Gentlemen: 
You probably will be glad to know that 
my Johnson Motor has made a big hit at 
these camps. I have it now installed upon 
a 20-foot White Canoe with special square 
stem. The combination makes a motor 
canoe that enables me to do things that 
are impossible with the ordinary canoe. 
There are several other makes of motors 
here, but my Johnson is the only one 
which runs every day, whenever it is 
called upon, and always brings us back. 
You would do well to follow up the 
splendid reputation this motor has built 
up in this part of the country. Any num¬ 
ber of people, including guides, have said 
it is the motor they want. The other mo¬ 
tors here are all out of business for one 
reason or another, and my Johnson is the 
only one running as the season closes. She 
seems as good as new. I am very much 
pleased with it, indeed. Very truly,

think Christmas, as we know 
has been the Christmas we 
delight in. Yet they used to ceb 
Christmas on the 20th of May, 
of April and the 6th of Jan' 
depending on whether they were 
Greek or Roman Christians. 
’t until the time of Julian I, 
of Rome from 337 to 352 A. D., 
stmas was celebrated on the 
turning in large pnosphor-oronze Deanngs. 
2. The Johnson Float Feed Carburetor — not 
merely a stock carburetor, but Johnson de¬ 
signed for the Johnson Motor. Gives perfect 
gas mixture for easy starting and at all speeds 
and temperatures. 
3. The Johnson Quick-Action Magneto—de¬ 
signed by Johnson—is so completely protected 
from weather and damage that it stays right. 
(No batteries to carry.) 
4. Flexibility of speed and handling that you 
never dreamed of, resulting from a combina¬ 
tion of the Johnson Carburetor, the Johnson 
Magneto and Johnson’s exclusive patented 
universal-steering-and-reversing and tilting 
features. 
5. All tnis Guaranteed Dependability, Flexibility and Power ingeniously condensed 
into the delightfully light weight of 35 pounds 
There’s no Christmas gift half so practical for the lover of 
the water, the fisherman, the sailor, the hunter, as a Johnson 
Outboard Motor, Its broad usefulness makes it an ideal pos¬ 
session; it drives any row boat through the water swiftly and 
quietly; it is the only practical outboard motor for canoes; it 
is used as auxiliary power on hundreds of small sailing craft 
[even up to 35 feet]; weeds mean nothing to it; it slides over 
submerged obstructions without injury to itself or to the 
boat; it fits into a convenient carrying case that will slide 
under a Pullman berth. And above all—its owners say it 
has the happy faculty of starting when they want it to and 
running until they want it to stop. 
Think of all that usefulness condensed into a package that 
a ten-year-old boy can carry and handle—weighing only 35 
pounds, complete!
