Do You Remember?
—When automokiles were called horseless carriages?—When
you bought your top and windshield and oil lamps as extra
equipment?—When passengers climbed into the tonneau from
the rear?--When it was something to brag about to drive 25
miles without a tire change?—When you got most of your
mileage out cf boots ang paiches? Those may have been the
“good old days” but who would want to go back to them. Tires
have more than kept pace with automobiles in the development
of durability and dependahility. With it all tire prices have
gone down and down. Tire mileages are three times what they
were in 1912, And just a faw Years ago you paid two and
three times as much for your tires as you will pay today. To
day | can sell you tires at a price that just a few years age
couldn’t be thought of—a set of long-lived, safe, dependahle angdl!
wonderfully comfortable Goodyear! Balloons. For real tire econg!
my, let me quote you on your size. And if there is any mileag#;{
left in your olg tires I'll/ trade them inm. i
