challenge, and Miniature Gar

To quote Mrs. O’Neill:
“The colors live between

In a land that we know best
by sight.
But knowing best isn’t

For colors dance and colors

And colors laugh and colors
cry-
Turn off the light and colors
die,
And they make you feel
every feeling there is
From the grumpiest grump
to the fizzieat fizz.
And you and I know well
Each has a taste and each
has a smell
And each has a wonderful

YOU’LL KNOW WHY SHE
DOESN’T FEEL THE BUMPS...WHEN YOU TEST-DRIVE FORD’S NEW ‘10,000,000 RIDE
The I*3 Ford gives vou a ride ever* bit as smooth as cars cost
ing hundreds more, and tor two reasons: a revolutionars new
suspension system . . . and added roadhußging weight.
It took ten million dollars to develop the new Ford ride. We
designed a revolutionary new suspension system tor the 63
Ford. Where ordmarv suspensions move only up and down In
absorb road shock, the Ford suspension moves backward as
well. In this double-action suspension system coil springs up
front and leal springs in the rear combine to give you firmness
in cornering and a special smoothness over the road.
We added weight, strength and stability. The new Ford is
now actually hundreds 01 pounds more car than anv other car
in its class. This remarkable weight ads antage is in the suspen
sion. frame, and bods And, as vou know, this added weight
means a more stable ride
