' j Built to be relatively as superior to ordi- nary tubes as Goodyear Cord Tires are to ordinary tires, Goodyear Heavy Tourist Tubes are well worth insisting upon. i Their initial cost is no more than the price you are asked for tubes of less merit—why risk costly casings when such sure protec: tion’ is available? eo LLTS 1S, ~*~ auoo ‘ oops YEAR Tounmser LOU BES
