CHARLES M. SCHWAB is credited with say
ing: "Give me the men and I can make or
sell anything." It's Service that we have to sell.
So we. started out by getting around us the MEN
that could make that Service mean something.
Men who know, their business, men who can
show you that they know. Men who are far
sighted enough to make an inexpensive repair
when it would be just as easy to sell a new bat
tery. Men who know that only by doing these
things can they hope to win and hold the .confi
dence 'of every car owner in town.
And these men are backed up by the me
chanical equipment that makes their work a
" pleasure to them. This, too, means much to you
as a car owner. It means minimum time where
a repair is needed and a grade of workmanship
otherwise impossible.
And-it is a pleasure, too, in this business of
ours, to be able to look our friends square in the
eye rind recommend the Philadelphia Diamond
Grid Battery, Guaranteed for Two Years, by

by officials of the Hureau of Public

from direct levies and other sources
of state revenue and county Issues are
estimated to amount to $21)8,200,000.
The Chicago meeting will bring to
gether from all parts of the country
the men who will supervise the ex

their, problems and an accurate estl
m:ile as to the future. j3
The convention promises to be one
of ihe greatest in point of attendance jjrs
and In results ever held in the history ps
of the good roads movement. The!
governors of the several states and ;
territories of this country and Canuuu S5
as well a. the mayors of two thousand
American and Canadian . cities have S
been asked to appoint official dele- I ;
gates to the meeting. In some Instan
ces governors and mayors will head
their delegations In person. Seven
thousand road and street contractors
and thousands of army, automotive
and chemical engineers, agriculturists,
editors, bunkers, motorists and large
users of trucks, as well as officials of
boards of trade, chambers of com
merce and other organlatlons lntezr
ested In road and street Improvement,
have been Invited to attend.
Each session of the congress, as
well as the show, will be held at the
Chicagp Coliseum and will be open to
the general public. The program
now being arranged, will cover every
vital subject related to highways and
their use. The prepared papers and
discussions will deal with all points of
view.
Everywhere among road-builders
the outlook for unprecedented activ
ity growing out of the delays that
were due to the heavy cost and the
scarcity of labor and materials during
the war, is considered most promising,
and optimism, as to the future of road
building seems certain to prevail at
the congress.

he continued, are In reality largely a

What Is the
Secret of-Long Life
In a
Tire, Anyhow:
It's the tread and here is the reason :
The tread of your tire is the part that takes all
the wear, soaks up the road shock and keep the
bumps away from the fabric. .
Entirely reasonable then that it should be broad
and thick, isn't it?
That's the idea back of the Super Tread Tire. It's
important and it means a lot more miles to you.
