THE GOODRICH REPRESENTATIVE IN
TEXAS MAKES TEST OF STRENGTH
OF THE INNER TUBES.

n. l.. Parr, a salesman OF The Il. r.
Goodrich Co, ut Waco Texas, was talk
ing with three motorists one morning. As
often happens, the motorists were indulg-
ing in q little bidding n well rs in some
ofthand comment upon tires, and inner
tubes.
'Oh" said one Of them. ''all inner tubes
are Just rubber. They don't have to have
any strength III them. What work DO they
have to do}"
This got Parr to thinking, and he deter
mined on an object lesson.
There were four ears 1T the door. and
their owners or drivers nj his elbow.
To these he said:
"Boy~, how strong do you think this
Goodrich Brown Tube actually isl

means hauling three ears on the first tube)
