KEEPING TIRES UP TO-DATE
Diamond Distributor Says That Tire
Styles Constantly Undergo

ROAD WEAR is THE REAL TEST

1T Ii easy 70 understand how auto
mobiles are kept up-to-date. but as for
tires few stop to consider that their
style constantly changes. too said
Henry Nygaard, distributor Of Diamond
tires IN Omaha. The important differ
ence. however, Is that style IN tires
means service. more service and still
more service. And the place where sery-
Ice is put into tires Is not primarily IN
the factory. hut. strange as II may SEEM
Won the road. That Is the court Of last
resort for the tire maker. and every
automobile owner who returns worn
casing to the factory has thereby become
n Judge Of tho value Of present methods
Of tire manufacture. And the place
whore these judgments arc collected from
far and Vide is the adjusting department
n the Diamond factory.
"Go into the office Of the head Of the
adjusting department and you Will find
tires IN all conditions Of wear and abuse
These are tho pick Of the lot, the choic-
est specimens Of ruin, for they have

OF all to the consumer. the price Of tires
has been cut in fractions. A tire that
used to cost $50 now costs $50. and the
remarkable thing about this Is that the
$40 tire gives more mileage than the old
$50 tire.
Whether or not future developments
in tire building will be as extensive az in
the past remains to be seen. but what
ever improvements there are will be
made through the judgment Of the con-
gunner as presented at that frequent
quiet conference between the factory

concern my boy. His father and 1
wanted to send him off to college next
year, but he says he won't go. My son
telephones the girl every night that she
doesn't telephone him and they talk
nonsense for an hour or more. They
write each other letters, too. let alone
seeing each other every day at school
end practically every night L am
desperate My husband and 1 have
tried entertaining the girl and saying
nice things about her to make our boy
sick of her. When we saw that only
pleased him we began to criticize her
and that made him resentful and all
the more determined to go with her.
Now we have gone back to our old
course and endure her for supper at
piano banging for a whole evening.
viii you please tell me what to do?
A MOTHER.
Appear to admire the girl and be
very fond of her, but every time you
have a chance makes fun of her faults.
Laugh the way she does, sit in the
position she takes most often, notice
her mannerisms and caricature them
in your own actions. But don't appear
to criticize her for a minute. Love
her with all your heart. OF course all
this must be done when she is not
around. Be courtesy itself when she is
there.
Such a course may act quickly and
your son may tire of her in a few
weeks time, but again he may not.
