MANY CAR BUILDERS
USE GOODYEAR Tires
Two Thirds Of Manufac-
turerS Adopt New Pallem
This Year

"The judgment Of car manufaciur-
ers who pick Goodyear Cord Tires
for standard equipment is being back
ed by thousand of individual car own
ers,' says L. c. Rotkhnl. Manager.
Automobile Tire Department. The
Goodyear Tire d Rubber Company.
1T is doubtless interesting to know
that two-thirds Of the new cars which
manufacturers equip with cord tires
come equipped with Goodyear Cords.
And car manufacturers. in the class
where cord tires may be expected as
regular equipment, choose carefully.
quality counts with such manufac-
turers more than price. quality and
class come first. all other considera-
tions are minor.
so Goodyear Cord Tires are stand
ard equipment on the Franklin. the
Packard Twin Six. the Locomobile.
the Peerless, the White and the
Haynes Twelve.
But fully as significant Is the fact
that Goodyear Cords are seen on
thousands OF Hudsons. Studebakers.
Cadillacs. Bucks. Hupmobiles. Reos,
Oldsmobilos, Chambers. Paiges. Chal-
mers, and so on, through a whole big
list"

CANTILEVER Spring
makes CAR EASY
bort Company Uses New
Model on This Years
Pattern

Almost every automobilist today
recognizes a cantilever spring on
sight. This construction. which has
been generally adopted by those man
ufacturers who build the best. is IA
miliar to nearly all Of us, hut how
many drivers really know why a can
tilever spring makes a car ride easier
than other types of rear suspensions
Sales Manager Lowery, Of White
Bros. local bort distributor. re-
Gently made the above statement
which he accompanied with an inter-
esting explanation of the workings Of
the cantilever spring as he sees them
AN automobile engineer" says Mr.
Lowery. would probably describe a
cantilever spring with many techni-
cal terms, but this is little too deep
for the average man. My own idea Of
the cantilever spring is a spring that
is so anchored or attached to the
chassis. that the rebound Of the
spring is downward instead of up
ward. Thus the road shocks are en-
countered and the downward rebound
Of the springs tends to keep the rear
wheels OF the car on the ground. in
stead Of lifting them clear Of the road,
as is the case with the semi-elliptic.
three-quarter elliptic OF full-elliptic
spring This means not only easier
riding but less wear on the tires as
the rear wheels are kept on the
ground practically all the time.
THE length OF the spring has con-
siderable to do with its riding quail
ties and a long. wide spring is par
ticularly desirable. Mr. Planche, the
chief engineer and designer OF the
bort, has taken advantage OF this. in
the full cantilever springs that form
the rear suspension Of his car. and
he has made these very wide and 90
Is inches long
"This relation Of spring length TO
chassis and wheel base is excep-
tional, being greater than In any
other car at anywhere near the bort
price, and it has much to do with the
fine riding qualities OF this car"

Another advantage difficult TO hg-

overripe and rot fruit that must have

that are rendered worthless by de

speed Of the truck, or what such pro-

Many of the most important pfohts
