barber prices here never reached the
ridiculous proportions such as OBJ

one time they had the crust to ask q
dollar for a haircut and SOC for a
shave or haircut on the face. Now
the BARRIERS have voluntarily put the
price back to 40c for haircut and
zoe for a shave with other prices IN
proportion. This will make every
body glad and be stronger boosters

that G. H. Vesperman is still driving.
This car has been on the road almost
all the time since then and is in good
shape today. The engine runs smooth
and powerful the springs are good,
the upholstery is good, the paint is
good and the side curtains are good.
The probabilities are that the old car
is in better shape today than the one
Charlie sold when he took the older
vehicle in. The old car has a feature
not seen today--a web drive.
