They have brought new enjoyment lets cost and trouble to hundred! of thousands of motoristi. The result ii that Goodyears have for yean held top place in Tiredom. And last year, deipite some hundred rivals, Goodyear supplied about one tire for every car in use. . These Two Rocks Remain Tho two rocks that remain are Mishap and Misuse. No tire can ever aroid them. But tires should be Judged by merit, not by luck by the average, not the exception. Men who do that are bound to find their ideal tire in Goodyeae. ft OODCPYEAR AKRON.
