Though we can't give you the figure just yet, we can tell you this: the low, low price of the Falcon will help prove to you that it's the savingest car, right from the start! What's more, the main body unders tincture is heavily zinc-coated to protect it against corrosion through the years. Front fenders are bolted on for easier, more economical servicing. Insurance will probably cost you less. And Falcon service will be available everywhere, using standard American tools.

We've just been able to scratch the surface of the Falcon news here. Come in. Bring all your questions. But make it soon. We have many orders already.

CARD OF THANKS The family of the late Peter tScatera, of Duryea, are most grateful to all friends and neighbors who were so kand tluring their recent bereavement, also for the floral trib- i Utes, mass cards and cars loan ed. JOHN B.

BURNS FUNERAL HOME 18 Kennedy Street Pittston Dial OL 4-7441 LET'S TALK AI0UT STYLING FIRSTI You're going to be amazed by the Falcon's beauty. It has a low, sleek, European flair in new, beautifully proportioned style. It has safe, "wide open" visibility all around. Interior styling is fresh and new, with smart looking, durable upholstery. In a nutshell, the Falcon is Ford's way of proving that a true economy car doesn't need to look, ride or feel like one.

SO LET'S TALK AIOUT THAT! The Falcon uses the latest type of single-unit construction (like the fabulous Ford Thunderbird). This adds extra inches everywhere inside and it makes the car one solid, silent, integrated structure. Along with its all-new size there are lots of other things, like extra-big brakes and light-finger steering, that make the Falcon a delight to drive. And the Falcon is so maneuverable, it makes driving in city traffic a cinch! LET'S TALK AIOUT THE FALCON'S PERFORMANCE! The all-new engine is up front, where exhaustive crash tests, skid tests and handling tests prove it should be, for safety and stability. It has six cylinders is of the world's most modern design yet it's built on full-proven principles.

It will deliver up to 30 miles per gallon on regular gas, only needs oil changes every 4,000 miles. The engine is also water cooled, which permits use of a water-type heater that's safer and never robs you of gas mileage! Unlike many cars of its size, the Falcon's available with automatic drive, too. AND NOW WE'VE SIMPLY GOT TO nil YOU AIOUT THE FALCON'S FAIUL0US EXPERIENCE RUNI It tops off a rugged 3-year, test program. A fleet of Falcons is now traveling over every numbered U. S.

highway in the country. It's from the drivers' logs on this run that we got the "30-miles-to-a-gallon" mileage figure. Some of the Falcons are driving around-the-clock and new records are rolling in every day. i grandchildren. I The funeral will be held on Wednesday at 2 p.
