that if he can get rid of the old car,

problem, whereas he should be re-
minded that his problem is very
similar to the dealers and that if an
automobile dealer disposed of his
used cars by such unbusinesslike
methods he wouldn't last a year"
The w. \. II. \. paper points out

These customers are willing to take
what the ear in its true condition is
worth because they know that the

There are other people who try
questionable selling tactics in order
to dispose at an attractive price some
