Nothing is really appreciated until we are
suddenly deprived of its benefits. Luxuries be-
come necessities from continued use. For in-
stance—the sudden shutting down on an ice,
electric, or water plant, or the failure of a
favorite grocery store is inconvenient and
annoying.
To be deprived of accustomed service, even
though the service is deserving of occasional
criticism, is really provoking. Consider the
advantage of having in your town, a well
equipped garage where you can come or phone
and get on a moments notice, most any article
that you may need for your car, and get it
without money if your credirt is good, and it is
good with us if you have MADE IT SO.
Consider our stock of casings and inner tubes
of all sizes in the well known brands, such as
Goodyear, Goodrich, Racine and United States
casings.
Also we carry in stock a full line of generator
and starte brushes and platinum points for all
cakes of cal's and magnetos. Consider having
viii bat of Ford parts so that you can always
be able to get anything you want in that line.
Also remember that when you buy year gaso-
f us you see what you are getting and that
