DriUerS
 Write Firestone
 Of Tire Mileage

The advance and progress made by the leading tire manufacturers of the country 4ring the last two years has brought about an interesting change Tn the figures of motor car maintenance cost and in tire mileage records Re- putable tire companies have educated their customers so thoroughly on what to expect of their tire equipment that the change in maintenance figures has scarcely been noticed and consequently has not been thoroughly appreciated by those who seek economy in tire buying by patronizing the best concerns.
 If you have owned a car for several years you will remember it was only few years ago that you considered yourself fortunate if you ran on the same tires for $500 or 1000 miles with out mishap. Then came a time when the standard manufacturers put guar antees of from 5000 to 1000 miles be- hind their products. You made a proud effort to beat the guarantees by a few thousand miles and if you succeed you probably wrote a letter to your dealer apprising him of your phenomenal achievement.
 Those figures that used to be phe- nomenal fade into insignificance com pared to present day mileage records. Nowadays one thinks of 10000 miles on a tire as an ordinary run, no more than should be expected of a good tire under average conditions.
 Many motorists travel 10000 to 13.00O miles on tires of late construction be-
 fore experiencing blowout trouble. Others often run from 14.000 to 1S,000.
 Tie size Of one's car and the type of
 roads on which one Is accustomed to
 travel have a bearing, of course, on
 these records.
 The handling of ones car enters into
 mileage records, too. A careful driver naturally gets many more miles out of his equipment than one who abuses his tires recklessly.
 Very frequently enthusiastic drivers
 write in to the factory to tell us of theil record runs," said an official of the l Firestone Tire and Rubber company
 recently. "The figures are not surpris. ing when one considers the improve. ment of manufacturing methods in thu 1 tire industry.
 | Constant experimenting and devel opment of the processes of the larger reputable concerns is responsible fol the increased mileage enjoyed by thu car owner. With the development o processes that figure in the actual con struction of tires the leading manufac turers have widened their producinl | capacity on such a scale that Quantit. production has helped to combat pric' increases"

Unique Garages Tn

Conceive of an attractive apartment house that has a handsome automobile showroom on the street floor and you will appreciate the setting in which most unusual service station is operat- ed" says Tn. van der Stempel of the firm of Naaml Venn Hamin of The Hague.
 MT. van der Stempel is in America for several months studying automo- tive construction at the Mitchell Mo- tors plant in Racine, Wis, this be- ing the line his firm sells in Holland.
 "Our group of garages is so well ar ranged and practical in operation that believe you good people in the United States will be interested in a brief de- scription," continues MT. van der Stem pei.
 Between the very attractive show windows is a driveway that leads to a spacious paved courtyard. This IS di- rectly in the rear of the showrooms and comprises a remarkable arrangement of more than 50 easily accessible fire proof garages, constructed of brick, each separated from its neighbor by concrete walls. Every owner has his individual key that unlocks a small compartment in front from which is released a handle that very esaily rolls up a fire proof steel shutter giving full width opening to the garage. Each garage contains two lockers, a specially made tire rack and a table. Besides a skylight, they have electricity and are steam heated.
 There is a water faucet at every sec- ond garage door. The monthly rental of these garages if 49 guilders. equiva- | lent to about $500 in United States gold for which is guaranteed at least

 Price Statements

Several weeks ago, I specifically called the publics attention to the fact that the manufacturers of high grade motor cars would not reduce their prices because they could not,'' said Edgar Apperson, president of Apperson Bros. Automobile company. Kokomo, Indiana.
 As a matter of fact, my statement was too mild for several more makers of high grade cars have since increased their prices. There are definite signs of others doing the same.
 High grade materials and skilled labor cost as much today as they did cost more. The sound, conservative houses with whom quality is first and foremost will not for one moment con- sider lessening the price of their pro- duct by lessening it's quality.
 For over 25 years, Apperson cars have held leading position in the in dustry This position has been gained by the high reputation of Apperson merchandise. Furthermore, this posi- tion will always be maintained.
