ing currency on the basis of 81.29

Expert Marksman
Gives "G'3" Tires
'Final Inspection
One of the Important phases of
producing the new Goodyear 'a-3"
tire Is the final factory inspection!
according to O O. Furnas, local Good
year dealer.
"Men with keen eyes look for the
tiniest flaw," says Mr. Furnaa "and
no tire la permitted to leave the
factory unless It la perfect In every
detail.
"An Interesting example of the type
of man who Inspects the new 'Q-V
tires, la Merle laraelton. of Akron,
Ohio. In a recent rifle match of na
tional lute rent, conducted In Akron,
Israclson's keen eyes and ateady
nerves won for him the title of small
bore champion; the Litchfield trophy,
the Ooodyear trophy, three medals
and a place on two International
teams.
'Naturally,' says Mr. Charlls Fur
nas, "all G-S Inspectora are not ex
pert riflemen, but every one of there
is selected for the excellency of his
vision and mental alertness. They
must not permit any accidental flaw
In the production to escape them. '
"Many of the small imperfections
for which tires art rejected by the
Inspectors would never be detected by
an untrained observer. But the rigid
policy of Inspection of the Goodyear
factories makes It unnecessary for the
consumer to sort over a large group
of tires In order to find a perfect
product.
"On the contrary, the Imperfect tlr
Is never permitted to reach the deal
er's establishment. If the defect la
detectable by human Ingenuity,' Mr.
Furnas says. ' 'IttgHsTXa
