact that leaving it does not tie the dealer's hands for two or three days. You may have two or three or even mOre of these demonstrating units in action at the same time. On the other hand, a demonstrating unit mounted directly in the body of the car puts the machine out of commission whenever it is necessary to carry on a demonstration over more than one night. Mr. Howell reports that the demonstrator is a very successful aid in getting business and confidently expects it will pn up a long list this year.
