Some people imagine that because we sell on Divided Payments we can not sell for less. They forget that when we permit you to pay for your clothes a little at a time you are enabled to leave your money in the bank to draw interest instead of having to take it out and lose the interest. That of itself makes our plan save you money. But, as a matter of fact, our prices themselves are as low and often lower than those of cash stores. Our Chain Store methods of merchandising, our tremendous volume of business and our exclusive buying connection, enable us to price our clothes as low as those of any cash store. Do not take our word for this. Come in and see for yourself. You will find that high quality and low price go hand in hand with courteous service at this out-of-the-or-dinary clothes store.

To, the Man who is Interested in Truck Tire Economy
CAREFUL truck owners are figuring their costs pretty closely these days tire costs along with the others. Its no longer "clap on a new tire and. hang the expense.' At least, not with the owners we come in contact with. Service, wear, traction, cushioning qualities, construe tion are coming to mean more than, they used to, not only to owners but to drivers of motor trucks. And the more they mean, the more we find truck owners and operators turning to the new United States Grainless Rubber Solid Truck Tire.
The tire that overcomes split ting and base'Separation that goes on its way day after day, month after month, wearing down smoothly and uniformly without undue attention and without expense. Handling United States Solid Truck Tires in this city is in keeping with the progressive policy of our concern. Something new something a little in advance of the times is always coming out of the United States Rubber Company. Before ordering a new truck, consult us about the kind of tires to specify.
