ONLY A LIMITED NUMBER OF FORD CARS

There are mighty good reasons why you should buy your Ford car now. But the biggest one is that there are only so many Ford cars—just a specified limited number— allotted to this territory! Those who buy their cars now will be wise.. They will have them to use whenever they wish.

Don't put it off—next ^pring, even next month, is an uncertainty. We cannot take orders for spring delivery. Even now, we must have signed bona-fide orders before our monthly allotment is shipped us. So the only way for you to be sure of getting a Ford car, is to order it now. Get your name on an order. It is your protection.

Again we tell you, the allotment for this territory is limited and you must buy now while deliveries are possible. As ever, the demand for Ford cars is away in advance of production. So, it's first come, first served. Spring, summer, autumn and winter are all the same to the Ford car. It is a valuable servant every day of the year. Rain or shine, it is ready for your demands. Buy now and get prompt delivery. You woii't iiave to store it. You can use it. Buy now while the buying is possible.
