the helpless and under-privileged.
The aid to the aged program,
Mrs. Boat said, "means that those
who have attained the age of 65
will not be forced to depend upon
the charity of relatives or relega
tion to a poor house."
Of the dependent children
phase she said:
"Where the family is self-re
specting and child-loving, keeping
children in their own homes, has
decided advantages. It give# the
family a definite measure of se
curity and the opportunity of
planning ahead during the child's
growing years; it offers that sense
of solidarity and of belongipg, all
of which means a solid bedrock
for character and good citizen
ship—and in the end it is cheap
est for the State. In other words,
it means a home for every child
and that love and security which
a home provides.
"It has been said with consid
erable truth," she continued,
"that in spite of all that has been
Written and said on the subject of
child care and rights of children,
there are still agencies, institu
tions and individuals. . . . who
dispose of children, body and soul,
with little more thought to con
sciousness than they would give
! to the disposal of surplus kit

"Children are not chattels to be
disposed of without the least con
sideration or compunction, no
matter what their status may be,"
she said. "They are our future
citizens, and we should consider
it not only a duty but a privilege
to aid them in every possible way
in order that they may grow to
maturity in a natural manner,
reflecting credit upon themselves,
their communities and their na
tion."

THE GREATEST TIRE
EVER MADE TO SELL
AT THESE LOW PRICES
OOME In, examine a cross Section cut from a Firestone Standard Tire, then
examine the deep-cut, non-skid tread and see how much extra value you
get. You will quickly understand why more and more car owners are
equipping their cars with these tires. You will agree that never before have
you seen so much quality, so much built-in mileage and so much safety at so
little cost. You will find the ,
Firestone Standard Tire is made
safer from blowouts with the
Firestone patented process of
Gum-Dipping. The patented
construction of two extra layers
of Gum-Dipped Cords under the
tread protect against punctures
and bind the tread and cord
body into one inseparable unit.
The wider, flatter tread with
more rubber on the road will
give you longer mileage and
greater protection against
skidding. Firestone is able to give
you all these extra values because
Firestone Standard Tires are
built in such large quantities that
great savings are made in
production.
