are sold on a quality basis not on l '; price, although they cost no more than ordinary tires.

Motorists who equip their cars with Lee Tires either puncture-proof or "regular" do not hesitate to pay the regular price for them, because they know that these tires are well worth the money they cost.

Lee Tires, both the puncture-proof and the regular, are built to a high standard a standard that assures the user the maximum amount of uninterrupted service. In South Bend Lee Tires are backed by REAL service, so that when you buy Lee Tires you not only get your money's worth in tires, but you get, in addition, a brand cf service that follows the tire through to the last mile.

SPEED WAGON

"The World's Best!"

If you did not know if from your own experience or observation you could not testify to the truth of that statement, we would not use it. Here is one product that is so outstandingly superior that it knows no real rival no equal. No other truck has done, or can do, its work. None has shown the same stamina or efficiency. None has proven equal to carrying its loads and living as long. It is literally true that this Speed Wagon will carry "a pound or a gallon or a capacity load" between any two points, quicker and cheaper. Its range of highest efficiency its greatest margin of economy over all others is from 500 to 2500 pounds.

"A quarter-ton to a ton-and-a-quarter.

But—inasmuch as it will cover any route with no load, or loaded to full capacity, cheaper than either a flimsy-light, or an excessively heavy truck—it has proven to be the world's most economical carrying unit The majority in favor of the Speed Wagon is over-whelming —as evidenced by the fact that today there are more than 70,000 in use. That's more than of all other makes combined —of similar type or size. Demand is great 3niy way to obtain a Speed Wagon is to order at once Delay means disappointment.
