Automobflists of Washington are
taking great interest in the treat rne
Times will give to the old ladies' OF
the institutions and homes in the city
on September Is. Already. IN re-
sponse to the appeal for automobiles
for this ride, the writer, who Is
chairman of the committee in charge
of the ride, has received numerous
letters and telephone messages from
automobile owners who are anxious to
oontribute their cars for the event.
Every old lady in every one OF the
seventeen institutions in the Capital
CITY will be invited. provided enough
automobiles are forthcoming for their
accommodation. These aged, White-
hatred women are anxiously counting
the days until the 18th, and hoping
for pleasanr weather so that nothing
may occur to mar the pleasure mat
this day has in store for them.
Among the first to offer an auto
mobile for the old ladies' ride was
@. H. williams, of the Bureau OF
Forestry, to whose cooperation and
suggestion is partly due the ride
that Is now being planned. Mr. VIII
Hams has on various occasions given
his time, his labor, and his car Tor
the good cheer work which The Times
has organized from time to time. MT
Williams will drive his automobile
himself.
Automobile Dealers Help.
The automobile owners have been gen.
erous in their offers, too. Within
twenty-four hours after announcement
had been made that The Times con-
tempiated this treat for the old ladies
of the Capital City. the following deal
ers had communicated with Miss Muir
dock with offers of the loan of their
cars for the afternoon of September Is:

baker car; C. Royce Hough. one Stude-
baker car; w. p. Barnhart & Co., one
King car and one Pullman car, and

Ri1n-Cuts Ruin
/ Clincher Tire in3

This l. why hundreds of Thousands Of
men use Goodyear No-Rim- Cut tires.
The clincher tire-the hooked-base tire
will rim-cut. You must, with that type, turn
your rim fanges inward. And those thin
curved-in edges cut the tire when wholly or
partly debated.
Statistics show that 31.8 per cent of all
ruined clincher tires are discarded for rim
cutting only. And these statistics were gath
cred by certified public accountants.
The Washington times., 1913-09-06
Tread Separation

Loose treads have cost tire users millions
of dollars. A breaker strip, in all well-made
tires, comes at the base of the tread. It is
near this strip that separation comes.
This breaker strip in No-Rim-Cut tires has
hundreds of holes in it, made by special
weave. The tread rubber is forced down
through these holes, forming hundreds of
large rubber rivets. Then the tire Is vul-
canized en- masse.
We paid $50, 900 for this patented way
to prevent tread separation.

We do this so the fabric won't be left
wrinkled. So every part of the fabric assumes
its full share of strain.
All other tires are vulcanized on iron cores
alone. The fierce compression often wrinkles
the fabric and that wrinkled fabric escapes the
strain. That causes thousands of blow-outs.
This "On-An Cure" adds to our cost
$500 daily. 1t Is 90 costly that no other
maker employs it.
