The Brunswick idea is to
give all that is possible, all that
anyone can give all that any
factory, cost can buy.
s The result is a tire that is
winning friends the nation
over. In The Brunswick mo-
florists expect the utmost
and get it. Never has a tire
had greater appeal to the man
who appreciates real merit.
Try one Brunswick. See Ii

here is more for your money.
One Brunswick, we are GER
tain, will convince you that
you'll never be satisfied until
you have all Brunswicks.

of the United States Dis
trlct Court of Ohio, dismissiQg an in
dictment against A. Schraders Son,
Inc, on the ground that contracts
made by Schrader with tire makers
and jobbers for the handling of its
goods fixed the prices at which the tire
maker might sell to the jobber, retailer
and consumer and the jobber might
sell to the retailer and consumer
The government contended that the
entering into of these contracts was
an offence against the Sherman anti
trust law. The court referred to the
fact that under the decisions in the
Colgate case q manufacturer has the
right absolutely to refuse to deal with
any one who does not maintain the
prices indicated by him. The Schrader
company is engaged in the manufact-

Check Up ON Pressures
And Save Tire Bills

"A constant check OF the air pressure
is one of the secrets OF big automo-
bile tire mileage. AS often as once a
week car owners should test with
gauge the pressure in all four tires.
More tires are prematurely destroyed
through under intlafltion than from any
other cause. Although It will be some
trouble to take the weekly air tests it
will pay handsomely in the long run.
Motorists who follow this rule will
soon be able to trace and remedy the
causes OF lost air pressure. When
tire loses from two and a half to
three pounds regularly. they viii. IN
most cases, find that there is some
thing wrong with the valve ard that
the insertion of new valve plunger
will stop the air loss.
When the pressure drops as much
as FIVE pounds right along the trouble
is usually due TO bad spot in the
tube.-B. F. Goodrich Rubber Com
