Be Convinced
Sometimes it's hard to convince a man that there
is a better way of doing something.
The first typewriter did not get a very warm re-
ception; rubber shoes were laughed to scorn when
Goodyear produced them; the man who invented
the umbrella was considered a harmless lunatic.
The people tried these things and they made
good.
Repairing shoes with machinery is different; it
has made good; it beats the old hand method like
the typewriter beats the pen.
You get a better, neater and quicker job. Try
it and see.

Goodyear Mileage—and
Tires for Small Cars

mileage for each dollar of cost than
a tire purposely made to be offered
at a sensationally low price; buy
the tire, not the price.
Built to deliver exceptional mileage
at exceedingly low cost, Goodyear
Tires, of the 30x3-, 30x3V2- and 31x4-
inch sizes, save inconvenience, dis-
appointment and money*
Their value results from the applica-
tion of Goodyear experience, expert-
ness and care to their manufacture in
the world's largest tire factory de-
voted to these sizes*

Maxwell or other car taking these
sizes, go to your nearest Service
Station for Goodyear Tires—for the
real worth and endurance that Good-
year builds into them*
