Wanted me to run an item on how Lem Martin's dog had raided his chickens again, and ought to be put away by law. I told him: "Lem was in on Saturday.

MORE 1?S VOR^ There's EXTRA VALUE in the Tire that OUTWEARS PREWAR TIRES It's time to measure what you get for what you pay. No matter what you buy, the measure of true worth is in performance . . . how long it will serve you. In tires there are several yardsticks . . . mileage, protection against bruising and road shocks, resistance to skidding. In all of these, the B.F.Goodrich Silvertown gives you extra value. Its wider, flatter tread which covers more road area, spreads the wear more evenly. The more tire in contact with the road also means more tread to grip ... to prevent skidding. Be neath this better tread Is ? 35% stronger cord body built with sturdier cords and more of them to give better resistance to road shock and bruising. All this Extra Value adds up to today's big tire buy . . . the postwar B. F. Goodrich Silvertown ? the tire that OUTWEARS PRE WAR TIRES. 10 IM-U Burrell Motor Company Phone 123 Franklin, N. C.
