Before long we will be forced, due to repaving of Main St., to route customers through the alley directly west of Main St. This alley is 30 feet in width which will allow easy passage to our rear entrance. The alley may be reached either from Linden Ave. or from Oakwood Ave. No one can look at the slender grace, the smart modern style of the new "400" Salon Body without a feeling of genuine admiration. And the new Twin Ignition motor! Here is the engineering marvel of the year.
