A FINE COMMUNITY TO LIVE IN On Route 12 -- 3 Miles North of VoIq Turn Left on Rouqd Lake Road 3^ Miles McHENRY, ILL. \ PHONE 4{J7 traveling salesman was Harry G. Blowe, Who could sell ice cubes to an eskimo, But he fell for a line slicker than his, From a new car salesman--wow! what a whiz! The car had style-years out of date, The features were new--back in '48! Harry's still smiling, the tears hardly show, But how he wishes he could get back his dough! X Moral: Don't get "bargain-talked" into yesterday's styling and features! Like a lot of people, Harry was looking for a "good buy" in a new car. But no car is a bargain if it's outmoded, before you drive it a mile. For the same money, Parry could have stepped up to a dashing Swept-Wing Dodge--so new it actually obsoletes other cars in its field. Obsoletes their high, boxy design with the low, low look of tomorrow. Obsoletes their old-fashioned features with such advancies as Torsion-Aire Ride, Push-Button TorqueFlite and Total-Contact Brakes. So don't <Jo what Harry did--please. See your Dodge dealer today. Join the swing to the Swept-Wing Dodge! £ rt
