people who have never been privileged to enjoy the benefits of motor car
ownership.
During the past fifteen years over 7,5 00,000 Ford cars have been placed in
the hands of retail customers—more than a million and a half of them
within the past twelve months—and yet there are still millions of families
who are hopefully looking forward to the day when they can own a Ford.
'And now the way is open.
Under the teruis of this plan you can select your Ford Car, set-aside a small
amount each/Week and you will be surprised how soon you will own it. In
the meantime your money will be safely deposited to your credit in one of
the local banks where it will draw interest.
Think it over. Five dollars will start an account. The whole familyscau
