Campbell, able astronomer, calls our earth, with ita many fine real estate corners,’“just an insignificant point in the universe of countless spheres,’’ and adds it would be un thinkable that our worid is the only planet that supports life. Few do assume it, who know that life can exist wherever oxygen and water exist, and that the spectro scope shows oxygen and- hydrogen throughout the universe. We cannot see life on other planets, even on the moon, object nearest to us; nothing smaller than a big sky scraper would be visible through a modern telescope. But men np longer believe only what they see.- They can not see thd radio, working through the ether, but. they believe that ,it works.

W HEN you are ready to trade in your present car for a new car, you naturally want full value for your pres ent car. But most of all you want full new car value. J • » 1 It will therefore pay you to considen varying^rradSMh allowance offers"in”the light of these basic facts: I Your present car has only one funda mental basis of value: i.e., what the dealer who accepts it in trade can get for it in the used car market 2 Your present car has' seemingly different values because competitive dealers are bidding to sell you a new car. 3 The largest allowance offered is not necessarily the best deal for you. Sometimes it is; sometimes it is not 4 An excessive allowance may mean that you are paying an excessive price for the new car in comparison with its real value. 5 First judge the merits of the new car in comparisorywith its price, includ- • . # . # ing all delivery * arid finance charges. Then weigh any difference in allowance offered wyour present car. ^ Remember that you are making a purchase—not a safe: You are buy ing a new car and simply using your present car as a credit against the new car’s purchase price.
