' So today in the business work, and especially in the automobile market with the present1 ser ious shortage of good cars, there are new, un known or makes of previous poor repute, which can now offer you as their chief inducement, an immediate delivery. I appeal to you that now, more than in or dinary times, you will do well to consider care fully the car you buy. I am making deliveries on gopd Dodge Brothers and Chandler cars, to those who have ordered them in advance. If you need a light, good, car for your service. I would advise you to wait until you see the new 1920 Dodge models, which are 'now -being shipped to all dealers. 'My first new models will be in this week. A little patience now will repay you many times in the future service from the car you buy. And if you do buy from me, you may expect to be taken care of; for, from now on, my place will be solely a sales and service station for my own cars exclusively.
