The terrific battle -of tires brings
out the effectiveness of Gum-Dipping,
the exclusive process employed by the
Firestone Company, which builds ex
tra strength and endurance into the
cord fabric by impregnating and
saturating every fiber of every cord
with rubber.
This special process minimizes
friction apd heat, keeping the tires
comparatively cool under a continu
ous racing strain. [ ‘ <

Insurance Against Mail Order Houses.
Newspapers have long contended
that advertising is insurance against
poor businerr, but few merchants
realize that it is also insurance
against mail order jpiuse campaigns.
That such ia the ca*o, however, was
brought out at a convention of adver
tising managers held in Chicago a
few days ago, at which time the ad-
•vertising manager of one of the larg
est mail order house* in this country
made the fttlowing enlightening state
ment:
“Before launching our advertising
campaign and sending out our cata
logs, we examine the various town
and county newspapers, and where-
ever wc find a lack of advertising by
local merchants in the home town
paper, we immediately launch our
campaign in such district and county,
and our efforts there aVe always suc
cessful.
“Wehnve found from years of ex
perience that the home newspaper i*
a true mirror of the business ability
and aggressiveness of the busin.-ss
men of that particular locality, and
our observation teaches us that no
business can succeed without adver
tising, and therefore, we reap the
benefit of advertising that the local
maichants could derive, and which
they lose by reason of their non-ac
tivity and lack 6f business judgment
and foresight.”
Mai) order houses have made great
inroads into the sales of merchants
ii* i undreds of towns i nd villages
throughout the country — that is,
wherever the merchants have allowed i
them to do so. Advertising is the
remedy. When a merchant buys space
in his local newspaper he L+ buying
double indiranity insurance—insui-
ance against dull times and the mail
order houses.

Featuring Conway Tearle end Anna Nilsaon .
If one point only could be. embasized about “The Greater
Gloiy,” it would be the manner ia which June Mathis, the pro
ducer, has caught the spirit of sw .eping events without forcing
them. Here is tragedy without t .ars, conflict without knives, tha
atmosphere of war without a bat lefield. ’

But “The Greater Glory,” m :de for the grecater glory of the
indust ly, embodies more than that. The holocaust of a war
stricken city—the poignant heart story of one girl caught in* the
swirling eddy of events—and the climactic moments that justify
the superb wirk of as meritorious a cast as has ever been assem
bled for one picture. Through through the “The Greater Gory”

Breaks all Tire Records
a ^ > ■ < .
The 500 Mile Speed Classic at Indianapolis has always been a Battle of Tires. In J 911, Firestone won with fabric
tires at 74-59 miles per hour. In 1920, Firestone won with cord tires at 68.55 miles per hour. In 1925, Firestone
won with Full-Size Gum-Dipped Balloons at the record breaking average speed of 101.1J miles per hour.
In 1926,Firestone again won with Full-Size Gum-Dipped Balloons. The ten cars to finish “in the money” were
all Firestone-equipped. They went the distance without a.single blowout and with but two tire failures—one due
to a puncture and the other to a leaky valve.
Tins performance is even more remarkable w hen you consider the

terrific speeds at which the cars traveled over this fifteen-year-old,
rough brick track.
. Experienced race drivers will not risk their lives or chances
of victory cn any other tires. And m the commercial field, large
truck, motorbus and taxicab fleet operators, who keep careful cost
records are among the big users of Firestone Gum-Dipped Tires.
The City Transportation Co., of Tacoma, Wash., writes: “One
of our 12 buses op Firestone Gum-Dipped Tires has gone over
40,600 miles and still looks good for many miles of extra teArice
For all arount} tire safety and mileage, Firestone cannot be beat.”
From Calumet Motor Coach Co., Hammond, Ind., the following:
“We operate 40 buses all equipped with Gum-Dipped Tires. The '
very low cost per mile on which these tires operate is considerably
less than that of any other make.” Hayes Bus Lines, Columbia, S. C. f
say: “We operate 19 buses equipped with Firestone Gum-Dipped
Tires. A number of these tires have run over 45,0,00 miles without
ever having been removed from the rim.”
The larjgest taxicab companies in the world standardize on Firestone
Gum-Dipped Tires. W. R. Roth w ell. taxicab operator, Detroit, Mich.,
writes: “Two of my Firestone Gum-Dipped Tires have run 76,000
miles.”
Hundreds of thousands of car owners voluntarily testify to 4he
safety, comfort and economy of FiiLI-Size Gum Dipped Balloons.
W. H. Peacock, Birmingham, Ala., testifies: “I have had Firestone
Balloons for thirteen months and they have delivered in that time
24,469 miles.” H. C. Staehle, Minneapolis, Minn.,says: “My Fire
stone Balloons have gone 49,900 miles and are still in good
condition.”
These records of endurance, speed, safety and mileage could only
have been made because of Firestone development of the Gum-
Dipping process which insulates and saturates every fiber of every
cord with rubber, reducing-friction and heat and building greater
strength and endurance in the cords—assuring you at all times—
