Built to deliver exceptional mileage at exceedingly low cost, Goodyear Tires, of the 30 x 3«, 30 x 3Vi* and 31 x 4-inch sizes, save inconvenience, disappointment and money. Their value results from the appli cation of Goodyear experience, expertness and care to their manu facture in the world’s largest tire factory devoted to these sizes If you own a Ford, Chevrolet, Port, Maxwell or other car taking these sizes, go to your nearest Service Station for Goodyear Tires—for the real worth and endurance that Good- year builds into them. *2152 Goodyear Heavy Touruc Tube* cox tw more than the price you are aekeJ to pay for tube« of k«i mark —why rUk coedy caring• when luch aura protec tion la available t 30K>^aUa $¿450 laaferwrao/ kaa WILLIAMS Garage and Cyclery 308 South Sixth Street ______ WINETROUT THE TILMTOH MAN 402-401 ZT. «TH ------------------------------- - ------ - — —--- ---- r- anil dark r»*l -flu* gift*» of p»*iilf<*ii< miperur* A glance rvvciiH a statm *<.-Hiding dimly against tin* dark hang Ings; opi*»slt« n ’dad railing front Ing the I hco c<»v«*red manger; iwiiht . the altar on which the wlu* men laid their frankliH’onw» and tnyrrli Cinsi- tit Ini nd, two figures kneel silently hr ‘fore the star, where million* of H um slim pilgrim* have knelt with <lr<>|> ping tenni.
