Evening Republican, Volume 23, Number 77, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 29 March 1920 — THE FRANKLIN CAR [ARTICLE]

THE FRANKLIN CAR

wa* so well built 10 years ago that nearly all 1910- models are Tunning yet in daily service. Of course the current model is even a better car, but you find no changes in the general design and construction. . Too many improvements announced all the time proves a company's still uncertain. They may never survive the experimental stage. The Franklin is a proven success. You will not be disappointed when your money is gone. .. Like the man that took his wife to the hospital and went every morning to inquire of -her condition. Monday he was told she was improving. He was glad and came early the next day. He got the same answer. She was improving, and so it was every morning, always improving. One morning he was told she was dead. When he came to, he asked; “Well, what did she die of, improvements?” . /Moral: Don’t put your faith and your money into a car that is not a proven success. They may finally announce failure.
