A Message
To The Man Who Says:
"I'd Rather Pay Rent than
Own My Home"
We have, converted many rent payers into home owners
Every argument in favor of paying rent through the
year ia ewept away with an understanding of the
convenience of the present low-cost, long-term home
financing loans. You pay a small amount monthly, like
rent but unlike rent, you are acquiring home ownership.
Each payment is building a valuable asset.
Come in and let Mr. McKay show you the sound reasons
why your rent payments should be converted into home
purchase payments.

1937 Ford V-8 owners pay less for their cars, pay
less to run them, and travel first class all the time!
Basic reason is the V-8 engine. Eiplit cylinders
give smoother performance. V- type construction ia
the most modern on land, sea, or in the air, and
permits a much more compact power-plant. Space
saved under the hood means more room in tho
body, and more comfort.
This year's V-8 engine is offered in two sizes.
85 horsepower for top-notch performance. 60 horse
power for rock-bottom economy. The latter, avail,
able in five body types, makes possible the lowest
Ford pricf in years and the greatest gasoline mileage
in Ford history.
To this choice of V-8 engine sizes, add the other
Ford first-class features Center-Poise Ride, Easy
Action Safety Brakes, all-steel body, advanced design
-and you'll realize why the Ford V-8
is the quality onr in the low-price field.
