There is nothing in Goodrich Advertising that isn't in Goodrich Goods ', ' 1 Goodric Tires Best in the long run When we tell you that Goodrich Tires are best in the lonjr run we mean that for dar-in-and-day-out sen-Ice they are bo made and molded as to give you lonjr, consistent, unl- torm, satislactory wear and contin ued, comfortable pleasant riding-. We mean that Goodrich Tires an advantage to whatever car they are used upon. We mean that, as the maker nf practically half the 1013 output of 1018 cars signify by buying Goodrich Tires for equipment, thev huor nn and benefit your automobile, thereby increasing its Bervice value to you. Whatever car yon own or bur vou can have It equipped with Goodrich Tires if you specify them. Frequently our attention Is called to instances where Goodrich Tives have given unusual mileage and shown Unusually lone life under the most oevero strains, and in the most trying conditions. We do not feature these unsoli cited testimonials in our advertlxtnrr although they are so remarkably numerous aa to be most gratifying to us. t We ask you to buy and nse Good rich Tires upon our straightforward, conservative promise of their quality and durability. Forty-three years of active, suc cessful rubber manufacturing is, we believe you will agree, valuable ex perience. And it goes into every Goodrich Tire. This knowledge of how to com pound the purest rubber so that it not only retains every bit of its life and resiliency but Is imbued with surprising resistance and toughness wearing quality is one reason for Goodrich Tires being best in the long run. We believe Goodrich Tires on the average give longer wear than any other you can find. They must do this because our principle unit moldini unchanged in all the time we have been making tires gives the constructional perfection which Insures against the greatest variety of road and weather conditions. When the car driver is careful In giving proper attention to his tire. keeps them properly inflated, sen sibly avoids unnecessary shocks nl strains, he gets astonishingly long mileage but these records do nnf justify our making claims that would establish a wrong impression, and that is why they are not used in our advertising. Gopdrich Unit Molding makes one integral piece of both thick, tough tread and strong, resilient body. The tread, being sthe tire and not put an it', naturally does not strip or peel. The extra reinforcement of the sides with strips of pure rubber does away with the chance for rim troubles. Unit Molding has unified the whole tire, so there arc no layers or separation lines In it it is all ent; and therefore insures long uni form wear.

Faults developed tires fell down countless tires came back. It is not from choice that any maker offers tires that rim-cut now. Our Secret The only way known to make a faultless tire of this typo Is by uslnc braid ed wire banda in the base. Wo uso six of these bands 126 wires. Wo set them at certain ancles. Thus wo make a tiro which nothing can force off, yet a tiro which doesn't hook to the rim. These bauds are made by a secret machine, under lock and key. And no way has been found to make anything else which equally serves tho purpose. That Is why tho demand (or this new type centers on No-Rlm-Cat tires. Their Record No-RlnvCut tires have been used (or sevon years used on hundreds of thousands of cars. Not a fault has developed. Not a tire of this kind has ever been known to rim-cut. In addition, these tires have 10 percent greater air capac ity than tho same rated size in clinchers. And that, on tho average, adds 25 per cent to tho tire mileage All theso advantages, yet no extra price. That Is why theso tires outsell all others why tho demand grows like a flood. Theso are now tho world's (avorite tires. Write for the Goodyear Tire Book 14th-year edition. It tells all known ways to econ omize oa tires.
