- YOU'D be surprised at the slaves you. could.

| go, the fp oasure you could have, the things *

you rou o, and the time you could Bave,, if
you only had a Ford,

You could go over and call oftener.on your
friends and liven-up those “lonesome” nights.
Your friends would then begin to repay your"
calls—and™ wo ‘know just how ‘evenings fly
when friends drop-in.

A In good weather, you could drive the family out’ on Sunday _
afternoona ‘to the akes, or, the groves, and placea where the
gladness of living @boltnds,

You could BP oftener to town—and pick, out the things you
- Jike for yourself and children.

You eould add so much more to your daily life if your
family only had a Ford, that-it is sarprising ¥ you haven't just
~made a way to get one. You probably don’t know on what
a easy terms you can buy.a Ford, otherwise you.just would have
| had one long ago.
