DO YOU RIDE THE BUS?
A government expert has calculated that it
costs 10 cents a mile to operate an automobile.
This takes into account the expense of gas and
oil, tires, repairs,'wear and tear qf machine and
all other incidents of the cost of riding.
A bus is how operating from Danbury to Win
ston-Salem daily via Walnut Cove and German
ton which transports passengers at five times
less expense than you can use your own car, to
say nothing of the difficulties in gas and tires.
You leave Danbury at 8:30 a. m., returning at
5 in the evening. The distance either way is ne
gotiated in hour, comfortably and safely.
The bus has been patronized but moderately so
far. In case the investment does not pay the op
erators, the bus service will be discontinued,
which will be something little shoit of a calamity
when the time comes—as it is coming—that your
tires will be worn out.
Take advantage of the public service which
saves you money and enables you to have rubber
for and emergency.
