made himself popular With the crowd.
Ever willing to do anything for any

Arrival at the E-M-K siding In Detroit
was timed to coincido with the opening
of tho working day. .. The dealers were
welcomed by a delegation of d opart men t
head, led by Hales Manager Paul Rmlth.
A squadron of Flanders "20" touring cars
was drawn up at tho curb, each bearing
a card on which appeared the names of
the deaJers It wiui to carry. - .The names
had been wired ahead and coincided ex
actly with the membership Of the party.
Though there were forty cars In line, the I
dealers were soon seated and whlaked to
the Followcraft club, where breakfast
waa served,
The mornlne of tho first day was spent
at plant three, the largest of the K-M-F
chain, which Is devoted chlotly to the
manufacture of tho Flanders "26."
Starting In tho yard where, ton of ni
irnn.uro staaked. the dealers Worn tavn
In tow by guides who took them through
tno roundry, whoro a reore of furnaces
melt Iron for cylinder castings. Thence
they traveled through the large shop, and
a doxon steam hammers welcomed them
with becoming din. Aisle after aisle of
tho machine shop was then explored,
Btocked wtlh mechanical tools, all auto
matically accurate In character,' and
many of whloh are almost human In In
telligence. Tempering ovens, - assembling
rooms, tost barn, shipping platform the
dealers saw them all in due sequence.
Luncheon was served in the mammoth
engine room.
In the afternoon a specially chartered
uteamcr took the dealers for a ride on
Detroit's beautiful river. Dinner waa
served at the Pontchartrain and a theater
party closed the day. The Pullman train
was again waiting, berths made up, for
the second night of the trip.
Tho second day nt Detroit was spent
at plant one, whero the E-M-F "30" Is
made, and the program so planned that
It dwelt chiefly on manufacturing opera
tions not inspected at plant three. The
dealers also took advantage of the fact
that tho office headquurters are at this
plant, to renew associations with men
met while traveling, and with others
whom they had known only through the
medium of correspondence. In the big
show room of the factory, resplendent
with new models and a daizllng array
of trophies "won by the company's contest
cars, luncheon was served. A grwup pho
tograph was tfiken by the company pho
tographer. A ride around Detroit's boule
vard and parkway system made pleasant
the afternoon.
' The last formal feature was a banquet
at the Ponchartraln. Sales Manager
Smith officiated as toastmaster and ad
dresses wore made by Mr. Flanders, E.
Le Roy Pelletler, advertising director,
other prominent officials, and Parney
Oldfleld. Responses were made by L. A
Keller, and ethers from the party.
. One of tho Interesting talks of the sec
ond evening's banquet was made by N.
H. Ounn, a member of tho Harvard fa
culty, and of Gunn and Richards, expert
business adjusters, lis spoke of the or

handling of the business of sr largo 1
concern. The newspaper men In the part
were personally cared for while In De
troit by Charles H. Hooth. Mr. Rooth
has often visited the west' as manager
of the Henry W. Savage productions.
His wife, Adeline Dunlap, Is leading
woman In the company playing
"Madame X."
The best -testimony of the appreciation
of every man on the trip was the fact
that when the train "pulled Into Omaha
they alt wished the trip were Just making
its start.
That's what we now offer, for wet nnd wintry weather. In the most
popular tires that were ever created tho Goodyear No-Rim-Cut tires.
Such a combination, when yon know the facts, is fairly irresistible.
The Three Greatest
Troubles Avoided
One great tire trouble has been the
danger of rim-ctittino;. Of all the
ruined old-type tires, 22 have beea
rim-cut.
The Goodyear No-Rim-Cut tire our
patented type makes rim-cutting im
possible. Out of 700,000 sold to dato
there has never been an instance of
rim-cutting. ,
Another great trouble has been blow
outs due to overloading. Goodyear
No-Rim-Cut tires are 105 over the
rated size, adding 10 to the carrying
capacity 25 to the average mileage.
These new-type tires, costing no
more than other standard tires, have
cut tire bills in half for tens of thou
sands of motorists. As a result, in the
past two years, our sales havo in
creased by 500 .
Now the Third
Now we have met, with these same
tires, the third
of your great
troubles. That
Is the danger of
skidding.
Our experts
have worked
for three years
on o-perfect
Non-Skid tread. Now It is ready for yon.
It is an extra tread, as thick a3 our
regular, vulcanized onto the tire. That
means a double tread.
The tread is immensely wear-resisting.
It is made up of deep-cut blocks,
grasping the road surface by count
rss edges and angles.
The blocks are wide at the base so
they spread the strain. Their double
thickness makes them almost punc-i
ture-proof.
The, tread remains effective until It
all wears off. Then our regular tread
is below It.
The Ideal Tire
'This is the best device against slid-'
diug by far the best that was ever
put onto a tire. And it goes on a tiro
that cant rim-cut an oversize tire
tho most popular tire on the market.!
Don't buy a tire lacking all these ad-1
vantages until you know what this tire'
means.

GOOD FROM GOOD ROADS MOYE
Men Nationally Prominent Are Tak
ing Interest in Thii Work.
GOVERNORS IN THE DISCUSSION
Soma Mtatea Are Taklnsr Vp the
Work Convicts An Heine Rata '
ployed in Homo rtlous
of tho Coontry.
When . two novernors, one from ths
north and the other from the south, a na
tional senator second to none In prom
inence, and. a senior stats senator, par
ticipate In a dinner (riven by leading; offi
cers of the American Automobile associa
tion, which function resolved Itself Into
a general discussion of good roads, some
substantial results are assured in the
fairly Immediate future.
During- the overnlKht stop of the Amer
ican Automobile association reliability
tour In Philadelphia, President Ilobert P.
Hooper, Chairman Howard Unngstretch
of the touring Information board and
Powell Evans, president of the Automo
bile club of Phlladelpla, gave a dinner at
the Union league with a Hat of guests
which Included Governor Tenor of Penn
sylvania, Governor Smith of Oeorgla,
Vnlted States Senator Holes Penrose and
State Senator Bprou. On the same day,
In the ride acroia New Jersey, Oovernor
Wilson had been the guest of Oovernor
Smith, who was a contestant In the Amer
ican Automobile association tour. The
next day Governor Tener, In his own car,
carried Oovernor Smith to historical
Gettysburg. When tho tour entered West
Virginia Oovernor Glasscock became the
oompanlon of Georgia's chief executive.
It wss a source of disappointment that
Oovernor Mann of Virginia could not find
It convenient to accompany the motor
cavalcade through the Shenandoah valley,
especially on the mountainous jsurney
from Staunton to Roanoke and then over
the Blue Ridge Into North Carolina. The
"old dominion" governor, throUKh per
sonal experience, would have realised the
great need and value ot a first-class
Interstate highway through scenery re
markable for grandeur and beauty. Uut
Oovernor Smith has a remedy which he
will undoubtedly seek to apply when he
takes his seat In the senate at Washing
ton, for he believes that a large part of
the aiountainous sections of Virginia and
North Carolina should be Included In the
extension of the conservation work of
the federal government. This would
mean up-to-date roads with provision for
their very essential maintenance which
must follow. '
Make tJettrsbnra; Accessible.
In the talk at Philadelphia, It de
veloped that Pennsylvania Is greatly
concerned in the building of roads that
will - make Oettysburg more accessible,
though there Is a pronounced feeling that
the Uncoln Memorial Highway should be
built from the National capital under
Federal supervision. This gradual Unking
of north and south by roads deserving
of the name unquestionably received a
decided Impetus at the Philadelphia gath
ering which In time they may come to
be looked upon as having been of mo
mentous weight In the progress ot high
way Improvement. One of those present
was P. J. Walker, president of the Cali
fornia State Automobile association, who
made It clear that the Paclflo Coast
strongly believes In national highways
which shall connect the Atlantic and Pa
clflo seaboards. Charles J. GUdden,
lonor of the touring trophy bearing his
ame; Henry K. Walton, ex-speaker of
the Pennsylvania House of Renreaenta..
tlves, and A. O. liatchalrin A. A a
Executive Committee chairman, were
among the other guests.
One thing which greatly Impressed the
. A. A. tourists, as they went farther
southward, was tho widespread employ
ment of convicts In road building. North-
Carolina Is more than awake to the worth
Of roads; Pouth Carolina Is equally alive
adding to its Improved mileaae: Geor
gia has used convicts In over a hundred
counties; and Florida Is on tli verira
of state-wide roads agitation and better
ment. President Hooner of the A. A A
believes that the South will outstrio
many sections of country In securing
comprehensive state road systems, mainly
Decause or the employment of the rnn.
vlcts and the fact that the cotton farm
ers are buying automobiles In generous
quantities and are considering motor
trucks.

George Coffey Wins
a Hollow Victory
. George Coffey won his habans corpus ac
tion to compel Chief of Police Donahue
to release hlra from custody Saturday
morning before Judge Day, but It was a
hollow victory. Donahue released him and
Deputy United States Marshal Hays ar
rested him on a warrant, charging aiding
the escape of a prisoner. The warrant
had been sent up. from Leavenworth.
Kan. After Coffey was acquitted !n dlr
trlct court Thursday, J. M. Macfarland,
Ms attorney, started habeas corpus ac
tion against Sheriff Tlralley, who was
holding him for the federal authorities.
When the case come up for hearing
Bralley had turned Coffey over to Chief
Donahue. By the time Macfarland got a
hearing against Donahue, the warrant
had arrived and the chief was perfectly
willing to let Coffey go.
