Keep Up the Quality
THE manufacturer Of a quality pro-
duct be it automobile tires. wirl-i-gig
or whatnots, has little to worry about

dad on which his success IN the past

marked eT1OfL 70 MAINTAIN q low price
ut the expense Of quality. This of course
is dangerous, or poor quality is remem-

When goodwill suffers business goes bad.

enduring asset IN all business, if pro-
