We believe that after reading further you will admit that it has some bearing. Everyone knows that the last two days have been far from dry. Ordinarily, such weather conditions would have proved disastrous to a Used Car Sale, or, in fact, any sort of sale. In spite of that fact, an average of 10 prospects called at our show rooms in person, against every 1 prospect who called on the phone for information. Designating those who called in per- son as “Wets,” and those who called by phone as “Drys,” over the period of the past two days, we find that the “Wets” win—10 to 1. Proving that a Wardman Used Car Sale will function in spite of all the efforts of “Old Jay Pluvius” to spoil it. And—we are even more firmly con- vinced that “It is Cheaper to Sell them than to Pay Rent.” Eight More Days to Go Wardman Motor's Inc. 1711 14th Street Corcoran Courts Overlooking Potomac Park, Lincoln Memorial, the Potomac River and Arlington Hills 23rd and D Sts.
