Real Granite
THAT attention to business and grit will win through, George- Forbes bears substantial testimony; and it is' more than sheer Scottish tenacity which has won him the high, business standing that is his- in the -.easy-going Arcadie of Tauranga, where he is partner m a sound motor-car firm. - Forbes, whose rugged but goodhumored features denote the man who has seen life m several of its phases, for many years kicked about Australia after his departure from the granite city of ieen. He had not. been long m jjominion when the bloodthirsty yelps of the dogs of war roused his • fighting . Highland blood, and away he went, with the Haurakis. On his eventual returrilie entered the garage business, and having a natural bent for machinery, combined with a more than ; average thoroughness, he was not long m gaining the esteem of those with whom he came into contact; until to-day he is well established, and can boast, should he so choose, that his firm holds the record for the leading sales m the Auckland province lor one of fthe most modern car models on the market.
