LOZIER TRUCKS WILL '

Reports that the Losler Motor com
pany has abandoned Its intention of en
tering the motor truck field, published In
recent issues of several trade magazines
and newspapers, are declared absolutely
without foundation by H. A. Loiier,

crease of his company s touring car
business has made necessary the concen
tration of all facilities of the plant on
the manufacture of the pleasure vehicles.
He predicts, however, the start of truck
manufacturing some time next fall.

The Mots cushion tire Is universally re
garded as the only easy riding tire that
frees the motorist from punctures and
blowout troubles. This is due to it. i
genlous physical construction, it ha
double treads, which, being notched
make it non-skid. The trouble treads
also distribute the weight to the Sides.
The under cut sides are supported bv
slantwise elastic bridges, which give and
yield line tne air in pneumatic tires.
If you Ford it you'll cut
the world in half, double the
length of your day, and in

No-Rim-Cut Tires
10 Oversize
Equip One-Third the Cars
One-third of all new cart going out this .year
are equipped with Goodyear tires. S
About one-third of all motor car owners have
now adopted these tires.
And one-third of all cars at this year's Shows
had Goodyear tire equipment ; .
Such is the present status of these wondrous
tires. And the demand has doubled in the past six
months. ; .:. ,,'
Tire Upkeep Cut in Two
A million and a quarter of these
premier tires have now gone into
use. They have been tested out on
some 200,000 cars,
They were tested on our claim
that No-Rim-Cut tires cot the
j average tire bills in two. And the
1 present demand proves they did it.
No-Rim-Cttt three now far out
sell any other tire In the world.
Our output now is nearly 100,000
tires monthly.
How They Do It
No-Rim-Cat tires end rim-cnt-ting
forever. And rim-cutting
occurs on 23 per cent of all the
old-type tires. . .
That is proved by statistics cov
ering many thousands of ruined
clincher tires.
In addition to that, No-Rim-Cut
tires are 10 per cent over the rated
size. And 10 per cent overslse,
tinder average conditions, adds 25
per cent to the tire mileage.
So these patent tires save 23 per
cent, plus 25 per cent, on the
average.
They save, in fact, more than
that. For No-Rim-Cut tires are
, the final result of 13 years spent
in tire making. ,
In perfecting them we tested
out 240 formulas and fabrics. Wft
tested them bv metered mileaea
i on testing machines In out factory, ,
"k. x These years olteste have taucjrt
us now to get toe utmost pmtaga
from a rubber tire. '
You get all that perfection, plus
tires that can't rim-cut, plus over
size tires, when you get this patent
type- . . -
Our 1012 Tire Boob based on
13 years of tire making is filled
with facte you should know. Ask
