--The Tires with the NEW IDEA

The consistent extraordinary mileage records
of Traveller Tires have further proven TO users
what we know-that the best materials and
construction are put into Travellers. And their
chief use has been on country roads
Then. too, note the thick tread-over 50 per
cent more than ordinary tires. The tread on
Traveller Tires for Fords is the usual thickness
Of a fVe-inch tire. And five-inch Traveller
Tire has tread 10 inches thick. This gives
you extra mileage and reduces punctures to
minimum.
Look at the double breaker strip and the
quarter inch Of pure para rubber cushion stock
We have built this tire ~ be the hest on the
market and we believe weslave succeeded.

are built. The inner shape is fattened at the
tread originally. When air is pumped in the
Traveller Tire elongates Then when the weight
Of the car is put on it the Traveller comes back
to practically its original shape-no straining
or distortion. The air pressure is equalized
by the weight Of the car Travc r Tires run
as they are built-mnimizng friction and heat
and therefore wear.
We are convinced that this new principle Of
tire building is a very important step forward
in tire building and the use Of Traveller Tires
on hundreds Of thousands Of cars during the
past four years has further proven the con-
structon right.

from the North, do not particularly
relish for you to insist on how slow

bit, you will find that our slowness
is not a reality, but merely chimera
founded on transformation and preju.
dice you have been imbibing through
out the years, either consciously or
unconsciously. No matter VIVA. State
you come from, we can point to towns
In that State three or four times as
old as Lakeland with not half of the
improvements. In fact, you will find
few towns in the older States that
have anything like the modern and
up-to-date characteristics that Lake

are so slow, don't tell us-just show
us. We are always glad to have
leaders. Only, be sure you can keen
