The Moore Motor Co. handles the Ford

Charles w. Moore and Edw. Christen-
son are the men behind the guns in
this rapidly growing business. Mr..
Moore has been connected with the Ford
business in Minot for a number Of years
and a little over Il year ago the company
outgrew it's business to such an extent
that it was necessary to build a fine
large garage and salesroom. The busi-
ness is still growing and the members of
the company feel that they could use
still more room.
The Independent is sorry to say that
the Ford advertises itself, consequent
ly the Moore Motor Co. are not among
the largest users of space in this paper,
but an interesting announcement APP
pears in this issue. This year, it will
behoove those who intend to buy Fords
to place their orders early for cars will
be shipped only upon receipt of n bona
fide orders.
OF course the Ford is great car for
the money. Everybody admits this. The
Ford is really one of the most wonder
full autos ever built and with just reas-
enable care it will always go to the end
of the road.
D. D. Whaley, a resident of Minot,
owns n Ford which he has driven near
ly 10000 and his "li'l OF Ford' is still
rambling right along. Mr.. Whaley will
