TIRE COLLEGE IS
NEW IDEA IN THE
WORLD OF MOTORS
Accredited Tire School to Open
Soon for Students of Tire
Efficiency! Advance Made.
Typical of the new conscience that
has developed in American business
principles during the last few years
is the, establishment of schools or
"colleges" by the big tire manufac
turers to instruct students. In. the
proper methods of repairing tires.
Noeffort is lost to inform consumers
of the best methodyof getting the great
est service possible from- the commod
ity. Manufacturers have learned that
this system makes friends ' and friends
create good will, the thing most valued
in business today.. Prominent among
these factories, where this spirit has
taken root. Is the Miller Rubber com
pany: mx Akron. Ohio,' 4.
'A new prof ession that of 1 tire sur
geon is now attracting n attention
throughout the motoring world,0 said
H. F. Freeman, manager of the tire 1e
partment of the Northwest - Au tg com
pany, in speaking of the Miller college,
"and to this new professional man con
ditions are similar to those .confronting

to prove completion
of a prescribed course of study under
competent instructors. , : -
"According, to recognised f authorities
in the tire industry, graduation from an
accredited tire repair school will soon
be an essential preliminary to the young
man entering this interesting and profit
able business. , At the MTUer school stu
dents are given a lecture course, class
room work and practical instruction.
The first step is to familiarise the stu
dent with the principles of tire con
atructloo. With an understanding of
these, it .is far simpler to teach him to
repair the tire. Not one, but all makes
of tires are studied and many types cf
vulcanizing equipment used, and in this
way the student, after leaving the
school. Is not left to grope in the dark
when a tire other than the one in whioh
he has specialised la brought to him for
repair. - s..-v .
"Motorists will be ' Interested la the
fact that the graduate tire surgeon of
today is being taught conservation
methods for preventing tire damge In
advance of trouble. He is made to realise
that telling a customer hew to use his
tires' does not cost him a future Job but
does win him a satisfied customer. The
chief Instructor and his assistants at
the school ' are thoroughly experienced
tire men from both manufacturing and
selling standpoints, consequently the
student is given Instruction In business
principles as well as "tire surgery."
