WHY YOU SHOULD ENLIST
NOV IN THIS GREAT WAR
36,100 people were killed in traffic accidents in

your family in the car? Would you be among the
"lucky ones" who came out alive? Don't take that
awful chance.
FREE INSPECTION
Here's what we do for your protection :
1. Inspect your tires for signs of failure.
2. Remove puncturing objects that might cause
serious trouble.
3. Check air pressure of all tires including spare.
