MANAGER OF STAR

In the February 2(1 Issue of tho
paper published by the Dig Kour mov
ing picture corporation under the
head of "Live Publicity on the Itattlo
Cry of Peace" a whole pane Is devot
ed to the splendid way In which tho
Star theater of this city advertised
that film when It has showed hero
the first time.
The half psge ad the aauie as It
appeared In this paper Is reproduced
and pictures of the theatre and a
Medferd street car with the liminer
for the "Uattln Cry of Peace" thereon
appear lu the write-up. Manager

Thoso agents nnd growers will be
so selected that all tho principal fruit
districts of tho northwest will bo rep
resented. In addition there will bo n
socallod passive membership, which
for the sum of f 5 will allow any sun.
plelous grower to attend all the meet
ings of tho directors, and know for
himself Just what Is being done.
"For five dollars" sold the speaker .
"ouyono can cuss all he wants to " I
The Idea Is that suspicion has be-1
co mo to firmly Imbedded In tho over-,
age fruit grower's consciousness that
there must bo a modluni for Its ellm
(nation through froo expression and
opporuntty to soouro all the facts, j
Tho now organization does not
protend to solvo nil tho probloms of
the bustuoss, nor ba necessarily In Its .
final form, but It Is what oxports In .
the department of agriculture know

they now nre with only what machin
ery thoro Is now on hand.
Tho agency will lake as mombors
tho various fruit growers organiza

Produce association, nnd these organ
isations will pay the oxpenses of the
agency, tho mninborshlp feo being

Join by payment of the same feo, but ;
they can through thuln organizations

out the payment of a penny.

lONSIDER now tho means by which many Tires
nave been given maximum iraciion, i.e.. ay
means of a "sandnanery" texture in tho Rubber
of their Anti-Skid Treads.
Every time the Brakes are put on, to make such Tires
grip the road, tho relatively hard, unyielding, and compar
atively brittle, texture of tne Rubber in their Treads causes
these Treads to grind away on the pavement, to WEAR
OUT fast at the point of contact
The sudden efficiency of their grinding-Traction also
tuprs so sharply on the Rubber Adhesive between tho
layers of Fabric in Tire as to separate these layers.
There is little "give" to tnem just as there is littlo
"slide" to them.
So, they gain Traction at the expense of Mileage.
Naturally such Tires require a great BULK of such
Rubber in order to deliver reasonable Mileage before worn
out
And, therein they differ radically from GOODRICH
"Barefoot" Tires.
Because, the Safety-Tread on Goodrich Tires is mado
of "Barefoot-Rubber," a new, and exclusive compound
which discards unnecessary whitish "frictional" ingredi
ents that are heaviest and inert, as proved by their
lighter weight

ERE is how it acts in Automobiling,
When the weight of the Car bears on
this climrincr "Barefoot-Rubber" Tread, nml
the power is annlied to co ahead or reverse, tho wondorfnl
stretch in tho ''Barefoot" Rubber Sole (or Tread) of tho
Goodrich Tire acts as a sort of Lubricant between tho
fabric Structure of tho Tire and the Road.
Then, the -Banoof-Rubber "Toes," of the Goodrich
Safety-Tread Tire, CLING to tho pavement (instead of
grinding against it), in such manner as your Bare Foot
would cli ng to a slippery surface without Grind, and so,
with the minimum of Frictional Heat or Wear for maxi
mum Traction.
r, rSS$rh ' 'Barefoot-Rubber" is now mado into Goodnch
FABRIC Tires, -Goodrich Silvertown Cord Tires, Good
rich Inner Tubes, Goodrich Truck Tires, Goodrich Motor
Cycle, and Bicycle, Tires, as well a3 into Goodrich Rub
ler Boots, Over-Shoes, Soles and Heels.
Get a Sliver of it from your nearest Goodrich Branch,
or Dealer. Stretch it thousands of times, but break it you
can't
That's the Stuff that GOODRICH Black-Tread Tires
are made of.
