appointment as distributors of the Auburn Beauty-SIX. At
the same time we announce the new 1922 Auburn model.
Throughout twenty-one years Auburn cars have been giving their
owners notable satisfaction. Few automobiles, in fact, have such
a long line of worthy predecessors. The new 1922 model is the
summary of all this experience it represents the realization, in
even fuller measure, of those ideals which have always set Auburn
apart in the esteem of its owners.
You will realize the undeniable beauty of this 1922 Auburn the
moment you see it. And when you take the wheel, you will gain a
new regard for the stamina which you truly FEEL in this car's
performance.
As the miles slip by. you are pleasantly conscious that your pas
sengers, as well as yourself, are thoroughly comfortable. Road
shocks are smoothed out and abrupt curves taken with a minimum
of side sway. There is complete confidence in the car's perform
ance complete relaxation for ALL occupants of the car. And thus
has "restful riding" become a reality in a motor car.

The Romantic Growth of a Gigantic Business
PrfsTlHE story of the evolution of the American Stores Co. reads like a tale of fiction. When, more than a third
I I of a century ago, a humble little grocery store was opened in Philadelphia, there were hundreds of others
mSKB more or less like it, but this one differed in the aims and policies of its proprietors to give the public
iHtfiirT
111.- t -C il.. I l . iU. 1 "
lliu iiiirai oi Lilt uesi 1UI iiiu icaoi.
The public was quick to appreciate these grocers' honest efforts and gradually other stores were opened in
different parts of the city. As the years went on, the business expanded, for other towns and cities wanted the
new type of grocery store, where one could obtain high quality merchandise at money-saving prices.
Never once have we deviated from our policy of "good goods at low prices," and today our hundreds upon
hundreds of Stores and Meat Markets cover the four States of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and Mary
land a' mighty bulwark between our customers and unscrupulous food profiteers.
Our present position as supreme leader in the retail grocery and meat field is due to our unswerv
ing policy of giving the public "the squarest kind of a square deal." Today, more than ever before, it
pays tode al at the Asco Stores, tvherc Quality counts and yotir money goes the farthest.
