John Spena has things fixed up so
nice that one wouldn't know that his
Office was in anyway connected with
Henry Ford as it looks more like a
place fixed up for such companies as
the Hudson, Cadillac, Paige, and other
$4,000 car concerns. But just the same
it is a very neat Office and the fix
lures are good enough for any bank
or trust company. All John has to do
now is set around and take in the
coin for Ford cars and repairs.
