Answer 1

Howard Johnson's is a U.S. chain of restaurants and hotels (now separate companies) which was founded in 1925 by Howard Deering Johnson when he borrowed $2,000 to buy a small corner drugstore in Wollaston, Massachusetts. It sold candy, newspapers and patent medicine.in the 1950s, Howard Johnson's opened their first motel. By 1961, the year the Howard Johnson Co. went public, there were 88 franchised Howard Johnson's Motor Lodges in 33 states and the Bahamas. That year there were also 605 restaurants, 265 of them company operated and 340 franchisee-operated.Although Howard Johnson's kept expanding, reaching over 1,000 restaurants and over 500 motor lodges in 42 states and Canada by 1975, (汽車旅館多位在高速公路交流道附近，或是公路離城鎮較偏遠處，便於以汽車或機車作為旅行工具的旅客投宿。) 他們唯一擴展國際上是巴哈馬和加拿大的的地方。為什麼? 他們有高速公路,便於以汽車或機車作為旅行工具的旅客投宿,並且他們是在美國旁邊。美國甚而考慮他們是美國的一部分。The 1970s marked the beginning of the end of the original Howard Johnson's concept. Over 85% of the company's revenues depended on automobile travel, and when the oil embargo of 1974 created nationwide gas shortages and inflated gas prices, more and more Americans kept their cars in the garage. At the same time, new competition delivered a one-two punch that hit the restaurant business and the lodging business, and it nearly was a knockout blow. America had become a nation in a hurry, and fast food restaurants met the new demand for a good, quick meal at a good, low price. Suddenly everyone was singing, "You Deserve a Break Today" and "Have It Your Way at Burger King." Howard Johnson seemed like yesterday's news. Changing times overtook the hospitality business as well. Somehow the spanking new Holiday Inn®, Ramada Inn® and Marriott® hotels that were springing up everywhere made those once modern Howard Johnson's Motor Lodges look...well, not so modern anymore.您可以看一看:America's Landmark—Under the Orange Roof  HoJoland.com  Goodbye to Howard Johnson's  A Vanishing Roadside Icon: Howard Johnson's  Howard Johnson's Connection to Nahant www.hojo.com/HowardJohnson/control/brand_history
