craft were present. It was a busi- ;
ness meeting, and little else engaged .
the attention of the raeml) >rs than .
those things pertaining to the news- ]
paper business. '1 he cost of print
paper was taken up and the con
census of opinion was that about the
only way to meet that and other high
costs incident to the publication of a
newspaper would be to increase sub
scription and advertising rates. i
It was the pleasure of THE GLEANER
to spend Thursday evening with the
brethren, renewing old acquaint
ances and making new ones.
Thursday evening the social fea
ture of the meeting came off. It
was a banquet at the 0. Henry,
where the members were entertained, :
given complimentary to the Associa
tion by Greensboro's two excellent
daily papers, The News and the
Record. It was a fine spirit of hos
pitality and good fellowship which
prompted these papers to assume the
expense of such an elaborate spread.
During the evening excellent and
enjoyable speeches were made by
the speakers named below. It
would be a pleasure to give a synop
sis of the speeches, but -we must

Unusual Value-In Tires

Not only is characteristic Goodyear merit
conspicuous in Goodyear Tires for small cars
ftXSZ? \ but ordinarily the first cost is found to be
not greater than that of other tires; often it 11
** actually less.
fIOCV bmm\\ combination of unusual value in first
iJk&Ci W c ** Bt very low final cost, of course, is a •f 1
v&yj\ 11111 l result of Goodyear experience, expertness j! I •
aX\ IWM and care employed as insistently in the
KirSri lii making of 30x3-, 30x3and 31x4-inch tires
I f I as it is in the construction of the famous
I Goodyear Cord Tires used on the highest-
I I I priced automobiles.
JflflVV I f I For this reason more cars using these small
Mffl' I sizes were factory- equipped last year with
/I I Goodyear Tires than with any other kind. I g
