And Why They Are Exceptions

Worn Miller Tires are often exhibited with
some sign like above.
Countless letters also reach US telling such
mileage tales.
These are very pleasing. But we don't
want users in general to expect miracles from
Millers. -

What Our Tests Show

We run tires at our factory ten million
miles year to make these service tests.
These are radical tests. Tires are run con-
stantly, night and day, and under heavy load.
We want quick comparisons.
On our testing machines Miller Cords
average $4,000 miles, and Fabrics about
half that.
But these are not mileage records. We
are running Miller Tires

Why Mileage Varies

A Cord Tire gives vastly greater
service than Fabric Tire.
An oversize tire will vastly excel
a tire that is undersize. Care, load
and roads affect tire service greatly.
Millers are uniform tires. That is
a major reason for their supremacy.
But uniform tires win vary with
conditions.

Few additional dismissals will oc-

There was a little Curry of ap-
prehension amongst some OF the
clerks who feared further dis
missals, but because of the volume
of work still to be done l do not
anticipate any further reduction in
the force until the end of the year,
except by voluntary resignation.
