America’s (greatest Hospitals Rely on
White Ambulances
Three things are vital in ambulance
service. The vehicle must be designed
and built especially for ambulance work.
It must be instantly available and per
manently reliable.
C,White Ambulances are built especially tor this service. Their
superiority is shown in their adoption by America’s foremost
institutions.
CL White Ambulances safeguard the service of municipality and
hospital. They cost a little more to buy but less to operate
and maintain.
CLOnly with a White is it possible to place ambulance equipment
on the same plane of efficiency as the science it serves.
ftThe structural strength, matchless reliability and high grade
equipment of White Ambulances have brought the highest recog
nition in hospital, municipal and military service, in all of which
the White clearly predominates.
