SQUARE DANCE Slagle Memorial Bldg. .Saturday Night, April 4 At 8:30 to 12 EXCELLENT MUSIC Sponsored by American Legion Post 108 r There's an old saying that a thing is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. Well, if you could tour the wholesale and retail used car auctions around the country, if you could survey hundreds of used car lots you would discover that used Fords bring higher prices than any competitive make ? and by substantial amounts. THAT'S WHY we feci our '53 cars should not be compared with cars in the same price range. Not because our competitors don't do a good job ? obviously they do ? but because we feel Ford Cars have more in common with the highest priced automobiles. The similarities arc fat greater than the differences. for cxainj>le. Today, the most expensive cars in tin's country have \ -type, S-cy 'Under engines, l ord ('.ars have had this exatt same type ol engine lor over 20 years. What's more astounding, the current Strato-Star V-v selh for hundreds of dollars less -than several other makers charge lor a six-cylinder car. Now there's nothing wrong with a Six but they do cost less, to make, l ord makes a Six ? the most modern overheat! valve Six in the industry, And if it's a six-cylinder car you want, Ford has it and for less money than the V-8, which is as it should be. ff hat abou I rule ? Here's another Ford similarity with high-priced cars . . . liuling Comfort. One of the misconceptions for many years has been that weight ? sheer weight ? is what it takes to make a car ride well. Ford has found that you can make a 3000-pound car ride softer and hold .the road better by far than many cars that weigh a full 1000 pounds more. In the '53 Ford, for example, front end road shock has been reduced up to 80%. We say it compares most favorably with the heaviest cars sold today. If liat about automatic transmissions? Ft would take the fingers of l>oth hands to count the various kinds of automatic and semi-automatic transmissions on the market today. The one we offer is called Fordomatic. Jt is the most versatile oil the market, it represents the most profound consideration of engiiie-to-wheel power transfer ? and that it does the best job for our engines isn't even open to question. It "shifts'' better than you could shift by hand. ff hat yon ran see is also important. Hire aj;ain lord ("ars lead not only in their price field but ill the medium and upper brackets as well. Ford visibility is Full-CircL Visibility. This means huge, curved unobstructed glass ana, front- and rear, plus side windows that allow all passengers what the hotels call "room with a view." .4/>i>earancc? A higher price, of course, docs not make a car more beautiful. Conversely, beaut) in a Ford comes "for free." Ford has found that it costs no more to develop a beautiful car than one that is less pleasing iu appearance. You can drive up to the most exclusive doorways iu the world and feel perfectly at home in your Ford. Fords "belong" . . . in exactly the same social category as the finest, one-of-kind creations. After all, a Ford is a custom creation multiplied. If ha t about running coats? Here's one place that Ford's advantages arc obvious. For oil and gas economy Ford has the big cars whipped. Ford parts cost less. Ford service charges are less. Ford tire mileage is thousands of miles greater. And, Ford depreciation is the lowest of any car on the market ? bar none. What arc Fords matte Some people have the idea that the costliest cars arc made of "better Stuff." It's true that some high-priced cars have costlier upholstery and fittings. What Ford has is so good, both in durability and appearance, (bat you probably could not tell the difference. ? on might even prefer it. I>ecause ol Ms better vles^n and more pleasing appearance.

I'lie desire for these things is understandable . . . and probabk justified for people who are willing 10 pay the price to satisfy it. As to comparing Ford with other cars in its price range, by all means do so it you wish. Hut, as we said before, you'll get a better picture of Ford value by comparing with cars that are most like Fords ? those that are priced up to twice as much. In fact, we think, you'll quickly begin com paring the other cars with Ford ? because the Ford has really established the New Standard ot the American Koad. . ? ?

C Here Are Ways To Keep Child Busy While 111 Being sick and confined to bed is no fun for anyone ? par ticularly for young children who are eager to be outside playing with their friends. But this period of confine ment can be made easier for the child in bed by giving him some quiet recreation, says Miss Cor inne Grimsley. State College ex tension specialist in family re lations. Have you last year's Christ mas cards lying around any where? If so, bundle up a few of them, get some plain white construction paper, a jar of paste and some blunt-end scis sors. Your child can have a lot of fun cutting out figures from the greeting cards and pasting them on white paper to create any number of interesting pic tures. Maybe he'd even like to create his own personal holiday card for next year. It seems that almost every mail delivery these days brings a colorful seed catalogue. Why not let your child plan his own flower or vegetable garden while finishing out those last few days in bed? You might help him draw up a diagram using any available ground space to the best advantage. He can de cide upon the various plants he wants to grow, plan their ar rangement, and then ? with your help ? order the seeds. It'll give him something to look forward to while he's getting well. And if your child is not really very sick and his diet is not re stricted to liquids, you might let him help you plan some of the week's meals ? giving him of course, some of his pet dishes. Letting your child par ticipate in these little activities will keep him from feeling sor ry for himself and neglected. The appearance of the sick tray, is also important. Just a touch of greenery or a few early-blooming spring flowers can pep up the most depressed spirits. . Asheville Woman Jdins Hardwood Company Staff Mrs. Evelyn. H.
