here at home, as they can secure in
Atlanta or elsewhere.
In speaking of the appointment of
Mr.. Rylander, MIR. Starnes said:
Goodyear service station dealers are
all picked men, selected because of
their standards and facilities for rem
dering prompt, courteous service.
THE one big aim of the Goodyear
service station is to make it easy for
Goodyear users to get Goodyear tires
and service.
Wherever you drive in mediun-size
towns, hamlets-everywher you will
find Goodyear service station signs to
let you know where you can get
prompt, courteous service.
Right here in Americus more Good
year tires are used than any other
brand. the great majority Of Americas
cars being equipped with them, which
according to reports of dealers and
users, are giving exceptional service.
"Americus motorists will now be
able to get such service right here at
home.
THE Americas Automobile Company
will carry complete stock Of cord
tires for high grade car owners; fabric
tires and heavy tourist tubes.
"They will see that you use tires of
adequate size, inspect your tires
weekly to prevent trouble, will advise
proper imitation, will carry tire saver
kits to enable you to get the car home,
should accident occur and will make
reasonable charges for time and la
tor. All these things they will do for
you to help you cut the tire bills.
These are modern methods-meth
ods of efficiency, enterprise and COM
munity services, and feel sure that
Americas motorists will find that it
pays big dividends to secure Goodyear
tires from this new service station, ra-
ther than from Atlanta or far distant
points.
