LOOK THE HOUSE OVER

Take a walk around your home and
property.
If you are the average home owner,
you'll find lots of places where re-
pairs, requirements or alterations
should be made. The steps are becom-
ing rickety-the electric wiring in the
basement and garage is in poor condi-
tion-new plumbing fixtures are need
ed-the roof is beginning to Leak
those hardwood floors for the living
room you've been thinking about so
long have never materialiZed-the
garden and lawn should be rejuven-
ated-the whole house could do with
a new paint job. The addition Of a
few labor-saving devices in the kitch-
en- would make your home more
pleasant and efficient place to live in.
It's probable that you've been think
ing of making such repairs and bet
terments as these for several years
and haven't had them done because
of nervousness as to the future, the
thought that you'd better keep your
money as intact as possible: That's
the kind of reasoning that has pro-
longed the depression. It's the kind
Of reasoning that throws men out of
work and makes it impossible for
them to find new jobs; the kind of
reasoning that causes basic industries
to run to the lowest production point
in decades.
Today you can obtain property-im-
provement, of what ever kind, for a
fraction of what it would have cost
you five or ten years ago. You'll prob
ably never be able to buy so cheaply
again-it's almost certain that prices
will rise sharply in the near future.
You'll be getting an amazingly big
construction dollars worth. And you'll
be putting men to work, putting mon
ey into payrolls and salary checks
and purchase orders. Don't forget
that jobs are cheaper than charity
and that only jobs make charity pos
sible.

To protect you from blow-outs, every new
Goodrich Safety Silvertown Tire has the
amazing new Life-Saver Golden Ply. This
new invention resists terrific heat-Fabric

don't form inside the tire. Blow-outs are

At gruelling speeds on the worlds fastest

Don't think that slower driving can save
you from blow-outs, either. Sustained
speeds-on longer trips-as low as 50 or

Safest anti-sEtid tread
The tread, too, is safer from skidding.
Scientific tests with leading makes of tires
prove that Goodrich Safety Silvertowns
have the most skid-resisting tread on the
road. Even on wet, slippery pavements,
the squeegee drying action of this famous
tread gives your car extra road-grip and
reduces danger of skidding to a minimum.
Isn't this the kind of tire you want for
your car? A tire that gives SO much greater
protection yet costs no more! Put
Goodrich Safety Silvertowns on your car
without delay and have real protection be-
tween you and the road.
Important: The New Goodrich Safety
Silvertowns, giving you protection from
blow-outs at high speeds, are stock dres
and should not be confused with specially
constructed racing tires built to last only
a few hundred miles.
