YOUR TIRES STAND BETWEEN
YOUR FAMILY AND HCSTHYaL
This is the day of speed driving,
according to A. E. Goode, local dis-
tributor of Dayton Thorobreds Tires
and Tubes. Inceeased speed means
not only increased stress and strain
on tires, but danger multiplied a
thousand fold. A puncture or blow-
out with a car traveling at a high rate
of speed is more likely than not to
somersault a car and passengers into
a ditch or against a telephone pole.
Every motorist knows this ,und fear
of such disaster increases as the speed
of the car increases. He realizes,
whether he stops to analyze his
thoughts or not, that he has handed
over his life to fabric and rubber
that his tires stand between him and
the hospital perhaps oven worse.
And tin* fact applies with equal force
to all who ride with him. Unlike the
man who does not believe in insurance
because he can't conceive of hiinseli
dying, motorists are beginning to
think more about such things when
buying tires.
Mr. Goode stated further that the
manufacturers of Dayton Thorobred
Tires have been ever mindful ol this
fact and today are offering the motor
ing public the safest tire it is possible
to build. Even after thousands of
miles of fast driving, quick starting
and sudden stopping, on all kinds of
roads, Dayton Thorobreds offer the
maximum of safety due to their In-
built ruggedness and lasting qualities
Mrs Fay Wooley of Houston has
returned to her home, after spending
several days with her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. J. C. Bauguss of Ibis city.
