TOURIST RELATES
Mrs. Ingram Watkins of Savannah,
who arrived in MPdfoid by train
this morning, related several inci
dents cf interest which occurred on
her trip to China and Japan, from
which she is Just returning, previous
to her departure for Crate- lake.
The traveler told of a motor trip
to the wall of China which proved
so unusual that she told some other
American tourists, who decided they
wculd follow the same route the next
lay.
The second group did not meet with
the success of the first, for while
they were riding along serenely, their
car was ' stopped by bandits, every
thing of value they had was taken,
and the chauffeur was shot through
the leg.
Mrs. Watkins and her friend were
on a train from Shanghai to Nan
king. Forty-two bullet holes could
be counted by them In t their com
partment.

there ask youirseli?:
Why buy a sveond choice tirc9 when first -choice costs no more?
Wouldn't it be a thrill to start out on that
Labor Day drive with a new set of hand
some, safe, trouble-free Goodyears on
your wheels?
Wouldn't it be a comfort to know you
, are going into the fall and winter motoring
season with the best tire equipment on
your car that money can buy?
Of course it would! Why don't
you do it? You can afford it
with prices as low as these listed
here, mileage is selling cheaper
now than ever before. i
When you buy Goodyears
whether the famous All-Weather
Tread or the popular sturdy
Pathfinder you're buying the
first-choice tires of the world.
If you have any doubt about
ibis, just remember that for U
years it has been a fact that
f
.11 in '
"More people ride on Goodyear Tires than
on any other kind!"
Again, a great and unbiased public insti
tution recently completed a nation-wide
survey, asking American car owners
"What tire is bestt"
The vote, uninfluenced in any way, shows
a preference for Goodyears nearly 2J4 times
that for the second tire, and five
times the average preference for
all other makes.
It takes a great tire an out
standing tire td win public
approval in this decisive fashion;
it takes the kind of a tire you
would like to own. ,
You can have that tire, at no extra
price, if you'll guide your buying
with the simpfe question: "Why
buy a second-choice tire, when
first-choice costs no more?"
