Goodyear Prices
It is Folly Today to Pay More

There exists now new, compelling
reason for buying Goodyear tises. 1t re-
suits from War conditions.
These leading tires built Of extra fine
rubber, in the same way as always-are
selling today at June prices.
You will find today a very wide difference
between most tire prices and Coodyears.
Due to Quick Action
Early in August-when war began-the
worlds rubber markets seemed closed to us.
Rubber prices doubled almost over night.
Men could see no way to pay for rubber
abroad, and no way to bring it in. We, like
others-in that panic-were forced to higher
prices. But we have since gone back to prices
we charged before the war, and this is how
we did it:
We had men in London and Singapore when
the war broke out. The larger part Of the
worlds rubber supply comes through there.
We cabled them to buy up the pick of the rub
Der. They bcught-before the advance, $780,
600 pounds of the finest rubber there
Nearly all this is now on the way to us.
And it means practically all of the extra-grade
rubber obtainable abroad.
Today we have our own men in Colombo
Singapore and Para. Those are the worlds
chief sources Of rubber. So We are pretty well
assured of constant supply, and our pick Of
the best that's produced.
We were first on the ground. We were quick
est in action. As result, we shall soon have in

storage an almost record supply Of this extra
grade of rubber.
And we paid about June prices.
Now Inferior Grades Cost Double
About the only crude rubber available now
for many makers is inferior. In ordinary times,
the best tire makers refuse it, Much Of it had
been rejected But that "off rubber" now sells
for much more than we paid for the best
The results are these:
Tire prices in general are far in advance Of
Goodyears. And many tire makers, short Of
supplies, will be forced to use second d-grade
rubber.

WILLING 70 HELP

Mrs. .Keene was very much bride,
in fact she had only just been mar
ried and knew absolutely nothing at
all about household matters. Imagine
her CONSERVATION, then, when her
cook left her suddenly on the morn
ing of the very day that four guests
were expected to arrive for dinner.
Of course, Mrs. Keene rushed
round and managed to secure tenn
porary maid. But to prepare dinner
for six proved to be task altogether
beyond the newcomers capabilities.
So, descending to the kitchen, where
she found the girl struggling with a
coffee-machine, the mistress volun-
teered to be of some assistance.
NOW, what can 1 do frst?" she
asked.
'''WeIl, num-" confessed the maid,

Many Want to Enlist.

Jackson. Miss, April 22. -
Despite the fact that there seems
to be very little present prospects
of National Guard organizations
being called into action, Missis-
sippi militiamen are literally
champing at the bits, and eagerly
hoping that they will have an
opportunity to take part in the
war in Mexico.
Numbered among the officers
and enlisted men Of the Missis.
sippi National Guard are hun
reds of descendants of members
of the famous first Mississippi
regiment AIKEN by jefferson Da,
Wis to the Mexican war of the
late '40s, and who formed the
famous Vshaped wedge that
saved the day in the battle OF
Buena Vista. These grandsons
and great-grandsons who fought
under the man who afterwards
became the chieftain of the Con.
federacy are apparently ever
more eager today for conflict
than their ancestors Of nearly
seventy years ago.
