It makes the whole world kin, Oscar Wilde Something you should think about if you're about to buy a truck If all trucks were, built the same way, cost the same to keep up, were worth the same at trade-in ... then probably the price tag would be your only concern. It can't be, of course, because some trucks have more quality than others. And marks of quality are' the real 1 rs to low cost. Chevrolet trucks, for example, have double-wall construction, which gives bodies and cabs more strength. Cabs are insulated against heat, cold and noise. A big. part of road shock, which shortens truck life, is damped out by Chevrolet's suspension system; it also makes riding in the truck a pleasure. Pickup bodies and cabs are separated to eliminate stress between them. Value such as this has induced more people to invest in Chevrolet trucks every year since 1937. This can be a good time to buy a modern new Chevrolet truck Late summer traditionally is the season for all-around savings on a new Chev rolet truck . . . selection is still good . . . deliveries are prompt . . . and Chevrolet dealers are doubly anxious to put you into a new vehicle in order to make way for next year's models. Coupled with the efficient performance a new Chevrolet truck will give you, it seems evident that you couldn't buy at a better time. Come in and take full advantage of it!

HenaUtoa, Oregon Ph. jo 7-eesi Ob Hermlatoa-McMary Highway SOMETHING To Think About-- Last week a representative of a Savings Stamp organization called on me and informed me that if I am to survive as a merchant it appears that I must start giving away Savings Stamps with goods purchased from me. I think he is wrong. I have always given a reasonable discount for cash purchases. With the cash saved by buying from me you may go to any store in town and buy anything you choose from a reputable merchant. This saving can be spent immediately as is. It is not chopped up into hun dreds of little pieces to be licked and glued back together. You need not leave town in order to spend our money as is necessary with trading stamps. You can buy first line merchandise right here at home not "reject" or "obsolete" merchandise. There is no need to deal with out of towners, with someone you don't know and have no reason to trust. Don't you think it makes sense to buy locally, save money and turn around and spend the savings locally? I think it does. LOTTS ELECTRIC HEPPNER PH. 676-5811
