Worn Tires Are
Source of Grief

There comes Il time in the life
OF every tire when the motorist
who bought it looks IL over and
specnlates as to just how much
farther it will travel, kicks It
couple of times, and, nine times out
of ten, decides 1t Is good for addi-
tional hundreds OF miles," says Mrs.
Hensley of the Hensley.Erickson
Tire company.
Whatever these few additional
miles may be is certainly offset by
the uncertainty of driving with tires
which are liable to give way at any
time, so why take chance. With
new tires you always have the
satisfaction Of knowing that when
you start out you are going to reach
your destination unless something
quite unforeseen happens.
The element of danger in using
badly worn casing is apparent and
yet motorists persist in driving Just
as fast on a tire which they know
is liable to blow out as if they had
new tires. When the blowout does
occur and it generally does when
you are speeding, serious accident
may result.
Now after tire has given YOU
service fully up to all you expect and
can reasonably ask, where is the
economy in trying to get that "a to
4S cents worth for the extra few
hundred miles while taking chances
on having pleasure trip spoiled by |
an ultimate blowout or of missing an
engagement if you are on business
call"

Cut Prices to-
Pre-Wdr LeUeI

Announcement of the reduction of
prices on the Overland has practi-
cally set the local automobile realm
agog Many have declared it TO be
one of the most smashing price re-
duetions in the downward trend of
automobile prices.
The completeness with which the
manufacturers have smashed their
former prices shows an earnest de.
sire to come down to the old price
level and to get business bac kon the
sound basis of several years ago.
The real values now offered in the
Overland cars will best be seen by
comparison of the new prices with
the old prices of several seasons
ago.
No more radical cut has been
made in automobile circles and
when the extra values and many i'm
provements and refinements in the
HSW lllOutl vi dic COllnlutlSu IL
is easily seen that the Overland of
today offers a great deal more motor
value than the car of 1917, and yet
will be marketed at the same low
figure.
First news Of the price reduction
was received last week by e. c.
Wagner, local Overland dealer
'The price reduction policy of the
company is entirely in line with the
trend of the times" said Mr.. Wag-
ner. eve are doing our part to
bring business conditions and price
levels back to the old days. Our |
price cut is a genuine one. 1t cuts
off everything possible with practi-
cally all of the profits as WELL But it |
will offer real values in motor trans
portation at the most remarkably
low first costs ever afforded the
motoring public"
