Compiled By Alired Reeves, Gen- ?3:,‘ of interest to automobile owners | m RY 10, 1916. H. P. SEYMOUR J. P. GRADY J. F. DALY W. J. LANGDON SERVICE ARE YOU REALLY GETTING IT! OES the dealer of whom you bought your automo- bile render service? HAS he the equipment and men to give you proper service? To what extent is the service rendered? F HE does not, the initial cut he gave you in the price of your car is more than offset by the expense and annoyance you are put to by lack of service. DID your dealer always give service, or has he been forced to do so? Is not the fact proved that itis a stronger asset to obtain a bonafide amount of service than it is to receive a cut price on a car? THE above questions should be considered seriously by all persons contemplating the purchase of an automobile.
