A police school at the Univer sity of North Carolina! And not? There is no agency that so vitally touches the well bei»u£ of the state as the police depart ments of the various cities. Front time to time, the entire Ameri can police system is under attack. It is compared unfavorably wilt the police system of Great Brit ain. Its faults—and many of them are obvious—are pointed out it convincing detail. Yet the marvel, particularly ir the smaller cities, is that the po lice departments are as efficien as they are. There is no discount ing the fact that there is rooo for improvement but what func tion of government doesn’t chal lenge improvement? The police institute at Chap* Hill, the first in the South, is i start in the i-ight direction. Inoi dentally, the good results of ii will come as much from the pub' lie’s changed conception of a pj, liceman’s function as from the im provement within police depart ments.—News and Observer. “Then you deny,” said the mag istrate, “that you were rude :< the policeman when he asked ti see your license?” “Certainly, sir.” replied the mo torist. “All I sai<j was that fron what I could see of him I wa sure his wife would be happier a a widow.” Why Should I Buy a Goodyear Tire?

Here’s why: \ Its shirdy carcass is made of .Nupet twist, which means fewei faDric (allures and less cue chanties on the road. 2 its new design of tread gives the best traction and car control evei afforded by an automobile tire. 3 Its tenacious ability to grip the road gives the greatest possible degree of safety. ^^ncreased area of road contact and added All Weather blocks insure slow, even tread wear and greater satisfaction to the user. 5 Quietness and smooth running are also made certain by the new design of tread 6 This new Goodyear is admittedly the World’s Most Beautiful Tire. The best Proof of all this is the tire itself. Come in today and see this masterpiece, the Goodyear All-Weather Balloon > W. T. Holland’3 Garage Smilthfield, N. C.—Phone 138-J i
