SERVICE AT FRED HUGHES—One of the many services rendered by Fred Hughes, Dodge-
Plymouth dealer, included excellent body repair, as shown above, to your automobile. W.
R. Tubbs, body repair manager, is shown as he uses the electric sander on a badly-dented
and scarred fender which will look as good as new when it is finished. Lawrence E. Smith,
service manager, is shown looking on. A Porto-Power hydraulic jajck appears in the back-
ground. Trained efficient personnel and modern mechanical equipment make it possible to
offer complete automobile service at Fred Hughes. (Photo by Don Hutcheson).

Just like a woman needs a new
Gonnet to mark the new season,
so your automobile needs a "spring
cleaning" now.
“Cards have been mailed this
week to every Plymouth and Dodge
owner in the county, urging them
to come in and get complete auto-
mobile service." Fred Hughes.
Dodge-Plymouth dealer, reported.
The Dodge-Plymouth service de-
partment can put your car in per-
fect mechanical condition while
giving it, at the same time, the
Appearance of a new car. With
modern and complete equipment
and experienced personnel, four
departments are maintained: body
repair; front end and wheel align-
ment; regular motor and chassis
correction; washing and lubrica-
tion.
A complete stock of parts and
accessories is on hand to fill the
needs of any automobile.
"We are particularly happy to
announce that we have a good
supply of new motors,” Hughes
added. "Installation of the motor

urges drivers to bring their cars in
for careful point-by-point lubrica-
tion. How long has it been since
you've had your car's crankcase,
differential and transmission
checked?
How long has it been since your
automobile or truck has had an
inspection for proper wheel align-
ment and wheel balance? It's im-
portant. he emphasized, that the
inspection be made right. If out-
of-line or out-of-balance conditions
exist, it's equally important that
they be corrected promptly and,
accurately. When a wheel is only
1-2 inch out of alignment, the tire
is dragged sidewise 87 feet in every
mile of travel—meaning that rub-
ber is scraped off and tires wear
out-and cost you money. *

On the Job:
There isn’t a service your car
requires which we aren’t staffed
and equipped to provide. If your
car is sold, it certainly needs
good care to keep it an the

Liability Policy
Is Needed By All
It happens everyday—not just
in the headlines but to you and you
and you.
A dog bites a child. A brush
fire burns a neighbor’s fence A
maid falls down stairs. A sliced
ball hits a caddy. A fisherman
hooks a companion's ear. Such are
the headlines every day that you
read and pass by. But if you were
the person responsible, then these
headlines would mean a bill that
you would be called upon to pay
—or perhaps a lawsuit.
The Employers Casualty com-
pany provides splendid economical
insurance protection against such
accidents. The insurance covers
these situations and many, many
more in a single policy, W. Lon
Steffens, district manager, ex-
plained.
The policy is an Employers
Casualty Company Comprehensive
Personal Liability policy which re
lieves you of any legal liability
worries—and lets you go merrily
on your way.
Steffens urges Abilenians to call
a representative from the district
office for complete information
concerning this policy and many
other service facilities offered by
the Employers Casualty company.
And to think this policy costs
only $10.00 for one year—and their
current dividend on this policy is
20 percent.
