THE MILL CITY ENTERPRISE HUCKLEBERRY FINN YOU« ’ (Nu. 2 of a series) How Can a Person not versed in the tubjecl tell a good road from a bad one? It Isn't As Easy as you might think. A road may look very strong, yet be weak. It may look inadequate, yet be competent to handle all the traffic that will use it. There Are Three things necessary to construct a good road, students at a famous engineering college are told by one of its wisest professors. Those three things are: One. a good founda tion; two, a good foundation; and three, a good foundation! You Can Prove for yourself that a road is no better than its foundation. Take an ordinary sponge rubber mat, place a sheet of paper on it; then stand on the paper. What do you get’ A broken, cracked or indented sheet of paper. Then place an identical paper on a firm floor and stand on it The result is—undamaged paper. SWIM AS WELL AS FLY. zaust IT’S AMAZING!

This Is Conclusive evidence that it is the floor that holds you up. not the paper.

It is difficult to imagine more convincing proof of Chevrolet's superiority, for such clear-cut and overwhelming preference can lead to but one conclusion: Chevrolet trucks must be better, must enjoy solid advantages over other trucks. Such preference must rest on a firm foun dation of good, sound value. And, of course, it does—as owners of Chevrolet trucks can testify.
