These resolutions are easy to keep because a Ford Sedan costs less than
any other open car. Henry Ford himself fixes the retail price to you the
same price everywhere except for freight. And th at price is now lower than
ever before on the Ford Sedan. It may go higher soon.
So, RKSOliVK to have a Ford Sedan delivered at once. T h a t is the wisest
and best resolution you can make for 1921 the easiest to keep and the h a p ­
