Advertising will introduce a commodity or an idea and it will continue to remind folks of its existence, but advertising cannot make people take what they no longer want.

Hotel Adelphia 13th at Chestnut Why the Miller North Broad Storage Standardized on , Goodrich DeLuxe Truck Tires" As the Miller North Broad Storage Company, Philadelphia, remarks itself, before a concern of such capacity could standardize on truck tires for its great fleet, it must be so thoroughly con vinced of the superiority of one make as to admit of no question. To reach that conclusion the Miller North Broad experimented in the long, patient, but sure way. It tried tire make after tire make on truck wheels. Goodrich De Luxe Truck Tires out matched and outclassed them all! Operating a large fleet in a radius of 400 miles and getting from 12,000 to 18,000 miles per tire under tlie severest hauling conditions, the Miller North Broad has daily become moro convinced of the wisdom of its choice. If your truck tires, for any reason, do not deliver, .switch to Goodrich De Luxe. Once you use them, you 11 use no other.
