e _ ACar in the Garage COSTS as much as a Car-on-the-Road,
] but it pays no dividends, on the Investment, sc long as it STAYS n
the Garage.
The VALUE of the Car,—to its Owner,—narrows down, in the ultimate,
to the precise number of Howrs he USES that Car, yeariy. .
If a $2,000 Car be owned fer, zay, 4 years (thon eold for §600.) there has
been $1,400 of Car-Value absorbed by the Owner,—cqual 10, say, $350. per year.
If then, that Car be USED 913 Hours in the vear, it would cost him but 38
. CENTS per Hour, for Car-Use. ;
. But,—if he used it only ALR thet number of Hovis, yearly, the Car would
cost him 100% MORE for every Hour he used it. :
2 How MUCH he uses 2t will depend,—to a conzicrable crtent,—upon the
PRICE of TIRES and GASOLENE, _.
4 This was oneof the reasons why we (Jan. 81st, 1015) inangurated the Goodrich |
FAIR-LIST’ ? %’ropagamla agarinst High-prices, and Padded-Price-Lists, on Tires.
Itis a turther‘l'eu.f;(m_why we NOW keep our own Goodrich Prices DOWN ,
to the very moderate ‘‘Fair-List’’ figurcs here quoted.
e o ° :
ETTER Falrie Tires are NOT made, and ecannot be made,—at ANY
price,—than are produced by The B. . Goodrich Co.
A 15%, to bO%, higher price could well be justified for these
same Tires, by fair comparison with other Tires sold at 157% to 50% higher prices.
| Will you help your own interests (present and futuie), by further expanding
the Sale of that Tire which demonstrates its Intention; through LOWERING the
Cost of its Tires to you, with every INCREASE in its \’_(flm}u:‘.{ ”
Will you thus endorse, and support, the Goodricl Policy which automatic
ally PREVENTS OTHER Makers from fereing UP the Market on Tires?
Compare (J_oodrich Fz}u‘-lm;t prices, here quoted. L
Bear in mind that NO Fabrie Tires,—at ANY price,—are “better,”’—no
‘House more Fair, and LIBERAL, on proper Adjustments.

}MAN WHIPS DAUGHTER
| IS SHOT BY HIS SON
Amnniston, July 15.—Surgeons at St.
Luke’s hospital in this city, have very
little nope for the recovery of J. R.
Walton, who was interned there Tues
day night on his arrival from Heflin,
where he had been shot by a son,
aged 16, who he says, resented his
chastising one of his daughters.
According to Mr. Walton’s story,
the children disobeyed him in keep
ing a noise about the hous€, as a re
sult of which he administered pun
ishment to one of the daughters.
This was resented by the elder son,
who secured a revolver and fired twice
at his tather, the bullet taking effect
in the abdomen.
TRAIN KILLS THREE IN AUTO
AND SPARES FOUR OTHERS
Reading, Pa., July li3.—Three per
sons wore killed and four others nar
rowly cscaped instant death when an
automobile in which they were riding
was strack by a westbound Reading ex
press ot Hancock station.
Bodizs of the dead were thrown
30 or 0 feet up in the air.
Eye-witnesses declare that the bod
ies of the dead men were hurled as
high as a telegraph pole, and the;body
of one was thrown agzinst the mailbag
bracket with such force that the iron
was badly bent.
CAN THE FRUITS AND
VEGETABLES PROPERLY
Parties desiring directions on the
selection, preparation, and canning of
fruits and vegetables may secure them
by request. It is also the purpose of
this department to give aid to any who
may call upon it during the canning
season. The government book of di
rections cap hardly be heaten, for each
recipe has been thorovghly tried and
tested. !

RECRUITS WANTED 4
FOR NATIONAL GUARD
‘Washington, July, 12. Immediate or
ganization of an extensive national
guard service was authorized teday
by the war department to bring regi
ments on border duty up to full war
strength of about 160,000 men. With
nearly 50,000 regulars on border duty,
the zovernment would have 210,000
men nr more engaged in protecting the
line. :
Three officers will be assigned to the
recruiting service for each regiment
ordered to the front. Each separate
‘battalion, company, battery or o,the_r
unitl will have one officer. The adju
tant .seneral of the respective states
will sapply the names of officers for
this Juty. :
Recruiting has been made necessary
by the fact.that all unfit men and
those with dependants to support are
to be Qiccharged from the guard regi
ments as rapidly as possible. While
the work of filling the gaps was in
progiess, however, it was determine@
to go a step further and attempt to
fill the regiments -up to full war

GOLD DIGGING GOES )
I RIGHT ON IN GEORGIA
Atlanta, July 14.—According to re
ports received at the state capitol,
Georgiaiis are still digging gold in
this state. It may be a surprise to
some Cieorgians to know that last
year more than $35,000 worth of
gold was extracted from the Georgia
‘mines. This was a decrease in the
‘amount usually secured. :
Georgia’s gold producing counties
are zll in north Georgia. = Lumpkin,
‘the total value of whose gold for last:
year was $7,288, produced more of
the yellow metal than any other one
county in the state.
To protect a Swiss railroad from fre
queit avalanches numerous snow re
taining walls have been built on a
mountain side at points from which the
slides start, to hold the snow until it
melts.
