And Give Puncture-Proof Service

Wehavej joined the ranks of over 1900
progressive dealers who are offering
puncture-proof tire service and a 50%
economy in tire expense to every mo-
torist and we are proud to announce
it.
Less than three years ago Charles c.
Gates, E M, invented the tire which
gives this service and economy and is
nowrevolutionizing the whole tire busi-
ness.

You, too, are entitled t. this service and
saving, and we are prepared to give it

motorists have, "Why didn't someone
think of this before?"

George Washington, the truthful.

Many Publications Died During

publication during 1918; of these S64

LEGATIONS of other classes. The balance

The reasons for the decrease are high
cost of paper and other materials,
scarcity of competent help, increase of
wages, too low rates for subscriptions,
advertising and job printing, and the

in packing away clothes. Measure the
folding of all garments to the length
of trunk or chest into which they are
to be packed.
After the skirt is laid into the trunk
more pads of paper, preferably light
tissue paper, should be placed in the
