only last longw, but it will give you bettei
service as long as it is in use.
So when you buy your new car, the very first
thing to do is to come to us for full instructions.
'We will register your battery, and at the same time
will be glad to give you a copy of the booklet, "Wil
lard Service and You."

When a "man demands credit he
must prove two things first, hia own
stability as a member of the com
munity, and second, his justifical ion
for the use of credit. :
The man who buys an automobile ,.

sessed of a standing In the community

the money that he will be able to pay
off the debt In Incurs, but alsobas
some ligltimatc use. for the automo
bile, he buys. This Is the class of
buyer whom the automobile industry
serves most und whose use of the
automobile is the economic justifica
tion for the enormous growth of the
industry. It ta this class of buyer that
the Acceptance Corporation serves

Earning Power
The most expensive item in operating a truck
is INTERRUPTED SERVICE.
A truck out of use not only stops earning, it
stops other operations. Delayed collection of work
means delayed deliveries, with dissatisfied custom
ers and often a I0S3 in trade.
White Trucks have the highest o7erating effi
ciency known. They stand up and keep going in
definitely, year in and year out When you want
them they are ready.
Their ste"ady volume of performance insures
high earning power THE. MOST WORK FOR
THE LEAST MOMEY.

lower than for any otbe-history.
A complete statement of rate from
the highest to the lowest is ia Fay's
hands.
"Generally speaking, they are about
half as high as the rates that prevail
ed at recent national conventions at
Chicago and St. Louis " Fay said, de
spite the' fact that prices general ly
have jumped sky high since those con
ventions."
The highest rate charged will be
$1 per day for double room and bath.
The rates range down from that to
$7 a da. Accomodations of San
Francisco and Oakland were handed
over ia bulk by the Hotel Men's Assn.
All assignments for delegates wore
made via the accommodation commit
tee. The good result, according to
Fay. was possible because the hotel
men "sat in" on the deliberations and
convention in! agreed that for the sake of San Fran-t
Cisco's fair name nothing should be'
done that would savor of the jiouge.
Fay is now busy arranging a Cifr
price for meals, but be admits this i
harder to solve. He believes, however;
that the city's restaurant men will re
spond as the hotel men have done.
"We will not tolerate any effort tot
'gouge a comentior. visitor." F.ty said,
j "f don't care to discuss that matteri
now . but a way will be found to bring ,
effective .pressure against any man
iwho tries to get unfair profits during,
convention week."

Even Two Coats of Paint Give Less
Than a Hundredth of an Inch Protection
When you know that you must depend on a paint film less than
a hundredth of an inch thick to protect your buildings from weather's
wear and tear you begin to realize the vitalness of buying the right
paint.
An outside paint must be not alone waterproof but weather-proof.
Making a paint weather-proof is the difficult part. . If it is not
weather-proof it will not long stay water proof.
To be weatherproof, thc paint film must
be so elastic that it will expand or contract
with thc weather's changes and do it with
out cracking.

Taint is specially made to meet tkaaa ren
ditions. That Is iwby it stands so many
ears of weather's wear and tear.
The picture u.ove la talrrn from a pho
tograph showing a two-coat film of Hitch

w.is over- two months old when photograph
ed; yet it was as flexible as a handkerchief.

or want to prevent them, tell us about your
painting needs. The expert advice given so
gladly will cost you nothing. It ma save
you much.
