FOMnftDIOS ARE MUCH IMPROVED Invisible Speaker is Mounted Above the Windshield- Set is Six Tubes. With the current year’s produc tion totaling close to a quarter of a million sets, the Ford Motor Com pany announces numerous improve ments to the 1936 Ford radio, which is good news for those who expect to put in a car radio as a New Year present to the family. From the standpoint of appear ance, the most important change is the adoption of an invisible speak er, mounted above the windshield. The sloping of ear-level reception. The set continues to be of six tubes, but with a number of chassis The chassis case has been shortened and made more com pact, fitting underneath the instru ment panel and above the steering colmn. Sensitivity of the Ford radio has been increased and its internal cir cuit filtering has been improved to keep out external interference, such as that from high tension wires ond street cars. For the city driver, es pecially, reception now is excellent. The speaker is of a new design mounted flush o nthe header bar above the windshield. When install ed it is completely out of sight, covered by the car trim. The speak er cone has been re-designed to in sure improved reception throughout the scale, including high notes and bass notes. Instead of having a three point tone control, a constantly variable tone control is now used. It is expected that in 1936 the volume of Ford radios will be ma terially increased owing to the fact that every day more and more motorists' are turning to the use of car radios.

Other living prices have climbed high, gone down, now are on their way up again. But that most helpful of all modem neces sities—electricity—has gone merrily downward, is cheaper now than ever. Alow!

Now everybody can enjoy more leisure and more pleasure, thanks to cheap electric serv ice. And the more you use, the more fun you have in life—and the less it costs you per unit used. i THURSDAY, JANUARY 16TH, 1936
