They made quick work of the Quecns boulevard and Stephen headed far a straightaway he knew well on an open side road. There were no crossings for several miles, nothing to obstruct the view, but Stephen covered the distance with moderate speed, explaining to Lefty that he was giving the road a once over.” There were no ruts or holes, so he turned heck, remarking to his comprnion that the car had been broken in at the factory.

How vast and far-reaching will be the service rendered by this organization is indicated by the fact that there are today over 23,000 Genersl Motors dealer’s service stations throughout the United States. The system inaugurated by the Fisher Body Service Corpora- tion will be the first centralized, economic and truly efficient body service the industry has yet known. Such a service system is possible of course to General Motors alone, be- cause Fisher Body, the source of bodies for all General Motors cars, is a corporate part of General Motors, which it supplies with bodies year after year—thus being certain always of this great permaneat market. Fisher Body Setvice makes available to every General Motors car owner everything he may require in the way of body maintenance and rehabilitation, and will enable him to ob- wain complete service—service for car body as well as car chassis—from one source, his car dealer. Such service as the elimination of body annoyances, the adjusting of tie-down bolts, the periodical dressing of the roof, the lubrication of door lock bolts, door checks and hinges, the cleansing of soiled upholsteries, the bumping of fenders or panels, will aow be performed in your dealer’s service department. The car owner will be thus freed from the necessity of turn. ing for his car body's maintensnce to small shops whose in- adequate equipment compels them to charge exorbitant prices, and from which geauine Fisher Body parts are not obtainable. Now, through General Motors dealers, Fisher Body parts will be supplied at factory list prices wherever and whenever they are required, registering & marked saving to the car owner. For General Motors dealers—and their mechanics who have been instructed in the care of bodies for more than 2 year— there have been made available the tools and equipment necessary for actual and immediate service. Two Fisher Body service schools have been established— one in Detroit, one in Oakland, California—where thou- sands of General Motors men will be trained. The Fisher Body Service Corporation has also established Parts Depots at these points where complete stocks of genuine Fisher Body parts for General Motors cars are held ready for im- mediate shipment upon order of General Motors dealers. Fisher Body considers the inauguration of this nation-wide Fisher Body setvice a vital, progressive contribution to the public, especially because of the immeasely increased inter- est which owaers are manifesting everywhere in body beauty, body comfort and body durability, - General Motors Spring Showing, April 20th to 27th.
