We are planning and work will

Won't it be wonderful to have a
new church?
Singing was fine Sunday night
WHO is it that's first to spot —
and quickest to go for — a
really fresh new fashion idea
when it comes along?
The ladies, of course!
And who is it that, according to
careful surveys, put Buick far
ahead of its price class and up
among the lowest-priced three
when they name the car of their
innermost choice?
The fair sex — but naturally! **>
A-nd who is it, when you come
right down to it, that gets the most
practical use from enough stir-
ring Fireball power to handle the
day's travel-jobs without strain
and struggle?
Who relishes most the restful
ease of wide, cushiony seats, and
the blissful gentleness of all-coil
springs that make rough roads
well-mannered and good roads
glass-smooth?
Who goes for a car big enough to
be company-minded — yet light
Tuna In HENRY ]. TAYLOR, ffcw N.fwork, Mondayt and Friday
and easy enough in handling to
pft'rk without a tussle, and flit
shadow-light through market-
hour traffic?
Who, good friends, has the fam-
ily's smartest eye-for-a-buy — the
shrewdest size-up of what's really,
good?
No one but the Lady of the
Household!
So we toss out this thought to you
menfolks:
Chances are that you've been
hankering for the kind of thrill
that lurks in this great-hearted,
great-powered beauty.

You'd sort of like to get your
hands on a car as big and mighty
as this —if you thought the better
half could be sold on it.
Take our tip — she's already sold.
Favored as it is by red-blooded
males, no Buick we've ever,
offered has won the smart sex
quite like this one.
So why not pull a pleasant sur-
prise some evening soon? Just
come home and say, "Well, I
placed an order for a Buick to-
day. They're taking 'em with or;
without a car to trade."
Then watch her fall all over your
neck!
