Every car sold will be entitled to a monthly inspection which includes ad- justing of motor, valve tappets, carbu- retor, fan, ignition, oil pump, generator, etc. With this inspection the car owner receives a comprehensive report on re- pairs needed and the approximate cost of such prospective work. The plan is designed to protect the car owner in forestalling motor troubles which mar the pleasures of motoring. he.

The real riders of a half century ago set a record of gdaysand 23 hours. Through bliz- zards and sandstorms, over mountains and deserts, among hostile Indians, the express riders of 1860-61 carried messages vital to In the sixteen months before the rails were : laid, they traveled a total of.650,000 miles with the loss of but a single pouch of mail.

But the spirit of devotion of its riders lives in the men and women who carry on our nation- wide telephone service. Bell System Illinois Bell Telephone Company * The Pony Express >
