On top of the discussion of plans

is a growing sentiment among
farmers and fruit growers that
a more general practice of di-

the fruit grower will have his

Profit Sharing

We believe that men work best who
have share in the earnings. And that
owners of the business are apt to best
serve its patrons.
SO 134 of our leading men share in the
Goodyear profits. And the Company has
helped them acquire their stock.
Our branch managers are stockholders.
Thus our dealings with the public, the
whole country over, are being conducted
by partners.
In our factories, building tires, there
are 40 stockholders. In our Office there
are 33.
Ninety per cent of the Goodyear COM
mon stock is owned by the active men in
the concern.
Every voice in our policy, every factor
in quality, every creator of Goodyear repu-
taton, shares the results Of his actions.
We know of no better way TO insure
to our customers the service which we
intend.

All Young Men

We believe in young men, and our
organization consists of them. The most
important man in it, in manufacturing
way, is So years old.
Thus the Goodyear concern typifies the
activity, the enthusiasm, the ambition,
the enterprise of youth.
Each mans career lies mainly before
him. SO none rests on his laurels, none
is yet easing up.
Goodyear men, wherever you meet
them, are the kind you like to meet. They
personify intelligent activity.

largely due to the enormous volume OF

Fictitious capital, calling for dividends,
compels prices out of reason.
SO we have clung TO modest capitaliza-

tire business. Not a dollar of water in

Fairness and Truth

Above all, with these men we insist on
fair dealing, and on utter regard for the
truth.
Faults and mistakes are forgiven by
all of us, but unfairness and falSehood
are not.
Here lies, we believe, the chiefest
reason for the Goodyear growth. Wher-
ever you seek you'll find a boundless
faith in what the Goodyear people do.
New-York tribune., 1912-08-25

For our factories we pick the most
promising men who come from great
technical schools.
Every year our superintendent visits
the best of these schools, where he aims
to select the very cream of the graduates.
Thus we have gathered here, in the
course of years, an army of trained and
competent men. And the future OF all OF
them depends on better tires.

We believe that active competition,

TO consumers.
1t makes quality essential, compels
fair prices, induces square deal.
Under free competition the best man
wins, and that's best for all concerned.
So we maintain complete independence.
We have no trade alliances, no gentle

Even our patents are licensed to

Nine tires in ten, when of just rated size, are
at times much overloaded. Sometimes by extras
added to the car - sometimes by overweight
passengers.
1t is figured that per cent added to the
weight takes Is per cent from the tire mileage.
So we made these es-No-Rim-Cut tires
10 per cent over the rated size. And that 10 per
cent oversize, under average conditions, adds
25 per cent TO the tire mileage.
These two features together - No-Rim.Cut
and oversize - have saved motor car owners
many millions of dollars. For tens of thousands
of men they have cut tire bills in two.
