Racing bugs who | Hike statistics have since figured that | his wheels were revolving at the rate of 25 times a second. All others | agreed he wat going some. He had traveled 183 miles when— crack! Something had snapped sharply, and Art found himeelf zig zagging and scrambling crazily along the road. He put on the brakes and stopped in time to save himself and some bewildered spectators from be. ing wrecked. Racing along ahead of the ma chine, and fast fading from view, was the rim and tire of one of his wheels untouched by the accident but sheared cleanly from the steel spokes. As soon as he recovered from the spill Klein looked about and saw his right rear wheel rimless and tireless but the hub and spokes intact Some distance farther along the road the remains of the whee! were picked up—tire fully inflated, without a scratch and perfectly mounted It was the firgt time motor race spectators had witnessed such a freak | performance SAYS: ain’t no excuse fer a know I hed a batt’ry in oe —the most remarkable Storage Battery ever built Twenty Months all makes of batteri Seattle, Washington AUTOMOBUMMING ADVENTURES the track made whereby the speedway officials can assure motorists of a gas sup-| ply in Tacoma to return to their homes on the day of the races, This Mmennage is being sent out over west ern Washington so motorists may not fear being stranded in Tacoma on the day of the races.

Competent and experienced, even as the seasoned warriors of my ancestral tribes, they have been taught to build tires the “Savage” Way---the way modern science has shown to be the best. My words are true words when I say that our builders of tires are master craftsmen whose hearts are filled with pride because they are producing a superior article; their pride is second only to that of the squaw in her first-bort son. The best that is in these mighty men of the tire world is expressed in our big, handsome “D” Type tire.

And besides, there are lynx-eyed inspectors, as -alert as an elk at mating time, who make sure that nothing is allowed to pass that is not absolutely right.
