Because—as any comparison shows—the dollar difference between this brawny beauty and the well-known smaller cars is now virtually-erased. So if you’ve been holding back* thinking a Buick was out of reach—let yourself go. You can afford • a Buick if you can afford any new car—and the price we show here proves it.' Buiek Sales Are Soaring To New Best-Seller Highs That’s a major reason for the phenomenal success of Buick today. So much so, that production and sales are hitting new peaks to move Buick more firmly into the tight circle of America’s best sellers. And a companion reason for this soaring popularity is. Buick’s full line Of cars to give you a choice in any price class — the bedrock-priced SPECIAL, the high-powered CENTURY, the extra-roomy SUPER, and the custom-built ROADMASTER. But pure and simple, it’s all the automobile you get for your money that’s winning so many new owners to Buick. It’s the extra pride you feel, the extra room you enjoy, the extra comfort you get, the extra safety you sense — from Buick styling, Buick size, Buick ride-engineering, Buick solidity of structure. 2-door, 6-passenger Buick SPECIAL Sedan, Model 48, illustrated. Optional equipment, accessories, state and local taxes, if any, additional. Prices may vary slightly in adjoining communities. Even the factory-installed extras you may wont ore bargains, such as> Heater & Defroster-$I1.70; Radio & Anlenna-$M.SO. I It’s the extra lift and snap and ginger you get from Buick high-compression V8 power —and the fun and thrill of bossing such eager might. As we said—if you can afford any new car, you can afford a Buick—even with the spectacular performance of Variable Pitch Dynaflowf at modest extra cost. So why settle for anything less than a Buick? '* Drop in on us, take the wheel, press that pedal, and see for yourself what a whale of an automobile —and a whale of a buy—today’s Buick really is. ■fDynaflow Drift is standard on Roadmasler, optional at extra Cost on other Series DID YOU KNOW.that the Buick SPECIAL Is priced below my other car of 168 horsepower and 122nch wheelbase? -that the Buick SPECIAL is priced below iome models of the three erell-known smaller cars? -♦hot the Buick SPECIAL gives you more pounds ofV automobile than any other car at its low price?

In the seventeenth century it had advanced to twenty-five years. Through the years there has been a steady increase until, today, the life expectancy ia sixty-three years for men and sixty-six for women. Authorities agree that the most productive years of life lie between the ages of forty and sixty. Medicine and the allied sciences have thus been indirectly responsible for all progress.
