one housekeeper reports who ex-

use and the care of each appliance
and have followed these carefully,
is a typical report, while others

We should like to add here that

also expect to pay for necessary
servicing and upkeep. All equip

times a complete oVerhauling.
This must be paid for.

HANNA SHOWS GAIN

Makes Annual Report to
Board of Directors of Capt.

The increasing popularity of the
motor bus as a mode of transportation
in Washington is shown in the annual
report of John II. Hanna. president
of the Capital Traction Company,
which was submitted today to it's
board of directors.
Comparisons between 1925 and 1926
as cited in the report reveal that the
company carried 514,S62 more pas
sengers on it's buses last year than
in the preceding year, but that it suf-
fered loss of 1,194, 254 passengers on
its cars. The total number of revenue

moving vehicles
Touching ON the request that cars
be required to stop at points where
the car lines cross boulevard streets,
Mr.. Hanna said that while the com
pany has complied in some instances,
it feels that its chartered right that
street cars should be given the right
of-way over other vehicles is vital
and that the company is looking out
for the interests of the large number
of people who use it's lines.

This plan was devised for the
man who wants to buy quality
tires but who finds it inconvenient
at times to spare the required
cash.
Everyone could pay cash for
tires if tires were all they had to
pay for, but many other necessi-
ties must be had, and sometimes
we run short and either buy some
thing cheap and inferior or go
without.
This is the way our plan works:
We require no specified down
payment and no stipulated time
for accounts to run. Simply Sc
lect the tires you need and tell us
how you want to pay for them
and watch us fit our plan to your
wishes.
