Most cars will take you anywhere you want to go; but will the tires you use? Quaker Tires are super-tires—built to stapd up to the grind of hilly roads or any other kind. You can begin a tour with con- fidence in your Quaker Tires and return safe and satisfied. Temperefi rubber offers wonderful resist- ance to cutting; it wears evenly and mighty slowly ; it will not crack, chip, nor pick out.

War O rders Rushed HE magnitude of the great war in which we are now engaged, has necessi- tated unusual preparation. Mighty forces are marshalling, great stores of food and munitions are being gathered, and the energies of the nation are focused on problems incident.to the war. At the very beginning of the war, the whole Bell System was placed at the disposal of the Government. No nation has entered the war with such a com prehensive and efficient telephone service. As our military estab! ishment grows, the demands of the Government upon the Bell System are bound to increase and always they must take precedencs over all others. Increased activity in commerce and industry as the result of larger demanda for food and munitions from our allies and for our own use, means more need of ¢ telephone service by private business. But private business must always be subordinated to the Government service Each individual American will co-operate in this patriotic service, and s mit cheerfully to inconvenience or delay in his telephone service when he und stands how vital it is that Government service shall take precedence over all else.
