Here are a few. FACTS -to think over when you are deciding the kind of car you are going to buy this

spring

Gray Dort cars are extra strongly made-have over- size strength at every point-that is why you seldom see a Gray Dort in a repair garage.

t They stand up to the work, bad roads have no terr- ors for the man who drives a Gray Dort.

The engine is so simple that a mechanic is very sel-

dom needed.

Gray Dori cars have proven by actual test to be most economical on gas and oil. 20 to 25 miles per gallon

is the usual mileage.

Very few cars can equal this and none exceed it.

Gray Dort owners are givena perfect service. There are Gray Dort dealers and service stations at every im- portant point in the Province, add we have a fully equip- ped service car and competent mechanics readyfor any
