They help the family enjoy life, bring the pleasures and advantages of the town within reach of the farmer and give practical service every day in country and town. They require «a minimum of attention; any one can run the Ford and care for it, but it is better to have repairs and replacements taken care of by those who are familiar with the -work and have the tools, the genuine materials, and skilled men to do the work prompt- ly. We pledge Ford owners the-reli- able Ford service with real Ford parts and standard Ford prices. EARL C. BOYLEs Authorized Agent 231-237 N.
