The Savage Woman submits for a while and then but see the results. $ For the greater protection of owners of Ford cars, that they may receive the largest possible service from their cars, the Ford Motor Company has adopted the liberal policy of selling to any responsible Qarage throughout the United States, the genuine Ford Parts, upon such Garages- agreeing to give the real Ford service. This accomplishes two splendid res ults. First, the widest possible satisfac tory service to the owners of Ford cars; Second, a larger and more profitable businessifor every Garage. The millions of Ford cars in daily operation mean a larger volume of ser vice business throughout the country. The number of authorized Ford dealers is not sufficient to care for this immense volume of service trade, but now, wherever the Ford owner may drive, in any directipn, in any state or territory, he will be within arm's reach of reliable service with the benefits which come from the use of genuine Ford Parts. There is now no reason why .every Ford owner may not demand and insist upo n genuine, Ford Parts being used when his car requires attention. We will be pleased o supply any reliable Garage in our territory with the genuine Ford Parts promptly. HENDY-OGIER AUTO CO., Ford Authorized Sales nnd Service.
