WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, FRIDAY, AUGUST 23, 1918 OLDSMOBILE IS NOW SOLD ON NORTH SHORE R. D. Cunningham, Ford dealer for this territory, has added the Oldsmobile to his line. "For several months," says Mr. Cunningham, "I have been examin- ing and have paid an expert to ex- amine every reliable car made. This was because my future as a dealer is dependent on giving the fullest measure of satisfaction. The result of our examinations and tests was that I chose the Oldsmobile, for its quiet, smooth-running motor, its mechanical excellence, economy of operation and good lines. The price for the six-cylinder car is $1,395 and for the eight-cylinder car $1,700, and I consider these two models the best purchase today at anything like these prices. : VILLAGE OF WINNETKA SPECIAL ASSESSMENT NOTICE WINNETKA SPECIAL ASSESSMENT NUMBER 270.
