A Real Cord Tire for Small
Cars at a Popular Price
The new Goodyear Cross-Rib Tread Cord in the 30x 3%
inch clincher type is a tire that the small car owner will
warmly welcome.
It gives him, at a price lower than the net price he is asked
to pay for many “long discount” tires, every advantage of
quality cord tire performance, for it is a quality tire through
and through.
It is made of high-grade long-staple cotton; it embodies the
reliable Goodvear quality of materials; its clean-cut tread
engages the road like a cogwheel.
The scientific distribution of rubber in this tread —the wide
center rib and the semi-flat contour—gives a thick, broad
surface that is exceedingly slow to wear.
The tough tread stock in this tire is carried down the side
walls clear to the bead, making it rut-proof to an extraor
dinary degree.
In every particular it is a representative Goodyear product,
built to safeguard the world-wide Goodyear reputation.
Despite its high quality, and the expertness of its construc
tion, it sells at a price as low or lower than that of tires
which lack its important features.

MR. AND MRS. POLLY
THE AMERICAN LEGIAN HOME
TALENT PLAY WILL BE AN
EVENT OF THE WEEK.
Mr. and Mrs. Polly Tickk will be pre
sented by the American Legion at the
Palace theatre on Friday night at 8
o’clock.
When the curtain rises on the open
ing scene, the audience beholds Fath
er Time and Dame Fashion discussing
the approaching fashions for men and
women. Father Time reads in his rec
ord book of girls in hoop skirts and
’polk bonnets as in the days of long
lago. Dame Fashion sees in her crystal
ball men in ruffled trousers and frills
—all of which will be portrayed in an
ensemble of music composed of the en
tire cast.
The time is 1975. The women, since
getting the ballot have taken the reins
of government and gradually exchang
ed places with the men. The women
now dress in mannish clothes and at
tend to practically all the business,
leaving the men at home to do the
housework, sewing, darning, nursing.
etc. The married men dress in frills
and furbelows, and seem at the begin
ning of the play to have lost all their
masculine habits and to have surren
dered all of their male attire except
their pants, to which they hold with
bull-dog tenacity.
In the first act, the women go off
to the lodge, leaving the men behind.
The neglected husbands get together
for a knitting party. Billy Lawson,
who still retains his masculine dress,
drops in to chide his friends about the
shackles they are wearing and is told
that after he is married he will sur
render his freedom just as they have
done. This brings on an argument dur
ing which Sullivan O’Brien rushes in
with the startling news that the wo
men are planning to send Daisy Ann
Gray to congress so as to pass the an
ti-trouser “bill. After the meeting the
“Emancipated Women” march in arm
ed with brooms and in military styles,
present the mto the men.
The second act opens with an en
semble of music showing a house
cleaning scene in which Tickk is as
sisted by his married friends. While
they are in the midst of the scrubbing,
in comes Billy, announcing that he is
about to start a movement which will
overthrow this petticoat government,
in which plan the men join heartily.
Just as the house-cleaning begins
again, Sullivan O’Brien breaks in, an
nouncing that #*Senator Zella High
brow, the author of the anti-trouser
bill, will speak to the women that eve
ning, whereupon the men devise a
scheme to keep Senator Highbrow
'l'rom the meeting and at the same
time stage their revolution.
The development of this scheme
comes in act three. The voting pre
cinct where the women have planned
to bring about the climax of their
triumph 4s stormed by the men. Then
follows an exciting controversy. The
result of this we cannot disclose, suf
fice it to say it all ends happily.
The grand finale is a beautiful cho
rus ‘featuring the entire cast.—adv.

ALBANY DEFEATS DAWSON

| Finals. May Meet Again.
In the final round of the champion
ship tennis tourney on the Putney
court at Albany C., D. Cocke and ]J.
H. Crouch were defeated by* Dr. ]J.
B. Turner and Walter Williamson.
‘Fhe score was 6-2 .6:1, 9-7. The AL
bany Herald in a write-up of the con
test makes this comment: “In the
imatch yesterday the Dawson team did
‘not show up so well as they did in
‘other matches of the tournament,
Williamson and Turner winning the
first two sets with ease, but having to
put up a hard bhattle for the third and
‘deciding set. It is probable that the
two teams will meet again soon, in an
cxhibition match, the Dawson team
not being satisfied with their show
ing made here.”
