NOW IS THE TIME. (By Governor Henry J. Allen of Kansas.) Economize when others are spending and you will be able to spend when others are compelled to economize. Now is the time to save, for most of the people are spending money.

Fortunate is the person who saves now. He will have money to spend at a time when others are forced to It is not difficult to live economically when you have to do so. When times are hard you live inexpensively because there is nothing else you can do. Try to look ahead a little and visualize what you will be doing in case hard times do come. Save money now and you will have nothing to regret later on.

There never was a better time in the world to save money than the present. Do it now. The Ford car has become, by sheer virtue of its practical merits. a real business utility.
