Its durability, efficiency, service and low "upkeep" cost, has placed it in a class entirely by itself for 74 years, but unlike the Cadillac automobile it costs less than 98 per cent of all the "Just as good" insurance in other companies. I am in position to prove this assertion to your satisfaction. If yon could buy a Cadillac car at the same price and be guaranteed the same up keep cost as for a "just as good" car do you think you would consider the "Just as good"? ? SAM M.
