Mohawk Tires Are
Making and Keeping
Friends in District

The best proof of the worth of
goods a merchant sells and the value
of advertising them is best shown by
the number Of customers who, having
tried any article once or twice, re-
turn to make further purchases of the
same product.
This is the belief of w. c. Grubb,
of the Western Vulcanizing Company
local distributor of Mohawk tires.
The "old'' customers are the ones
who really build up demand for Mo-
hawk tires said Grub yesterday.
".Of course we are anxious to intro
duee Mohawks to motorists who have
never tried them, but the man or wo-
man who has used Mohawk tires and
knows their worth, is really the
steadiest customer. Any mOtorist
who knows Mohawk tires seldom fails
to buy anything but Mohawks. He
tells their worth to other motorists
who may never have equipped their
cars with them and, pretty soon, we
have new friends for Mohawks who
soon become old friends 1t doesn't
take a Mohawk tire long to prove its
worth and that is why we have Sc
many repeater orders for them {;
anyone who is acquainted with this
tire always wants to keep up the ac-
quaintance.'

Daly-Simplex Rims, which were in

Objectionable features of motoring
fear of tire trouble. This patent
shortens the time required to change
tires, as well as doing away with the
hard work, profanity, family scraps
and soiled clothes.
The simplicity of this patent rim
is so great that women rchildren
can change tires as quickly and cas-
lily as the average man. This rim
also does away with pinched tubes
wrinkled flaps, bruised fingers ant
dirty hands, and takes only fifteen
seconds to change.
There is nothing to wear out, or gel
out of order, so the life of the rim is

Diving Soldiers 2,0O0-Nlile Trip Home

to obtain some rest from the eternal
pounding and swaying of the train.
Hicks was only sixteen years old
when he enlisted in the American
army in 1918. He was sent to Siberia,
and it was there that the cold and
privation that he endured sowed the
seeds of the dread disease. Later he
was ordered to the Philippine islands
and then invalided back to the United
States. He spent some time in hos
pital in San Francisco and was then
moved to Denver in the hope that the
climate would be beneficial to him.
Four weeks ago his father, Murray
o. Hicks, died in North Adams. His
grief-strieken mother wanted to see
her boy, but circumstances prevented
her from making the trip to Colorado.
so the lad made up his mind that he
would go to his mother. Leave of alb
sence was granted him from a Denver
hospital, and physician was assigned
to accompany him during the trip.
When he was carried from the train
he was almost in state of collapse,
but his spirit was stronger than his
body and he kept up until he was
brought to the little home and greeted
his mother.
