Our Service Department solicits the pa- tronage of Packard owners—not for profit, as the profit on even our volume is negligi ble—but because we are extremely solici- tous of every owner’s good will toward his Packard car, and we, better than any other shop, can insure it.

In addition to the customary service facilities, we have operated for nearly five years what, for lack of a better name, has been called our “Insured Mechanical and Lubrication Service,” whereby a Packard owner can budget the cost of operating | and maintaining his car. For a fixed sum, so trivial that it seems almost absurd, this company assumes all responsibility for re- | ‘pairs and maintenance work, even the fur- . nishing of the motor oil. (This plan has recently been adopted by the Packard Mo- tor Car Company of Detroit.) We go even further, for in conjunc- tion with our Service Department we p maintain complete garage facilities where : Packard owners may store their cars, with delivery and call service and all gasoline furnished for a flat fixed charge. This service has demonstrated to hun- dreds of Packard owners that it is more economical to own and operate a Packard than many lesser cars whose initial cost his necessity for repairs may be minimum. It is our inclination to encourage an owner to curtail his orders for repair work rather than through the lure of profit to “build up” a job through the recommenda- tion of more work than necessary. A very large proportion of our repair work except that on the “Insured Mechanical and Lu- brication Service” is on the flat-price basis —a plan under which a given number of hours is allotted to a given repair opera- tion and the price established, thus guar- anteeing to the owner that if a workman does overrun the allotted time established for a good man, he, the owner, does not L pay the penalty for the slower work of such individual. Our sincere and constant interest in the good will of every Packard owner to- ward his Packard car—which no other than a Packard shop can see keenly feel— is an asset greater even in value than al this fine building, these wonderful facili ties and this long-established human ex- perience that we are now placing at the In the fleld of foreign languagcs courses will be given in elementary and ad: vanced French and Spanisn and, in addition, any of the following languages for which there are sufficient registrations: German, Polish, Russian, Czech Italian, Portuguese, Chinese.
