JONES— “ What did you give for that car, Smith?"
SMITH— “ Thousand and F ifty, what did you pay fo r yours?”
JONES__ “ Oh, I bought a Ford, only cost me Four F ifty."
SMITH__“ What do you figure you saved buying that priced ca r?”
JONES— “ Just Six Hundred to begin with.”
SMITH__“ What about the up-keep, the cost in the end?”
JONES__ “ It is generally conced d that the Ford ear has the great
est second hand car value, but fo r the sake o f argument, let’s sup
pose that your car and mine will depreciate the same each year,
which according to average depreciation figures amounts to 35
per cent the first year, 15 per cent the second year and 10 per
cent each year follow ng.”
SMITH— “ What’s that got to do with it? ”
JONES— “ Just a little late to tell you
Smith. You’ve
already
bought.
But here goes: You paid $1050 for your car. I
paid $450 for mine, a difference of $000. That $000 invested
in a more profitable proposition than you have already chosen
would have brought you 0 to 8 per cent interest or $30.00 to
$48.00 for twelve months.”
SMITH— “ Sounds pretty g ood .’’
JONES__ “ Your car will depreciate 35 per cent o f the ariginal cost
the first year, or $307.50. Granting, fo r the sake o f argument
that mine will depreciate in the same ratio here is another difference
o f $210 in my favor.”
SMITH— “ That’s right.”
JONES— “ That’s a total o f approximately $250. Now you’ll drive
your car at least as much 881 do mine, and I figure I’ll drive
mine 5,000 miles the first year.”

This should not
be turned down at this time as it is
in the interest o f every home in the
community and it is a mistaken idea
that those who do not get on now
can do so when the line is built
without paying for their share in
the line, until six years have passed.
A fter the six years are up any one
can get on, but all should make this

WANT UNO FOR SÄLE ADS
SMITH— “ Yes.”
JONES— “ Well then, divide that $250 by 5,000 miles and you will
sec that it’s going to cost you 5 1, cents more per mile to drive
your $1050 car than it does tooperate my $450 Ford, and I’ll go
any place you will. Yes, and 1 will have much more com fort driv
ing my Ford car through the city traffic than you will driving your
big car, not to mention the easy time I will have parking my car
compared to parking yours.”
SMITH— “ I never thought o f all those things, Jones.”
JONES— “ I did. And furthermore it’s useless to mention the ad
ditional necessary expenses tooperate the cars. Your insurance
will be about the same as mine. W e’ll say you will not spend
any more for gas and oil than I will, and give you an even break
on the tires, though it will cost you considerably more to replace
those 32x4 cord tires than it will fo r me to replace my 30x3 V4
fabrics. And remember, Smith, the repairs are the most im
portant expense o f up-keep. You’ll be paying $50 for a radiator
when 1 am only paying $16.00; or $0.50 for a front fender while I
will only pay $4.00.”
SMITH— “ Say, Jones, where were you yesterday, ten minutes
before I bbught this car?”
JONES— " ‘round at BOB COOKE MOTOR CO. buying this
Ford.”
