Universal Usefulness
JOWADAYS many tire-makers are urging motorists
..to.u.se non"skids on rear wheels and smooth-treads
or "driving" tires on front wheels.
The reason given it that ordinary
non-tkidt, with their mall projec
tion!, make steering difficult when
used, in front, the effect being
much the lame as driving over
rough roads.
Though some non-skids are unsat
isfactory on front wheels, it is evi
dent that the use of two different
kinds of tires involves serious disadvantages.
II
mm
In the first place it becomes neces
sary to carry an additional spare
in order to be properly equipped
for emergencies!- i
Secondly, a smooth-tread driving,
tire does not afford protection
against skidding. The ideal tire is
a non-skid constructed so that it
protects against skidding and yet)
steers easily and smoothly.
Such a tire ts the Michclin Universal Non-Skid. It is a Universal
tire tn fact as well as in name. Its patented tread is the most
effective rubber non-skid ever devised. Yet this tread is so broad
and flat that it steers just as smoothly and easily as a plain tread.
When used on all four wheels Michelins ensure the"")
Utmost economy, satisfaction and safety all around.

suggestion is that tho business men

followed all over tho country. To this
end Mr. Temple has classified the
business and professional men of the

quota of tho publicity oxnenso nnd
notified each by 'letter of tho amount
