Ills prediction came true" says
George stowe. manager Of the local
Chalmers branch. "but in the case " the
purchasers of Chalmers cars there was
no sudden jump In the price. but only a
moderate increase to partially meet the
increased price of materials. Not only
that. but We protected our customers in

weeks before 1t was put into effect.

A. Tisdale. who handles the Franklin at
1s+s Broadway.
AS early as 1905 the Automobile
Club of America recognized the infu-
ence which fuel economy would have

NOTED tests to show the relative adj

formances of this kind. Resides, almost
every local contest then staged by vari-
GUS automobile clubs included an award
for lowest gasolene consumption.
From the first no car has been more

new fashion ,in tires when they first
announced the Goodrich black tread
tires. Another reason why black troads
are SO popular is because of the Won
derful endurance of silyertown tires in
races and on the roads everywhere dur
ing the last two years. Black treads
were originated by Goodrich on silver
town tires. The black barefoot rubber
used in Goodrich tires clings to the
pavement. for the same reason that the
sole Of your bare foot clings to slip
perry surfaces.
When the clutch Of your car is thrown
In. and the wheels begin to turn, with

rubber stretches between the outer sur

it's inner surface which Is cemented to
the cotton fabric.
That wonderful stretchy quality thus
forms a sort of Spring which heavily
reduces the grind" the FRACTIONAL heat

which is death to tires. 1t also eases the
strain on the rubber adhesive between

that traction wave which. In running.
tends to separate the several layers of

Goodrich tires thus give their maxi
mum traction with minimum friction.
And this in turn results in maximum
mileage from every ounce OF material
used.
