Cab Always Keeps in Fit Condition Have you ever thought how seldom it is that vou see a YELLOW CAB breaking down with a passenger in it? And have you ever noticed how seldom any part of the cab's equipment is missing or in poor con- dition? 7 e Well, that is in no sense ac- cident or lucky circumstance. It is the direct d natural result of System, Organization and Financial Responsibility. Cabs can't I;ecp themselves n condition. They can’t do their ing and repair work. They don’t oil and wash themselves. How long do you think any cab would keep in first class condition if its owner trusted to luck or followed no plan or system- atic maintenance like so many cab owners do? own inspects Do you know that this or- ganization has been developed from the ingi Do vou know that our executive out exception, are ex-chauffeurs and mechanics —and that they know these cabs as a mothey knows her child?

YOURS TOMORROW! j READ THE NEW YORK SAMPLE SHOP AD IN TOMORROW’S PAPER! for the me by by the ber of | country | | The cart efore the horse v To choose a new car simply on the basis of the largest allowance for your present car is like putting the cart before the horse. For the real measure of a trade-in transaction is how much new car valile you get for your pres- ent car, plus the balance that you pay in cash. Y ou trade-in your present car for a new-car most wisely when you are guided by these facts: 1. Your present car has only one fundamental basis of value: that is what the dealer who accepts it in trade can get for it in the used car market. Your present, car has seemingly different values because . .. . . competitive dealers are bidding to sell you a new car. The largest allowance offered is not necessarily the best deal * for you. Sometimes it is; sometimes it is not. An excessive allowance may mean that you are paying an excessive price for the new car in comparison with its real value. From the car-buyer’s standpoint, a trade-in trans- action is a purchase, not a sale. So first judge the value of a new car in comparison with its price, including all delivery and finance charges. Then weigh any difference in allowance offered on your present car.
