Paris is the worlds modern Baby
lon," Achille Segard. a French writer,
proposes that a large organization be
formed Immediately To introduce
American tourists into French homes
this summer and show them the real
Partisan families that they never see
in the Jazz-band cafes.
I'VE all know many Americans who
think that they know Paris because
they have seen undraped women at
the Folies-Bergere or have visited
the Moulin Rouge or the restaurants
OF Montmarte." writes Segard. There
are many others who believe that the
beautifully dressed girls who leave
their tables In the ultra shlonable
cafes to dance with handsome young
strangers are merely daughters from

- Opinions about
Tires should be Weighed
as we'll as Counted

The opinion in favor of u. S. Tires
is not based solely on the number OF
them in use.
Great as that number is, it is due to
something besides clever arguments.
Thousands of motorists today are
putting up with second choice tires
because forced production is inconsis-
tent zvith y. S. standard of quality.
The United States Rubber Com
pany's enormous investment greater
than that of any concern in the in
dustry-has always been aimed solely
at quality.
Building tire first and a market
afterwards. Thinking Of the indi-
viduaI user instead Of the number Of
sales.
One of the reasons, perhaps, why
there is now a scarcity Of y. S. Tires.
= s
If the time ever comes when u. S.
Tires can be supplied to all, or nearly
all, of the people who want them,
they will still have more to recommend
them than merely the largest following.

 The method of raising the notes is different from that of other counter feiters in this city, who clipped the corners from $t0 bills and pasted them on those of smaller denominations This system, however, was so crude that it was an easy matter to detect the defects on close inspection.
