More than half the trouble in accidents, breakdowns and
expensive delays and repair hills in the operations of motor
Cars Result from the use of gear transmission
There are only one third as many parts to a friction drive as
there is to a gear drive. You get 20 per cent mor power out
of your engine from a friction drive than out of a gear drive.
They run smoother, you have no jump and jar when you
start up, no z z z-z-ip, but just a smooth start, your tire ex
pense is cut hair in two.
Get all this in mind when you buy a car this year. Let Lee

You’ll appreciate “Tess and Ted” school shoes because four
pairs usually last as long as five pairs of ordinary shoes made for
children.
The better class of people everywhere now recognize “Tess
and Ted” school shoes as the most satisfactory children’s shoes in
existence. The reason is that they Look Better, Fit Better and
Wear Longer—that it’s a “Star Brand” shoe, and
“Star Brand Shoes Are Better**
‘Tess and Ted” school shoes are
made In all the different leathers—in high
cuts, regular heights and Osforas. There’s
a style for every age and condition of
childhood, from five to fifteen years.
They are honestly made of good,
solid leather. Wo paper, composition or
other substitutes for leather are ever used.
