" Changing Mecthods | B + When first I bought myself a bus, long vears ago when cars were new, kicked up an indecent fuss be- cause my credit wouldn't do. “You pay the cash,” the agent said, “and then you take the car away; your credit’s good when buying bread, yaur stand-off's good for coal or fiay; but we can't sell a brand-new boat on time, as you can surely see; or wind it round a red clm tree.” 1 borrowed money from my spouse I owe that money now! aced a mortgage on the house, an- other mortgage on the cow; by hook and crook I raised the sum, and then I paid the money down; I hought the car and made her hum, 10 miles an hour, all over town. In those brave days man had the price. or else he couldn’t buy a van; his plea and promise cut no icc, he couldn’t melt the auto man. Now things are easy for the gent who is from opulence afar; he doesn’t nced to have a cent when he goes shop- ping for a car. He may be asked a dollar down, and 20 cents a week for vears; if he refuses this no frown upon the dealer's brow appears. “Since you are short the dollar bill, it cuts no grass,” the agents say: “the car is yours, already, still. so ve the blamed old thing away. Once cars we for the idle rich, but now we see a long black streak of busy. chooing hoats for which the | owners pay 10 cents a week. (Copyright) WALT MASON.
