THE U. S. NOBBY TREAD Where the going is specially heavy with snow, mud or sand, in hilljr country where maximum traction on the road is a factor, no other tire tread yet d vised is quite so effectiv, or so wholly approved by motoring opinion, as the U. S. Nobby Tread. Its very simplicity three rows of diagonal knobs, gripping the roadis the result of all the years of U. S. Rubber experience with every type of road the world over.

STOP and talk to the next man you see with U. S. Tires on his car. Ask him why. Most likely you'll hear an interesting story about his tire experiments before the answer was found. Money wasted. Promises unkept. Trouble on the road humorous to every one except the man who went through it. Finally U. S. Tires. And U. a Tires ever since.

Perhaps it's the experience of U. S. Tire buyers that makes them more emphatic in their preference than ever this" yar. When these men have tried most

everything by the way of staggering bargains", "hurrah discounts", "discontinued lines at- less" and so forth they know what not to get. They want a fresh, live tire. With a good reputation. That's everything it says it is. With the peopie behind it who back it up.

There are 9J U. S. Factory Branches. Your local U. S, Dealer is drawing upon them continually to keep his stocks sized up, completeto give you service. Whenever he gets one or a hundred tires from a U. S. Factory Branch, they are newly made this season's tires. Sold to you at a net price. Full values. Square-dealing. A reputable maker. A reputable dealer. The whole transaction as befits the leadership of the oldest and largest rubber organization in the world.
