Remember This

A few years ago, three other
tires combined - outsold the
Goodyears by 10 times over.
From that point Goodyears
have quickly jumped to the top
most place in Tiredom.
And last years sales by far
exceeded our previous II years
put together.
This has been done in this
day of odometers, when men
keep track of tire mileage.
And today's position comes
when men have used two mil
lion Goodyear tires.
Can't you see that No-Rim-
Cut tires, in some way, must
give amazing mileage?
The Washington herald., 1913-03-23

The French government plans to spend more than
sg,. 900 in improving the harbor Of Rouen and
the channel of the River Seine
The Washington herald., 1913-03-23
Start Right

Start this new season right.
Test out No-Rim-Cut tires. See
if they save you what they save
others.
1t will make a big difference
on the seasons tire cost.
Start judging tires by the cost
per mile. Then you will see
why No-Rim-Cut tires are the
wanted tires today.
Don't buy skimpy tires this
season. Don't buy tires that
rim-cut. Those are wastes
which we avoid. : You can see
this at glance,
The Washington herald., 1913-03-23
NO-Rin-Cut Tires
lO% Oversize
No Petty Saving

No petty savings have made Goodyear
tires outsell every other.
Rim-cut ruin, which we save, wrecks 23
per cent of all old-type tires.
10 per cent oversize, under average con-
ditions, adds Is per cent to the tire mileage.
And those are but part of the savings.
The Washington herald., 1913-03-23

tires could never have made
this record.
You know that. lou must
also know that your experience

WILL
HEAR HELEN KELLER
REMARKABLE BLIND GIRL AND
HER INSTRUCTOR TO SPEAK
HERE SATURDAY NIGHT.

Helen Keller. the wonderful blind
girl, known the world over for her
remarkable and successful fight
against the handicap of complete
deafness blindness and dumbness. will
tell the people of her struggle against
odds and of her achievements, AT
the same time, Mrs. Macy, Helen
Keller's teacher and the one who Is
admired as much as her pupil. Will
also appear.
The lecture will be given Saturday
evening at $3.50 o'clock, under the
auspices of Virginia Randolph Elicit
Alumnae association, of Bryn Mawr.
The proceeds will be devoted to the
establishment of scholarship at
Bryn Mawr.
Helen Keller's life has been an un-
broken series of triumphs over OBJ
stacles. Deaf and blind at the age
of nineteen months, she remained in
intellectual darkness until she was
nearly seven. Then Mrs. Macy (Miss
Sullivan) a graduate of the Perkins
institution, where DIR. Howe had done
his great work with Laura Bridg-
man, went to Helen Kelier's home in
Alabama, and began her education.
At the age of ten Helen Keller learn
ed to speak. At sixteen she was pre-
pairing Tor COIIeEe. SHe graduated
from Radcliffe college in 1904. receiv-
ing the degree of bachelor of arts.
cum laude with distinction). While
she was in college she wrote THE
Story of My Life" which has been
translated into fifteen languages.
Since then she has written three
books and has devoted herself to
work for the blind and the deaf. AT
several meetings in their behalf, she
has delivered a spoken address. But
her voice did not carry far then and
it was always necessary for someone
to repeat what she said, sentence by
sentence.
During the past year she has taken
another step forward in her remark
able career. Under the instruction of
Mr.. Charles White. a teacher of sing
ing at the New England Conserya-
tory of Music. she has greatly inn
proved her speaking voice. During
the summer of 1912 she spoke before
a convention of teachers of the deaf
at Providence. +. /. This was the first
time that she stood alone on public
platform. a few months later she
addressed an audience of physicians
at the biological congress held in
Boston at the Harvard Medical
school. The success of these expert
ments has encouraged her to appear
before the general public.
