with all the dependable, enduring and economical qualities
that have made the Ford "The Universal Car." One fact
Is worth more Gian a ton of guesses. Ford cars uro sell-,
Ing from five to ten over any and all other cars, simply
because they give more satisfactory service, last longer
and are easier to operate and cost less to maintain—and
there’s no guessing about the reliability of Ford Service.
