Because of the Millions of Ford Cars iii Daily 0PERATI0N= THE UNIVERSAL CAR the Ford Motor Company will extend the giving of service to owners of Ford cars by selling the genuine Ford Parts to all reliable garages throughout the country, when such garages pledge the prompt and efficient giv ing of service-the standard Ford service-to owners of Ford cars. Up to this time, the Ford Motor Company has confined the sale of genuine Ford Parts exclusively to the authorized Ford Dealers. Therefore, many garages throughout the country, while giving service to Ford cars, use duplicate or imitation parts, not made by the Ford Motor Company, although charging the Ford owner the same price as if the genuine Ford Parts had been used. Garages that use genuine Ford Parts are Yonee Motor Company, Lyon Brothers and Tompkins. When Ford cars are repaired at these garages none but genuine Ford Parts are used.
