FORD cars are built for hard service, and they will stand a lot of
punishment—but if you want to get the best results out of them, you’ve
got to be FAIR with them.
We expect to be here for years to come—at your service. Let us
help you give your FORD car a SQUARE DEAL.
That’s why AUTHORIZED FORD SERVICE STATIONS have been
established—to help FORD owners give their cars a square deal. We
operate one of these AUTHORIZED STATIONS, designed and equip-
ped to give your car the most expert and efficient service.
Mr. and Mrs. Granville Ball, resid-
ing south of town, announce the
birth of a son last Sunday.
Our mechanics are experts on FORD cars. They work with the
BEST machinery and tools that money can buy, and use nothing but
GENUINE FORD PARTS in making repairs—parts made for FORDS
by specially trained and well-paid workmen, under most careful super-
vision and of the very best materials.
Our men do not tinker with your car, wasting expensive hours in
“investigation.” They know how to locate trouble quickly, they work
rapidly, and their work is thorough and genuine.
Fifty’ Silk Dresses just received; most all
of them are flat crepe, attractively made
and in a wide range of colors—monkey-'
skin, coral blush, grecian rose, olive-
green, and others. Specially priced—
We want every FORD car to give its owner every bit of service that
is possible. That’s what sells more FORDS.
You will find our prices reasonable. In fact, FORD prices today
are the lowest in the history of the industry, and prices on FORD repair
parts are constantly being reduced in accordance with the FORD policy
of keeping all Ford operating costs as low as possible. You will find
them even lower than you expect.
