Quantity Sales Means Quality
Service

Service
z The day is passed when the
manufacturer and the dealer thot
tkeir responsibility ended with
the sale of carr says Tuxhorn
Brothers, local dealers inChev-
rolet passenger and commercial
cars.
To-day the matter of service
obtainable for a car is hardly less
important than the designing and
building of the car itself.
THE value of an automobile
lies in it's ability to afford relia-
bic transportation. The owners
time and money depend on such
performance. He wants intelli-
gent cooperation from his dealer
in the matter of instruction and
the care of his car. He wants to
be assured that he will find such
service wherever he may travel.
II he buys a car that is popular
that is sold in quantity all over
the country. he is sure to find
such service as this every place
he goes. All service stations be.
come familiar with cars that are
widely used and there is always
a dealer who is interested in see-
to it that he gets the result he
should from the use of his car.
''And manufacturers who pro-
duce automobiles by the hundreds
of thousands are not content to
build car that, with proper at
tention, will give dependable ser
vice. 1t is easy for them to du-
plicate parts while the car is built
and these are contantly sent out
to replenish the Dealers stock.
The dealer in passenger and
commercial cars of this type are
always in position to supply the
owners wants accurately, prompt
ly and intelligently. And that
means a saving to the customer.

Too bad that old maid cannot
get a husband" remarked a
smart Aleck of a very charming
maiden lacy the other day.
But the old maid" is fortu-
nate in at least one respect-she
hasn't smart Aleck for a hus-
band.
She is not an upstart's slave.
and so doesn't have to stand the
abuse of one who doesn't know
how to respect his own mothers
sex.
She may be an ''old maid" in
point of years, but she is honor
ed and respected. and decent peo
pie do not turn from her in dis
gust when she makes a remark
about other people.
An "old maid without a hus-
band?
Possibly so.
But of infinitely more value to
the world than smart Aleck.
