A BOOSTER’S PLEDGE
On my word and honor, I here-
by now declare that as long as I
am a resident of this community,
it will be my constant aim to
boost at all times and every time.
I will do what I can for any
public work that has the good of
the community as its object.
I will submit to and abide by
majority rule and will not knock
and howl my head off if things
are not done my way.
I will take no radical or ex-
treme position on any question
before the people, and will have|(
due respect for the opinions of
my friends and neighbors when
their opinions are opposed to
mine. |
I will always say something
good about my town and my peo-
ple, or I’ll keep my bazoo shut
/and “cut it out” like a man.
I realize that if this community
is good enough to live in and
make my money in, it is th«i
proper place to spend my money
in.
Prof. R. P. Felgar and famil
/ho has been spending the sum
ler months in Scottsdale, Pa., re-

When you come right down
to reason, what is there to
"discount” tires —

^pHE next time a friend comes
JL to you all excited about some
wonderful tire bargain—ask him
how much value he ought to get
for each dollar of tire money.
It’s astonishing that any car
owner today should not know all
the tire service he is entitled to.
Nor how to check up between
the economy of par quality on
one hand—and big discounts,
surplus stocks, discontinued lines
and retreads on the other.
For two years U. S. Tire
makers have been telling the
American people all about tires.
They have laid open the tire
business from every angle.
They have always
led the fight for better
tires.
They have consist-
ently maintained quality /zrs*.
standards with certain economy
for the tire buyer.
They have established 92
Factory Branches all over the
country. Perfecting U. S. distri-
bution so that you get a fresh,
live tire every time you buy a
U. S. Tire.
• * *
So when a man once decides
on U. S. Tires he knows what he
is getting in quality—service—
economy.
In support of his own judg-
ment he gets the pledged word
and reputation of the largest
and most successful tire concern
in the world.
A sound reason for the fact
that you see more
U. S. Tires on more
cars than ever this
year.
