THE UNIVERSAL CAR The Ford Sedan, with its exceedingly comfortable and refined furnishings, its neat appearance and every-day-in-the-year utility, is an especially attractive motor car for women, meeting so fully all the demands of social and family life—a delight to women who drive because of the easy, safe control. Summer and winter it is always ready—never a doubt about that nor never any fears for trouble on the way. Then the cost of operation and upkeep is very small. Sedan, $695 f. o. b. Detroit.
