empire COMPANY
HAS new TOURADOUT
Solid Comfort Aim of This
Car Designed for Four
Passengers

Among the many attractive Empire
models brought out during the seven
years of the Empire Company's sue
cess no type has met with greater
approval and more instant success
than the new Tourabout, the latest
type four passenger roadster.
-Four passenger cars are attaining
greater popularity this season than
ever before. and It was 10 meet this
constantly increasing demand that the
Empire Tourabout was designed"
says F. A. Babcook. sales manager OF
the Empire Company. Throughout
its development solid comfort was
the aim of the Empire engineers The
result is an exceptionally roomy body
that carries four passengers COM
fortably with abundant space for each
one. This fact Is driven home when
II is realized that the rear seat of
this Tourabout is 81 inches wide with
exceedingly liberal leg room. AS
there are two doors at the front. en-
trance to the rear compartment is
attained by aislewaY between the di-
vided front seats.
ITO meet the popular demand a
car OF this type must be especially
snappy and attractive in appearance.
This latest Empire is distinctive and
beautiful in its body lines. In view
Of the increasing use Of roadsters for
general touring purposes as well as
city use, special facilities for carrying
luggage are afforded by the compart-
ment on the rear deck. AS the deck
cover Is one solid sheet of metal, the
back seat upholstery has been made
a separate section and hinged to
drop over the cushion. This also af-
fords entrance to a dust proof COM
partment sufficiently large to carry
two suit cases in addition to other
necessary touring accessories.
This attractive body is mounted on
the sturdy six cylinder chassic with
120-inch wheel base. This long
wheel base with perfected spring sus-
pension makes the car remarkable in
its easy riding comfort,

Great Demand FOR
These TRUCK TIRES

c. j. Welch. manager OF the solid
truck tire department OF the United
States Tire Company, said recently
that his department was simply
swamped with orders.
I'VE don't have 10 sell truck tires,
he said. MY big problem is in till-
inN orders rapidly enough. Our fac
tOries are running day and night. Or
ders are pouring in on us constantly
and 7 credit it all to the fact that our
new S00-ton vulcanizing process and
the new rubber compound, about
which ] cannot give details. have COM
bined to make our truck tires render
mileage so far beyond the ordinary
that everyone who hears OF their re-
markable services demands United
States truck tires, and will accept no
other"

storage BATTERY
SURVIVES PLUNGE
Furnishes Power for 80
Hours While Car is on
Bottom of River

A peculiar automobile accident re-
Gently frightened many residents OF
Houston. Texas, into believing that
some huge subterranean monster
was inhabiting the waters of Cedar
Bayou. body OF water near Houston.
However, il proved 10 be a wonder
full example OF the quality and sta
hility OF the Willard storage battery.
According to dispatches from Hous-
ton, local resident. Ike Levin, was
crossing on the ferry with his ma
chine. on a duck hunting trip. Some
body forgot to tie the boat at the other
side, and when Levin started his mo-
tor preparatory to driving Off, the
power from the rear wheels kicked
the boat backward and sent the ma
chine forward into the water. Levin
jumped hut the car sank into twelve
feet OF water.
Il was very early I'm the morning
and Levin had his lights burning. As
the car sank the water for a long DIS
tance took on a shimmery yellow look
that located the machines position
when they came TO remove il.
The water and air tight construc-
tion OF the battery prevented all
moisture from entering the cells and
kept the lights burning brightly from
Sunday morning until Monday night,
when the car was towed ashore.
This evidence backs up the claims
of the Willard people. who supply the
batteries used on So per cent. of
American makes of electrically equip
jed cars. that the construction of their
battery is not slighted to save in
production costs. II certainly is a
wonderful example OF what real quail

PERFECT PNEUMATIC TIRE.

For years truck engineers have re-
sorted to the eXpedient of putting two
tires side by side on the same wheel
to get the advantages OF pneumatic
equipment The Goodyear Tire and
Rubber Company has perfected a
large pneumatic tire which is rapidly
replacing this dual equipment The
single tire obviously does away with
