Trucks Are Practical for Use
On Country Roads As Well As City Streets
You can use a Dearborn
8 truck just as many days in
the year as you can use a
team. If you must use a
truck when roads are'
heavy, a Dearborn will
pull its load over the same
road that your team will.

Touring Bureau Beats
Cock Robin Out of Job
Cock Kobin, tinie-honored har
binger of spring, has lost his job. To
use the easy vernacular of Toozer
(ierspaclier Motor company, who
spends the best part of every work
ing day boosting the Dort car with
the enthusiasm of the successful cr
merchant, "the newspaper touring
bureau and the motoring journal have
beaten Cock Robin to it."
Cock Robin can still dig his worms
in the front yard, and the spring poet
can immortalize his lay; but it's the
touring bureau that tells us today if
the west road is good and where
we have to detour, and what we can
expect to find on the road between
here and there.
April S seems to be the date set by
a number of the motor publications
for their spring touring numbers.
This is hardly two weeks away.

rare art treasures from the Orient.

personally selecting Oriental mer

Kites are being sent up every day

are forwarded to Washington for use

use of recording balloons and box
kites, the government is able to keep
an intelligent record of atmospheric

miles.
Kites Reach Heights.
The kites reach a height of four

flight is three miles. They are held
by steel music wire one-lhity-second

Records made by these kites indi

Small balloons used by th - aerological

IF you have been disappointed in finding your own
dealer out of stock in Goodyears, you can end this
annoyance from now on.
Regular Goodyear Service Stations have been ap
pointed in f name of city j who carry at all times Goodyear
Tires and Goodyear Tubes in every size, and Goodyear
Accessories. If you will call on one of these dealers you
will receive tire service you have probably never known
before.
One out of every five cars in the country today is en
joying the longer mileage and the lower mileage cost
of Goodyear Tires.
The extraordinary favoritism shown this particular tire
would be even larger than this if everyone who asked
for Goodyears got them.
For Goodyear Service Station Dealers are not content
in merely selling you Goodyear Tires, Goodyear Tubes
and Goodyear Accessories. Their interest continues
until you have had maximum mileage and satisfaction
from them.
They all have the same purpose, the same disposition
to hold your business by getting your friendship, by
giving you the service you nave a right to expect.
This service is given you over and above the extra
mileage built into Goodyear Tires, which makes them
go farther and last longer, and so cost you less in the end.
