MERITS AND M|LACE
Of MILLER TIRES
Frank B. Bosch Local Represen.
tative Explains Advantages Of
Non-Skids and Retreads

The new home of the Miller Rubber
Company's Los Angeles branch at Pico
and Hope streets, is completed and the
doors opened last Monday
The new branch will be. under the
direction of Walter Sahland, who is
one of the best known automobile men
in California and has been in business
IN this field for more than ten years.
The business of the Miller Rubber
Company has increased so rapidly on
the coast that this makes the fourth
move in Los Angeles since its modest
beginning few years ago.
Locally the Miller Rubber Company
| is represented by the Sterling Auto
Tire Company at 1451 Zarker street
who maintain distributing agency
for Miller tires. When seen by our
reporter this week, Mr.. Bosch said:
The condition of our business is eX-
tremely gratifying, there have been SO
many of our old customers around
Tor new tires that we are assured that
the tire is giving the utmost satisfac-
t1on, and the old riders have been the
means of sending many new riders to
us. The Miller nonskid is rapidly COM
ing to the front as the most economi
, cal proposition on the market. We
| have record to-day of about $500
miles on the rear of one of the heavi-
est touring cars in the city, on a rear
wheel where on tire had ever run A.
! 500 miles before, and the Miller tire
| is still looking fine. We will show on
this car that to spend thirty per cent.
more for the sake OF buying a five
| thousand mile guaranty is wasting
money. Miller nonskids are averag-
ing over six thousand miles in Harris
burg and this high average coupled
with u reasonable price is our proof
of tire economy. 1t is easy to buy
tires at prices less than we get for
Miller tires but the initial saving is
soon dissapated in repair bills and the
riders doubts as to the safety of his
tires becomes third brake on his
car. The safety of Miller tires is
proven by its taking front rank in the
grind of long distance speed contests,
where there is every opportunity to
pound the tire to pieces. [ am ready
to dem onstrate that a Miller nonskid
coupled up with one of our Sterling
retreads will give more miles for less
money than even the unguaranteed
tire propositions floating around so
plentifully these days, and the Miller
tire is the best retreading proposition
on the market. Our repair shop puts
us in intimate touch with the founda
ton of the different makes of tires, for
we repair all makes offered us, in the
inVincible Sterling manner with the
best materials, and back our work with
a thorough guarantee for service. Wei
have always marked our work with a
distinguishing mark, we feel RESPONSE |
BILE for our work and our mark Is a
mark of our willingness to back that
responsibility to the limit: it prevents
any argument. If our mark Is on the
work, we did it, If a tire needs re-
pair and Is worth repairing, we will
repair it and guarantee the work; if
1t is not worth repairing, that is, If the
cost of repair cannot be cancelled in
the future service the owner has q
right to expect. we will not do the
work and take the owners money.
That has been the policy of my shop
from tire start and that policy will be
strictly maintained. Regardless of
price [ believe such a proposition is
the fairest and cheapest that can be
offered the owner. The rapidly grow
ing list of loyal patrons would seem
to endorse such a policy if 1t needed
endorsement, but / take it that they
have found what they want and real
ize that their patronage is an insur-
ance against unwise expenditure"
