NoRwALK TEST Is SEVERE.
Scissors shows Quality OF Rubber
Used I'm Tires.

"All bridges have been burned behind
us by featuring the scissors test for
ascertaining the quality Of rubber used
in tube" declares the general manager
of the local Norwalk service station
operated by James Martin. 1874 West
Fifty-second street.
an introducing and making the sells
sors test the manufacturers of Norwalk
tires have committed themselves to a
quality product, and any deviation from
the standard of quality now represented
would prove a catastrophe to their repu-
tation.
1.-THE scissors test reveals the quality
of rubber in a tube with precision. 1t is
made by taking piece OF tube one
quarter inch by three inches long and
stretching 1t to nine inches, three times
It's original length. II when slightly
shipped on the edge. It tears apart, the
rubber is inferior. If when shipped II
does not tear apart 1t is positive proof
OF quality.
"Dr. David Spence, directing chemist
at the Norwalk factory. Is the only man
in the world who Is In possession Of the
formula for producing the rubber used
in Norwalk tubes, His method of REIN
ing and Strengthening the rubber used
in these tubes is deep secret. The Nor
walk factory has been built around this
method. No more dramatic or final
proof of quality for any type Of mar
chandise than the scissors test OF Nor

MICHELIN TIRE TEST.
Examine Thickness of Tread When
~ Buytng, Urges Omcer.

Before buying tire," says r. B.
Brauwell, advertising manager of the
Michelin Tire Company, "every motorist
ought to put it to certain tests to deter
mine whether or not the tire Is likely to
give satisfaction"
One OF the most important of the
tests which Mr.. Bramwell recommends Is
20 determine the thickness OF the tire
tread. This is easily done. since most
tire dealers carry cross sections of the
various makes they have In stock All
that the motorist need do Ia to place
q ruler on the crbss section and measure
the tread thickness
1t Is obvious that, all else being
equal, the tire with q thick, wide tread
win wear longer than the tire with q
smaller. lighter tread.
Mr. Bramwell also points out that
Michelin tires have long been famous
for their heavy, sturdy construction
For instance, in the 34x4 Michelin Uni
versal Tread Non-Skid, the tread and
carcass OF the tire are one inch thick
In other words, one-quarter of the thick
ness of the entire tire Is a solid though
flexible mass of wear resisting rubber
and fabric.
Thickness of tread is an extremely
important feature of tire construction, as
II reduces to a minimum the danger not
only. OF blowouts but OF punctures as
well. II takes q long nail to puncture
n tire an. inch thick Ordinary taclss
obviously cannot puncture the tube in
side such q casiug.
