THE UNIVERSAL CAR
For the greatest protection of owners of
Ford cars, that they may receive the largest
possible service from their care, the Ford Mo-
tor Company has adopted the liberal policy of
Polling to any responsible Garage throughout
the United States, the genuine Ford Parts, up-
on such Garages agiceing to give the real Ford
si 1 vice. This aeeo- plishes two splendid re-
sults. First, the widest possible satisfactory
service to the owners of Ford cars; Second, a
larger and more profitable business for every
Garage. There is now no reason why every
Ford owner may not demand and insi3t upon
genuine Ford Parts being used whon his c\r
requires attention.
