Margaret Turnbull many of the events
of which occur in Belgium during the
present war. The photo drama does
not undertake to show any actual bat
tie or life in the trenches, but it does
provide a truly wonderful and very
accurate picture OF the sufferings of
the refugees and the work in the
emergency hospitals conducted by the
Red Cross. These scenes are all le-
ultimately part of the story and should
have special value in emphasizing
the unpoetic horrors of modern war;

Don't Throw AWAY
Your Worn Tires

You can get from 1000 to 5000 miles
more service out of them, for a frac-
tion of their first cost.
We make one good tire out of two
old ones, using the same principle in
building them together as is used in
building a new one. Besides we re-
inforce them with four rows of stitch
ing. We have a Singer machine made
especially for this work, which makes
a double lock stitch, uses a heavy linen
thread and a needle that does not cut
the fabric.
Bring US all your old tires, no mat
ter how bad. If they are not worth
rebuilding we will take them in on
one that is. In fact We'll most GER
tainly show you how TO get more miles
for your S.
