wish to say:
Don't think because

that our clothing lacks
the superlative in Quality.
We strive to talk to you
in type as we would face

"hot air"-fake sale fiction-to
our notion, have no place in the
legitimate clothing business. You
would have very little respect for
us, and still less confidence in our
merchandise, if our salespeople
greeted you at this store with a
shower of superlative adjectives
and preposterOus claims. Yet
that is the manner of many in
their newspaper greetings.

Remove Mud and Rust
Before Putting on Tire

Before applying tires remove rust
and all other foreign matter" says l.
Greenwald, of the Firestone Tire Com
pany. IF the tire has been ridden de-
fiated at any time, mud may have ac-
cumulated on the rim, and unless this
is removed the tire cannot adjust itself
properly. Soapstone busted on the rim
will act as a lubricant and make it
much easier for the tire beads to slip
mot their correct position, thereby re-
ducing the danger of pinching the in
ner tube TO a minimum.
Before placing the inner tube inside
of case innate just enough to rori' II
out. Do not use a tube of the W rs
size. and be sure that the spree -er
of the valve is adapted for the part:cu-
lar type OF case, whether regular
cIincher, quick detachable clincher, OF
@, D. cable base.) Dust tube and in
side of case with tale, which will re-
duce the friction and prevent adhesion
OF the tube to the case after heated In
service. If too much tale Is used, how
ever. any any water should work It's
way on the inside of the tire, there Is
danger of grit and attending injury 70
the tube. Powdered graphite Is not
quite SO nice to handle as tale, but Is
a much more durable lubricant"
