Buy an automobile as you would buy a house
An automobile is a major investment and a
similar utility. Be sure to choose one that
you can spentl long hours in without discom­
fort and without nerve strain. Be sure that
it is built of good materials, strong and safe,
that it is equipped with every convenience,
and that it* appearance will he a credit to
your practical good taste.
The Chevrolet
has all these qualifications and in ad
«lition is very economical to operate.
