"Three Point Traction" You Get It In-

If you

Low-Priced
Tire, look
at
Goodyear
PATHFINDERS
v "Three-Point Traction" is mighty important 1 It's
ono of tho big; reaons why "More peoplo ride on Good
years than any other tires."
Here's what "Three-Point Traction" means:
(1) Stopping: and starting traction because Of the
sharp-edge diamonds DOWN THE CENTER instead
of sliok "sled-runner'? ribs that only slip, slide and
spin in mud. . '
(2) CUEVE TRACTION becauso of the" All-'
Weather diamonds on tho edges that GRIP when your
tires shift sidewayS on turns. 1
(3) RUT TRACTION because those sanra dia
monds extend far up both side walls.
Think, beforeyou buy tires, how often you need
this "Three-Point Tracftjan." You've noticed how
other tires slip, skid, don't hold the road like the fa
mous All-Weather. Now you know why. Tho All
Weather Tread easily adds DOLLARS OF SAFETY
to a tire yet it etts you nothing extra,. ,
There's a Goodyear Quality Tube for evofy size,
type and priced Goodyear Tire. For best service
on Gcodyears be sure to use Goodyr Tubes.
