Note: This is the 9th of a series of discus-

Thomas-Nunn, Troop Scribe No. 32.
What is a Boy Scout’s duty to his
America? What does he owe to the
land which gives him free education,
things to enjoy and do and also the
chance to be what he wants to be?
To obey her laws? Yes. To respect
her institutions? Yes—but more, to as
willingly live for America as thousands
upon thousands of patriots have been
eager to die for America. To DIE for
one’s country calls for supreme cour-
age—but to LIVE aright, to work, to

Tough, live rubber specially compounded
for long, slow wear. Scientifically designed
non-skid gives greater traction and safe,
quiet performance.

% MILLIONS ?
The Firestone patented Gum-Dipping proc-
ess transforms the cotton cords into a strong,
tough, sinewy unit. Liquid rubber penetrates
every cord and coats every fiber, guarding
against internal friction and heat, greatly
increasing the strength of the cord body, and
giving longer tire life.

This is a patented construction, and the two
extra cord plies are so placed that you get
56% stronger bond between tread and cord
body, and tests show 26% greater protection
against punctures and blowouts. It sets a
new standard for tire performance on high
speed cars.

Firestone tires appeal to the thrifty. They give
Extra Values at the lowest prices ever known.
Firestone do not manufacture tires under special
brand names for mail order houses and others to distribute.
Special brand tires are made without the manufacturer’s
name. They are sold ■without his guarantee or responsi-
bility for service.
You take no chances on Firestone tires. They are
silent, safe, long-wearing — and each tire bears the Fire-
stone name, which is a guarantee of satisfactory service. .
Firestone’s greater economies in buying, manufac-
turing, and distributing make possible these greater values
and lower prices.
Stop at our store today. See sections cut from Fire-
stone tires — special brand mail order tires and others.
Take these sections in your own hands — compare Quality
and Construction. Then you, too, will know why —"Fire-
stone is the tire that taught thrift to millions^9

If you’ll give us sufficient notice, we’ll try to have
your telephone connected on or before the day
you move.
And here’s a suggestion . . . before the rush of
moving begins, take time to plan for telephone
service that will fit changed conditions. Perhaps
you will need an extension telephone in bedroom
or kitchen ... an individual line... an extra direc-
tory listing... or other improvements in the kind
of telephone service you are now using.
It’s a good idea to plan such changes in advance.
We’ll be glad to help you. Just call the business office.

Mrs. Robert Jackson and son will
leave tomorrow (Saturday) for Jack-
son, Tenn., where she will visit her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Cook. Mrs.
Jackson’s address for the next three
produce, to help, to save, to obey the
nation’s law, to be a real Scout day
after day in little things calls for as
much courage spread over longer time I
—but that is real citizenship and do-
ing one’s duty to his country.
Indeed, the Scout Movement has
failed to bear fruit with the individual
Scout unless he desires to be the citi-
zen who bears his full part in the
community life. Not only to obey
laws, register, honestly pay taxes and
his other duties, but also to carry his
share according to his talents and
training.
Let us try to visualize our duty to
our country and then let us try to
measure up to it—then we can say that
we are a True Scout, included in which
or four weeks will be Little Orchard
Farm, Trenton Road, Jackson, Tenn.
