Freeport is to have another new industry known as "The Salient Sales Corporation". According to the incorporation papers it is organized to sell automobiles and accessories at wholesale and retail. The incorporators have secured the selling rights for 10 counties for the Stephens Salient Six automobile, extending from Rockford to Dubuque, which will include many splendid towns for agencies and should become a very large and profitable business. Later on they expect to add more territory and extend their operations over several states. They will also add some other makes of cars to their line and do a jobbing business in automobiles, tires, batteries, chains, etc., as well as operating a repair establishment. The corporation has leased the new O. H. Wright building being erected at the corner of Stephenson and Mechanic streets, which is 63X120 feet and will have a model retain salesroom and garage. The offices will be on the east side, facing Stephenson street, and the sales and display room west of that and extending to the corner. This will give five large windows for display purposes. The storage space for cars will be immediately back of that and partitioned off, and the repair department and work some in the extreme rear. There will also be a ladies' retiring room in the front part of the building, just off from the salesroom, that no doubt will be greatly appreciated by the lady tourists. The salesroom will have a white tile floor, brass rail around the windows, wicker settees, flower boxes and ferns, and will be beautified in other ways. Take it all together it will be one of the finest display rooms and garages in this part of the state. The retail department and garage will be in charge of Carl Jurgensmeier, one of Freeport's rising young automobile men. He has had the Cadillac agency for several years and has been very successful. Ferd Gibler will be in charge of the wholesale department and no doubt will bring in many handsome orders for The Stephens Salient Six cars and accessories He has been connected with the purchasing department of the Stephens plant for some time and thoroughly understands the business.
