WILL INSIST UPON
CLEANING UP THE TOWN

That the early campaign along the
line OF cleaning up the city Of Je-
rome. launched a month or two ago
did not fully accomplish its purposr
mas become manifest to those who
have been watching developments.
This subject has been seriously dis
cussed by the city council at It's
hrst session. and has also been gi,.
on serious consideration by the Je-
rome club. It seems that the mat
ter comes more properly under the
jurisdiction OF the jerome club than
the city council although if it iA
necessary the latter will pass OrdiA-
ances to bring about the desired ac-
.tion Of The property oWuers.
DO not understand by this item
that jerome is a filthy. untidy town.
for it is not. but those at the hcat
oil the municipality are determined
to make ii one Of the cleauest
towns in the United States
1t is suggested that the busiuc-
men donate small sums for thc par
hase OF prizes to be given for tho
best kept lawn. ,he cirauest beck

LIFE OF TIRE RESTS ON

Ability OF Tube to Hold Air More
Essential Than Its Tensile
Strength.

What the heart is 70 the body. the
tuba Is TO the tire"-is one way of
tubes from the standpoint OF tire mile
age. judging from the stress placed
upon tube quality by ono OF Akron's
leading tire men. Just as the useful
ness Of the body ends with the stop
ping OF the heart, so the tire becomes
useless when the tube ceases to func-
tion properly.
Furthermore. 1t is pointed out that
the motorist should be much more con-
cerned with the tubes ability TO hold

Within the past year some large truck opera

them with Stewart trucks. They pocketed

But they regard that more than offset by Stewart

Note How Stewards
End These Faults

Stewart design disposes Of more than 600
weighty parts by combining their functions in
few mechanisrns of great strength. Most of this
weight comes from the inspiring portions That
means less wear on tires and greater riding ease
Also materials and assembling costs are saved
You get the saving IN the 5000 to $500 lower cost
The value of such simplicity is shown in
reduction in operating costs, and in main
tenance. But most important Of ali it gives
practical freedom from repairs. That accounts
for the Stewart records in longest continuous

service with Stewards.
