NEXT YEARS FAIR

II is pertinent to inquire: what
should be done about fair for
next year,"
There can be, after seeing the
crowd which turned out at the Fair
Ground Thursday, no denying that
the people OF the county want a
Fair, and that they enjoy It's pos
sibilities as a meeting place.
II is further evident to one who
watches and listens to the remarks
that are made on every hand as
the spectators pause and examine
the various exhibits. that they are
studying them and are appreciative
Of the merits or demerits OF exhibits.
while standing in the Main build

ter noon the writer saw neighbors
from the upper county greet each
other and stop for visit We could
not help hearing one neighbor re-
mark:
I'VE expected you would be down

lowed a list OF the folks this woman
had encountered while here az the
Fair.
There was evident pleasure In the
meeting and In the fact that so
many opportunities were thus afford

from near their home but from
other parts OF the county.
This was but one case Multiply
this by even a hundred or two, and

offers can be attained. From Just

separation-what's back OF all
this tire trouble, anyway
Since the first tire was made,
the big problem has been to
produce a rubber that could
stand the grind and strain Of
the road. Minor improvements
were made in rubber compounds.
Yet the basic weakness was
never understood.
The Thermoid Rubber Com
pany set two practical tire
builders and two chemists at
work on this problem. These
experts learned that the weak
ness in ordinary tires is due to
the uneven mixing Of the pure
rubber gum with the necessary
strengthening materials. They
found that in this mixing process
millions Of minute ''lumps" are
formed-every lump" q weak
spot in the tire.

"That same tire

Science discovers how unseen 'ilumps" in the
rubber cause weakness in ordinary tires

Remarkable new compound
Studying this problem further,
the Thefmoid scientists perfected
Crolide "a rubber compound
that reduces "lumpy" formations
TO a minimum-that eliminates
premature tire troubles. This
even texture rubber does not
weaken with the stretching and
straining that goes on inside q
tire in use.
Crolide Compound Is today
used exclusively in the manufac-
ture OF Thermoid Tires. Either
the Cord or Fabric type gives
maximum mileage under all road
and weather conditions.
We have compared the Thermoid
Tire carefully, point by point, with
other tires on, the market today and
we confidently believe that no other
tire compares with Il for service and
durability.
You are invited 20 call and see these
new tires for yourself-also the famous
