New Goodyear Tire
Announced By Dealer
Important to the owners of uot-sonew
automobiles, who may be thinki
11K about new tires to Insure them*
sieves trouble-free weekend holiday
trips, Is announcement by CurloilVU
Motor Company, local Goodyear dealers,
of the company's new all-Auierlcuii
(Ire, priced within the reach of
70 per cent of the mujorlty market of
users.
In discussing the the, Mr. Clyburn
said: 'Mi's full-size and bears a lifetime
guarantee wtlimit time or mileage
limitations. These are the sizes:
i 6.00-16, f*26-17;6.50-17 and 4.75-l?|
fc.00-19, so you can see that it Is tallormude
to tit u lot of cars now operating
for several years.
"We are mighty pleased to have it,
completing the Goodyear line we handle
and enabling us to (111 anybody's
car oi\ truck tire needs, no matter in
what price class he wants to buy or
what bis driving demands may be." |
Smart in appearance, the new AllAmerican
has the sumo high-carbon,
high-tensile steel wire for bends us is
used in all Gooyear passenger *?fr
I tires. Its body is made with low-|
stretch supertwist cord, which has even
higher tensile strength than did
quality tires of two years ago, Mr. )
Clyburn pointed out. In addition,
there Is a double cord breaker of high
tensile strength to give greater protection
against bruises. lt*
Tread compounds are of time-test*ed
reputation, providing long time
abrasion resistance, while the tro^il
design is new and known as multiplerib,
assuring long, even wear, easy
steering and side slip protection.
At the same time every possible
economy has been effected tn manufacture
without sacrificing essential
safety factors, summarized Mr. Cly- 1
burn, so the tire should prove popular
with people who want the product
of a recognized manufacturer at lowest
possible initial cost.
Film friends in Hollywood, Cal., believe
David NIven, handsome BVitishAmerican
screen star, may be among
British soldiers in Norway. Niven,
member of an army family, left a film
career last fall to take a lieutenancy
with British forces.

Gyp Artist Fails To
Make Hit at Aiken
' A ^fyp artist struck falloW soil wheu
he visited Aiken recently, for a check
up among the local drug stores reveals
the fact that this confidence
man failed to harvest any cash "crop" ]
from among his prospective victims.
The Aiken Standard and Review oflift
was also "houored" wjth the gentleman's
presence; ho received plenty
of courtesy, but nothing of value, f
Posing as a representative of the
Herb Julce-Penol Cto., Inc., of Danville.
Va., a man giving his name as
H. D. Bowman, called at this pewspa-j
per office, inquired about advertising i
rates, and said that he was arranging
for a special sale and demonstration
I of Pow-O-Lin, a well known remedy, j
He said the contract would be forwarded
this newspaper by a prominent
advertising agency.
During his visit to Aiken on several
occasions, and asked permission to
use the typewriter, requesting somp
of this newspaper's printed stationery J
for use in handling his correspond-1
ence. He was supplied with .blank i
white writing paper, but no printed (
letter heads. The reason for declin-1
Ing the use of the paper's own writ- j
ing material was a precaution, as it is
a common praotlce among confidence
men to write their own recommendations
and orders for merchandise on
other people's statibnery.
While the Standard and Review had
never experienced any ."flim-flam"
losses, it Was thought best not to per- j
mit a stranger, no matter who he.
represented himself to he, to use the
newspaper's printed stationery. Itj
now develops that this exorcise |of
precaution, was a most fortunate one. !
The gentleman in queetion, tried to '
make special deals with Aiken druggists
and collect cash in advance. And
advised the druggists that an adver-1
tising contract had been made with
this newspaper.
The Southeastern Drug Journal of!
Atlanta, has published a warning to
all druggists. The warning was supplied
this trade Journal by secretary- '
treasurer, J. M. Plaxon of the South
Carolina Pharmaceutical Association, j
The warning to druggists reads as
follows:
"Posing as a representative of the j
Herb Julce-Penol Co., Inc., of Dan- j
ville, V}T~a~rnan giving his name as
R. I). Bowman, selling Pow-O-Lin, has
I been defrauding South Carolina drug|
gists on a demonstratlon-advertisoI
rnent "deal." This man states he Is
opening up a new territory, and If the
I druggist will agree to have a demonstration
then the man would give a- i
way so many bottles to the first cub- j
tomers who coifle in. Also he says
he will give the druggist paying for j
one dozen at' $10 "and the balande !
payable nt the end of the demonstra- j
tion. So convincing Is his argument i
ang the fact that he contracts for advertising
space in the local newspaper.
he has succeeded in defrauding
numerous druggists In South Carolina.
The man takes the $10 and that
is the last heard from him. , No ?dverT+sem
crrr TrpphHTS" unr" tS TT~dcTnon-~
strntlon held.
Reports are that the man has worked
Louisiana and Mississippi in the
same fashion, so other states in this
section of the nation may bo on the
"waiting list."
During the sales impostor's visit
and work In Aiken, he succeeded in
signing only one order, hut the druggist
balked, when a cash deposit on
the deal was requested, so this
smooth gyp artist left the city empty
handed. As far as his game in Aiken
in concerned it could be scored as
"no hits . . no runs ... no errors."?
