A set of ignition brushes boxed and
labeled; several extra spark plugs,
clean and adjusted, and in carrier;
tire presser gauge; squirt can of oil,
with flexible nozzle if there are many

spool of copper wire; several lengths
of different sizes brass spring wire, a
bag Of clean waste or rags, and if you
like clean hands, a box of the new
kind of soap paste, which can be used
without water.
All of the things enumerated will
stow in the tool box or under the seat
if properly wrapped, labeled and pack
ed away. Some of them will not be
needed often but when you need a
thing while touring you need it bad

One reason why the latest Offering Of

An Investment
Message

This is our ninth eff
fort to get a message
to those who are so
fortunate as to have
ready money to invest
at this time. The long
continued period of
high interest rates,
which was one of the
principal causes in de-
preciating the value of
true investment securi-
ties, is bound to react
sooner or later under
present existing busi-
ness conditions in
fact, the high rates are
already clumbling. Low
interest rates, or even
a reasonable assurance
of them, are bound to
bring about a further
enhancement of market
value in the true in
vestment securitie e S,
and so we say again:
perhaps never again
will there be such bar
gains in investment securi-
ties as the market now Of
fers, and SO we say to all,
and this means you,-
scrape together all the
money you can without
borrowing, and buy in
vestment securities - and
buy them now"
We regret if you were
one of those who failed
to act on our previous
messages, nevertheless
we again say, "buy-
and buy now." There
are still many wonder
full bargains on the in
vestment counter. We
see no reason why in
vestment securities will
not continue to adj
vance, and especially
in view Of the evidence
of an easier money
market.
We solicit your con-
fidence and patronage.
If, however, you care
to go elsewhere for ad-
vice, we will not be
entirely disappointed.
If you are properly adj
vised you will greatly
profit from this advice.
The object of this Oft
repeated message is not
to force you to buy
from us or to take
clients away from other
houses who heretofore
served them well. We
want to be not only
useful to the investing
public, and especially
to the public who
should be investors but
are not, but we also
want to be useful to
all of the many invest
ment houses who know
that their clients in
terests must govern,
rather than their own
interest. However, if
you want to rely on
our judgment, it will
be treated as an honor
transaction.
Yours cordially.
