Portman of Shclton Thursday. Mrs. Morris Grunkmeier and a ~ rj_~c~a~ Bob J In 1916 industrialist Andrew Carnegie looked at a Winton Six and proclaimed it the ul- timate in automotive perfection. For myself, I thought the '36 Ford V-8 took the all time hon- ors when it came out. It just goes to show you how fickle standards are, and how we ex- pect more and more in our auto- mobiles as time goes by. This is just natural, I suppose. Chron- ic dissatisfaction with what we have at hand is the spur that leads us on to further progress. No sooner do we get the latest gadgets and styles added to our cars than we want to change them. This is especially true ot the younger set who transform their old clunks rote sleek, cus- tom cars. We won't be satis- fied till we can sit in the car, dial our destination, and sleep till we get there. QUALITY SERVICE at a FAIR PRICE . . . For all your TIRE NEEDS ....
