WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1921 SAYS FORD SEDAN APPEALS TO ALL Dealer Points Out Advantages of that Type Car for Persons in Many Walks of Life We have watched with considerable interest the increasing popularity of the "Sedan" car, says a north shore dealer. The open car will of course always have its vogue and we never expect to see it done away with, but the in- creasing frequency with which one meets the neat, compact and comfort- able little Ford sedan not only on our city streets but in the smaller places and even in purely rural districts, denotes that there are substantial and universal reasons for its adop- tion. As a result of our investigations we have come to the conclusion that there are several arguments in its favor and while there might appear logical preference for a closed car in special cases, the general run of pur- chasers are just as logical in their reasons. _ Doctors We can readily realize, for in- stance, that a doctor would find the closed car the most practical one for his use, especially in inclement weather, when it is desirable that he should be able to go in at once to his patients with first ridding him- self of the effects of rain or snow. In cold weather his hands are warm and on windy days he will not be powdered with dust. Lawyers We also find that lawyers are be- coming more numerous as buyers of the sedan, practically for the 'same reasons that the doctor has. These are, however, a more or less limited few and their preference for a car of a closed type is readily understood and appreciated. What we are spe- cially interested in are the reasons actuating the general run of Ford owners in deciding their selection. The Fair Sex Women with their perishahle mil- inery, their elaborate coiffeurs, also prefer the closed car, especially when making social calls. It has also many advantages for them when shopping, particularly since the introduction of the cash and carry system. It is a handy machine for taking the child- ren to or bringing them back from school in inclement weather. It is invaluable for the matinee habit and is an all-the-year-round car in every sense of the word.

The sedan is especially adapted to the requirements of the real estate dealer, particularly it is almost a ne- cessity for one handling subdivisions or suburban lots. Formerly, when the weather was in the least incle- ment, it was absolutely impossible to get a prospective customer to go out and see what he had to sell, but now his sedan is an insurance against rainy and nasty days and he can take both Mr. and Mrs. Purchaser, and, in the friendly proximity of his car, can be enthusiastically boosting his prop- osition, Owners of Higher Priced Cars There is, however, one particular class of customers to which we want to draw attention -- that is the pur- chase and use of the Ford sedan by the wealthier class. In tabulating the sedan sales we were surprised to find that men who owned one or more of the higher priced cars had bought a Ford sedan. It is used by them las an auxiliary car for theaters and i : fon occasions when they do not need a big limousine or touring car; its neat appearance and economy of op- eration all have their appeal to these people.

Because you eliminate the possibility of the battery ever giving unsatisfactory service due to the low gravity of the electrolyte. Do you know what happens as a result of low gravity?

Leak-Proof Feature in the COOPER Battery The leak-proof post construction in the COOPER Battery, which pre- vents syphoning (leaking), is one of the five reasons why your next battery should be a COOPER. The best reason why you should buy a COOPER Battery, however, is because of the guarantee--'"to render the longest length of service per dollar."
