Yet more distinctive even than this beauty of line and color is its alert and sprightly performance. « « « « As days go by you will find that it becomes more and more your favorite car to drive—so responsive, so easy to handle, so safe and comfortable that it puts a new joy in motoring. The city dweller — the farmer — the industrial worker — the owner of the spacious two-car garage in the suburbs —to all of these it brings a new measure of reliable, economical service. Craftsmanship has been put into mass production. Today, more than ever, the new Ford is “a value far above the price." ««««««««« FOIIII MOTOII COMPANY
