ASHLAND. JACKSON COUN TY. OREGON.
VOLUME 3
By Arthur Brisbane
The city o f Syracuse spends on
motoring seventeen cents out of
every dollar of income— and old-
fashioned finance, wagging its
head, says ‘ 'extravagance.” B uy-'
ing new automobiles takes ten and
quarter cents, gasoline three and
a half cents, accessories
three
cents. And that’s the best invest
ment of seventeen cents on
the
dollar that Syracuse could make.

ASHLAND
If a hoptoad could buy wings
for seventeen cents on his dollar
and fly, instead of painfully hop
ping in the dust, he’d be a fool not
to spend the seventeen cents. Au
tomobiles is flying. Get a car if
you have not got one, or a better
car if you can afford it.
