But we think it will not be long

interested in the beer question.
Truth is the liquor interests make

al horseless carriage, one could
not be built and sold for as low as
three or four hundred dollars, But
Ford did 1t. The Ford automob ie
sold at one time for $345, and, it is
to be taken for granted, it paid at
that price. for Ford has made
money. A year or so before the
price was placed so low, Ford made
given number OF "Flivvers" with
in that year he would send a check
for $50 to each person who had
bought one. He did this.
Now Ford comes along and says
he is going to put out a $3.50 auto
mobile. Is there any reason to be-
lieve that he will not make good?
He knows what it will cost to turn
out that automobile before he even
begins the foundation for the fac
tory; he knows what the selling
cost will be; he knows in close
proximity to the number he will sell
in a year, and doubtless knows with
in very few dollars just how muc h
profit he will make. That's busi-
ness
AS a matter OF fact. Ford will do
real service in putting such an au-
tomobile on the market He will be
doing Il service to class which
needs it, There are many people
who wish to go to certain places
and come back and do not care n
deal about the style in which they
go, just so they get there and get
back home. We should say this
class is in the majority in this coun-
try. They perhaps can afford $3.50
cars while they cannot afford those
selling at present prices. And fur
thermore. for a town business car
to be used between the home and
the office what would serve better
than cheap fiivver: one whose
owner would not be worried when it
begins to cloud up overhead or the
sunshine threatens to crack the
paint? The $3.50 fivver is just the
thing.
OF course. we're giving Mr.. Ford
some real good free advertising
herein, but IL he gives us an auto
mobile at the price OF $3.50, well be
repaid and perfectly satisfied. Au-
tomobiles have ceased to be con-
sidered as luXuries. They're neces-
sities.
