The Whole Secret of
A Better Tire
Simply a Matter of the Makers Policies

To ascertain what each maker
offers one must analyze and test
some 200 tires-as our laboratories
have done.
Then it is matter of combining
the best features and building ac-
cording to the highest standards.
Once you try a Brunswick you
will understand how we have built
model tires, regardless of factory
expense.
Yet Brunswick Tires cost you the
same as other like-type tires. Our
saving is on selling cost, through
our nationwide organization.
We realize that you expect more
from Brunswicks, and we assure
you that you get it. ONE Bruins
wick will tell you the story.
And then you'll want ALL
Brunswicks. No other tire, youth
agree, gives so much for your
money.

This you will realize you
try Brunswick-that super-tire
is possible only when the name
certif1es that the maker is follow
ing the highest standards.
For tire making is chiefly a mat
ter OF standards and policies-cost
plus care. Any maker can build
good tire if he cares to pay per-
fection's price.
All men know Brunswick stand
ards, for Brunswick products have
been famous for "a years.
Formulas, fabrics and standards
vary vastly in cost. Reinforce
ments, plies and thickness are a
matter of expense. And these vari-
atoms affect endurance. 1t rests
with the maker how far he wishes
to go-how much he can afford
to give.
For there are no secrets nor pat
ents to hold one back.

Born in Youngston, Ohio, and a

Previous to the war he played the

Following that he accepted a position
as an investigator for the Curtis Pub

waste and extravagances among the
shipyard owners and employees. 1t
was while in this position and en-
ployed in the Union Iron Works, San
