ECONOMY is judicious expenditure. The
r. purchase of good automobile is judi
- cious expenditure.
To the business man, the professional man and
the farmer, the automobile has become neces-
sity-it saves time, covers more territory, gets
more business-in this way automobile makes
money.
To the family it brings health, enjoyment open
country, better associations perhaps at less cost
than vacations and other forms of "amusements."
The purchase of STUDEBAKER Car is not
only an economy and "judicious expenditure"
but it is an investment. The Studebaker Car is
standard of value and quality. 1t is generally
recognized as of the best motor values in
the world
The high used car value of Studebaker Cars in
ratio to first cost. makes it easy to change a
Studebaker Car back into cash, if necessary.
