Two-in-One Vulcanizing Com
pany Use Dry Cure Sys
tem, Saving Life
of Tire.
An automobile casing worn to the
fabric can be repaired to give an
additional mileage of 3,000 miles,
providing the bead is not totally
weakened, says Michael Boylan,
president of the TwIn-One
Vulcanizing company, 1514-16-18
Davenport street Though manag
ing four departments of the com
pany, auto parts, auto repairing,
second hand cars and tire rebuild
ing, Mr. Boylan finds time to take
interest in good roads movement in
Nebraska. Nevertheless, business
is his chief object.
"Motorists are not wlTblly con
scious of the life that is in a tire,"
Mr. Boylan declares. "A consider
able amount of money can be saved
on each tire if the owner would
only have the worn casing rebaked
by the dry-cure system and re
treaded. As long as the fabric and
bead of the tire remain strengthen
ed, the motorist can get an in
creased mileage of more than 3,000
miles out of the casing by rebuild
ing it. !
Rebuilt Tire Wears.
"For half the price of a new tire,
one can have a worn casing rebuilt
to derive the same mileage and sat
isfaction of a new tire," Mr. Boylan
emphasizes.
"In the dry-cure system, we over
come the chance of weakening the
bead by live steam, as a more
thorough development of curing has
been found in bakings the casing.
The dry-cure has no defective effect
on the fabric, but on the other hand
tends to strengthen it by a re-enforced
appliance of retread."
Any kind of tread from cord to
plain can be applied to the worn
tire, Mr. Boylan says.
Forced to Enlarge.
The Two-in-One Vulcanizing
company was organized three years
ago in Omaha, and first took up the
work of repairing tubes and casings.
Increased business in the rebuild
ing of casings made it necessary for
Mr. Boylan to enlarge his quarters,
until today he manages four de
partments at headquarters, 1514-16-18
Davenport itreet, besides a branch
station at 2557 Farnam street,
known as the Douglas Tire and
Vulcanizing company, whereinxhe
also handles an agency for 'the Fisk
tire.
Tn thf summer time. Mr. Rnvlan
employs 28 men in all his depart
ments. T E. Whitney, expert tire
man, is foreman of the vulcanizing
department.
Omaha is not the only territory
that gains the work of the Two-In-One
Vulcanizing company. An im
mense trade reaches the company
from hundreds of towns in the mid
dle west. Trade in far off Georgia,
New Hampshire, New Mexico and
California, is also handled by the
Omaha company.
Oversize Drill.
It is possible to make a drill cut
an oversize hole by grinding one
cutting edge so that it is a little
longer than the other. The hole
will not be aa strictly true as if cut
with a regular drill and the drilling
will not be quite as fast, but it is a
useful emergency measure. Flat and
- twist drills may both be used in this
way.

CONSERVATIVE
TYPE OF CAR III
BIGGERDEflHD
Lee Huff of the Buick Com
pany . Announces a Ma-
terial Reduction in
v Price of Trucks.
The year 1919 will see the con
servative type of car in greater de
mand than the flashy, extravagant
type, according to J. Edward
Kaufman, assistant manager of the
Nebraska Buick Automobile com
pany, Nineteenth and Howard
street.
"The price situation of cars will
be stationary for the year because of
labor conditions," he .said. "Deal
ers have their contracts, already
made up for the biggest business in
years."
A telegram from Lee Huff, gen
eral manager of the Nebraska
Buick Automobile company, whoS
was in New York City during the
past week, advised the local officials
of the shipment of a trainload of
Buick cars, numbering 200, that will
arrive in Omaha sometime during
the week. Mr. Huff returned to
Omaha Saturday.
Mr. Kaufman stated that the cars
have already been sold and will be
delivered as soon as possible.
Many Minor Changes.
Aside from nearly 100 minor de
velopments in the car for the com
fort and satisfaction of the owners,
the Buick"' Six has undergone prac
tically no changes from last year's
models. The motor is featured with
new over-head valves, meaning a
considerable increase in power, and
a steel engine cover, as a protector
from dust, and dirt that might ac
cumulate ifi the ignition system or
cylinder heads.
This year's models of Buick cars
are built only with the six-cylinder
motor, the factory having done away
with the light four. All the com
fort and durability, together with
economy, beauty and service of the
high class cars stand the scrutiny
of the automobile critic.
"The late Buick Six, good to look
upon, comfortable to ride in and
easy to drive stands as a value
worthy of careful consideration and
appeals to the discriminating buyer
who Wishes full value for money ex
pended," Lee Huff declares.
Trucks are Cheaper.
A big drop in' the price of the G.
M. C. truckhandled by the Nebras
ka Buick Automobile company, has
been put into effect by factory of
ficials. All models from the J4-ton
to the 5-ton truck are materially
reduced in price owing to the enor
mous output of G. M. C. trucks and
a lower cost of raw material.
W0;'EN DRIVERS
BROUGHT OUT BY
WORLD BATTLE
Donned Overalls or Whatever
Suited Tasks They Chose;
Mechanical Progress At
tained Remarkable.
Albert N. Atkinson, president of
the Atkinson Automobile school,
says: "It would seem timely to call
attention to the part women have
played in the past four yeara in
helping decide the mightiest victory
since time began. The war is won.
Wrfat part did woman have in it?
While millions have untiringly serv
ed m public capacities, attended the
sick, knitted and fulfilled duties that
would naturally be looked upon as
coming within the domain of wo
man's work, yet we must not for
get for one moment they did not
stop there.
It may have required a war to
cause a sudden and keen realiza
tion of the possible dangers attend
ing our country, but nevertheless
women rose maiestieallw. threw ff
their silks, and satins, donned khaki
overalls or whatever might best suit
the tasks they chose.
There are many lines of work in,
which women are engaged, yet there
perhaps was none more important
than that of the motor car. In the
last two years in New York City
alone upward of 10,000 women have
been Successfully trained in the
care and rmpratirm nf cTf-nrA
pelled vehicles.
the mechanical progress women
have attained is really remarkable.
They are mechanically inclined,
otherwise the repairs they are re
quired to do in order to become
members of some of the organiza
tions they serve could not be suc
cessfully accomplished, and what
has been attained surprises many
of the experienced men mechanics.
Women Efficient
At the Red Cross, Motor Corps
of America and National League
for Woman's Service in New York,
where severkl hundred cars and
ambulances are maintained solely
by women, you will find they are
efficient in the performance of what
has heretofore been looked upon as
man's work alone.
During the terrible conflict abroad
about 30,000 women kept as many
ambulances, supply trucks and other
types of cars going. This does not
mean that they simply drove these
vehicles,; but alsj that they were
kept in repair, washed and cleaned
by them. At some stations it was
the duty of one woman to clean
eight cars a day. The specific work
Performance Plus Protection
Because of its unusual power and unfailing stamina, the new National
Convertible Sedan will take you where you want to go, regardless of
weather and road conditions and with the recognized efficiency of any
National open model. In this Sedan, the protection, common to closed
cars, is combined with a wide range of activity seldom found in auto
mobiles of this body type. And it is a distinctive car, in appearance as
well as in performance.

Now that women have so admir
ably proven their ability in the
motor car field what does the future

standpoint? .thousands ot new

by the war, and women should be

Autolsts Throw Away
Used Tires Too Soon
Says Fabric Expert
That motorists throw away too
many partly worn tires that can
easily be repaired for increased us
age of 3,000 miles is the opinion of
J. Schenberger, general manager of
the Good-wear 1 ire and Oarage com
pany, Twenty-seventh and Leaven
worth streets. As long as the fabric
of a tire is unworn and the bead of
the casing is in a healthy condition
casings may be restrengthened to
their original durability, according
to dealers in the tire industry.
In the acquirement of complete
knowledge of the manufacture and
rebuilding tt tires, J. bchenberger,
general manager, and S. L. Zimmer
man, secretary of the company, have
built up an extensive trade during
the past year. The company follows
the Dri-Kure Mole system of baking
and retreading casings, thus rein
forcing the fabric and bead of the
tire.
The partly worn casing undergoes
five stages of development to the
fully repaired tire; from the cutting
away of the worn rubber the casing
is turned inside out for an inspection
and reinforcement of the inner fab
rjc; after which the fabric is buffed
and cemented to repair the defects
of the worn tire; the final stage is
the baking and curing of the whole
tire by the Dri-Mole system. A
guarantee of 3,000 miles is given
with the rebuilding of. the worn
tires, officials of the Good-Wear
Tire and Garage company declare.
The report of the joint congres
sional committee, which investiga
ted highway economics in 1914.
shows that a saving of eight cents
per ton mile can be effected in trans
portation costs where a road is lift
ed from the dirt" to the durable
class. This does not take into ac
count increased real estate valua
tions or social advantages resulting
from the improvement.
Omaha Firm Is Making
