If those tempted to buy could
only see the crowd they are imitat-
ing scratching to pay and submit-
ting to humiliation at the instance
of the professional collector, such a
sight might take quite a bit of the
romance out of ' their possession.
It is no wonder the fearful young
wife exclaimed, when her husband
announced another payment to the
doctor who had assisted her first
born into the world: “Thank
heaven; one payment more and he is
ours to keep!” The sense of debt
is oppressing; it interferes with j
clear thinking and hence lessens j
efficiency. The first question to j to the woman he married,
Did you ever hear someone read

CALENDAR FOR THE WEEK
KEEPING STEP WITH
THE CROWD
—o—
The orgy of buying beyond the
means is largely the result of an
attempt to keep step with the crowd
which, as soon as it sees it is about
to be overtaken, increases its speed
just so much more. A desire to
outdo the other fellow seems over-
mastering to some characters, until,
so long as credit can be obtained,
a man finds himself suddenly hope-
lessly involved. Really it is all the
result of cowardice. Some men
have not the courage to say: “I
can not afford it.”
Pledging the future for things not
necessary, simply such are possessed
by another, leads more people into
financial trouble than almost any
other yielding to the temptation to
buy without taking account of the
fact that there must be a paying
time coming. In the United States
today are more than a million folk
who hate to hear the doorbell ring
and answer it, if at all, with the
expectation of discovering a collector
insisting on money.

Chrysler “72” performance
makes all other performance
in its field seem as out-of-date
as last year’s license plates. All
you have to do is to ride in a
“72,” and drive it to appre-
ciate the difference.
Only Chrysler’s great engi-
neering staff and precision
manufacturing organization
could have developed 75
smooth horse power from an
engine of such moderate size.
You can, at will, do 72 miles
an hour and more—velvety,
easy miles—due to this unique
and vibrationless engine with
counterweighted seven - bear-
ing crankshaft.
It takes mountain grades at
constant acceleration. In
traffic, the “72” flashes to
the fore with characteristic
Chrysler get-away.
Only a demonstration can
prove to you just how much
better the “72” performs.
Illustrious New Chrysler ”72” Prices—Two-passenger Coupe
(with rumble seat), $1545; Royal Sedan, $1595; Sport
Roadster (with rumble seat), $1595; Four-passenger Coupe,
$1595; Town Sedan, $1695; Convertible Coupe (with
rumble seat), $1745; Crown Sedan, $1795. All prices f.o.h.
