Extension Telephones save stepsj NOBODY has yet figured out exactly what an Extension Telephone saves in shoe leather. But in nerves, tired limbs, and need less steps it saves a whole lot more than the few cents a day it costsl You can place your order with any telephone employee or just call our Business Office and say "I want an extension telephone". The Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company Analyze tmie Allowance n Yotik njE (Dam If a dealer pays you more than the true worth of the car tie must make up the difference by extra charyes on the new car or re-sell it to some one else at too hiyh a price PERMANENT value is always better than a tem porary bargain in the purchase of an automo bile. It pays to look ahead and consider reliability and ultimate up-keep costs, as well as comfort, safety, speed, and beauty of line and color. Since most automobiles are bought for replace ment, the value set on your used car is a factor in almost every purchase. Frequently it is given an importance beyond its true worth. Used cars have a definite market value and you are justly entitled to an allowance based on that value. It is not fair that you receive less. It is not to your best interests to receive more. If a dealer pays you more than the true worth of the car he must either re-sell it to some one else at too high a price or make up the difference on the new car. This he cannot do unless he is allowed an excessive profit on the car or on financing, extra equipment and other charges. In either case, you pay the bill, for no way has yet been found to give something for nothing. The money must come from somewhere. You may not get the largest used-car allowance from the Ford dealer, but that very fact should give you confidence that you are receiving full value in the new car. Ford charges are not marked up or increased to cover a high trade-in allowance on your old car. Because there is no waste, extravagance or undue profit .in manufacturing, distribution or selling, every dollar you pay for a Ford brings a full dollar in return. In lower first cost, in reliability and long life, in the low cost of operation, service and replacement parts, the Ford will save you much more than the seeming difference in trade allowance. FURTHERMORE, at least $75 extra value is given to you in the new Ford in the Triplex shatter-proof glass windshield, the Rustless Steel, the five steel spoke wheels, and the four Houdaille hydraulic double-acting shock absorbers. The unusually large number of ball and roller bearings, and the extensive use of fine steel forgings instead of castings or stampings, are other features that show the extra quality built into the Ford car.
