The 180 program Includes the repaving of more than a doxen streets and avenuen. Two of these which are in very bad h.ipe ara South Broadway and West Klevrnth Avenue. The board of public works will probably s'iirt to adopt primary resolutions for the street Improvement in about a month. The streets to be ripaved are betn: districted so that certain proups may be awarded at a time. It Is believed by this metho dthe cost of Improvement may b reduced for the reason that contractors havtnjr their Jobs close together can do the work cheaper than 1? tho jobs were widely scattered.

THE UNIVERSAL CAR

Buy Now While Deliveries Are Possible Buy your Ford car now while deliveries are possible. There is only a limited, specified number of Ford cars allotted to this territory. You will be wise to buy one now while we can get cars to deliver. A signed order with us is your protection. Even our small allotment of Ford cars is not shipped until we have bona-fide orders for them. This is because the demand for Ford cars all over the country is greater than the supply or production. So don't depend on spring delivery. Only o many Ford cars will be shipped into this territory; only so many will be able to get Ford car. If you would be forehanded and plan ahead you will have u deliver you a Ford car as soon as possible. Then you will have it to use whenever you Want it. The Ford is an all year utility in your home or business. Its serviceability, its ease of operation, its low cost of maintenance has made it such. It will serve you the year round. Spring and summer, autumn and winter, it is your servant; always ready to do 3'our bidding. E. N. Bunnell Motor Co.
