NO OTHER MATTRESS IS LIKE IÎ NO OTHER MATTRESS A FIVE FOOT BATT OF SELECTED VIRGIN COTTON COMPRESSED INTO A “GIANT PILLOW FOR YOUR BODY" Sealy Holds the Magic of Transformation from a giant five foot batt of live, pure staple cotton into a buoyant Sealy "Air-Woven” Tuftless mattress. All the fleecy resilience of virgin cotton is retained in the Sealy Tuftless—making it luxuriously soft to conform to the body, yet firm enough to give proper support. "Air- Woven” comfort filling is found only in the Sealy Tuftless—which others have tried to imitate without success—for Sealy alone has per fected through more than 60 years of experience the way to make "The Giant Pillow for Your Body". Police to Check Speed Abusers Motorists who exceed the 35- mile wartime speed, the maxi mum allowed under OPA mileage rationing regulations, will be “clocked” by the Oregon State Police in a program to prevent tire abuse worked out in coopera tion with the district OPA, Rich ard G. Montgomery, director, an nounced last week. Under an agreement with Su perintendent of Police Char’.es P. Pray, state enforcement officers will immediately begin “clocking” speeding motorists and report de tails of the violations to the state police headquarters at Salem. There names of registered own ers will be verified and violators reported to the OPA district of fice in Portland for hearing and appropriate action by local war price and rationing boards. THREE GENERATIONS OF TESTIMONY Many an owner has EXPERTS SELECT RIGHT TYPE OF COTTON Only in certain dis tricts of Texas is it possible to produce the springy, pure staple cotton neces sary for the Sealy Tuftless. Ordinary cotton does not have the special resil ience and strength demanded for the exclusive Sealy "Air-Woven” process. This careful selection of cotton by Sealy experts is a highly important fac tor in bringing to you the revitalizing •nd long-lasting comfort of the Sealy Tuftless mattress. jv ClkirC 1 fitti slept on the same Sealy Tuftiess for over 30 years—as proved by letters we have on file from all over the United States. Buying the Sealy Tuft iess has become a family tradition. The experiences of the countless thousands who have purchased this truly fine mattress justify the world wide prestige of Sealy. All these ex periences of satisfied owners assure that you are getting the outstanding comfort value when you buy this same Sealy Tuftless mattress today. Sleeping on a Sealy is like dpphitto nn zz eland Program Important “This enforcement program is extremely important to rubber conservation,” Montgomery de clared, “for speeding constitutes a serious abuse of tires. Drivers generally are observing the 35- mi’.e rule, but with the advent of good weather speeding has in creased. Despite recently published statements giving optimistic view of the future rubber situation, our tire stocks in this area and on the entire west coast are seriously low, with no early prospects of improvement. With good news com- • ing in from the fighting fronts, our efforts should be redoubled, not slackened.” For some months past, ration boards have been revoking some or all of mileage coupons from motorists convicted in municipal court of exceeding the 35-mile speed rule, Montgomery stated.
