ANNOUNCEMENT'

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, MAY 10, 1920.

Indianapolis, Ind. “T purchased six cord tires from your Mr. Paul Parker, which he was using at the time on his own ear. I nnderstiyid Mr. Parker had given these tires a very severe test. "I have used these same tires en my heavy truck for several months, and at the present time am using them on my National pleasure car, and 1 have covered IS,oo<> miles to date on these tires. Indoubt if you will believe me when I say, ‘other tiftm two small cuts you cannot teii that they have ever been used,’ —this assertion 1 can prove by exhibiting these tires now on my car in daily use. “It is remarkable not only from the mileage I hare obtained from these tires, but the comfort enjoyed thru KASY HIDING and absence of trouble. A tire must be near perfection to stand up under tnv hard driving In alt kinds of weather and roads ." (Signed * w t. McLaughlin, McLaughlin Insulating Company. Vicholasville. Kv. ."They have not only improved its riding finalities. but also Us appearance, as evidenced by the uaanv compliments the car has received. * think so well of yonr tires that when 1 get another car J mean to equip ii with Parker Tires." (Signed! .lAS, 1.. SIMPSON. Simpson-Wilis Lumber Cos. Evansville. Ind. “I have used these Urea on a ton truck and must sav they do the business. Reailv I did uot know there was a DIFFKRECE IN RIDING Ql\\ LIT nos in pneumatic tins, but when I changed from another tire to Parker I sure did notice tfeo difference. At first thought the tire not intiaied properly, but it gauged O. K . so it must be the tire that makes RIDING EASY. “Their stnying qualities are better than any tiro that i ha had any experience with. “And are they good looking: Ask any one that has seen them "To appreciate the meaning of SUPER-SIZE they should be compared wittr another tire of the lame size, ‘You’d Re Surprised.’ “I run these tires over country roads all winter, and anv one that has been driving over conn trr roads this winter will know what these tires Were tip against, especially when roads were patched with two inch limestone and would then freeze. “I feel that Parkers are the best buy on the market today." (Signed) ,T. H. HARTLEY. Rural Motor Express. Louisville, Ky. "1 now have a Franklin Sedan equipped with five Parkers. 32x4. 1 firmly believe I will get I.VOOO miles or more out of this sit of tires. “la n Fraukiin equipped with Parkers, you •imply glide—there arc NO BUMPS.’’ (Signedj CHAS. G. THIXTON, Thixton-Mlltet & Cos. Rrazel. Tnd. “We use them on our truck over the worst roads imaginable every day of the year, anti thev are almost like new.

Ind. “11 has been almost a year now since we first put a pair of your Parker Super Size Cord Tires on our Martnon car. and the results have been extremely satisfactory. They have an unusual amount of traction, either on ice, in sand, or in nmd. IT have driven them through the Michigan sand, w hieh U a severe test for their abilitv to give load traction.) “They hold up splendidly in the road w-ear, and I can recommend them to anyone wishing a tire giving long life and freedom from road trouble.” (Signed) FRANK H. SMITH, Dr. Frank Hunter Smith. New Orleans, La “I hare no punctures,■no blowouts, or any other trouble. I mn my car about one thousand miles a month, therefore, this Parker has run about, seven thousand miles, and I expect It to last for len thousand mile* more. “New Orleans has badly paved street* and the Parker Tires should he used more here, as they can stand more abuse than any (ire I over saw; and while it costs more than other Cords, yet I believe it is worth the difference in price." (Signed) U F. COCKER, M. D. Indianapolis. Ind. "I wish to state that I am very well pleased with the performance of the two Parker SuperSize Cord Tires I purchased from you Home time last summer, and that T used them on the rear wheels for more than 1.000 miles and thev look like they haven't been used over 200—that is more than I eau say for any other tire i rver used, and i wish to say that in my opinion they are the best tires on the market today.' (Signed) LAWRENCE WEISHAAR, Glasgow, Ky. "I have two of your Super-Size Cord Tires on Oiy ear rear wheels since last August. Have had no punctures nor trouble of any kind. They now took almost as good ns new tires, after running them dally since they were put on car. P"Tbe.v are EASY RIDING TIRES. I have pur chased two more of the same tires for use as soon is I need them." (Signed) J. W, ACTON, \ Dr.- J. W. Acton. Indianapolis, Ind. "I have been using the Parker Super Size Cord Tires for almost a year, and am well pleased with them. The durability and mileage one gets from thse tires Is enough to convince one of their superiority not mentioning their EASY RIDING qualities. “I am going to use the Parker Super-Size Cord tiro iu the' future, and recommend them to my friends."

Rogers Gap, ILy. "Wh#n a person prices these tire’s they seem unreasonably nigh, but when once used I think any one will readily see then that It is the cheapest tire in the long run. ‘ As the surface of this tire that hits the ground Is very small, many punctures are therefore eliminated. nothing mars the pleasure of the motorist more than tire trouble, and I must say that since ! have purchased the four Parkers I have had aolutely no trouble at all with the tires.’* (Signed) C. C, RAWLIN& Akron. Ind. "They have covered about 3.000 miles of al kind* of roads, and yon -can scarcely tell thai > hey were everffused.
