Actual records of the directors who conduct more than eight out of ten Minneapolis funerals show that prices range from less than $100 to more than $500. The price is a matter of your own choice. None of the funeral directors listed below make a practice of advertising their lowest cost funerals any more than their highest. They believe that everyone should feel perfect free to come to any reliable, responsible director and select the kind of service wanted. They do not believe in offering inexpensive services as "bargains" nor in making misleading statements that such services are worth two or three times the price asked.

Obviouslyi this is as untrue in funeral services as in any other purchase that is made. So that Minneapolis people may know we print herewith a two year summary of "complete funerals" conducted by 26 reliable, well established funeral directors.

Uinn. funeral Directors Ann larly good time to buy a Packard, for today's Packards are the finest of a long line of fine cars. Take your present car to a Packard dealer. Find out how much you can gef for it on, say, a Packard Standard Eight. Learn how easy it is to pay the balance.

Then study the car itself. The Standard Eight has made more friends for Packard than any other model. It combines big car comfort with big car safety. It combines simplicity of design with low service costs. It has Packard's traditional ageless lines lines that make the car young in appearance when it is old in miles.

And remember this: Your Packard Standard Eight will last for years to come --years that make your Packard a wiser investment than ever. Probably you've often wished for a Packard. Perhaps several times you've almost bought one. But somehow you've felt you'd wait for better times. A better time to buy a Packard will probably never come.

Why? For the same reason that a better time may never come to buy sound real estate or seasoned securities. Today's motor cars are priced to give you more for your money than ever be fore. But there is still another factor in your favor. When buying turns, allowances on used cars will drop materially. Past experience bears this out.

It will take a much greater cash outlay to buy a new car than it does today. This year two and a half million cars will wear out. Only a million and a quarter new cars will take the road. This means that before long more than a million people must buy new cars or walk. Buying must turn.

Before it turns is the time to buy your car.
