PR a i -------- x an v eA 24 WINNETKA TALK October 3, 1925 CAR COSTS RECEDING Automobiles Represent Best Value Among Present-day Commodities, Says Chrysler Dealer "Never in the history of automobile industry has the public been offered such motor car values as is true today," said W. P. Reagan, of Evanston Motor Sales, North shore Chrysler dealers. "Motor cars today cost 30 per cent less than before the war. Commodities in general cost 67 per cent more. "Not only have motor car manufac- furers found new ways of effecting economies in manufacture but they have also discovered new ways of re- ducing sales costs. Not only have manufacturers reduced prices but they have also reduced finance charges and insurance rates until today almost ev- ery family is able to own its own motor car. "The time is rapidly coming when there will be 30,000,000 motor cars in the United States. This is a surprising number but it is in the same propor- tion to population as there are regis- tered automobiles in California today. Need Better Roads "All of which means that highway construction must be speeded up and the work of widening streets and re- building and replanning cities must be hurried along. The motor car, after all, is simply a means of transportation and nothing must be permitted to handicap the progress of motor car transportation. "One of the things that has stimu- lated motor car sales has been the in- troduction of the Chrysler Plan, a plan to reduce finance charges on cars sold on the deferred payment basis and a plan also to lower fire and theft in- surance rates. The Chrysler Plan, in- augurated July 1st, by the Chrysler Corporation, is resulting in a monthly saving of more than $400,000 to Chrysler car buyers. It is a plan which will be followed shortly by other manufacturers." CIRCLE TO MEET The New Trier circle will meet at the home of Mrs. Hymen Raclin, 528 Elder lane, Tuesday, October 13. This is the first meeting of the new season and all members are requested to be present to discuss plans for the coming Gear. ---- Mrs. Buckingham Chandler, 9 Indian Hill, was hostess at a small dinner party October 2. Following the din- ner, the guests attended the moon- ight ball at the home of Mrs. Ayres oal. Predict Huge Crowd For Illini- Nebraska Game This Saturday The largest first-game crowd in Illi- nois history will assemble in the sta- dium this Saturday to see Illinois and Nebraska meet in the most important carly fall football game in the country. From all over the state of Illinois and nearby Indiana, the eager fans are coming. The Nebraska game is one of the three big ones at Illinois this season. Unusual national interest is lent be- cause it is the 1925 debut of Red Grange and it looks as if every metro- politan sports writer and news real and photo syndicate photographer would be there #0 inspect the Illinois flash and see if he is going to repeat his sensational feats of 1923 and 1924. The Illini believe that Grange is in tip-top shape and that it will take a mighty good team to stop him. On the other hand it is going to take all of Red's skill and speed to lead the [lini to victory. Nebraska, coached by Ernest Bearg, for four years an assistant to Zuppke, is coming with a veteran line, headed by Ed Weir, All- American tackle last year. Miss Elsie Blatchford, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Frank W. Blatchford of Arbor Vitae road, is visiting in Cali- 'ornia with Lieut. and Mrs. A. Albert Gleaves Berry, Jr., whom she accom- panied west about a fortnight ago. She will remain their guest for a hrief time.
